I got a call from this same number. So guy whi said his name was Collin Riveria and that he was a check fraud investigator and had pending felony charges that he was going to process through my state (Texas) AG. Lmao. Yeah ok go for it dumba$$. I did some deep research and investigation myself and found that it was actually some half a$$ law firm that buys charged off credit accounts for pennies on the owed debt amt and then tries to scare the debtor in to paying the charged off debt. They use legal jargon they learn from some online paralegal school and try and threaten the payment out of people. These charged off debts can be 5-10 years old. Most of the debts are from payday loans that were renigged on and the check that was used for the payday loan didnt clear the loanee bank. The next time they call anyone tell them to go ahead and file charges. No one has been arrested for a bad debt since the early 1800s. Its just not done. Its actually a long civil suit process that most all debt collectors dont want to mess with. If you honestly write a check in good faith and something unforseen happens financially and you are not able to honor the check the most anyone can do is give ur check to your county hot check dept for collection and even that has strict requirements.
Got a message this morning from an 888-511-0599 number saying that I have committed check fraud and that sherriffs would be coming to my home today to detain me and be sure any minors were out of the way and taken care of. Really??!! I have a clean record and may have debt, mostly student loans, BUT I have never committed check fraud! I called this 312 number and I asked the lady that they stop harassing me. She said I need your information and bank info..yea right! I said no, you obviously have all my info already. I'll give you my name and you can look it all up. She refused so I laughed and hung up. SMH. I googled both the name and number. Nothing found.
I keep getting messages on our business phone about a returned item from our bank and it states this is not a solicitation and they expect a response. The phone number is 312-239-6510. I never called since we don't have a returned item from our bank and read what others have said and they are trying to obtain personal information. Go get a legit job like everyone else!
Seems the calls are getting more frequent. Got a message from someone obviously reading off a script threatening filing charges with the county for check fraud across state lines??!! NOT....definitely a scam. Don't even bother calling back.
Got a call from 312-239-6510 saying it would be in my best interest to respond in 24hrs. That they had "paper work" waiting to be processed. All he said was his name was Mr.Rodrigues from the "Investigations Dept" never to what, or from where. They had the last 4 digits to my SS and my b-date. VERY CREEPY!!!!
