Just got a call from this number--it was a guy with an accent I couldn't place claiming to be from the IRS, that they knew about a letter I had gotten from the IRS (that part was true), that I was being audited, that there was a warrant issued in my name, that I would have to travel to Washington D.C., asked if I thought he was joking, claimed that if I hung up he would have to dispatch a patrol car and have me arrested. At that point I hung up and made myself a sandwich.
As of this writing, an hour later, I am still a free citizen.
This is got to be a joke.....your call is similar to mine. She stated by name and ask that I must call this number 855-366-5231 to identify myself in this civil matter; otherwise I will be served. Some people don't have anything better to do, but create madness and disturbance in people life. THIS GOT TO STOP.
The caller left a VM stating their name was something i forgot now, in the VM she stated that I had better return their call within the hour and she would give me 3 hours to call 855 366 5231, so they could serve papers on me at either my home or place of employment. The state of NC does not use process servers, they use the Sheriff department. and I dont think this company is going to use the Sheriff to bring me some kind of bogus notice.
I noticed something on my credit report about a year ago from a collection company. I called because it just appeared for no reason. I called the number associated with it and was told they purchased a collection of mine from Sprint. I explained that my sprint bill was current and that they must have the incorrect person. She told me the last 4 of my ssn and said it was for sure me. I again explained how my bills were current, what was the number on the account they had, hoping to gather some info from her. She gave me a phone number of my old home phone. I said SPRINT HOME PHONE... she said yes, I closed my home phone number over 15 years ago. and my bill was current. She said the balance was $47.xx and that with fees and penalties the bill was now $1200 and some odd numbers.. I was like you mean to tell me that you have purchased an old collection on an account that was closed over 15 years ago. Good luck collecting and I was going to forward their info the the NC State attorney General if they did not remove the negative information from my credit report. I followed up with a certified letter and imagine that, it disappeared. For some reason IM thinking this is the same losers that have bought this from the other suckers.. more than 15 years old. OMG.. Really!??!! well good luck, im waiting with a bag of ammunition.
RECAP the numbers they call from are 347 298 5411 the number they want you to return to is 855 366 5231
I got a call from first 347-298-5411 saying I was being sued and needed to contact R & J consulting they gave me a case number of BR2374 and told me to call 855-366-5231 when I called they verified info including my current and last 3 address and knew the first 5 of my social after I told them the last 4. they said sprint was suing me for a debt for 2002. said they sent me letters that I never received. but when they asked for my credit card to pay the debt I told them I would not do that over the phone. I googled their name and then their address their website looks good but the address is for a UPS store. tried calling the number on their website and it does not receive incoming calls. check BBB under their name and found 5 complaints and finally found this site and others reporting them as a scam. Thank goodness for the internet and sites like this and thank goodness I did not give them my credit card info. Ripoffs do seem to be getting more sophisticated these days. sounding so official and real. Never give a credit card on the phone is my motto. and always check up on who is calling you before allowing yourself to be taken to the proverbial cleaners.
