This is a 'blocked' number (but thanks to my phone company records I requested (free of charge) and my Caller Log, I can tell you that this is West ASSet Management - a collection agency. They also use numbers: 770-618-1290, 817-363-0000, and 866-663-8311 also. But the 402 number has always been blocked on my Caller ID. Just to let you know who calls from this number - this was as of December 2010 - sorry so late to post this info - I just got my Records from my Phone Company not too long ago.
Got a call this morn and accidently answered it, I have relatives in that area code. She said she was from American Express on a personal matter, I do have an AMEX but everything is fine. Before I verified who I was, I specifically asked her if she was an AMEX employee or was from a different company. She said she was an AMEX employee. I called BS on her and got off about 10-15 expletives before she finally hung up. Now I'm sure they'll be calling forever. DON'T ANSWER!
Yippee, David the Deadbeat's account has passed to yet another collection agency. Message was left from someone claiming to be with AmEx looking for David the Deadbeat. We do not know David the Deadbeat. We had never heard of David the Deadbeat until we started receiving collection agency calls for him about two years ago. We have received calls and messages from several different collection agencies for David the Deadbeat, and once even a pleading message from one of his relatives also sick of being hounded for David the Deadbeat's debt! It's especially aggravating as he has given these debt collectors our home telephone number that we have had for a decade. We use caller ID and have not answered any of the calls from David the Deadbeat's legions of creditors. We occasionally get a quiet break of a few weeks. But, his debts always end up sold to yet another collection agency, and the calls start all over again. We have received over 1,000 calls for David the Deadbeat in the past two years--up to six calls a day from his creditors. David the Deadbeat must owe a LOT of money for these collection agencies to keep calling after over 1,000 no answers. David the Deadbeat should pay our phone bill, since our number gets more calls for him than us! You'd think that the collection agencies would give up on calling this number since it isn't producing any result$$$$. Registering for Do Not Call is apparently a waste of time. Filing Do Not Call violation complaints is obviously a waste of time. The FTC can't keep up with these debt collection agencies and their calling techniques and tactics.
