Got a call from "inspector Bolton" about some debt related to a person who I don't know. Said it was "check fraud" and would report it to the local county authorities (out of state) - not possible legally. Found out the company is Mauconduit Luna. The number they left is traced to some residential address. Not sure how they are doing this. Told them to stop calling.
Inves. Hollinger called me 0n 2-22-2011 to advise me that I owed some loan and that charges for Fraud can be brought against me I advised Mr.Hollinger that i will have to contact him tomorrow and he stated ok then I contacted my Attorney as well as the Sheriff's dept. A record of incident has been reported.
Multiple times over the past couple of weeks I’ve received a phone call from this number from an “investigator” Bolton purporting to be looking out for my best interests and wanting to “work with me” to resolve a matter of fraud and some debt I owe. She goes on to leave me her number with requests that I call her by a certain time “that day” to keep the matter from going further.
The calls come into my home number, sometimes in the morning and sometimes in the early afternoon and her deadlines are always like “4:00 PM” or “5:00 PM”. Like many people who work, I’m not at home from early morning until usually 6 PM or later…I’ve returned her calls in the evening after returning home and ALWAYS get her voice mail. Despite my telling her that I’m not available to take or make personal phone calls at the time of say she calls, the calls continue to come in with the ridiculous time frame for me to respond.
Aside from my mortgage and student loans (all of which are current) I don’t owe anybody anything and I know I’m not involved in any “fraud”. I also know that anytime a debt collector starts using “scary/official sounding” titles and demanding return calls by a certain time of day, you are almost certainly dealing with either 1) a scam artist or 2) an debt collector that cares NOTHING about federal or state laws regarding such matters…in either case, they aren’t people you want to deal with.
My solution was to block their number…if they want to file a civil action against me then they can do so…if not, they can bite my ankle.
I have received calls from a investigator named upchurch...first of all where do they come up with this names. She first called my mother in law, who was freaking out, then they called my cell number and told me that if i had taken a payday loan out and said that I have until 3 o'clock that day to pay it in full or my local authorities were going to come and arrest me for fraud. I was so scared because I had no idea what was going on.. She knew my social security number and everything, and the scariest part was she knew one of my credit card numbers. I immediately canceled that credit card and called my local police department and told them what was happening and that she knew everything about me. where i lived and all my personal information. They are looking over this and going to press charges against this company for making false accusations, please be careful. I never once took out a payday loan especially over the internet im not that stupid. So if some people want to complain about not paying back loans, well they should really see whats in their back yards before they look into others. thank you
Received a call from this dipwad yesterday---very rude, told her I needed proof but she just kept talking and was very condescending!!! She called me again today and left a voice mail that if I didn't call her back today by 4:00 she would turn me over to the officials in my county (which she did know what county I live in) but she was very 'charming' and so 'helpful'. But I will be contacting the authorities with the information and especially after what I've read/seen here. It's sad that there are people like Ms. Bolten out there!
