These jerks are trying to collect a debt that is in dispute with TRANS UNION.. I actually spoke with a woman at Portfolio Recovery and told her that Trans Union is investigating and she say well just pay it now and if its in error we will refund your money.. YEAH RIGHT! SCAMMERS..
Called my cell phone.....something about a 10 year old debt of $74????? Told her I had no idea what she was talking about and hung up while she was in mid sentence......felt damn good!!!!!
I just got a call from this number about outstanding car debt. I have NO car debt. My cars have been paid off for years. The caller was EXTREMELY rude and insisted that I was wrong. I think I would know if I had a car loan or any other kind of loan.
I thought there was a law stating that these phone solicitor's were not allowed to call people to harass them. When you tell them that this person whom they called is not at this phone number, they will not stop, they insist on talking to that named person, even if that person is not you. Someone should get the law loop holes fixed. What are our monies going to, surely not what or who they should be. Can anyone help with this? Let me know who to call (a real person, not a recording).

Calls made to a cell phone by a Debt Collector, using any automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial or prerecorded voice (including texting) where there is no prior express permission, are potentially a violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA"). There are statutorily prescribed damages of $500 for each such call. The damages per call can be increased to $1,500 if the Debt Collector's conduct is shown to be wilfull or knowing.
