I keep getting calls for someone that does not live here. On the answering machine sometimes they leave an 800 number which leads to another number that has a recording about $4.95. I hang up as I am not paying $4.95 to try and get them to stop calling here. I have had visitors and these people will call two or three times within 30 minutes. This is getting to be pure harassment.
Apparently, according to other websites, this is a ollection agency for Columbia House. People are reporting that Columbia House is trying to collect debts dating back to 2002.
Please be advised that by the Statute of Limitations (SOL) in most states this debt is not even collectible. Don't send them a dime. You can even SUE THEM if they put ANYTHING on your credit report for a mysterious time barred debt. Write them and ask them to provide you with a copy of your signature/proof and let them know that the debt is out if your state's Statute of Limitations. Then send them a ceast and desist letter. THEY WILL GO AWAY VERY QUICKLY!
I started about a mouth ago getting calls from this place saying I have a past do bill with figher hunt. So I call figher an ask if I have a open acout ,but I know I didn't have one because I don't I have with 4 kids. when I asked if I have an open acout they said no they coundn't find anything with my name or information. But they keep calling saying they want $40 dollars from me .
Debt collectors today work on commission in a recession. You don't need much education for the job and some find themselves in a dead end. You almost have feel sorry for them because we all have to eat.
My husband and I had our phone number changed and unlisted 5 years ago. Since getting this new number, we keep getting calls from collection agencies for a person by the name of Dominick Morono, who obviously had this phone number before us and obviously didn't pay any of his bills. We keep telling them they this is our number now and we have no idea who Dominic Morono is but they keep calling. We have told them not to call ever again but they still call. Today they have called twice. We are considering this harassment at this point.
