This company has called me 3 times in the last month looking for a person that rented the house that I have lived in now for 5 years. She hasn't lived here for over 6 years. Being an upright citizen and not knowing who these scammers were, I called them back 2 times insisting I do not know this woman and please remove my number from the list. They continue to call, and yes they do sound like frankly uneducated people of color so I am not sure if the company is legit or not, you would think they would at least be able to hire people who speak proper english in this economy but who knows. This past time the man got very snotty with me but gave me his name-- Mike Profitt. He seems to be the supervisor although I doubt he can spell supervisor.
Anyway, if you call the FTC to lodge a complaint they will investigate. They also said the phone company may be able to block calls from them if they persist.
Knowing my rights as a consumer helps, if this debt is over 6 years old and I bet it was or they wouldn't have MY address for her, it is uncollectable at this point so they can't be too reputable. I bet ms ghetto tina is the one that put the comment on there about the bank account frozen. The fact that half the words were spelled incorrectly was my first clue.
I TOO HAVE SPOKE TO MS. TINA. I HAVE BEEN PAYING THIS FOR LIKE 8 MONTHS. IS THIS COMPANY LEGIT OR NOT. I FEEL SO STUPID THAT I DID NOT DO RESEARCH. BUT BECAUSE I AM TRYING TO CLEAR UP MY CREDIT DUE TO JOB SEARCH ETC, WHAT SHOULD I DO. i HAVE ONE MORE PAYMENT TO MAKE AND SOMEONE ELSE CALLED ME IN REGARDS TO THE SAME ACCOUNT THEY HAVE BEEN COLLECTING ON (DISCOVER). HELP ME PLEASE. I AM SO DISTRAUGHT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I WAS SO FOCUS ON JUST CLEARING UP MY DEBT AND ITS NOT UNTIL NOW I DECIDED TO DO RESEARCH NOW THAT I HAVE ACCESS TO A COMPUTER THAT I AM SEEING THESE BLOGS.
