They don't leave a message at all. I have had a difficult time with staying caught up in bills the last few years, so it probably is something that has gone to collections, but I have no mail or message from them. The only reason I know they have tried calling is because I looked it up reverse phone directory online and came to this site. I just think they will never receive whatever money they want because I have nothing that states what money I owe!!!!
Have not heard from these pathetic bottom-feeding pond scum for more than a week! And now, here they come, UNKNOWN in the caller ID, after the Attorney general's office told them to identify themselves when they call! MY, my, my...surely Portfoolio would not ignore such good legal advice? This was call # 359 since their lawyer Pearson wrote to me that they had "decided to cease collection efforts" on some unverified debt for a credit card from a bank that does not exist. Extortion scam, people, do not engage these vermin, ignore, do not pick up.
Portfolio Recovery - they've been calling using different numbers. I don't have any debt and this is a new number for me so I don't even know if it's actually for me since I never, ever answer if I don't recognize a number.
This company is total scum. They purchase 20 year old credit card debt for pennies and try to harass people into paying up. DO NOT talk to them or for Pete's sake don't enter into any kind of agreement with them. If you want to settle a debt go back to the original debtor. If you agree to pay Protfolio it re-validates the debt since you now have a contract with them - and they will screw you with penalties and interest on a debt you don't legally owe anymore or may have paid off years ago. They LIE. I handle wage garnishments at work so know how these places operate. As an attorney once advised me "tell them to go pound sand".
