I received a call this morning at home from this number asking for my mother by her name. My mother has never been at this number. I called the number back and got someone named Shari. When I questioned her about the call, she asked if I could get a number to my mother. She gave me the number 866-583-0814, which according to some other posts, is the same number. She said it was regarding a pending file and she gave me a number. She then told me that she could not give me any more info as she was bound by federal law. My thought was, if that is the case, then you would know that my mother has not lived with me in almost twenty years. I then had to ask what company this was as it was never given to me. She told me CRA. I asked her what CRA was, and she told me "a legal processing office" and then she hung up. Sounds to me a little weird if she hung up immediately. Be careful.
I just recieved a call from 415-513-5915. A woman was on the phone and wanted me to give her my name. I knew then something was not right so I asked who she was and she refused to reply. She all of a sudden started yelling of the phone about a company called Previdion and a loan that was taken out in 2006. I advose the caller that I am a Law Enforcement Officer and to stop yelling at me. She comtinued to reply about the loan even after I told her that I had no such loan with that company in 2006. The caller then stated,"You will pay this loan off or else." I stated to the caller that I will do no such thing until MY questions are answered. She then hung up. I will be reporting this to the Federal Trade Commision ASAP. DO NOT give any information out! Tell them to send you some documentation.
Got a call on my cell phone for my husband, with whom I am currently seperated and goign through divorce, AND who has NEVER been associated in anyway to my cell number...he has always had his own numbers.
The caller was female, and even though my voicemail clearly indicates that it is a phone connected with myself and my son...I do not mention my soon to be ex-husband's name on my voicemail message. She said her name quite fast (sounds like Liz Chevian???)so it was hard to understand, she said the message was for my husband but only mentioned him by first name (odd). The message said that he has a very serious situation here in her office and she needs to either go over it with him or whoever is currently representing him and that he needs to contact her immeduately at 866-584-0926.
Very odd - she doesnt list the company she is from OR my husband's last name!
I just recieved a call from these folks. They left a message that said "MR. Smith, I am not sure if you know how important this is, but we need you to contact us as soon as possible. please use this file # *****" They did not elaborate on what "this is" or why it was so important. I began thinking, where would they have gotten my phone number and other information for mr? I have been laid off for a few months now and have been emailing my resume to everyone on craigslist that had a job opportunity. I have found that most of them arer bogus posts and I wonder if this company CRA is somehow invovled? Who knows, just a thought.
