got a call from them today. left an automated message to call an 855 (new toll free exchange) number.
when i called, some woman answered, and wouldn't tell me what the call was in reference to unless i identified myself as the person they were looking for....which i did not.
so, i have no real info either. boo-urns. however, i smell a "debt collector" scam.
I called the number back - 416 756 9985, and was able to get a recorded message.
The name of this "company" is "Action Collection & Receivables Management" [http://www.actioncollections.com/] which is listed with the BBB (http://www.bbb.org/kitchener/business-reviews ... onto-on-1178691), and has a B- rating.
I personally, do not have ANYTHING outstanding on my credit report (got a $240,000 mortgage & 2x$5000 CCs without a job, so...trust me, both myself & my financial institution have seen my credit history.
Do you research before you give then ANY information.
ok, so I was wrong (I have too much time on my hands).
I called the _real_ ACRM (link from previous post). I confirmed that they do NOT have an out-going number of 416 756 9985; they only call from 416-503-9633. so, my first post is wrong. the company calling from 416-756-9985 is not the REAL ACRM, and is a scam.
