call came from Ohio, and I let it go to voicemail since I don't know anyone in Ohio. They said they had received a fax complaint against me and they would be serving me at my home or my work, Left a Washington state number 509-620-9010, and a case file number. When I tried to return their call it said the number was not available to receive calls. I have had this cell number for less than a week...smells a little fishy to me!! Never give their company name or even who they might represent. Final words of the message were: "You have been notified".
fraudulent company. they claim that i owe them money but refuse to give information. their # is 506-620-9010 but they ask you to return calls to number listed. other websites show similar comments: DO NOT give them any personal information. total scam!!
This phone number has left me two different messages. The first didn't give any details other than a "complaint was filed". In the previous message they claimed that it was their third attempt to contact me and that failure to contact them would result in them contacting my HR department for course of action, and that I would be ordered to appear.
The thing I find strange is that they've been calling my parents' house, whose number I don't believe I ever listed at my place of employment. I DEFINITELY would have at least listed my personal cell number BEFORE my parents number, and this (509) 620-9010 place has never called my phone...
Total scam. No "complaints" have been filed. This is just scammer-double talk. Basically they are trying to scare money out of you. Ignore and block the calls. Debt collectors don't deal in "complaints"--they collect debts. Same old, same old threats. What's contacting your HR have to do with anything? Just more scare talk.
Just because someone on the phone calling you says you owe a debt does not mean you actually owe it.
If a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt:
1. Demand the person give you his or her name, company name, and address
2. Demand a debt validation letter by US mail. E-mail no good.
3. Do not pay the collection agent or anyone else a dime until the debt is validated
Of course they won’t do this, no scammer ever will, so simply ignore them and block their calls.
If they are bothering you, report them:
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection (Threatening civil proceedings with no intent to follow through, or threatening criminal process in order to collect a civil debt is a violation of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.) The same goes for endless telephone harassment
Also contact your local attorney general
If they continue to bother you, and you know you do not owe any money, tell them that you know this is a debt scam and that you are making a complaint to the police for extortion. Once you get a copy of the police report and they call you again , just read out the file number and the name of the PD or Sheriff’s office involved. Tell them you’ll be glad to send a copy to them at whatever address the jack***es are working out of now.
You'll probably have to yell at them and talk over them. Tell 'em no scammy debt collector is going to push you around.
You have to get tuff with these people because, being akin to thugs, brute force is (metaphorically speaking). the only thing they understand.
They have called me numerous times claiming warrants were being put out since i couldnt pay the debt now... and she was ghetto and rude.. said i owed money from a loan which i was paying on and stopped... and if i couldnt pay her the 510$ ... she was sending federal agents to my residence... i then contacted my local police dept. The officer called this phone number and the women didnt beleive it was a cop calling and kept hanging up on her.. said it was for shoreline llc loan company
