Yes, I am getting these calls. But I haven't had a land line phone for years. Just got one a couple of months ago and no one knows my number. But I keep getting calls for the person that had this number before me. Bank mortgae people calling, credit card people , Dr. Offices. Just all kinds of people calling asking for the couple that had this number before. Evidently phone com. didn't let number stay vacant very long before they reassigned it. I got all the other calls stopped. Now just this one. I could get my phone number changed, but then have to go thru all of that again. Or I could remove my phone and go back to not having land line. Don't really need it. Use my cell phone all the time.
I get a call from these fools everyday! They told me that I had a tickets from nasty East Cleveland which is the poorest city in Cleveland,Ohio. They told me I had tickets for 07 and 08! I'm like really? They are from portable speeding cam's. Then they said I had another one from last year from which I never recived notices from. They have the plate numbers and everything. So I sent them a money order for $140 and called them and told them the money was in the mail and they wouldn't charge a extra $100. Needless to say they called back months later saying I still owe them $100 they recived it in the mail a week too late. I asked them what was the purpose of calling you and telling to you the information about the money order if you still were going to charge me the extra $100 and also why didn't the young lady tell me that when I callled to give her the information? I asked to listen to the tape of the conversation and they said they couldn't do that I had to go online to listen to it. I went on their website and there is nothing of a sort on there that you can listen to the recording. So I will be calling stupid poor East Cleveland mayor to fight this. They are a poor city who is trying to get money out of people!
I had a call from them last night. Bing'd the number this morning and saw the posts about the courts, municipality, warrants, etc. I just paid a fine last week for my husband's speeding ticket from a year ago (whoops!) that had turned into a warrant, again whoops - thank goodness he didn't get pulled over again. I am going to ignore it because I know my case is handled due to the release I got in the mail.
I am guessing they get your information by researching court records.
