Same situation here. This so called Maria Gomez has made several threatening phone calls directly to our office admin. Gomez claims our office admin person made a commitment with Telstar back in 2012. Complete fabrication. For whatever they do, Telstar's services are completely out of our market and there is no way in hell we would have agreed to anything on the phone. Nothing but fraud.
I bought a funeral home in 8-2011. Three years later I got a bill from the older name of the funeral home. They recorded me in 2014 but I asked for a copy of the contract on the recording. Telstar sent me a bill this year and said I verbally contracted with them. I asked for a copy of a contract again and they sent me a renewal that was never signed. I tore that lady a new [***] and today I got a collections from the. I did file a complaint with the FTC and NY attorney general. Dont know if it will do anything.
I sure PRAY that no one falls for this scam. We have been dealing with her for well over a year now. Just got another nasty call today. She faxed us the most illiterate letter I've ever seen from her "collections" agency recently. My 3 year old nephew could type up a better letter with more proper grammar than that. What a joke! Now I'm just a smart as with her on the phone. It's actually kind of fun. She asked for me and I told her she didn't work here anymore. She was shocked b/c "she said she was the owner!" I never said anything like that. In fact I told her I had nothing to do with the decision making and when they recorded me, they modified the ENTIRE conversation to make all my responses line up (almost) perfectly. You could hear the clicks that didn't belong where they cut the tape. That really is a lot of work to scam people. That tells me enough people fall for it, that it keeps them going financially on this scam. So sad!
