Who called from 5622782220

A Christine left a message and I called back.  She gave me an account number and told me I owed money to an American Disabled Organization since 2012.  The apparent amount I owe is 299.00.  She threatened to send me to court if I didnt send the money.  The address she gave  me to send a check was A1 Dept. of Special Collections P.O. Box 167, Paramount, CA  90723

I did not send any money.  It's a scam!

I receive a phone message from Christina on Tuesday, November 17, 2015 stating that I should return the call from 562-278-2220 concerning an outstanding debt.  I returned the call.  Christina told me that I owed United Handicap Workers $366.40 for 24 unpaid light-bulbs which were by her claims sold to me on Dec. 1, 2012 for $78.42.   United Handicap Workers website show that they when out of business within the last 12 months.  She  also said that I owed American Lifeline Industries $486.69 for trash bags sold to me January 18, 2014 for $69.87.  I never received any notification of un-payment from these companies if Christina was correct that I received the items.  I told her I would check my records and call her on Wed. November 18, 2015.  I called her Wed. and was directed by her to speak to her supervisor Samantha.   Samantha told me that they called me before serving court papers because I had a record of pay my bills on time.  She said that she could reduce my bill of $853.15 for items to $649.95 that they claim I received that were to have cost $148.29.  I offered her $300.00 to cover the cost of the items and late fees if I had received them and failed to pay.  She said no.  She said that they work for A1 Department of Special Collections Long Beach, California.  I when online for a listing of all Collection Services in Long Beach and A1 was not listed on the list of 83 collection services in Long Beach, Calf.  This is a SCAM.  Just check ONLINE
