I answered and said hello. The person said "my name is Heidi and I am calling to collect a debt" and rattles of a number. I hung up no company was named and who they were calling for was never given.
This number is legitimate. I'm not sure about everyone else's experience, but they called me about a medical debt that I do actually have. Gave me the right bill and reference number that I have on file. Was simply overlooked.
Since you are so knowledgeable, please answer the following questions:
1. Who are they? What is their full, legal name
2. What is their legal address (no box numbers)
3. What is the address of their website?
4. In what states are they licensed?
