Been getting calls from this number and 626-461-3533 stating they are a collection company. They have a correct debtor and my SS# which was surprising. They informed me that if we don't work out a payment plan they will take me to court and take whatever they can to satisfy the debt. I asked them to mail me information with their company information, they in turn said they could only email it to me. They also claimed they sent me correspondence regarding the debt back in January, of which I did not receive. I have done extensive searches on the internet seeking their company name and phone numbers...which totally came up blank. I also reverse searched the phone numbers which also came up blank. I would think that if they were legit, they would have some sort of public presence. So...I deem this a scam!
Missed called with Unknown caller ID that said only "0". Weird message left that I mostly could not understand but said something about a case or complaint filed against me (riiiiight) and left this phone number (626-470-3681). Sounds fraud-y to me.
After doing some more research it seems this is one of many phone numbers used by the same scam:

Thanks for posting the above info!
My daughter received the same call yesterday but they were looking for me. (I think they try to contact whoever is related to you if they can find their #?) Saying something about how they've tried to contact me repeatedly in regards to a case # & have mailed documents to me with no response. Said if they don't hear back from me or my legal representation, they will move forward with whatever they are trying to do. I've been stressing over this since she forwarded me the voicemail trying to figure out what it could be. I'm going through a divorce so to add this to my list of BS things I have to go through is horrible. Thank goodness I googled the phone number before I called them back! What a bunch of scum bags!

This "Riley, Welland and Associates" CID also calls from 626-386-3475 800notes. Your basic debt scammers. Pretends to be law firm. Sometimes uses CID of AW and Associates. Ignore and block any call from these groups or phone numbers.
