There is something very fishy about these people. I just called them back on a different number 626-851-8253. I simply asked what court houses they worked with and she hung up on me.
I tried again and asked if they could call the inglewood courthouse with me on the phone and she hung up on me. These people are frauds.
I have been getting calls on and off over the past year. Everytime they have called I have sent them a fax with a reciept for the payment to the Inglewood courthouse. I keep asking them to confirm they recieved the fax but they will not call me back or fax me back.
These people must be frauds. I would not suggest giving them any information.
Got a call from this number today from a Mrs. Acosta - said it was important I call back. They did not say why, but after reading this site I'm assuming it's about a traffic ticket I got years ago and am still working on paying. Recently, I called GC Services to find out which tickets I still have on my account. Coincidence this number calls me that same week.
I have been receiving calls for the past few weeks from this number, the GC Services phone number (800-727-5848) and a few other numbers for a ticket that I currently paying on. However, when this "Mr. Mark" calls (early in the morning by the way!), he leaves a message I can barely understand telling me to call 1-800-352-3755. So one day I called 1-800-352-3755 and it was a sex hotline! Ridiculous!
I used to mail checks to the address provided on the GC Services invoice because I didn't feel comfortable giving them my information over the phone which they could never seem to fully verify. But it's better to check with the court about any fees that you owe, even if it has gone to a collection agency.
This is a SCAM call from the collection agency arm of your friendly, dumb as a stick, California Courts for fines collection on a ticket. Here's the SCAM....you pay a ticket, in full, then 2 years later they come back and say you owe the money. Then you are required to show proof you paid. Which I have. I was getting 3 calls a week from these [***]...LA, Pasadena and Houston. They told me they were researching it and to call back in a week. And yup, came back as unpaid. I faxed them proof, cashiers check, signed delivery rcpt and proof of check cashed. Ok....except "they couldn't find the fax".......so I went back to the traffic ticket line, another 4 hours wasted, showed the clerk, another Dumbo, PROOF that this 2 year old ticket, talking on a cellphone (yeah, a real crime...whatever...)Had been PAID! So he slowly saundrrs over to the GS services deask...and whatdoyaknow...It was paid!! He said they would never call again. EXCEPT.....they still call!!! Are these people stupid or what?!!? I am about redy to lodge a complaint with a judge and sue them for harrasement.....just for Sport!!! Its a stupid $160 ticket!!! All PAID!! I know they are hoping to catch any fool in in California to pay twice. This State is sooooooo Screwed UP!!!
