Thank you for the information Big Lee! They have been calling my cell and landline for 2 weeks up to 10 times per day! Same stories as above. I am going to contact the CFPB in hopes that the more complaints they receive, they can stop these idiots from irritating the crap out of all of us over false accusations!
I called the Alabama Attorney General's office and they said there was nothing they could from their end but to call the Federal Trade Commision. I called the FTC and they directed me to the CFPB, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I filed a complaint with them and given them the information I had. Hopefully they can stop these people from scamming innocent people out of their hard-earned money. Take care and God bless..
This number calls my home daily and each time there is a recording stating a returned check and wages would be garnished im 24 hours. I press 1 to speak to someone every time and usually get a very mumbled voice that says the name of a company I can't ever understand. They tell me to wait as they access my account. I usually tell them to stop calling and hang up.
So how does calling back or answering unknown calls do you any good? Block them, don't call unknowns back is a good rule of thumb. Why? You should NOT call back unknown names/numbers, that is one way scammers know they have reached a working line that is attached to a live person who is curious enough to call back unknown numbers. That info is shared and you end up with more calls. Be Smart , Be Safe!
I receive usually one phone call a day from this number. No one is on the other end and when I call back, I get a message that a voice mailbox is full.
I finally called back & got a human today and they are threatening to garnish my husbands wages over an alleged check that they will give no information about. My husband is a retired Air Force veteran of 20 years and has nothing outstanding at all, or he would not have been allowed to separate from the military. Aside from the fact that we are not crooks! How do I get these people to stop calling me? Better yet, how did they even get my number & not my husband's??
They first left a message that my bank had a return check and within 24 hours they begin legal action. We finally spoke with someone last night. He stated that is was a returned check for Winn-Dixie from 1997. Get real people!!! Once we told them No, that we weren't going to agree to pay them, he would no longer talk to us stating it would be turned over for garnishment. Today they have called twice so far with the same robot message as before. These people need to get a life!
