Called me today from Global services- Said they are collecting a debt- threatened to serve me at my job or home-left all of this on voicemail (i saved it) they used to call me from a Florida number, Now they are calling from a local number to my state. The old company would say I owed a pay day loan. referencing my address from 12 years ago. I never have had a pay day loan and if I did twelve years would be beyond the collection limits in NJ...
I called them Friday and asked what the name of the company was and the lady refused to tell me and got angry that I wouldn't give her any info so she hungup, so then I called back again and talked to someone else and he said Albright Clark and Assoc, I said just so you know I've reported you to every agency and that your business is all over google as a scam and I hope you guys are shut down soon stop harassing me and my family!
I am receiving calls from this number 7042099012 claiming to be Inside Global Services. First, I looked it up, doesn't even exist. Second I looked up the number and saw more than one site with this number talking about scams. They leave messages threatening that there is a pending complaint on me to be filed and I need to call immediately to resolve this matter. The caller has a STRONG Jamaican accent. I know it is a scam because I don't have any collections on my credit nor have I received any mail in regards to any collects or "complaints"
They have changed the name they are going by from Albright Clark and Assoc to Inside Global Services. So be aware. I guess they have figured out that people have caught onto them. SCAM
Received the same call from inside Global Services. Spoke to marcy randall and marianne anderson. Asked a few questions and got no answers to questions I asked. Looked them up first and they denied being any other company. Bottom feeders. I lit into one lady and she promptly told me this a recorded line. Great. Even better.
This is a common ploy by criminals masquerading as debt collectors who are attempting to extort money from people by scaring you into believing that you will be criminally charged, go to jail, lose your driver’s license, have wages garnished, be sued, and a variety of other variations on this, all for an alleged or nonexistent debt. One of the tricks they use is to call your work place, friends, or relatives repeatedly in an attempt to shame you into paying. They also use the “process server” ruse who calls and claims he is going to serve you, but then says you could avoid it by calling another number. Please note that process servers do not ever call ahead. That way you can’t dodge them.
Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes. The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.
