I to have been getting many phone calls from ADSF collections asking that I pay $80 for product that I received in 2009 from Advanced Fit Labs Health Products. They wanted payment over the phone to stop a report to the credit bureaus. At first I did not remember making any purchases and told the person that I would need further proof that I owed the money. The person told me to research it and he would call back in several days. Tonight I got another call from ADSF. I told them that from my research I found this web site and told the guy that he and ADSF was part of a scam and since Advance Fit Labs knew my mailing address they could send me a bill in the mail. Again the guy threaten my credit report and I responded back that his threat did not work.
You are getting paid with fraudulent funds, scammed from people that had a trust in offers made. You have a blind dedication to an employer that scams others. Thanks for your advise, here is some for you, "get another job!"
i actually had a completely different experience with this company. the gentleman i spoke to was very informative, very polite and professional. i am not gonna say the same for advanced fitness laboratories.....it is apparent that they dont run the same business model. i paid the debt, my credit card company confirmed the validity of the transaction and i have not received a call since. not a penny more than the 60 dollars was taken. and i DID do the trial offer and i DID make a mistake when canceling and so they had every right to pursue the payment. i hope this does not reflect negatively against ADSF, against the other outfit maybe......but ADSF was very helpful and i am happy to have rectified the issue

If you are (indeed) a "legitimate" third party debt collector (as you claim you are), working on behalf of your "Client", and have all the "info" regarding the debt, then your employer will have NO problem with allowing you to provide a consumer with the correct name and mailing address of the collection agency you work for when they ask for it, affording them the opportunity to dispute the debt you are dunning them for, as required by Federal and State law....right? Furthermore, you are not going to threaten to "ruin" someone's credit over an unvalidated debt....are you? If you are, then you are violating FDCPA laws...as are your Associates, who, according to the mounting complaints on this and other websites on the internet regarding the questionable debt collection practices of this agency.
