Got a call on my cellular phone from this "unknown" number at 8:35am (Sunday) and missed it. Called back; got a brief message that stated the call may be monitored - then, Justin at Transworld Systems answered and said he was looking for someone who knows Tammy Malone. Told him I don't know her. Justin was nice and apologized for the call, stated that he would remove me from the call list which may take up to two days to realize. Looked up the name and it is a collection agency; www.transworldsystems.com
Very interesting to hear this is Transworld Systems, since I actually spoke to them last night. They called and asked for my teenage daughter, and I spoke to them. It is regarding an old dental bill that I thought had been paid, so I requested written verification of the debt - which, if you are familiar with the FDCPA, once written verification is requested they are to stop calling to allow you time to receive and review the verification. Somehow, I don't think it takes twelve hours to receive mail... Anyway, I didn't recognize this number (it was a different number that called last night, 704-315-6429), so I didn't answer; and they hung up before the machine picked up.
This number, 704 8370995, 7043156429, and 7049945624, keep calling and looking for Jessica. We have spoken to 5 people asking to be taken off the calling list. We don't even know the Jessica that they are looking for.
I have received several calls from this number, each time asking for a different person. This is my office number where I work (at a public school). I have been at this number for 2 years, but I do not know any of the people they ask about. I believe someone has just given a random telephone number (mine) a number was required. I will forward this number to the school district technology director so he can follow up on this. I want this to STOP!
This is what the voice mail states:
This call is from the CDE ( this is CBE I believe)- group a debt collector please return my call at (866) 910-3135. I actually received the voice mail from 5159547688.
The other number is from the 704-837-0343 that has called numerous times after I told the caller I was not the person they were looking for. However, I still receive calls from them.
They call me on Sunday morning, sunday afternoon, sunday night, saturday morning, saturday night, monday, tues, wed, thurs and fridays all day long, sometimes back to back. I pick up an automated person says "HELLO" and then it hangs up.
