A black woman with a lot of attitude called and left an harassing message about our daughter putting us down as a referral and we needed to contact her IMMEDIATELY to let her know where our daughter could be contacted. Who the hell are these people and what makes them believe they have a right to "order" people to contact them, just because someone put us down as a reference. I kept her voicemail message on my phone and will be contacting our attorney, these collection agents think they have some legal power/right to make harassing and threatening phone calls and they DO NOT. Especially to someone not even associated with the account and unaware we were even used as a reference.
My brother, who lives in Des Moines, IA, yesterday received a call from a Thomas Evchek (?sp) yesterday and a message was left on his VM with the callback number 716-601-6231. He stated that I (or my attorney) should call immediately about a complaint against my tax ID number in my home county. I have called the number back several times and have gone to VM which states he works with Oracle Financial Group and to leave a message and call back number which I have not done. I was suspicious about this so Google searched the number and came to this site. As I suspected, this is a SCAM and I will not be pursuing it any further.
