I've had a couple calls from them as well, they say they are from the court system in my area, and that I am being subpoenaed into court. This is a collection company that will call anybody with the same name as the person they are collecting against. This was not me. They don't care if they have the right person or not.
These people have called my cell at least twice a day on Tuesdays. They threaten me saying that I am a "person of interest" in an ongoing IRS investigation. I have reported them to the authorities but they won't do anything to stop them. The official suggested to change my number as the only effective option in order to stop them immediately. My problem is that I have had this number for almost 7 years and is my business main line sin I yravel all the time. I am hiring a lawyer to file suit against these guys.
I received a call from 716-807-0490 last night and was scared to death. I had a message stating that I was under investigation and a person of special interest. They said I had an outstanding credit card bill of originally 1200.00 and now with court costs it was 2800.00 and I needed to take care of it immediatly by retaining an attorney. I filed bankruptcy several years ago from my first marriage. The thought of bill collectors never crossed my mind because they never really asked me for money. They just scared me to death and the idea of people calling and harrasing me came back. I had a sick gut feeling and was majorly stressing out. They said this bill just slipped through the cracks. I had my new husband call back, they told him I was going to court and they would come to my work and arrest me. They wanted to take of it for us by letting us only pay 600.00. We were not going to pay any money, but my husband acted like it to see what he would say. The thing is they said they tried to contact me one night and expect me to take of a past due bill overnight. I didn't get anything in the mail or had ever been in contact. I was very scared. my father in law called to give them hell and gave him a good cussing. I am so mad!! they ruined my night. I didn't get to pack for my thanksgiving trip because I was so stressed out. I can't even see straight I am so mad.
