These statements are all too familiar. I just received the exact same call regarding the exact same scenario pertaining to a returned item from my bank back in 2002. I did however have a check from back then although it must just take these people a couple of strokes on a keyboard to access these things. The lady's name, supposedly who I had talked with was Julie Walker. It was the exact same phone number as well. I actually gave a lady my debit card number and made a payment arrangement with her although after spotting everyone's comments on this web site I called my bank and cancelled out my card. A person try's to do the right thing and pay off an old debt and it turns out to be a grip of people trying to steal from us. Right before Christmas too no less. These people are sick.
I got the same phone call and I actually fell for it. The caller told me I had to pay the amount by the end of the month if not they were going to put a lien on my check or hold my funds from the bank I will admit I was scared so I made a payment arrengment and gave them my debit card number only. The next day I told my best friend and she asked me if I had any documentation of all this and I said no she told me to check my credit report basically do my homework on this company then found this site and right away cancelled my card, now they are still calling me like ten times a day and now they said they are going to report my insufficient fund to the ACH. Now I'm ignoring there phone calls and I will just have to wait and see what happens. And they have different numbers or even call from blocked or unknown..be carefull with these peeps they are up to no good makes me sick!!!!!! Thanks:/
I just received a call from these jokers (Central Portfolio Consulting). When answering the phone the caller started by stating my name, the last four of my social and my current address. They asked me to confirm is it was me and I told them that I wouldn't because I didn't know who they were. After persistently asking them to confirm who they were they hung the phone. Effin phonies. I then called the number back and the same person answered the phone and asked them to slowly state the name of the company. After I got the full name I asked them exactly what they do and the jokers hung up again. I have debt but have direct contact with the companies I owe money to, but it is disturbing that they have the last four of my social and my address. Don't give these idiots jack!!!!
i received a call from 720-588-9868, same address same suite saying I owed a debt and they were going to serve me. Set up a payment plan just to realize I paid this debt off last year! When I call they never answer with the name of the company and put me with a Dave Simmons, which by the way said his name wrong at one time. I closed my account before they had a chance to take any funds out. I had proof the debt was paid for and there trying to tell me the other company has to fax it or theirs nothing they can do! Well I did something..closed that account!
This place is a collection agency not an arbitration form or law firm. This place is located in buffalo, ny on Seneca st. They have another office down the street under a different name but same two owners its called 4 star resolution sometimes they add arbitration on the end. Their are also two more buildings in different parts of Cheektowaga, ny also under different names. They use every illegal tacticthere is they can not sue u or it would have been done long ago. Portfolio consulting group is the worst they tell the employees to use a different name and voice and say that they're fromnational curries and will be serving u at home or your work, then u call in and they give u a different name. All [***]. None of the collector's use their real names. So b warned ur getting ripped off big timeand most of the time the statue of limitations is up. Record all calls and u don't have to tell them and don't tell them that way u can catch them breaking the law and get paid every time they do it.
