I received a telephone message stating I needed to call 774-221-8770 regarding a restraining order about an outstanding debt. I was to respond immediately for a judgement in court or have my lawyer respond in 24 hours. Called the number, put on hold indefinitely, only to find the number is never answered. Googled the number, to find this website stating this number is a scam. What is this? This call came to my mother's phone in a harassing way. I have NEVER used her number in any business dealings so don't know how they got the number. What should I do?
774-221-8770 called my gf and stated that there was a restraining order against her bank account. Whats fuuny about this is her number is under my name and it is a new number. first things first to anyone reading this, if they call you claiming to be a collections agency always tell them tosend you a letter addressed from the company that they claim to be and that the letter has to be on company letter head with the persons name that you are speaking with and there phone number with ext# the mailing address so that you will be able to either come talk to them in person or mail in the payment. If they get loud with you like they did with my gf it is a scam. Do not give them any information over the phone make them prove that they are who or whom they say they are. By ftc regulations when you the customer asks for a letter from the so called debt collector they have five business days to mail you the requested letter. If they fail to send you the requested information it is a scam. Report them to the better bbb right away and inform your lawyer and make copies or print up copies of your phone bill and seek legal advice.

I have documentation that shows I did in deed pay my account, I have the documentation to prove it. When I tried to explain my case he just kept talking over me so as to try and confuse me. I even told him it was a scam he assured me that it is not and legal action in coming soon! OMG!
