Agreed. There is always a simpler, quicker resolution to most issues. Unfortunately, even proof is provided, absolutely nothing changes in relation to them resolving the issue for 99% of the people that ask for it and is provided to them. WWJD
Completely baseless. We operated within the laws and statutes since we've been in business. Zero criminal activity. Why do you persist in remaining anonymous? I'll not respond to anyone or anything else unless it's an even playing field. You seem intent on trying to discredit me and or us so no matter what good you find, you're only interested In negative regardless to whether it's true or not. Negative sells better than positive. There are some companies out here that are trying to do right by people that need the help
What is it that you think we're trying to scam? We have legal, legitimate reasons for the communication. We send letters in a legally compliant manner and provide proof when requested. Copy of application, copy of contracts, etc. We don't take on any clients that can't provide them. I see none of that really matters to you either way.
History on 800notes. Claiming to be a “law firm”. Claiming to be “settlement company”. Claiming to be the “legal department”. Claim there is a “formal complaint” against the people they call. Phony threats of service of process. Callers claim to be “independent couriers”. Refusal to validate debts. Threats of wage garnishment. Attempts to collect on payday loans which are unlawful in the state where the debtor is located.

Just looks to me like a garden variety debt scammer, of which most people who visit this site are familiar with.

Just because someone on the phone calling you says you owe a debt does not mean you actually owe it.
If a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt:
1. Demand the person give you his or her name, company name, and address
2. Demand a debt validation letter by US mail. E-mail no good.
3. Do not pay the collection agent or anyone else a dime until the debt is validated
Of course they won’t do this, no scammer ever will, so simply ignore them and block their calls.
If they are bothering you, report them:
http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection (Threatening civil proceedings with no intent to follow through, or threatening criminal process in order to collect a civil debt is a violation of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.) The same goes for endless telephone harassment
Note that the US Supreme Court in the Case of HENSON ET AL. v. SANTANDER CONSUMER USA INC., has recently ruled that the provisions of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act do not apply if the creditor owns the debt in question. As a practical matter this probably won't effect the kinds of scam debt collectors who often show up on 800notes. The scam collectors don't give you any information about themselves so it is impossible to know whether or not they in fact "own" the debt in question. Most do not send debt validation letters and many often say they are collecting for someone else. So, make the complaint anyway if they are bothering you. Let the FTC sort it out.
Also contact your local attorney general
If they continue to bother you, and you know you do not owe any money, tell them that you know this is a debt scam and that you are making a complaint to the police for extortion. Once you get a copy of the police report and they call you again , just read out the file number and the name of the PD or Sheriff’s office involved. Tell them you’ll be glad to send a copy to them at whatever address the jack***es are working out of now.
You'll probably have to yell at them and talk over them. Tell 'em no scammy debt collector is going to push you around.
You have to get tuff with these people because, being akin to thugs, brute force is (metaphorically speaking). the only thing they understand.
