I've got two hang-up calls from these weenies in the last two days. Caller ID shows "Hawkins, S". Considering I don't know any Hawkins, I figured it was some kind of scam. This number is now on my call blocker.
All of these so called "Debt Collectors" are just scams. They figure if you get bugged and threatened enough that you will pay their claim. A lot of these debts have been paid in the past and some people pay it all over again, even though it was a closed, paid account.
Don't fall for this scam. If you get one of these calls the best thing to do is to ignore it and file a form 1088C, D, or G, on the FCC website, depending on the type of call it was.
We've been getting calls from this number as well... several per week. We have noticed an increase in the amount of telemarketers (we are on the "do not call" list) and random bill collectors using the 903 area codes to disguise their identity so that people will answer their calls. This particular number, when looked up on Google, belongs to http://thirumalahealthcareservices.com/ , located in India! They have no reason to call us! They do not leave a message, just dead air taking up my voice-mail space. I tried to call back using a land line.... got a fast busy signal. I continued a Google search on the number and there are multiple entries from multiple "businesses" that use this same number. Who is this?
I've been getting calls from them too, I always reject the call, and they never leave a voice mail. I did look them up on the net and found the health care services in india as well. They spoofed the number so you would answer the phone. I've gotten calls from a spoofed number in china as well. My number is also on the do not call list, and I get calls from bill collectors looking for someone else, and everything imaginable.
They called and said tgey were Buffalo Financial Co. and they were calling to collect a debt for a doctor and if I didn't set up payment arrangements with them she was gonna send to collecttions
I got the same thing... trying to collect a $45 debt..lol that if I didn't pay today then it would go against my credit score the next day... I just informed the lady that I do not give any payment info over the phone to random numbers! She threatened my credit score again... I just laughed and told her to do whatever she wanted... and I would never have a $45 debt... it would have paid it when the bill came in!
