______________________
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
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.
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.
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.
I rec'd a call from this number 2 days in a row saying the same thing. Its a scam. If I have legal action against me they would have my ss number and my address so they can send a certified letter to me.
I have gotten a call from this number To say and I different one from a few months ago that I don't remover at this time saying that I had gotten some sort of payday loan online and that I owe them some 900 dollars and I need to pay it now or go to court and face wage garnishment. Than when I say I don't think this is a legitimate debt they go on to say that they cam make it easy and since it is so far pass due that they can help me settle the debt and just get it over with for something around 260 dollars. They read back to me my name, address and email address but could not verify my social. Now I understand that it is fairly easy to get the above mentioned information, but still. But I'm also wondering if someone could have actually used my identity to take something against my name. Highly unlikely, I know. But still has me just a little unnerved. I told them to go ahead and take me to court because I'm not paying them a damn done. So if someone could at least she'd a little light on this for me just to ease my mind. Thank you very much
