Ally Financial formerly GMAC Inc, headquartered in Michigan, with their BBB report showing over 100 known locations. I'm sure it's impossible to list their associates, affiliates, and subsidiaries! Some known would be Ocwen Loan Serving and Nationstar
Not sure who the company is, but this is a skip trace call from a collector. Common practice to try and shame people into paying a bill because friends and family are getting calls.

No, it's not a scam at all. Ally Financial is a very prestigious American auto financing coorperation (as well as a bank). I personally have 2 vehicles financed with them and can absolutely verify the above listed number is legit. It is from Ally Financial Bank, FORMERLY KNOWN AS GMAC INC. Hope this clears up any misunderstandings!! ♡
