I have to wonder why an allegedly “legitimate “business would need so many phone numbers to call out on?

Looks like they get sued a lot:

Including one by the US resulting in a payment of over $1 million: https://www.ftc.gov/sites/default/files/docum ... ctiondecree.pdf

Looks like they are predisposed to breaking the law: http://yourcreditrx.blogspot.com/2013/10/unit ... a-v-credit.html
Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes. The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.
Read up on your rights here, get template letters to send and also make a complaint at this government site: http://www.consumerfinance.gov/
Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

This number calls 5 or 6 times a day 7 days a week. The latest they have called was 10 p.m. it is a debt collection agency. I downloaded an app called CM security. This app allows me to block any number I want. This agency is definitely on the block list...
