Call was from Dyck O Neal, who is a debt collection company, but no idea how reputable they are. They have been sending us letters and calling 2-3 times a day for almost 2 years. We did actually foreclose on a home that they are supposedly collecting on, but they are trying to collect on a debt that is not valid. You can't collect on purchase money loans in AZ (even equity lines). They don't seem to get it.
Can this Harassment be stopped..HOW? is it legal? Who are they? -What happened to me: first the ph # showed up on caller ID 972-661-3744 the was made to my Mother's ph #, she just got a new land line phone & # two wks ago, we have the same last name, she answered a person asked for Me, she said that she doesn't live here, they said they had a msg for Me, My Mother then asked, what is the msg, "they" said it was a personal matter, then hung up? I sold my home approx 1 yr ago in 05/2010 as a short sale w/the bal owed forgiven. I no longer have a mortgage.
My husband and I have been getting calls from these people on our cell phones asking for his sister. We haven't spoken to her in over 12 years and she certainly does not have our cell numbers. They keep saying it is for debt collection. I've asked them to remove our numbers, but don't know if that will work. My questions is: How the heck did they get our cell numbers? The sister in law certianly doesn't have them. The only common thing is our name and her maiden name. But when they call looking for her, they ask for her by her married name.
