Called and claimed to be detective from Global Investigative Services. Told me I was being sued in civil court and needed to speak with an investigator. Gave me this number and a case number. I challenged her on who she was and what her company was. This seemed to catch her off guard. I called the number and gave the case. They confirmed my name, but said they needed to verify my SSN. The number was wrong. They did not pursue it any longer. Suspect they try to intimidate people into giving CC# to pay old debts or something. They gave up pretty quickly when I challenged them and started asking a lot of questions.

Not Me - 10 Oct 2007

I receive about 1 call a year for an ex-husband - this year is the 16th anniversary of our divorce. This company calls every year looking for him - I tell them every year that we've been divorced as long as we have, live in a different state even, and to take my number (which actually belongs to current husband and has for many many years) out of their records. Weird. They always apologize profusely, no problem

A guy called and left a message for a person that hasn't lived in our house for more than 10 years. He said a law suit was going to be filed against that person. He claimed to be a 'Special Investigator." Pretty bad investigator since he didn't know that the person he was calling for has never had our phone number (which we've had for 20 years). Apparently, this investigator is not skilled in tracking down people and used only a very old address.

Caller: Didn't say

Called us and left a message, said it was in regards to two complaints against a relative...and we worked out a settlement! We were so shook up we gave our information to have a draft on our bank, now I'm terrified! They also talked to my sister, had all types of information, but we didn't ask a lot of questions as there were circumstances we didn't want to "rock the boat" on.....

These calls are from a criminal operation by the name of CMC Recovery that's based in Georgia. They also masquerade as working for the a law firm called "Robert Goldstein & Associates" and probably other aliases. As consumer law expert Bud Hibbs notes, there is no such attorney Robert Goldstein & Associates. These people are not only breaking federal debt collection laws, they're also committing numerous other felonies (impersonating law enforcement officials, fraud, impersonating an attorney, extortion, etc.) They are criminals and you should NEVER give them any information about yourself. (If you have given them information, contact local law enforcement and your attorney.) Ignore their calls and report them to authorities. Here's Bud Hibbs' advice on dealing with the CMC/Robert Goldstein:

Remember, the only difference between these CMC/Goldstein callers and thugs on the street is that they mug people over the phone.

I suggest you and everyone else who's received these calls contact your local police, your local FBI office, and that you file a complaint online with the Federal Communications Commission at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/complaints.html (The FCC enforces the federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act.) Also, since this batch of calls originate in Ohio, so you should file a complaint with the Ohio Attorney General by calling 877-244-6446 or going online to http://www.ag.state.oh.us/citizen/consumer/complaints.asp

For those who file a complaint with the authorities, I suggest giving them the weblinks to the several message threads on 800notes.com that concern abuse in the 216 area code by this same group of criminals (CMC Recovery Services, Inc./a.k.a. Robert Goldstein & Associates). Here are the weblinks:

The only way we can stop these people is to pursue them as relentlessly as they pursue victims.
