408-426-4351

Voice mail said it was from Stellar recovery Inc ( Debt collector) , it was for some Jessica. Most probably some kind of scam.

The machine voicemail said he was a debt collector and I agree with Yogi that this is a complete scam watch out!!

Our office has received several calls from this number.  Machine voice states Stellar Debt Collection and number to call.  This is a scam.

It never says anything. Most probably a scam!

The caller knew my first name, but hung up after a few seconds.

This number just called my cell phone, and hung up as soon as I picked up, then they called my office, and as soon as i picked up they hung up! So creepy!!

They keep calling my cell, but hang up...very annoying.

got a couple calls from an area code in San Jose CA

Debt Collector Campbell, CA... is just doing scam by either fishing, pursing or whaling on your information

message asking for voice mail

This number called my husband twice in two days but didn't leave a message. Good to know from reading other posts that it's a scam. Also, if we don't know the number we don't answer. Time to block this number.

The had my name but they wouldn't give me any info on the so called debt. When I asked for a statement on the company or the companys name they refused and said they didn't know! Total scam. They just want your info. How can u have a dept but not have any info about it!?!

No debt validation, no debt. It's that simple.

How can I verify whether or not a debt collector is legitimate?
Here are a few warning signs that could signal a debt collection scam:

The debt collector threatens you. Legitimate debt collectors probably won't claim that they'll have you arrested or claim that they or their employees are law enforcement officers.

The debt collector refuses to give you information about your debt or is trying to collect a debt you do not recognize. You have certain rights to ask a debt collector to verify the debt. You can use this sample letter to request this information. Ask for an explanation in writing before you pay.

The debt collector refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number.

The debt collector asks you for sensitive personal financial information. You should never provide anyone with your personal financial information unless you are sure they're legitimate.
If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

Ask the caller for his or her name, company, street address, telephone number, and professional license number. Many states require debt collectors to be licensed. Check the information the caller provides you with your state officials, or the state in which the debt collector holds a license. If the caller refuses or is unable to provide you with information about his company, or if you can’t verify the information he provides, do not give money to the caller or company.

Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." This notice must include:
The amount of the debt
The name of the creditor you owe
A description of certain rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, consider requesting this information in writing or seeking assistance before paying the debt to make sure the debt, and the company, are valid.

Tip: You can consider sending the collector a letter requesting the information by using one of the CFPB's sample letters. You can also submit a complaint to the CFPB or you can contact your state Attorney General’s office.

Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know the company or person you are talking with is a real debt collector. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft such as:
Charging your existing credit cards
Opening new credit card or checking accounts
Writing fraudulent checks
Taking out loans in your name

Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate – but you think the collector may not be – contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.

Report the call. Submit a complaint with the CFPB or get in touch with your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers.

Stop speaking with the caller.If nothing else works and you believe the calls are fraudulent, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files.

Tip: You can use this sample letter to write a letter demanding the debt collector stop contacting you. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.

Tip: If you're having trouble with debt collection, you can submit a complaint with the CFPB online or by calling (855) 411-CFPB (2372).

Pretty sure its this group:  If you call the 408 area code number and the 888 area code number listed below you get the same robo-greeter asking for a 10 digit number that they called you from.  Long history on 800notes.  Continual calling even though the person they want isn't at the number they call.  Rude employees (when you can actually find a live one).  Refusal to send documentation concerning debts.  Just all around difficult people to deal with.

If they call you and you can actually talk to a live human being demand a debt validation letter be sent to you by US mail.  E-mail no good.  If they won't do this, then simply ignore their calls and block them.
