434-533-9042

this is the third day in a row that 4345339042 has called my cell phone. when these annoying people call they dont leave a message either. is there a purpose to these f@#%*ing calls?

I received a call both on the 5th and 6th of March from this number.  Which happens to be my work phone...   They speak very quickly so I am not 100% sure, but they said that they were a debt collection agency and to call 866-384-2097 and it sounded like Bendegroup perhaps.

I do not owe any money aside from my regularly paid debt...so I am only assuuming this is the same racket as was calling me from 240-210-7058 in the November timeframe.  My lawyer advised me to hang up on these people and report them to my state's Better Business as well as any governmental agency they recommended me to.  They are crooks at the least.

This is a company out of Virgina called Penta Group.

Keeps calling but hangs up after 3-4 rings

I've had a new cell phone for over 1 year.  And over 1 year this Penta Financial group shamelessly use robo call technique to keep calling my number (at least 3 times per week) leaving a message for another person I do not know.  Judging from other people's posting, they use this practice quite widely, suppose even if the yield is 1 out of 1000, they are still ahead.  Using Robo call is practically no cost to them, but they have managed to bother 999 people that have nothing to do with the debt they are trying to collect.

If you look at FTC's web site regarding practices these collectors are NOT supposed to engage in, it includes HARASSMENT, which includes using phone calls to annoy people.  This is for people that actually owes money that they are trying to collect from, since I do not even owe any money, their practice is definitely illegal.

The number keeps calling and calling for someone I have never heard of.  What can I do to stop the calls.

They are they are hackers people do not worry. This  is underinvestigation, they are stealing you personal info in the voice messages.  Regards usns.

Received two broken voicemails w/ no details.  Sounds very much like a phone phshing scheme to me.
