585-471-6763

Fraud. Saying they tried to send me mail and was not successful -saying they will be taking me to court to do a Wage Garnishment - saying they will be sending someone to serve me on Thursday. They are saying I have a debt (which I don't remember) - I asked them to send me some info and they said they keep sending me stuff in the mail  and  said it was the wrong address. Total scam.

Received a call on home line tonight 585-471-6763. Woman who left message said she was a Legal Courier from Suffolk County, Donna Quinn ad had received a fax order to serve me legal documents at work this week. If I had questions to contact this # for more information. I googled the # and its a landline in Rochester NY. So I called and the name that answered said Tracey Richards, not avail, leave name and number and case #. I left my name but said I don't have a case # and have no idea why your calling. I did not leave a dial back # for me and my # is private so doesn't come up. I have never in my left had so many calls from  this company, they call me at work too. I have no debt at all and no idea what the hell they want. Plus I have never heard of anyone calling to tell you they were going to serve you legal documents. [***] heads, go out and look for child molesters and murders! Leave us innocent people alone! Ridiculous and annoying

Come to my Door And serve papers and your gonna be very sorry your mother ever hatched you !!

Received the same call today, Said they would be serving papers on Monday the 26th. Donna Quinn for Cook county. Only left this number : 585-471-6763. That is how I found this page...... Nothing about what the papers were for or anything, Just called from a private number asking me to call right away.  So I called and the name that answered said Tracey Richards, not avail, leave name and number and case #. I left my name but said I don't have a case # and have no idea why your calling. I am sure this is illegal to harass people like this.

My Son got a call from this number yesterday, told him he owed money from a past credit card, he don't remember having this card. Said they were coming Wed 25th to serve him a suponia he made arrangements to pay it off. Never thinking this might be fraud

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).
