This people calls me 7 or 8 times a day. I have called them back and I get the message that "this number is not in use". Who is this kind of people that can call you but you can not call them back???? What kind of business is this one if they have one????
800-605-5429 is the number for Leading Edge Recovery Services. If you call them at their home office at 800-663-4707, you can instruct them to remove your name from their dialer and they must conform.
I have been divorced from my 1st husband for 22 years, they called my current husband's cell phone # (only had 1 1/2 years) never give this number out to businesses & these people asked for me by my previous married name & would not answer any quesitons from my husband. Same thing got this number not working & the phone company won't tell you who this phone # belongs to.
I received a call from 800-605-5429 on 10/29/2007. The caller identified himself as a representative of Leading Edge. He claimed to be collecting a credit card debt for Citibank which is unknown to me. A Google search provided:

GET 7-8 PHONES CALLS PER DAY FROM 8006085429 - HE SAYS "THIS IS RUBIN SCHWARTZ, AND IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO RETURN MY CALL"..... WHO IS THIS PITA????
We got a call from this number last night and the first person said she was from Sears and we owe money. I said I was happy to make a payment if she would give me my acct number. She said by law she can give me her file number. Still didnt click that something was fishy. When we got to the 3rd representative, he started yelling at me because I wouldnt release my financial info. He said "he gets paid even if I dont make a payment". I offered a payment arrangement but he said unless I give up all my financial information he cant set it up. I said I was willing to make payments but thats it, he hung up on me. He did me a favor
been called several times asking for my mother.They asked if I could give here a message , when I asked who this was and concerning,response was its a private matter.
This "person" calls several times a day. Since I know no one with a toll free number I let the machine answer the call. This last time he identified himself as Rubin Schwartz (no company). He never says who he's calling for and since there are several people with different last names living at this address, I have no idea who to give the message to. The only outstanding debt connected to my name is a workers comp claim that is in litigation (my ex employer refuses to pay medical bills for an on the job injury). Therefore MESSAGE DELETED.
got same stupid calls from someone named Craig Jebson. i called back and got some woman who said she was from "Living Edge". I told her i was being harassed and wanted the calls to stop. They did stop for about a week, now i just got another call. Anyway to report the harrassment?
I get a call from this or a similar number approximately once a week. (For some reason the number mysertiously disapears from my call log, I didn't even think to google it until I just got a call while on the computer. I will log these from now on.) When I answer there is never anyone at the other end. This call came at 8:06 PM 1/87/2007
Awesome job with the call back number..Thanks!!! The first thing the rude SOB asked is where did I get this number and I told them the AG. Funny though, when I called, my number is suppose to be unknown but the rude SOB knew my number right away...If only people like us who deal with these SOB's had the same type of technology...Never dealt with such rude jerks in my life. I urge people to take whatever legal action possible to stop this type of harassment...
I've been receiving collection calls looking for some person I don't know for about four-five months now. This was a new number calling, didn't leave any info, didn't say anything when I answered the phone, and when I called back simply stated that the phone number wasn't in use. Thanks so much for the info on who to call! I called, the person answering provided their name, but no company name, and when I explained I believed their company had called me three times that day, instantly asked if I was this other person... guess it was the right number. She apologized and stated that they'd remove me immediately. I've also filed the number with the federal donocall list, but I'm not sure if that will help since they believe they have business with the person on the other end of the line (wish I could find out if this person is still giving out my phone number as their own)!
Thank you so much for providing a number that someone can actually call to tell those freaks to stop calling. They have been a big pain in the a**. I don't know how they got my number and if this is a collection agency, it doesn't make much sense because my credit does not reflect anything of the nature that I owe anyone for anything. This is really irritating!
