844-257-9988

Called brother even though I don't have his number in any records.  Said it was a legal matter.

Left a message saying they filed an important issue and if I don't know, to call 844-257-9988. They mentioned a case number of 1-046, which in itself sounds fake, generally speaking. Called themselves SomethingStein ad Black. Olstein? Holstein?

Called family member. Left message and made it sound like it was from a law firm when in fact it's just a collection agency out of New York. It's Goldstein & Brock. Their website is: http://www.goldsteinbrock.com/ They are NOT lawyers!!!!

Did you know it is illegal to claim to be an attorney if you are not  AND to give information to a third party??  Contact your state attorney general's office.

Interesting - it looks like a shopping mall.  Also, according to the map, there is another company named Rubin and Yates at that address!

Consumers across the country report that they're getting telephone calls from people trying to collect on loans the consumers never received or on loans they did receive but for amounts they do not owe. Others are receiving calls from people seeking to recover on loans consumers received but where the creditors never authorized the callers to collect for them. So what's the story?

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:

   is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
   refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
   asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
   exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.

If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

   Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

   If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.
   Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
   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 whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft – charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or 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. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.

Also good info at the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau:

These con-artists have been calling my mobile phone once a day, every day for over a month leaving a voicemail for Jerry and referring to themselves as the Law Offices of Goldstein and Brach stating that Jerry must call them about Claim# 1922 or have his Attorney call them. They claim to have Jerry's Social Security Number and need Jerry to call and identify himself and his SS#. Obviously this is a Scam.

They are identity thieves that will steal your info never answer this number

This the same people at are calling my call phone. Saying that they are calling from Goldstein & Brach  and to call them back using case #2941. They have call about 11 times since September 2015. I will not call them back, in the call they do say my first and last name. It sound funny to me.

They are calling requesting money but giving vague information about the debt.

Been receiving calls from this number for almost a month now, looking for somebody by a certain name. I usually don't answer but I decided to  today to put an end to it and to find out what they want. The guy on the other line asked what number I'm calling from and I said you should know since you're the one who called me. He was so rude and said that there's about 100,000 numbers on the list and that I have to give my number so he can take me off the list. When I asked him for his name, what company is he with and what's the purpose of the call - he hung up phone. This is obviously a SCAM! BEWARE!

Actually, it's Goldstein and BROCK

Notice that all the particulars are missing...a good indication they are nothing but criminals masquerading as collectors and even, apparently, as attorneys.

Goldstein and Brock is a collection agency in NY according to their website. However they were calling regarding my daughter referencing a number. Upon calling them back I only got an answering machine. I left my contact info and the reference number they left and requested a call back and have not heard back from them in five days.
