877-453-9086

calls and asks for office manager, then asks for me, when asked if a message can be taken all thats given is a name and number, when asked if its personal she hangs up

Some sort of law firm saying I was being served by someone I'd never heard of.

Called my cell - said they were calling for Jesse Juarez and someone would be at their door or place of employment to serve them with a legal complaint.  I'm not this person but someone by that name lives on Escalon avenue in Fresno.  Said to contact a lawyer - called twice in just a few minutes.

Called with our information stating they were a litigation firm for a credit card company

Harassing me at work 2-3 times a day

Calling from 305-999-7809 leaving the number877-453-9086

Called place of work. Stated she was calling from the Process Server's office. Asked for policy on serving employee on premesis. Then stated the person could "call 1-877 number to set up a time/date to be served" instead of at work. Didn't make sense, so I questioned it. "Coastline & Associates". Attourney's office? "No. We are a processor." Told them I would not be relaying a 1-877# message to employee, but she can be legally served on premesis (I don't expect anyone to show up tomorrow). I've never heard of someone getting to chose whether or not to be served "court papers"-try again.

Called and left a message that they were sending police to my place of employment and to call number back with a reference no. Then proceeded to call my daughter who lives in a different state and told her they were sending police to her house ! I called number back and a man answered with a plain "hello" I asked for Lucy because that's who I was told to ask for!! Man was confused and said no Lucy, so I repeated the number that I was told to call.   Immediately he knew who Lucy was!! So Lucy gets on phone after a very long time and tries to get my social ect by this time I'd had enough asked her what it was concerning and boy oh boy.....she was screaming at me telling me she wasn't allowed to tell me unless I gave her social! After this,, the call was ended by me with a few choice words!

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).

We gotta call from this number yesterday twice with a case # and a ref.#.  They were asking for payment on a past due account and told us that we would go to court if it is not paid by the next day..They called today asking if we made a deposit yet but from a different # of Brian Mosley..I was not sure if it is really from a collection company or just somebody trying to get something..any ideas please?

This Brian guy was extremely rude to me..I think he is the only person answering this number but with a mock automated system set up... it wasn't even me they were trying to reach. A number was left in a message from a different person that seemed very legitimate and serious with a reference number, so as a courtesy i called to let them know they had the wrong person and number so the message that was left did not reach its intended recipient and to please remove my number from their calling list. Whole thing seemed fishy. Saying papers were going to be served. I would not have called back but it seemed urgent and wanted to inform them of their mistake. Then I was slammed with accusations and insults by this Brian dude. Seems like a complete scam!! Don't trust this at all!!

Did you bother to read Alfalfa's post?  It gives you a lot of information.

This "Brain Mosley" persona also appears on other numbers on 800notes.  Uses a CID of PDI and CNA as well as Coastline.

Most likely this group:

Coastline Financial Group LLC
Website of Company: cfgroupandassociates.com  (Not currently operating)
Long history on 800notes,  of threats of criminal prosecution, impersonating local agencies, threats of civil process,--the whole works-.   For some reason they are still in business.  They call from a variety of numbers.

In any event:

Just because someone on the phone calling you says you owe a debt does not mean you actually owe it.

If a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt:

1.    Demand the person give you his or her name, company name, and address
2.     Demand a debt validation letter by US mail.  E-mail no good.
3.    Do not pay  the collection agent or anyone else a  dime until the debt is validated

Of course they won’t do this, no scammer ever will, so simply ignore them and block their calls.

If they are bothering you, report them:

http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection (Threatening civil proceedings with no intent to follow through, or threatening criminal process in order to collect a civil debt is a  violation of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.)  The same goes for endless telephone harassment

Also contact your local attorney general

If they continue to bother you,  and you know you do not owe any money, tell them that you know this is  a debt scam and that you are making a complaint to the police for extortion.  Once you get a copy of the police report and they call you again , just read out the  file number and the name of the PD or Sheriff’s office involved.   Tell them you’ll be glad to send a copy to them at whatever address the jack***es are working out of now.

You'll probably have to yell at them and talk over them.  Tell 'em  no scammy debt collector is going to push you around.

You have to get tuff with these people because,  being akin to thugs, brute force is (metaphorically speaking).   the only thing they understand.
