Debt Collector

Low life debt collector using caller id Spoof to make them seem local. They buy old debts they can not legally collect on for pennies on the dollar and try to scare you into paying even if you dont owe

I want to know what company this is because they have been calling family members telling them they are calling for me for a debt that I owe. This company is looking up people who may be related to you and calling them telling stranger your information. I have never gotten a call from this number before. How are they allowed to get away with this?

I just got a call ...read my post. Said their web site is WWW. Privacy defence-360.com.
Said they will protect all my accounts and credit cards up to 250,000.00. Her name was Mary at 877-871-1295. Scam big time!

Update! This number has called my family for the 2nd time now and informed them that they were the IRS . The person they talked to told them that I didn't live at that number and they gave them my number and they  told my family that it is not the number they were given , so instead of calling the number they gave them they
keep calling harassing them. They have never once tried to contact me either by phone or mail.

I received a harassing phone call at my work today from Asset Recovery.  I contacted my student loan lendor approximately two weeks ago to get information on paying on a debt, something i have interest in paying.  While I am modifying my other student loans, this loan that has gone to Asset Recovery is a private student loan.  I have not made any arrangements with Asset as I am working out other things, so I can get to Asset in a few weeks.  I called to get INFORMATION, not so that I would now be harassed at my JOB.  I cannot believe they would harass me at work, I do not want them to contact me again at my job, and if this continues I will have to cease all contact and not bother with this at all.  Let an attorney deal with this.  Unbelievable.

(877)721-9336 belongs the student loan department at "ARS" Asset Recovery Solutions. They only work on Sallie Mae loans appearently. To ensure that this was the correct agency hired to collect on my student loan i called Sallie Mae directly at (888)272-5543. Sallie Mae's number had me put in my social and i was transferred directly to "ARS".  They were indeed the agency hired to collect on 2 of my private loans (totaling over $6000), i requested an email for an offer they made and I settled both loans for a little over $1400. All in all i had an positive outcome.  

1. Call Sallie Mae and make sure this is the agency hired to collect your loans
2. Make sure to get a letter if you are settling your loans

This number has been calling multiple family members about student loans through a computerized message system supposedly offering a reduced payoff. Do not give ss # like I did.  Big scam! They are not native speakers of English. ..

this person called my WORK  asking for me saying its a 'personal matter" left his name JAMES WHITE and number.
I will taking these [***] to court. who would like to join?

I would like to join it's illegal what they are doing I was told.

Keeps on calling me at my job. I have never given anyone my job's phone number. I will report them to the Fcc. Also in spite of the fact that I told them not to call anymore they keep on doing it

Called my dept at work, a number I never gave out.

Calling  me about a family member loan . And then restated it is a personal matter.

This number called me at work several times, contacting me about student loans...seemed to know when my last payment had been made, birthday, last 4 of social...told him I was at work and that I was busy...guy wouldn't take no for an answer started getting pushy asked when I could call back said I wasn't sure...he started getting angry and I told him I had to go and hung up....very upset about it told him not to contact my office again but he seemed to ignore that request....we will see if he calls again.

ME too! They just called my office and were super sketchy. I told them never to contact me again and that they seemed super sketchy. I have NEVER given out my work number to anyone ever, the call came up listed with a local number but the man "Jason" wanted me to call 877-721-9336...I told them I would not be calling and to never contact me again.

Much like the rest of your posts, I have fallen to their debt collection practices.  Protect your social media accounts, do not list your employers information anywhere.  David Pizarro from Asset Debt Recovery Solutions used my LinkedIn profile to find my employer and called.  I was so upset.  They were trying to get me to commit to paying off an old student loan.  I told the collector I was still in school and was not going to pay anything.  I am so over it.

Darius Davis has been calling my cellphone and job repeatedly. Informed them that I would continue to take care of my loans through Navient. Several months later he calls insisting that im not paying the only active loan I've had with Navient. The website and customer service agent confirmed that my account is current and that they do not know who this company or person is. I advise everyone to do their own research, the caller does sound convincing as they have all your personal information, but regardless of the status of your loan its always best to pay the original servicer if possible. The customer service agent told me that Navient would not hire anyone to collect on my loans unless they were in default, in which the US Dept of Education would send me a letter informing me of this. Do not pay these scam artists a penny.

OK, so you talked to this guy several months ago?  Well after that first conversation he was required to do this:

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt.  It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.

So it sounds like you have an excellent FDCPA and possibly a TCPA case.  Have you checked your credit report?  They might have falsely put a ding on it (in which case you have an FCRA case as well).

You need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation, cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (think of it as the best $6.47 you ever invested).  You also need to report them to the proper agencies to which I have provided links to.  Then you need to go out and get a consumer lawyer to sue them on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket) and let them pay you for the harassment.  If everyone did these three things, these crooks would be bankrupt and we would all be the richer for it.  Use these web sites to find an attorney in your state:  http://www.consumeradvocates.org/
