321-300-9388

Received a call from 321-300-9388 telling me I was listed as a family member of a person who they were trying to contact. They claim to be from "Compliant Services" calling regarding legal documents. They will not disclose the supposed "legal firm" they are calling for. The supervisor said his name is Ben Evans and they are based in Orlando, Florida. Says they do not have a website and acted defensive when I asked questions. They threatened that if I don't give the phone number 1-800-239-5616  to my supposed relative to call (with a reference number) they will be served legal documents. I called my relatives, they knew nothing about it. When I asked to be put on their do not call lidt, I was hung up on. Likely a debt collector trying to sound important. Will spread the word about these scammers.

Similar call rec'd by a relative of mind saying they were looking for me. Strong arm tactics and intimidation.

got the same call  when I called it back  its a magic jack number.....................LOL

Received several.calls from this number in the past week.. finally I answered and they gave me amother number to call with a reference id. Definitive consulting  scam..

I got the same saying they are  looking for me. I have a pre paid phone.

I've gotten several calls saying there are legal complaints against me They gave me a number to call but I didn't call can't figure out what the angle is

The angle is to scare you enough that you'll pay them money for a bogus debt, a debt that's already been paid, or even a debt that is owed - but not to the caller.

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.

So I received a call from them and I did call the 1 800 number and they were really nice and professional and legit actually really helped me out

Received a call from this number.  Was told that complaints had been filed against.  Wanted to give me a phone number to call and get information.  I told the caller to send me written documentation.  Caller hung up.

well the caller has no control over that they actually gave me good information and it ended up helping me alot

You're full of it! You're a SHILL & it's easy to prove it. I simply ask you to provide us with some of that "good information" that they gave you. You won't supply us with one single bit of verifiable information. Nothing!
 You fraudulent/bogus debt collecting Scammers are laughable! You always like to think you're sly. When confronted by someone with any sense at all, you turn tail & run for the hills. The only thing you're good at is hiding.
 Skeff Ett Liv!

It is a magic jack number and they are scammers don't speak with them if you can avoid it. Part of the Joe Lane scam, I had to contact local fraud authorities.
