looks like they call EVERYONE with the name they are looking for, then when you call try and determine if they called the right person. If you dont pay your debts, its probably you. If you know you are good, call and find out if its actually you. Don't volunteer any info,let them ask you the questions. Calls will stop. They asked me if I lived at a certain address previously and gave me last 4 of a social security number to see if it was the right person.

They called my wife today, Same thing (PAF OR PAS) threatening she would be served papers for court. When I callled back they were very rude said they had all these fees that they were going to charge me for court costs, filing, etc....When I asked what this was for they said they sent me papers (which I never got) and I was being sued. They wouldn't tell me for what and said "you will be served within 48 hours" I even asked them to E-Mail me any paperwork so I could research it and was told "NO".. I'm glad I found this info on here and now know that they are a F#^%ING PIECE OF SH^T company..I will be filing a complaint

got a call from a male at Devon McCain's office with instruction to call back to this number

the call TO me was from area code 877

so THEY used toll free number but I don't have toll free number to call back on?  and 714 is NOT LOCAL for me

Urgent message left same as most above. Sounds like a scam. At best it's just poor approach to collecting on  old info.

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.>

I answered the phone to hear a recording urging me to call them back because they left several messages.

Caller left voice message saying it's from tas ? services and that have tried to contact several times before and to call back today. first time I get the call from this number

I have received numerous telephone calls from Premium Assest Services. They went as far as contacting my job and giving personal information to my Human Resources Dept. I was unsure of what to do and the threatening phone calls and harrassment,  I authorized payment in fear of further legal actions. After wondering why I was unable to get a letter in the mail and simply an email. Today (the day before money is due to be taken out) I received yet another phone call, but this time the caller ID was another unknown number similiar to my telephone number at work. The woman reminded me of payment being withdrawn. It seemed strange and now after doing some research, I too believe this is a scam and are violating laws.

Got a call from that number today. Left a message saying they were PAS and had called several times and must speak with me immediately. They have never called before because then they would be listed under B.S. Caller for the I.D. I do not intend to call them back. Thanks for posting the info on here about this company because now I know not to answer.

Of course, they're actually debt collectors. And ALSO, they're actually sleazebags who will lie and cheat and harass and intimidate to get you scared enough to give them some money--even if you don't owe it.

I came home from work and had two message stating we were send papers in the mail and they have a claim number against my son then they added my husband. We have never recieved any mail and no one knows of any claim. They stated we had to call back today or else.......Supposidily the mans name is Don Terry and his direct line is 714 415 3925. I think they need to stop harrassing people and get a life.

TAS Services called here said they tried reaching me several times. LIE..only time!

My girlfriend is dealing with the same issue. told her not to give any personal info. They are being rude, threatening her and demanding payment today. Told her to contact the credit card company and find out who they sold it to. shje is in the process of calling the third company that purchased it.....
