Shows up on landline as Toll Free Call.  Said something about a billing issue, but I have no idea who they are. You can't hardly understand whoever the heck was talking.

Schumacher Clinical Partners

scammer IMHO they asked for SSAN and credit card information

Caller said it was from Schumacher Clinical something (couldn't understand them) and said it was about a billing issue.  I owe no one anything, so I didn't bother to return the call.

Its a recording telling you to call some company about a billing issue - i have NO billing issues

Medical billing  & NO not a scam call!  Wish they would slow down so we can understand them!

Same as others. auto message from shumaker clinical billing looking for payments.

Called me. No message left. Never heard of them and haven't been to an emergency room or hospital in years. I looked up the name. Yes this is a scam!!

It appears they do third party collections which means they are covered under the FDCPA.

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and (this is the important part) that they have the legal right to collect it.  You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid. 

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.

You can stop the calls permanently by sending one of the following letters and then following the rest of the advice:

You will need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation (by law they have to go back to the original creditor to prove you owe the debt), cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (this will be the best money that you have ever invested).  Also send it first class mail in case no one will sign for it.  Make a notation of that fact at the bottom of the letter.  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 that will probably take the case on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket up front):  http://www.consumeradvocates.org/

First, you should make a complaint at this Federal Agency, and while there you should also read up on how debt collection is supposed to work as well as what your rights in this matter are: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

They called saying I won a vacation.

Called and didn't leave a message. If it was important they should have left a message.

Robocall from Schumaker. No reason for the call, no other identifying information.

Scam but there getting better at it.

scammer spammer

Hung up after 2 rings.

medical debt collector. No scam. Pay your bills

At 9 AM? That you Mr. President?.. Nope. Not answering.

Guess you are one of those scammers too. You guys suck!

Calls everyday around 8:58pm Does not leave message. I do not answer calls I do not recognize. It is a shame that they target a lot of senior citizens. May God forgive them but make them pay for everyone they take advantage of.
