800-290-1065

We keep receiving recorded phone calls from William Fields.  We have requested numerous times they not call this number, but to no avail have we succeeded.  We have children that answer this phone and would prefer they not deal with these callers.  They have threatened many times when we refuse to
allow them access to staff.  They have refused to remove this number.  When ask “what part of remove
this number from your records do you not understand” they get really angry and start threatening again.

Tim Cooper left a very vulgar message for my husband on his work VM. My husband and I decided to call him back and make his day. I am still laughing at the things my husband said to him. OKAY so look, if you do owe money to a payday loan and that company does not take you to small claims to garnish your wages for the debt you owe, then no other company can. I worked for a company who bought write off accounts from other loan companies. The company you owed money to wrote your debt off. Then they sell your account for pennies. Then [***] like "Tim Cooper" call you and threaten your freedom and job security. I take this phone call, answer it and expose these uneducated [***] for the 8.00$ an hour they make. They think by spitting out fake "case" numbers and the last for of your SS# and the company you work for that they will scare you into paying. I have been around the block too many times to know what can happen. I just hope he calls again, I want to have some fun!

I also just filed a BBB complaint. They have an F rating...hmmm

I have been getting calls from this number on a regular basis with a very loud recording from William Fields referencing a claim # - I called the 800 number back and spoke with Jeffery and told him that the pay day loan he was talking about was fraudulent. I also told him that I have a police report open on identity theft from a little while back that I can fax to him. He never provide a fax number, instead he then told me "to watch my tone and that I need to respect my elders." At that point I knew he was not a professional and that this may be a scam. I hung up and they continue to call. So I decided to look this business up and I found this site and it has calmed my nerves a bit. Thank you for all of the info shared. I hope mine is helpful as well.

sI get a call from this number all the time. They are scammers. So all their calls go straight to voicemail.

I started getting these calls yesterday from "PDL Group" from a person named Timothy Orman, called my cell phone twice yesterday and since I didn't recognize the number I let it go to VM.
This morning the receptionist at my job came and told me that someone called for me demanding to speak with me because when they select my ext, they only get my VM. She said she told them I wasn't available and to leave a message, I would call them back. He then went on to ask to be transferred to my payroll department..... ARE YOU SERIOUS?????? WHO DOES THAT?????? I am so glad I decided to look them up and came across this page! I have no doubt this person will call back and when he does, I will have a few choice words for him!

PDL recovery group called said i had 2 days or they were turning me into my local county office. this is bs right?

This William Fields has a recording that makes it sound like he is working with the Attorney General.  He isnt.  Its a way a chop shop collector collects a write off debt.  He is not filing anything.  He calls me all the time with threats.  Contact the Attorney Generals office and file a complaint.  He is a mouse.

They call me everyday from different area codes.  They make it sound like they are from an Attorneys office. They are not.  I am contacting out loca police dept to see that I can do to stop William so called Fields.

I have been receiving calls from these idiots daily at my job and on my cell phone. I sent them a cease and desist and also sent them a copy of the Nevada Statutes that they are violating. For all of you in Nevada if they are not licensed they are breaking the law and can be prosecuted themselves. Here are some of the statutes I included in my cease and desist. Lets see if this works

NRS 649.370 Violation of federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.  A violation of any provision of the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1682 et seq., or any regulation adopted pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to be a violation of this chapter.

Receive calls asking me to call this 800-290-1065 number back (automated message from Ms. Reynolds). But the caller ID says (716) 831-2565. They called my mother's cell phone for over 6 months before they figured out it wasn't mine. When you answer the phone, there's no one there. WEIRD. When you send it to voicemail, you get a pre-recorded message with a Reference Number. I just ignore them.

7162428355 I was called by this number by some woman. Who claimed my bank was lying to me. Which led to a phone call with some woman wanting my social. Then these calls from William Fields from the number in this message told me to call the number you guys are reporting.

Kept getting calls repeatedly from this number. Finally one day I returned the call and never was spoken to so rudely. I flipped out and asked them to mail the documents to me. The representative repeated my social security number and adddres. Then I got a 'director' on the phone and finally she said that she could email me them.

I also contacted a place where I took a payday loan last year, and it's paid off. Reading this information, I'm happy I'm researching it and not just paying to get them to stop calling.

They leave numerous threatening calls, lol. First off. if were true? Would a State individual leave a threatening "unknown" number on their message. I have asked several times for a fax number. The guy is rude, unprofessional and an idiot. they are fleas of the chop shop collection world. How sad???? Probably loser baby daddys..

Hey, I keep getting calls, and I finally returned one to a Mr. Shreve something. He is rude, only repeats my SS#. He is a fraud. Have u found out any info? I need your help, I am filing charges.

I rejected this call because I was sitting in the office and they called me 3 times with no message. So i googled the number to find out that these people calling at a scam. I am on the no call list and my number has been recently updated because I was married and changed my name

Also uses local # 716-242-8355

I received two calls from a lady stating her name is Stacy and she is calling from PTL and that she needs me to clal her back at 800-290-1065 ext 107. Then she called me on my work number. She left the same message. She is saying that I owe money to PD cash. They need tos top calling me at work before I lose my job.

They are calling you at your jobs to frighten you. Then you'll pay. If they threaten to call payroll to garnish you, they can't. Garnishment is done through the court. The court will send they request to the payroll/HR dept. It will include the court case number, the amount, and who the payee is. Your employer will notify you when the garnishment is to start. You should have time to object if you want.
Go to www.ftc.gov  consumer protection tab. If you tell them to NOT call you at work they are supposed to stop. Every time after that is a violation and you may be able to collect. Have the receptionist, whoever, track the calls. Your business maybe able to collect for harrassment.
