8005451256

I have never had a Macy's card.  I have shopped there occasionally and used my other credit cards.  Their daily calls to my home at 8 am trying to tell me I have a credit card problem are an outrageous intrusion on my privacy.  Until this corporate practice ceases, I hope each reader will join me in simply boycotting Macy's, period.

Rude foreign speaking man.  As to speak to a member of my family that was not home.  Would not tell me anything, just that it was an important business matter.

I believe this is scam. I received same call and stated if I paid the over due balance, they will waive the late fee and ask for my checking account#. I asked for the number to call back. It's the 1800-545-1256. However, Macy website has different#. So the next day, I went to Macy store to verify my balance. I was told my balance is 0. So, I believe it must be a scam.

Got a call on "a personal business matter" with a message to call to 1-800-545-1256. Searched the net and found out it's "macy's collection". The problem is I do not have a balance on Macy's card since I haven't used it for years. The bad news is that since I haven't used it for so long, I can't find it.

Ok, I've read tons of these posts - I just got an email from an amy.b.snyder@macys.com thanking me for my fraud inquiry.

I don't have a Macy's card and never made a fraud inquiry!  I would say this is a scam.

I agree with you fully did not know Macy's has 2 different credit firms American Express and National Bank got one bill from Macy's which I paid off then I got another bill from the other bank delinquent 2 day's  keep gotten calls with no messages but same number so I never picked up phone.
Will be closing Macy's Account also.

Macy's is in violation of the fair debt collections act. They are legally not allowed to harass you. You can file a compliant with the FTC it's actually very easy to do online and only takes a few min

Tis' the season to paper parking lots! I've never had a card with Macys but that didn't keep them calling my business line every day for two months this summer.  

Something like: "macys products exploit child labor", on the windshields of 500 cars on black friday might make an adequate point.  

Don't forget to do your part this week. If you can't do 500, do 100.  

Thanks!

yes, it's Macy's .... not sure why they couldn't just tell me that!

It's Macy's, for their credit card. I was a former employee with Macy's and had a Macy's card. Unfortunately someone managed to open another account with my social so they called to talk to the man that opened the card. Supposedly it's taken care of.

who was this that called?

An "Amber Vargo"
called for my dad and said it was a "personal business matter" and said that our state (Maryland) disallowed her from saying anything more. Sounds like some kind of scam to me. Why wouldn't she say what business she is from?

"that our state (Maryland) disallowed her from saying anything more"  This sounds like a debt scammer.  Federal law covers them and then state law.  They are not allowed to discuss the debt, but they are supposed to identify themselves and they are required to identify the name of their company if requested:
§ 804.  Acquisition of location information  [15 USC 1692b]

Any debt collector communicating with any person other than the consumer for the purpose of acquiring location information about the consumer shall --

(1) identify himself, state that he is confirming or correcting location information concerning the consumer, and, only if expressly requested, identify his employer;

Further, is there a reason why these people could not locate your dad?  Many times debt scammers will call family, friends and neighbors to create panic and embarrassment to make the intended victim easier to scare into paying their extortion money.

iwork for macys they are calling ten times a day  called them back they were fishing for personal information do not give out go in store in person to pay  dont think its really macys scammers

when icalled this number they wanted all my personal info i asked them you must have it already if you are macy credit as you claim  this sounds fishy

I m receiving the same call saying it’s a Personal business matter that I need to call right away thank goodness my sister told me it’s a scam this is crazy to all you people that have charge cards never give your number to anyone for any charge card I feel so sorry for the elderly,  The scam artist or pathetic I have to figure out a way to report this

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/
