Repeated calls from this number.
It's Nelson Watson, a collection agency looking for someone with a different name who does not live here.

Filing complaints with phone company and FCC - suggest you do the same.

Voice mail message from Becky at extension 2285.  No Becky on returning call rather Ralph with heavy New York Accent.  Said he is with the "Pre lidigation department.  Would not answer any questions, just asked over and over who I was.  Said they would continue to call until I gave them all the info they requested.  Jerks.

calls to my phone do not belong to me.
this collection business apparently can't do a google search
on current phone numbers.

We receive calls from Alex Falcon constantly. He calls my parents' house, and I am over 30! He called my estranged mother-in-law even trying to tell her of "the dire situation" I am in.

DAM STEDELMAN CALLED ME THREATENING A LAWSUIT FROM HOME DEPOT IF WE DID NOT TAKE CARE OF THE DEBT WE HAD WITH THEM SEVERAL YEARS AGO. THIS COMPANY CALLED US ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND WANTED ME TO GIVE THEM A CREDIT CARD FOR PAYMENT RIGHT OVER THE PHONE. I DETERMINED THEY WERE FRAUDULANT BECAUSE THE CALLER SAID WE HAD OPENED A "HOUSE" ACCOUNT WITH HOME DEPOT - THEY WOULD NOT DO THAT.  MR. STEDELMAN, WHO CALLED TODAY WAS THREATENING, ACCUSING AND TRYING TO INTIMIDATE ME.  I TOLD HIM WE DID NOT HAVE A DEBT AT HOME DEPOT - HE SARCASTICALLY CALLED ME A LIAR.  

AFTER I HUNG UP ON HIM I CALLED HOME DEPOT, WHO DIRECTED ME TO CITIBANK, WHO HANDLES ALL OF THEIR CARDS (THEY DO NOT SET UP HOUSE ACCOUNTS).  I WAS TRANSFERRED TO THEIR COLLECTIONS DEPARTMENT AND THERE IS NO HOME DEPOT ACCOUNT LISTED IN MY SS# OR MY HUSBAND'S SS#.  THIS COMPANY IS FRAUDULENT.  HE CALLED AGAIN AND ASKED FOR MY HUSBAND - THEN HE CALLED OUR DAUGHTER SAYING THAT WE HAD LISTED HER FOR A REFERENCE AND TRIED TO GET MY HUSBAND'S PHONE NUMBER.  HE IS PROBABLY CALLING EVERYONE IN THE CITY WHO HAS THE SAME LAST NAME.

I belong to the aclu and i wish to open a class action against them in MASSACHUSETTS. if you wish to join please reply to luciferxf@gmail.com

i  hope to hear from you all soon

They leave messages but do not say who they are or what they are calling about just to call them back.

Just got a call from them today and they were looking for my ex husband.  I asked to make sure that I was not involved in whatever they were looking for him about (had no idea it was a debt collection firm till I got home and searched the internet).

At any rate, I gave them my ex's number(s) to reach him.  They told me they would remove my number from the file since we are divorced and obviously we don't live together. He's a deadbeat father anyway so it's no wonder he has collections (this isn't the first one and it won't be the last) up the wazoo!

Most of those annoying people are sitting out front having cigarettes swing in sometime and say hello

I got a call from these pricks, I told them to stop calling me.  They stopped for a while, but now it seems they've started again.

I too have received calls both on my cell and home number and they ask for Suzanne Johnston...I have asked repeatedly for them not to call me and they say they are removing my number, and never do.  The text on my caller ID is 800 910 0884 but I called them back and they answered as Nelson Watkins and Associates.

i keep receiving calls from a toll free number. when i answer, they put me on hold music then hang up.  i called the number back  800-910-4572 and it belongs to nelson, watkins and associates who ever they are

Received a call from a guy asking for my mother. When asked who he was and what he wanted he said i was not permitted to know that. Well i said if you have my unlisted cell phone number than you better damn well have my mom's permission to contact me. He just kept saying he needed for me to get a message to her. I told him not until he told me who he was and why he was calling. Said that they had a reccomendation for my mother in a threatening tone. I told him to shove and hung up. Hit redial and got a voice mail message for Nelson Watson & Associates. Totally shady collection firm!!
