Looks like they do skip tracing, foe debt collectors.

They just called my work trying to verify my birthdate and other information with a colleague. She said she wasn't human resources, put them on hold and came into my office to tell me. I refused to give any information and said all my creditors already had my current information and with all the identity theft and fraud going on I refused to give any information. She stated in a snooty voice that she would make a note that I refused to provide any information. After reading through posts here I will report them to the AG listed in one posting.

1-815-380-9678 called my sister asking about my business which she is not even connected to this business. I have no idea how they got her number. They wouldn't give her any other information.

These people claim to be verifying data for other companies.  They are doing that for collection purposes.  This is how they describe themselves: "VeriFacts is providing location services for a company you already do business with. This company has provided us permission to confirm your residential address or employment information."  So basically the original company you did business with can't reach you, so they outsourced your account to them.  They call you, your employer, and any other person under the sun to find you, so they can get their money for the company.  Verifacts calls from so many numbers, you will need to block the 815 area code to maybe get them all.  Better yet, just don't answer.  You know when they are calling on a "recorded line" there is something fishy going on.

That happened to me today, lady named April. What outcome can I expect if you please?

English - demanded I state my named and told me verifax is part of the credit reporting buteaus

My employer called stating they had received something from Verifax wanting to confirm my employment and income. My employer asked if I knew anything about it. Of course I did not. I'm glad my employer called me to verify before they responded. There was not a signed authorization from me, so they knew it was suspicious.

I received a call at work from verifacts. She called my work which i do not give out my information ever. She started to give me info they have on file and i told her i do not know who they ae and don't ever call back here again

Person called asking about my job, if I work full time, my DOB, and my address! I confirmed NOTHING and told her I had to call her back and that I was at my job. And she provided me with a call back number and hung up

I just got the same phone called and told the lady not to call my job and I was no interested. Something to do with financial banking jobs.

I received a call this morning from Verifacts/ Verifax didn't know who they were trying to verify my employment then when I asked them who had them call they said they just try to update information for banks and schools so I started questioning her she then ask for the address to my job I said no I don't feel comfortable telling you anything she said ok I will say you declined to have info updated at this time I said ok thanks bye. I called the number back and told her do not call my phone anymore and I will be filing a complaint with the better business bureau. I hope she gets the message loud and clear.

Did I ever hear back from her again? I just received a call today

Can we not tell them how they're giving themselves away?

It seems that the credit bureau hard pulls might be covered under the FCRA.  Since they are not technically debt collectors, I don’t know if what they are doing would be covered under the FDCPA.

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.

A lady named Lena Parker just called my work and left a number our HR to call back after she spoke with our Administrator and so I called it and was asked to verify the last four of my SS and my DOB and I said if you already have it why would you need me to give it to you and after a short debate I verified and asked her what her company was about. She explained that a business that I had conducted business with asked them to verify my employment and when I asked her which one she declined to answer and said that she would submit a contact request and they would get an hold of me. Well, we shall see. But I think I'm going to call the state attorney general's office because I have gone thru Identity Theft and it ain't no joke trying to fix what they did.

And yet you gave her your SS and DOB without actually knowing who she was?

person called my job asking me questions. verifying my address.  said she was with verifax.  twice i asked who she was verifying for and she said she had limited information.  i said i dont want calls at work and she asked if there was another # to call and I said no they can send me anything via the mail.  feels like a scam.  she did give any reason that the call was for.
