833-486-0452

Office of AARS has a file that directly relates to me, but didn't state my name in voicemail. if this company is a collections agency they have the wrong number. I don't have any debt that is in collections. or any legal matters that need addressed

A woman answered this number.  She refused to answer my questions directly. She wouldn’t tell me the nature of her business.  She was pugnacious and argumentative. She then intentionally disconnected the call on me.

Received a call on my work cell that is not a published number except for work associations and said they had my ss # in a notice. This # does not have any personal info on me. SPAM.

called stating I had an account with my name that was critical for me to contact them since it "directly" involves me. Urgent matter. RUDE!!

These calls are fraudulent. I do not have debt with any collection agency and this guy left some vague message that he was from a law firm trying to find my location. It's scary how bold these people are. This is a scam. Do Not Fall For It!

The fake process server/location finder extortion SCAM usually consists of the following:

They mention that they have received a Fax document or some sort of complaint and that there is a pending legal matter or action about to filed against you to create the sense of urgency. They tell you that they are a “process server” and cannot give you the particulars of the case since the file is sealed. This is simply ruse to get you to call another number (often with a made-up case number) where they will ask for money to “make it go away” (this is actually the same place, they work in teams, one pretending to be the server, and the other usually pretends to be a lawyer). They threaten to serve you at home or at work. They tell you that if they serve you at work then they will need a supervisor, security, or HR person there as a witness, hoping that will cause you to panic over the alleged embarrassment of being served at work. They also tell you that you will need two forms of ID. None of which is true. Process servers do not ever call ahead so that you can dodge them. Process servers get paid to serve papers, nothing else. They certainly are not going to pass up a paycheck by telling you that you can avoid being served, they are not going to give you an extra day or even a few hours to get a “stop order”. Court documents are time sensitive and must be served within a certain amount of time. Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there really is a lawsuit that has been filed against you.

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, email, or text (postmarked in the case of a letter) within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. Unless they have communicated it to you verbally at the beginning of your conversation. It also must contain the “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 communication 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. If and when you get that communication you should immediately send that debt validation letter by certified, return receipt mail.

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 complaints with the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

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

Called..left voicemail....threatening ..says they have a file & case against me..it's a scam..Ignore them..it's a fraudulent call..

Caller said they had "made several attempts to reach out to me" (they have not) and "have not heard back". Stated "we still have the option to discuss this matter with you directly".  No explanation of why they were calling.  The caller sounded disgusted.

called and left a voicemail stating they have made sevaral attempts to contact me, which untrue.  I received these same calls around a month ago and same voicemail but different contact name, claiming to send in documents to file a suit against me.  Went to the county courthouse to verify if any claims were against me and none were found.

Two messages were left to press one or to call this number back as they were handling an issue for me. My name was not mentioned or what issue he was handling for me.

Joe called me from "AARS". I figured it was a scam because he never said my name and said they have tried to contact me multiple times. This is the first time I've gotten a call though so this number is a scam and I pay my bills on time. He tries to sound so serious too haha! Like almost annoyed.

Joe from AARS, calling to follow up for a matter their are handling for me.  Have no idea who these people are.

Received a call from a Joe and a Kevin Allen claiming they needed to verify my assests and if I didn't call back they would turn me over to a local attorney. I called back told them I didn't owe anyone and if they stepped on my property I would have them arrested. He replied you made my job easy and hung up on me.  I owe no one. The company they provide AARS does not exist when you Google it. ARS is a Debt Collector, but that is not the company that any of the numbers they have called from go to.

Got a call from “Joe” doing a follow up from our first call (I’ve never spoken to these people) would like me to call back regarding a matter we are handing, advising to call the 833-486-0462.
