844-416-7133

Called me for 2 weeks, finally I answer and they tell me to call somewhere else with a BS ref #.  Talking about I'm in danger of missing court.

they call  from this same number saying going to miss court date bs # if you have a court they do not call they send you papers i call the court and there nothing it a scam be carefull just want your money and they make up accounts

They called me from (410) 662-3481, but it blocks return calls. You can hear other callers in the background. She became frightened by my asking any questions regarding it.

Called my old feeble mother in another State and told her if I don't call back within 15 minutes they will issue a warrant for my arrest.  BS

Just got a call from a local number (504-617-4068) telling me of a civil suit from this number 844-417-7133 with a reference number of 15-414-01.  I got scammed last year from a Baltimore phone number and believe this is the same outfit.  But this time they called my cell phone number rather than house number.

Received a call from 231-408-3287 it is a local number where I live. Was told that there was a civil suit against me but he had no info about it. He then asked if I would call the legal department about it and gave me the number 844-416-7133. When you call there is nothing there.  I have no pressing matters or outstanding debts.

A relative received a phone call from a person at 844-416-7133 who stated that another relative of mine was going to receive a summons for a court appearance if they did not pay a very old credit card debt (about 20 years ago?), and provided a case number, which is presumably for internal use only (similar format as previous commenter:  XX-XXX-XXX).  I called the number and spoke with Mr Jerry Daniels, extension 310, who stated that his company, Sage Lincoln (with offices worldwide, but he is located in NY), provided very detailed information about the relative and the supposed debt, all without verifying my identity.  He even knew the relative's employer from 20 years ago.  Anytime I called back and spoke to someone other than Daniels, I would be transferred to him (there is also someone named Kevin that answered the phone).  Daniels stated that the debt was purchased from the credit card company by a group of investors whom he could not reveal.  He said we had 3 days to decide what to do about the debt, we could settle out of court or go to court.  He stated that his company would not receive the money and assured me that they are federally regulated (aren't we all).  I contacted the credit card company, but they couldn't verify info (I wasn't associated with the account), and the relative who owned the account is not available.  I contacted the FTC to see if they received any complaints about this company/phone number but they were unable at this time (seems most complaints I found online began to appear on 9 June 2015, so this is probably a very new scam); but the FTC representative said it sounds like a scam.  I asked Daniels if Sage Lincoln had a website and he said they did not.  I looked them up on the Better Business Bureau website, but they have no record of the company name or phone number.  I did a thorough Google search but I couldn't find any traces of a company called "Sage Lincoln" online, but since they sounded so much like a company called "Lincoln Financial Advisors - Sagemark Consulting", I contacted them; they said they were not affiliated with them and said it sounds like a scam also; I warned them that there may be a group out there using a name similar to theirs in order to mislead people.  I called Sage Lincoln back to request a mailing address; the first person I spoke with wouldn't give it to me without me giving them a case number first (seems odd) - once I provided it he transferred me to Daniels instead of giving me address.  Daniels said the mailing address is 3281 East Gausti Road, 7th Floor, Ontario, California, 91761.  I contacted the property management for the building and they stated that they didn't have a tenant going by "Sage Lincoln", but there were 3 businesses on that floor:  a law firm that conducts meetings there, designers, and property management.  I contacted the law firm and they said they were not associated with Sage Lincoln; I contacted the property management and they said that they too receive scam phone calls from Sage Lincoln which may have a mailbox on that floor.  I asked again if it was a scam and they said yes.  I didn't bother contacting the third company.  This evening I spoke to the relative who is supposed to receive the summons and they confirmed that they did have a credit card from the company that Daniels provided, but it was resolved many years ago.  Though I was able to verify several details that they provided about my relative, I could not verify any of the information Sage Lincoln gave to me about their company.  So I filed a complaint with the US Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Would you happen to have the number of the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? I'm having the same problem with them and have already sent them 300 from a past debt of 9 years ago and saying I missed a court date and I should get a lawyer, but when I tried calling the number it wouldn't go through and keeps giving me excuses about why they haven't sent me my receipts. They say I still owe them 1500. Jennifer Tatum is who I always talk to.

it is also Sage Lincoln Ledigation #844-416-7133 on Guasti Rd ontario ca.7th floor

I strongly suggest you NOT send any money to these people. They probably don't actually have the right to collect any debts. There are ways for people to find names of people with outstanding debt, then the unscrupulous ones try to use that information to trick people out of money. If someone is actually about to be taken to court they would have to be served papers and that's not what's happening here. They just call you up and threaten, trying to scare you. SCAM!

very helpful, THANK YOU!

I did get Call from my local area code of 503 and they said they were out of Hawaii and I needed to call 844-746-1880. The guy said his name was James Oneil and I needed to receive court papers. Then he was ready to accept payment over the phone. I'm glad I found this web page.      :)        Another company tried this before.

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt.  It also must contains “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 letter 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.
Read up on your rights here, get template letters to send and also make a complaint at this government site:  http://www.consumerfinance.gov/

I had a similar situation as those mentioned, threatened with court if I didn't pay around $3000. They refused to send me any documentation. They said it was already mailed to me. They gave an 8 year old address. I asked them to send me what these charges were, they said they could not that in order to stop a court summons, I had to pay RIGHT NOW. The lady I spoke to was very mean and rude. I stated I would need more time to get a lawyer and she said if I can't pay them debt how was I going to afford a lawyer. Anyway, she refused to send documents and any credentials so I refused to pay.

No debt validation, no debt, NO kidding.

How can I verify whether or not a debt collector is legitimate?
Here are a few warning signs that could signal a debt collection scam:

The debt collector threatens you. Legitimate debt collectors probably won't claim that they'll have you arrested or claim that they or their employees are law enforcement officers.

The debt collector refuses to give you information about your debt or is trying to collect a debt you do not recognize. You have certain rights to ask a debt collector to verify the debt. You can use this sample letter to request this information. Ask for an explanation in writing before you pay.

The debt collector refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number.

The debt collector asks you for sensitive personal financial information. You should never provide anyone with your personal financial information unless you are sure they're legitimate.
If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

Ask the caller for his or her name, company, street address, telephone number, and professional license number. Many states require debt collectors to be licensed. Check the information the caller provides you with your state officials, or the state in which the debt collector holds a license. If the caller refuses or is unable to provide you with information about his company, or if you can’t verify the information he provides, do not give money to the caller or company.

Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." This notice must include:
The amount of the debt
The name of the creditor you owe
A description of certain rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, consider requesting this information in writing or seeking assistance before paying the debt to make sure the debt, and the company, are valid.

Tip: You can consider sending the collector a letter requesting the information by using one of the CFPB's sample letters. You can also submit a complaint to the CFPB or you can contact your state Attorney General’s office.

Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know the company or person you are talking with is a real debt collector. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft such as:
Charging your existing credit cards
Opening new credit card or checking accounts
Writing fraudulent checks
Taking out loans in your name

Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate – but you think the collector may not be – contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.

Report the call. Submit a complaint with the CFPB or get in touch with your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers.

Stop speaking with the caller.If nothing else works and you believe the calls are fraudulent, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files.

Tip: You can use this sample letter to write a letter demanding the debt collector stop contacting you. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.

Tip: If you're having trouble with debt collection, you can submit a complaint with the CFPB online or by calling (855) 411-CFPB (2372).

Been dealing with a call from 844-207-2573 about my case # 15-125952. Got a phone call this morning saying someone will be coming to my home with a summons for me to appear in court. I was told someone would be at my home between 3-5 pm. It's now 5:45pm and nobody showed up.
When I called the # provided to find out about the summons, someone answered the phone....later I realize "how" he answered and what he said.
I was told that his collection agency was trying to collect a debt from a bank from 1996. They had exact information too. I was told if I work with "Richard Ley", whom I was on the phone with, I could take care of things before they show up with the summons. They offered me a much smaller settlement then what the courts would cost. I was told that if I didn't make arrangements with him today and avoided the summons, then they, the agency.....or whoever, would be able to contact my bank to close my account and I would no longer be able to find a bank to bank with because of this past debt. He wanted me to go to the bank today and withdraw a "Down Payment", then go somewhere and have a money gram done. I was to then call him to get the details as to who and where t have it made out to and where. Hum, NO BANK TRANSACTION SOUNDS WRONG........
I called my bank and the bank I used to owe and neither are familiar with an agency could or would be able to close someone's account.
At this point, no summons showed up between 3-5.
So far it's a scam....
But they had so much "Exact" information.
I had my phone and wallet ripped off last week and it was reported, but I think "All" my information has been compromised.
Beware of everybody and everything...
I was upset, but have done my research and it appears to be scam.

I got the same call but the # was 844-207-5273 or thats the # she told me to call but on my caller ID it came from Lompoc,Ca 805-800-4160

also the 805 # I just called it and it said it was no longer in service she called from it 3 times this morning

Yesterday my father sent me a text message stating that he received a call from "Anthony Carter" from legal processing. He wants me to call him at 844-231-6772. He said to give them this reference #14-8124. They wanted to know when I would be home to accept some papers that I must sign. I proceeded to call the number and I spoke with "Kaitlynn Walker" after giving my reference number she told me that I was being sued by Belk FOR $3,423.50! She said that in 2007 I made a purchase online with a Discover card and I was making payments, then stopped. I asked can you tell what it was that I purchased and she snapped back, "I DON'T HAVE THAT INFORMATION, I JUST HAVE THE AMOUNT YOU OWE." She then proceeded to say that I could settle outside of court and if I paid $946.92 I would not have to pay the $3000. She asked me did I have the $946.92 to pay today!!! I said that I do not have it to pay today, I get paid next Thursday. She said you can set up a payment plan for 5 months to pay $189.38! She said that she was going to email me forms to sign that I had to fax back to her right away by 4pm, the time was 3:56pm, she said Oh, well I'm in a different time-zone, so you have three hours to send it over. The documents came via email, and the message said "STIPULATION AGREEMENT" with two attachments. The documents were poorly typed with grammatical errors. My suspicious began to grow. I began to reflect, in 2007, I was a college freshman with no credit card and no way make these supposed payments, they claimed they sent forms to my old address, but yet she didn't know about the time difference and finally, why the rush for the money? I decided to look up the address listed at the bottom of the emailed document and a picture of an empty office building showed up. Also there was no website for "Sage Financial."  I summed the entire ordeal up to a scam. The next day at work "Kaitlynn Walker" calls me saying she never received the forms, I told her that she would not and I was on to her shady scheme, she then became quite upset and said that she would see me in court and hung up the phone.  I tried calling back three different times and the phone number was disconnected. I pay for legal protection through my employer, I will be waiting to "appear in court."
