I got a call from this number someone saying they are als. I had no idea what he was talking about at first but i did have some issues a while back and got myself into a situation that i shouldnt have. Thankfully the representative was able to help me clear everything up

Called from an unknown number . When I called the number left on my voicemail. The female didn’t know what to say. Total scam. I contacted the FBI

If they’re threatening you with  prosecution and/ or jail time — or worse — that’s a violation of your rights and a major red flag that it’s a scam. Didn’t leave their name of their “company” only a number.

Looks like we missed a lying shill back in March.

They left several messages threatening legal action but didn’t say why.

They call multiple times a day! Calling about an account I closed 4 years ago, with a zero balance. Total scam!

Called my cell and my job i assume to collect

They keep calling threatening charges against my drivers license? Smh Only DMV can do that so who are these fools harrassing me? Jeez

She called 2x. Said that I needed to give her a verbal statement. I hung up. She called back I hung up.

He left a voicemail stating his name was Matthew Logan and there was a complaint filed on me and that I needed to contact him. Case number didn't even sound legit and it said Spam risk when the number came up on my phone.

Called talking about putting me in check systems, freezing bank accounts and wage garnishment

Chex systems is for bad checks and not bad debts.  They cannot freeze or garnish anything without winning a court case which is never going to happen.

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 a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

He been blowing my phone up, even gave a docket number that was the first six of my social. I told him that [***] didn't even sound right. Cuz is trying hard.... Thank  you for your response.

Just received a call stating that someone filed a case against me.  When asked where she was calling from she stated ALS.  I asked who filed a complaint, she could not answer but offered to transfer me to a Paralegal.  I hung up

Same for me! Total scam!

My phone id says this call is from American Location Sprcislist

Sent a text stating . To avoid non compliance and escalation please call 855-223-3714. Text STOP to opt out. They called from a different number 716-412-7254. Both numbers are listed online as Scam numbers and I reporting it.

It is not a scam. I just spent 30 mins talking to Eric Robert’s. The issue I told him is that his secretary can’t even answer basic questions. Not personal questions but questions I had regarding their firm. I also told him his website looks like a Nigerian princes website. After 30 mins I told him I’d send him a bill for my business consulting of his employees “Whitney” and his website. My suggestion is to wait and speak to Eric before freaking out like I did.
