Telephone scam artist?

Catherine Miller is a scam artist!   When I spoke with her and asked point blank if this was a debt collection issue, she said no that it was a claims resolution that I had filed last week against someone or someone against me.  I cannot even find a legitimate website for them!

Do not answer these calls, they are looking for money and connected to a large chain of scam artists that hack into consumer date bases.  

This woman has been calling my landline and cell oncessantly.   Leaves nasty messages about taking it to the next level.  Says that s claim against me has just comr across her desk?   Then why has she been calling me for weeks?  Said she is with Integrated Services but that is all.   Scam artist of the worst kind.    Don't fall for it!!!

Yes she is!    Block her if you can!    Integrated Services or NCO Financial.  Be careful not to give put ypur cell number unless you have double checked it is a legit website.

Harassing calls at my job.

Been calling myself and my sister somehow.  I called back to ask Catherine Miller to send me written information regarding her bogus case #...she started yelling and called me rude and hung up.  I called back and she kept yelling at me.  Total scam...DON"T GIVE ANY INFO TO THESE SCUMS!!

Catherine Miller called my job today, I normally get the call from the number and it is an automated system so this morning I just picked up the phone and hung it up, happened 5 different times then I decided to let voice mail get it. She left me a long dirty message about how she was going to call my manager and called my manger by name. Said "Maybe you do not need a job as an inside sales rep with your company. You need to call me back with you managers number, no I will just find it my self" My bank account has been hacked twice this year, I am not going to call this woman back, I wish I could find an attorney that would be willing to file charges against this woman or company.

We'll this number called my job this afternoon and left my manager a voice mail his name was lee night and it was from integrated services regarding a legal matter I won't be calling back and if he calls my boss back she will give him a piece of her mind after showing her this site

Jay Reichmann called me at work from 855-228-6832 saying "a file has just come across my desk"

I have received several calls from a Sabrina Mason with integrated services first wanting to  validate and verify my address and wanting me to give a formal statement failure to do so would result in obtaining wages employment and liquid assets. The next call came saying she was providing a recommendation on a pending claim and wanted to speak to me or my legal representative to doc a verbal response and if i was to continue to be negligent that she would proceed without my consent.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:

•is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
•refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
•asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
•exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.

If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

•Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.•Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
•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 whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft – charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or 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. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.

Follow the steps in what you need to know. A legitimate debt collector agency should not have a problem with giving you a real business name and address you can google and verify via google street view, BBB etc.
For extortion Scam Operations, file reports with the FBI, your state attorney general and Department Of Justice,FTC & FCC..

And folks should consider looking at maybe getting call blocking device or phone....you can Google them and many are around $60 or so.

File a claim with ftc.gov. That what I do, if I get crazy calls from bill collectors etc.

I just received the same  call from Sabrina Mason 855-228-6832. She left a voice mail stating  exactly the same thing you mention in your post (i.e.  validate and verify my address and wanting me to give a formal statement failure to do so would result in obtaining wages employment and liquid assets)

Getting pre-recorded calls from "Sabrina Bryan" I figured, really, Sabrina Bryan from the Disney kid's movie Cheetah Girls??? :)  Call says I am being negligent by not responding to her calls and she will be filing paperwork and gives the # 1-855-228-6832 for "Integrated Services" where they have yet another disclaimer message saying you need to speak to the "legal outsourcing department" I just let it go to whoever the phone rolls to and hang up, as it is a different scammer every single time. So fake!!!!!! My advice is just do not engage them, do not answer or call back and definantely do not give any information.

I am highly annoyed that this Catherine Miller would call my work and ask for my boss and make it look like I was in legal trouble when I was not.  How do we stop them from doing this?

My mother received a call from 855-228-6832 which left a message that they were trying to reach me and were asking for financial information. I have had no contact with anyone by phone or mail and believe that this is a scam and would like this number blocked from contacting myself or my mother.

"This is Sabrina Mason calling with the offices of integrated services. I am calling to validate and verify a legal address for service for ____________. Please call 855-228-6832 to provide your formal statement. Failure to respond may lead to expedited verification of wages, employment, and liquid assets.  To avoid this protocol please contact my office immediately at 855-228-6832."  The name she mentions is a family member in another state!!  She makes it sound like she is going to go after OUR wages, employment and assets.  What a total scam!!

I have gotten both Catherine Miller and Sabrina.  Both of them have called me and threatened everything that are in these messages.....So did you and/or anyone reading this have a loan or payday loan that was delinquent?

Extortion Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

Washington, D.C.
December 07, 2010  FBI National Press Office
(202) 324-3691

— filed under: Press Release

The Internet Crime Complaint Center has received many complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. Callers claim the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check-cashing services.

According to complaints received from the public, the callers have accurate data about victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and the names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. How the fraudsters obtained the personal information varies, but in some cases victims have reported they completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls started.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim’s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide any details about the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers have threatened victims with legal actions, arrests, and, in some cases, physical violence if they do not pay. In many cases, the callers harass victims’ relatives, friends, and employers.
