Been receiving calls since Aug. 21. First said Harris and Harris and asked for address verification. Told them if they were "legit" they already had it. Now they call and no one is on other end. Gonna block the calls from now on. Am also on the do not call registry.

Scammers don't care about the DNC.  This caller is a Fraud debt collector.   If he werea real debt collector the DNC does not apply.   This caller falls into both categories.   Scammer & Fraud debt collector.

DNC Registry doesn't apply if this is a debt collector and being a fraud debt collector that makes him a scammer,  and scammers don't give a hoot who is on the DNC.

I got this call and if you press 3 to be removed it gives you another number to call.

I just received a call and they left a message to call them.  I looked them up on here and saw that it looked like a scam as I have not received any late bills.  They give you specific times to call and all is Eastern Time.

They called…left message starting with, "We are debt collectors….." I tried to pick up the call, but it was a recording and no one clicked on. We don't owe anything to anyone.

Received a message from them. Called back and the lady was really nice. I was really vague and just said I received a message about a debt you are trying to collect and wanted to look into it. I was not going to give them my name or any identifying info about myself. She verified my phone number and city from their caller ID I'm sure. Then asked if I knew of a Phillip Hoop. I said I do not and she said they were sorry about that and they would remove our number. Easy. Hopefully I won't hear from them again.

Robocall claiming to be someone called Harris and Harris debt collectors.

Seem to be scammers, since I have no outstanding debt subject to collection.

Continually receive calls from this number, starting they are debt collectors. For giggles, I waited for someone to come on the line, but they hung up on me after 30 seconds.

Really suspicious, really annoying.

"Henry Hoover" robocall with menu options.  Probably a scam.

They called again, this time someone answered, crappy connection so they couldn't (or acted like they couldn't) hear me.

In California, the Caller ID says "Toll Free Caller". It's always a hangup.

I always answer in a language most people do not speak nor even heard of....

This scammer has been calling the house for 6 months claiming on their computer generated  vmail to be from Harris & Harris collection agency. I have excellent credit and knew it was a scam.

You need to send them a debt validation letter, or a cease and desist letter by certified, return receipt US mail.  Here is everything you need to know

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.

Caller left auto message but never said what business they were representing.  I do not owe anyone and have been at my address for 6 years so any business that can give them my phone # would also have my address and would also have sent me notice of any amount owed or past due.

Received this automated phone call .  The message claimed that they were Harris & Harris Ltd , Debt Collectors and stated their hours as being 8 AM - 5 PM Eastern Standard Time on M-W-F.  Tuesday and Thursdays the hours were 9 AM to 6 PM Eastern Standard Time and that a return call was necessary..  This phone message was erased from my answering machine because they did not ask for me specifically.   I am under the impression that this is a scam phone call. .

Got a call at 10 am, robo call saying they were Harris and Harris debt collectors. I googled Harris and Harris, different number, and when I called, it was disconnected.

They called my Google Voice # today - definitely don't have any debts with that phone # attached.

This number keeps calling me on a weekly basis , saying there are from Harrison Harris limited  we are debt collectors. Look I know the bills I have and I pay them. So, I wil not pick up these calls . I will file a complaint if they continue.
