That's what I thought. And I did research on the number and company and found nothing.

caller ID says Employment Tonight....yesterday it was 866-315-8234 Luke Gallows....today 866-317-9450, Luke Gallows......called yesterday and got same voice- different name, played along and he was going to email me proof and call me back. Never came so I called back this morning and told him I can play the recording of him saying he would follow the law and provide proof and  my Uncle, who is a Federal Attorney in Washington monitored the email all day and nothing came in. He questioned why I recorded and told him in Nevada I can do that legally so he said he would put in another call for the proof to be sent and call off the people looking for me. Questioned why they are the only company that will let you know when to be ready to be served, told me they want it resolved. Also asked why nothing was mailed to me, which is the legal way to go about collecting a debt and no answer. Now that I have 2 numbers, I am going to call and harass this piece of crap everyday. Getting same calls from IRS collectors, love calling them back also. He told me they would come looking for me and I politely told him my gun holds 20 so bring an army. Then told the caller I have an International Carry Permit to carry anywhere I want and to look out his window, I am waiting to talk in person, he hung up quickly

Caller id was (888)888-8888 Received the same message was told to call 866-315-8234 that I am going to be served at home or place of business. No company name give. The guy said his name was Luke Gallows.  Found that interesting since that is the professional name of a current WWE sports entertainer.

Caller ID also (888)888-8888. Also Luke Gallows, same return number (866) 315-8234 stating intent to serve.

Scam involving threats of serving legal papers relating to an unidentified debt.

I got the same call - 888-888-8888 - told me to call 866-315-8234 - same name - Luke Gallows - same message- legal process of fraud and I had until 4/28/17 or I would be served....????

Got the same threats last week to be served on the 24th.  Now they are stating the 27th.  Luke Gallows also. here are the numbers
- 888-888-8888 - told me to call 866-315-8234

Same caller, Luke Gallows and call came from 888-888-8888 and to settle call 866-315-8234. They never told me what the debt was for just Luke Gallows from legal processing services and any recorders used previously will be used against me but again for what debt bc he never said. Also said they will execute this on 4/28. Is there a way to report people like this...this has to be illegal?!?!

i have been receiving the same voicemail's for the last week. friday they told me i would be served on monday and i wasnt; started again stating i had until 4/28 or they would execute the claim. i called back the number and i spoke with a robert wolfe and chloe lennard - both which provided an email address and street address - i sent an email confirming the address because i couldn't locate them when i google'd it; and want proof of said debt.  they are claiming to be apart of a company called apogee portfolio in the account receivables dept - again no website. they have now somehow started calling my job and the same recorded message from luke gallows stating the message is for my "full name" i called them just now and received a generaic voicemail opening and have left a nasty messages about harassing me at work, and requested a phone call back from either of the two i had previously spoken with. if they do not call me back within a few hours i will call them again and again.

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.

thank you. i have done this in the past however this time they're calling my work and not only is it harassment but its embarrassing even if its fake; not everyone would know my financial status.

i will follow your suggestion above.

Got the same voice mail from Luke Gallows saying I was to be served...They call themselves Apogee ... accounts receivable department.....I wonder if they are a licensed.. legal collection agency....I will file complaints to the appropriate government agencies

I am going to file complaints ( to state banking and financial institutions... state attorney general and FTC)   about there threatening calls..

He told me that mine was for a fraud claim against me, not a debt. This is the third time he claims he's going to send someone out. Past two times it was a no show.

I got call from same guy I have no idea what he talking about  number was 1-866-326-4001 but number showed up as 18888888888 too

THIS COMPANY IS WORKING STOLEN DEBT DO NOT PAY THEM!!!!!
