866-395-2019

This is a customer service phone number of American Standard Financial

My son's fiancé was contacted by "American Standard Financial" (866)395-2019 about a government grant. They had all her personal information including the name of her bank as well. They also mentioned a 359.00 processing fee.
Not realizing it was a scam, she told them she would think about it and asked them to call her back later this month. Lo and behold an unauthorized charge was taken out of her bank by ASF for more than 359.00! So far,Academy Bank has been very unhelpful.At this moment I'm trying to help her recover her money from the bank. She is going in the morning to fill out an affidavit at the bank to try and recoup her losses.

This is definitely a scam. Do not give this people any info about you, especially not your bank acct info. Ask them questions, ie company name, phone #'s, addresses, names of persons you speak with. Write down everything. Call FTC right away and file a complaint. Thats the only way that anything will be done about this. These people need to be stopped. They are doing this so boldly and in the open cause no one is doing anything about it. We have to act together, even if you were one of the lucky ones and havent had your money taken. Call FTC today, 877 382-4357. We need your help. File a formal complaint. This will take only about 5-10 min of your time and it will help many of us who have been victimized.

Call FTC and file a complaint, please. We have to have a string or pattern of complaints in order to get anything do about this

Pass the word around. Call FTC, Federal Trade Commission, 877 382-4357 or go to their website www.ftc.gov

My parents also had a charge of $349 drafted out of there account, but when I call this number the company is Midway Medication and the rep that I spoke to was very rude and hung up on me. They claim that it's a company that can assist you with discount on PrescriptionS. I was told that my parents will receive a package in the mail and once they receive it they can send it back and they would issue a refund. I am definetly calling FTC

I just had an incident with this same identity which supposively handles customer service issues for many companies. Company whom I had incident with was Clearnet Consumer Assistance and Consulting or my checking account found as PXE- CLearnet Processing LLC. Phone numbers for the customer service contact either: 866-395-2019 or 866-952-8826. Number that called me for the service in the first place: 786-623-4009

My mom had $395.00 deducted from her checking account by a company called Identiguard Pro Services and 1-866-395-2019 was the number on the Check with "For more information regarding this payment, details of your order, and/or to cancel your order and request a refund, please contact the company at the number provided and give the customer service representative the reference number above.  Thank you." written below a reference number.  I am not sure how they got mom's account info but I reported it to the FTC.  She will go to the bank tomorrow to see what else she can do.  She too received a call last month saying that she was eligible for a $5000 government grant and that a fee would be deducted from her account....I am not sure if these two events are related.  I called the number on the check and after a lengthy "hold" I spoke to -Scott- who was also VERY rude...He even asked me if I was mentally [***].  I hope this company pays dearly!!!

My elderly mother received a phone call for health insurance.  She gave them her bank acct # and they took $388 out of her checking account.  The writing on the electronic check is so tiny that you can't make it out.  However, the customer phone number given to us from the bank is 866-395-2019.  When I called them they were totally uncooperative and insisted that I give them my mom's phone # which I wouldn't do.  This is a scam. She got no further correspondence (no surprise). We're working on trying to get the money back.

This is a scama nd what makes my blood boil is the name they are using!  They are actually the ones doing the identity theft.  I have been dealing with these types of crooks for almost two years on my mon's behalf.

I'm dealing with this now with my mom who was scammed in July '08.  She moved in with me and I was trying to balance her check book and I wasn't coming out with what the bank had for a balance so I went on line and found this off the wall check # and amount so then I went to her bank and they came up with this bogus check that was automatically withdrawn from her account and did not require a signature because "depositor" authorized the draft and get this, the company supposedly is to protect people from fruad, SLP (Secure Life Protection).  The man at the end of this phone number was very rude and hung up on me when I began to scream at him.  I'm working on getting my mom's money back too.  She is 83 and she lives on her social security check and I don't appreciate someone taking advantage of her.

Absolutely a scam.  Called 4x.  The first 3 times they hung up on me.  Charged elderly woman $399 for Credit Protection.  SLP.  When I got the guy on the phone he had a man in the background giving him stuff to say.

The only calls that are not covered by the National Do Not Call List are: political organizations, charities, phone surveyors, and any company that you have established a business relationship with by placing an order through said company or by other means.

Telemarketers are responsible for removing your phone number from their calling lists within 31 days of you registering your number on the DNC List.

The National Do Not Call Registry applies to any plan, program, or campaign to sell goods or services through interstate phone calls. This includes telemarketers who solicit consumers, often on behalf of third party sellers. It also includes sellers who provide, offer to provide, or arrange to provide goods or services to consumers in exchange for payment.

Businesses can access the National DNC online at www.telemarketing.donotcall.gov

This is taken directly from the National Do Not Call List website:
https://www.donotcall.gov/faq/faqbusiness.aspx#how
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
How will the National Do Not Call Registry work?

Starting January 1, 2005, telemarketers and sellers will be required to search the registry at least once every 31 days and drop from their call lists the phone numbers of consumers who have registered. Through December 31, 2004, telemarketers will have to update their lists every three months. The dedicated, fully automated and secure Web site at www.telemarketing.donotcall.gov will provide this information to telemarketers and sellers.

When an organization accesses the system for the first time, it will have to create a profile and provide some identifying information, such as organization name and address, authorized representative, and the representative's telephone number and email address. If an organization is accessing the registry on behalf of a client-seller, the organization may need to identify the client (or clients).

The only consumer information organizations will be able to access from the national registry is a registrant's telephone number. Consumers' phone numbers will be sorted and available by area code. Each organization accessing the registry data will be required to pay an annual fee based on the number of area codes the company accesses.

On subsequent visits to www.telemarketing.donotcall.gov, organizations will be able to download either a complete updated list of numbers from their selected area codes or a more limited list that shows additions or deletions since the last download.

A consumer who receives a telemarketing call despite being on the registry will be able to file a complaint with the FTC, either online or by calling a toll-free number. Violators could be fined up to $11,000 per incident.

I think this is pretty clear and as far as I'm concerned soliciters have no excuse to call people who have taken the time to register.  If companies are wasting their money to buy lists with numbers that are registered on the DNC and call them I personally have no problem filing a complaint and hope they get charged the maximum amout of $11,000 every single time.

My mom was scammed by "Secure Life Protection" using this number on July 1, 2008.  I told them to cancel immediately on July 8.  They said, "Once she gets her membership kit, you have 30 days to cancel".  She didn't get it until October 1.  I called and got a company called "CCR".  Told them to cancel.  They said she would get a full refund in 30 days.  I have called them weekly since October 29.  They now are called "3rd Party Processing".  Same word every week I call.  I speak to "Rob 829" and he says all they can do is send emails on her behalf for the refund.  They hit her for $399.  She is 88 and this is a crying shame.  Last week I was told a supervisor would call me within 48 hours.  It's been over a week again with nothing.  I'm at the point of giving up.

My mother's bank account has had two draws taken from it, each for $349.  Here's what I've been able to find so far:

Checks are cleared by Landmark Clearing, 5720 LBJ Freeway, Suite 325, Dallas, TX  75240 888-886-2393.  I called them and they told me this number belongs to:  Master Leading Digital, Peter Mahoney, 1049 Cherokee Road, #4, Louisville, KY 40204.  No such person exists, but there is a cheap rent apartment complex at that location.  I called Louisville Police and they will not do anything to help.  I'll be driving through that neighborhood next week and will stop by for a visit - with an armed escort.  Wish me luck.

Mike, I hope you didn't give up!  These jerks are still at it! The names they use now are "Third Party Customer Service" and "Solid Securities".  The products are still id-theft protection and telemarketing-scheme prevention, how ironic. All that for ONLY a ONE time charge of $469.19. FCC and the Attorney General in the state or province the crime was committed in should also be notified.  It's the only way creeps like this get stopped.  Remember we'll be 86 some day too.

these scam artists are calling me at weird, late hours in the night. Harassing me, verbally abusing. Please catch these crooks, they are bad news for people in America.

3rd Party Customer Service supposed to be Medical Benefits Services. They took $359 from my account claiming it was a one time charge for medical benefits. They made it seem like it was from Medi-cal or Medi-care and that I would have all of my medical taken care of. Off to the bank and Police station to file a report.

One of our customers received a call related to telemarketing and how to stop junk mail and was somehow duped into providing his checking account information.

Today we received a Remotely Created Check (RCC) from EC Processing LLC in the amount of $387.  The payee was "Secure Med Group 866-913-0623".  The RCC also included the following:

    Memo 210143 Credit to: 866-395-2019

This RCC was not authorized. By the way, anyone who has been victimized should be aware that your bank (the paying bank) may submit an adjustment request for a remotely created check (RCC) that has been reported as unauthorized by the person on whom the RCC is drawn provided that the certain conditions are met.  The adjustment request must be submitted within 90 calendar days. The customer must provide a written statement asserting under oath that the RCC was unauthorized.

In other words: If an unauthorized RCC has been paid on your account, you must contact your bank ASAP.  They know what to do, and they can get your money back.
