877-306-7586

(877) 306-7586 - Indian caller claiming we owe money, he does not want to identify his company. Indian = SCAM OF THE EARTH!

A call and no vm, BLOCKED based on above comments.

I get calls from this number everyday at 11am, no message, and when I picked up by accident because I wasn't paying attention, no one is there just dead air with some background noise.  Assuming it's not legit, blocked.

Called back and heard a recorded message.

Received a call, but was unable to answer. No voicemail left. Called the number back from another phone and received a prerecorded message advising it was Nationwide Credit, Inc. and the line was recorded. I did not remain on the line to speak with a representative.

Number was on my missed calls log.  They left no message, so I called it a few days later.  The recorded message said it was Nationwide Credit Inc.  This company keeps calling using different numbers.

Also my google voice flagged it as spam.

They lrft messages saying  that it's the IRS, and my Ss# i has been hacked.

Unknown number, rejected call, search revealed plenty of SPAM information.

nobody on the line no one to speak with just dead air.

I get a call from them everyday at 8am

Scam

They call everyday but don't leave a voicemail. I don't answer calls from numbers I don't recognize.  I've blocked the number but it can still go to voicemail. But still nothing. IF, they are "Nationwide Credit Inc." Like others have said they are. I do not owe anyone by that name money. I feel they are a scam, because if they had real business that was important to talk to me about, they would leave a voicemail.

Hello there are you calling me and  what are you calling who are you calling for today and what is your problem.

That person from over a year ago is not calling you. Read the other posts and you should be able to get up to speed on the nature of the calls.

Unknown number sent to VM. Did not leave a message.

They've been calling daily at about 10:20 a.m.   I've blocked 2 numbers so far that I've identified as scams through internet searches.  Anyway, there is a legit collection company called Nationwide Credit Inc. but their contact number is an 800 prefix, not an 877.  They never leave a message and I don't owe anyone anything and don't answer unidentified numbers.

Debt collectors have lots and lots of phone number that are not the number that you would be calling in to the main office on.

You will need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation (by law they have to go back to the original creditor to prove you owe the debt), cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (this will be the best money that you have ever invested).  Also send it first class mail in case no one will sign for it.  Make a notation of that fact at the bottom of the letter.  You also need to report them to the proper agencies to which I have provided links to.  Then you need to go out and get a consumer lawyer to sue them on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket) and let them pay you for the harassment.  If everyone did these three things, these crooks would be bankrupt, and we would all be the richer for it.  Use these web sites to find an attorney in your state that will probably take the case on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket up front):  http://www.consumeradvocates.org/

Everything else you need to know follows including at least two or more federal and state agencies where you should report their criminal activities.

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 (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked 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.  If and when you get that letter 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 complaints with the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.
