I was unable to find the person the caller was wanting to speak with in our global address book. When I informed her I could not find an extension for anyone by that name, she apologized for the inconvience and said to have a great day.

The jerks harassing you are from Credit Control, LLC, 5757 Phantom Dr. Ste. 330, Hazelwood, MO 63042.  If you go to their website you will notice that they do not list their Fax #'s and just one or two phone numbers.  Here are all of their numbers that you can use to Fax notices to or call to fire back at them:

Fax #'s: (314) 442-7401; (636) 449-8101; (636) 216-0155.  

Their phone numbers that you can block or avoid answering are:

(877) 395-3541; (888) 365-7131; (866) 417-5761; (314) 442-7400 (I believe this is their regular main office #); (636) 449-8100; (866) 380-6667; (877) 445-8190; (800) 860-1582.

Good luck!

These guys are full of it! This guy BUYS debts from other companies. You may owe the original debt, however, the original debtor has long written off your debt. These guys buy the debt then try to collect. By law you don't owe them a dime!! Your debt was no with them and no one told them to buy your debt. That is a risk they are taking.

First of all, do you realize that you are answering a post that is over SIX YEARS OLD?

Secondly, your legal advice is absolutely horrible.  Debts CAN be assigned to a third party.  In other words, the right to collect on that debt can usually be assigned to a third party, whereas your obligation to pay is NOT extinguished.

Furthermore, at whatever time your debt becomes uncollectible, you may have to report the amount of uncollectible debt to the IRS as TAXABLE INCOME.  See your tax advisor.

Because the right to collect a debt can be assigned freely, the various fair debt collection laws of the federal government and various states are designed to protect you from fakers claiming that you owe them money, when, in fact, you don't.  They DON'T exist so that you can skip out of your legitimate debt.  Also many states prohibit payday loans to protect you, and most, if not all, advance-fee loans are illegal.  So you do get protection.  And if you still need a fresh start, you can consult a bankruptcy attorney.

Otherwise -- and I think that by now I can say this without sounding like a shill, as ironic as it sounds -- pay your bills or work them out somehow.

@Zipper -- Bar number please!

@ANonieMouse-  No need to apologize for your tone or demeanor, and I think you were too kind in dealing with zipper. This is the perfect for example to anyone reading this thread of why legal advice one gets on the Internet is worth exactly what they paid for this.

@all -- that adage of legal advice on the Net extends beyond unknown calls to things such as real estate, labor law, and tax issues.  Just about any law school has a "legal clinic" staffed by third year students with a fire in their belly ready to ply their trade while they bone up for the bar (and supervised by solid attorneys).  Given them a call before you listen to someone on the Net

This individual calls my home repeatedly. I have no debt.

Very rude and harassing, no identity or reference left on my phone

Many of these debt collectors purchase debt that is no longer valid. In my state the statue of limitations on credit card debt is 4 years from the last charge made on the account. If the debt is older than that, the debt holder has no legal right to attempt to collect. I work with several people who deal with debt connectors that "own" this zombie debt. Make sure you know your legal rights before discussing the debt with the collector. And in many states, a payment or an agreement to pay is enough to restart the clock, so be aware of that as well.

Received a bogus collections call from this #.  Voicemail for a Molly who we do not know and we have had this # for many years.

They are fraudsters and identity thieves. Don't give them any info. They are being investigated by Florida prosecutor. Google it.

I don't buy what you are saying, read these complaints.

Call show up in know on my phone. They left a message and this number. They said credit collector. Ask me to call this number back.  I am not stupid and the number they called is my cell phone.
I have not received any kind of written correspondence.

Jason called and immediately launched into a frenzied pitch about some new exotic sex toys his company makes and is selling - "computer-remote control vibrators" and ---.  I hung up. He called back a few minutes later and all I heard was "SKANK [***]! -- I slammed down the phone and put the number on call block. That will work until the sleazy company changes numbers. What kind of desperate people are they who call like that ??? It's a shame that their numbers are not being traced to the source and the people running such "businesses" are fined or locked-up. Better yet, get a computer to call them at all hours with a message to shame them - nmot that that would really work -- wishful thinking ...

Received call from Jason Orlin of C.C.I., P O  This man(?) was rude and threatened me with harm if i did not send $525.00 immediately as a certified check or used PayPal EFT !!! He said I was a deadbeat, a scammer, and a looser just before i slammed the phone down and put him on call block. I owe nothing to anyone - always paying with cash or money order.

A collection scam!

Jason Orlin of a collection agency/firm: C.C.I., called and offered me a one time deal to clear my debts for $500. if I gave him my bank numbers so he could transfer the money electronically. I owe about 18,000 dollars and cannot pay on time on any of them because i am ill and not able to work.I am so desperate to stop these harassing phone calls that I gave him the numbers and he said that I will get a receipt for the  $500. That was two days ago and my account, which had $7,523.00 in it is now at $25.00!!! I called the number that called me 877-395-3541 and it was "not in service or has been disconnected". What am i to do?

I get call everyday.  I don't know who they are.  Anyone that calls and hangs up our sytsem list them after the third hang up and blocks them.  Obviously, any legit company will leave their number and call back information.

Some guy called and immediately started to yell at me accusing me of being a deadbeat [***] who probably screws her way through life. I hung up. I have call block and that number is in it now. What is going on in this country that allows people like that to exist? I have no obligations to anyone - never have.

CCI calls all the time. I don't owe anyone any money. Even if I owed money I would not be liable to some debt sweatshop especially one with the bad reputation of CCI. They buy old accounts like you would a mailing list. I presume they are after someone who used to have my phone number so I just ignore them. If they ever sent me anything in the mail however I would send them a cease and desist letter (you can google sample forms) and tell them to shove it.

Don't mean to be disrespectful.  But how stupid can a person be.  Never ever give personal info, bank info, etc over the phone to anyone no matter who they are or say that they are.  Always ask for verification in writing sent by US mail.  If they say they can only send it by email, that should be the 1st red flag that they are scammers.  If what you say did happen with your bank account, you can get with your bank and sign an unauthorized debit form to try to recover your money.  You might be able to.

They are not a firm. Its some man sitting in a coffe shop who bought your info from someone. He picks a random name out of a hat and assumes that identity for the day. Then he calls you using a fack name and a fake business cillecting debt. Just say ooooohhh i know who you are dont call me again and hang up. Works everytime for me.
