Keeps calling our business phone.  Called 3x in 3 days.  When we pick up, a recording says they have documents for you to sign and to call them back at this number.  I called it today to have our number removed & a gal said she couldn't find our phone # in their records so couldn't remove it.  She also asked if I had a reference #, which the recording did not state.   The company doesn't appear in Google no matter which way I spell it or where I check the #.  Probably a junk-debt collector.  Scam-ola all the way.

Received call today - left a message for my sister stating they had legal documents they need to discuss with her or her attorney. Left phone # and reference #, and said if she did not return call, they would consider her as not cooperating and would continue with their case. Not even going to bother as they did not state company name, and I have no idea why they're calling my number for my sister.  Showed up as "Unknown" on my caller ID.

called me just the people above no info no reference number no nothing just scam

Called my employer and sister, saying they were trying to serve me papers for debt.   And that they would mark me uncooperative if I didn't set up meeting.  Broke more than one federal law already.

this is a scam

Guy left a message, said his name was Jake.  If I don't call back in 24 hours something about my employer and documents could not understand what he was saying.  I did see on another site that this is not a valid number and caller ID was spoofed whatever that means. No company or reference # was left in the message.

they called my ex mother in law who I haven't spoken to in 20 years, my brother and my Mom in Florida. Said I had a failure to appear and asked where I was. Then told them they were gonna contact my work... W.t.h. Is any of that legal??

How does this person know about my business ive done at wells fargo bank? He (mr sun) said theyre legal aid calling about my debt from my acct? Wth? Answers please!!! He wouldnt give me any info about their address. Just said i need to pay via money gram, visa or master. Otherwise its attorney fees and court costs if i dont respond by 5pm today.

A phone call, email or text message from a supposed debt collector is not legally sufficient evidence of debt.

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) includes statements such as this:

* Every collector must send you a written “validation notice” telling you how much money you owe within five days after they first contact you. This notice also must include the name of the creditor to whom you owe the money, and how to proceed if you don’t think you owe the money.   ["Written" means snailmailed - US Mail ... not emailed or texted]

Source:

Therefore, if that caller wants you to pay immediately, before you get the written validation notice via snailmail, or if the caller wants payment via Green Dot, MoneyGram, Western Union, prepaid gift card or other untraceable means, then the call is definitely not legitimate.

IF you wish to communicate with the supposed collector / creditor, visit  the following page, for example "Action Letters" to snailmail:

If you KNOW you owe no money, or believe the call was from a fake debt collector, please take the time to read this:

Nope it's totally illegal theses people are running a scam trying to collect on old debts they told me I owed 3 thousand when I asked for proof he hung up on me

Don't pay its a scam they told me the same thing I said well I'll see u on court because u have no proof

Slum bag scammers trying to scare people out of their money don't send them a dime they called me and my parents about a debt I don't owe they are also breaking the law but calling family members of people they also won't give me the name and address of there office because I am going to report them to the BBB and fair debt collecting agency the mans name was Jake I was very polite I said Jake I never had a master card and need you to send me some type of proof with the name of your company and how I owe this money . He said no that's not my job and hung up ....  Scam don't send them money

This company called my daughter in college who is 18 and her place of employment. They stated that she had a overdrawn closed account with Wells Fargo 5 yrs ago, that would have made her 13 yrs old. Come on now. She is currently a Wells Fargo customer and they never said anything about it when she opened it up in college. There were no previous debt collectors calling me in the past, since it would have been in my name at the time 5 yrs ago. They state that all debt collecting options were tried and we never paid up on it, so they are taking her to court. BS!!! SCAM!!! Just hang up and block number!!

Call at 8:48 P.M. this date stating they had documents for me to sign and to return the call to their office at once.  Since they did not identify their company and the caller showed unknown on my caller I.d. I suspected scam and blocked future calls.
