Yep, same as above. "We have been trying to deliver a package." Hello? I'm quarantined and I work at home. How could they not deliver a package? Long tracking number. Yeah, right. I am not stupid.

Just got a call from this number. Same as above. Long tracking number. Two attempts to deliver, I've been home the last two months. No one came to my door. She said it was a credit card debt from 1993-2000. Would settle for 80% now. I told her I wouldn't give her any numbers over the phone. Said lawyers would be in touch. She hung up on me. I'll wait for papers to be served. LOL!! I think its a scam!!

A 20+ year old credit card debt?  They could not legally sue you for that.  This is the fake process server/debt collection extortion scam.

The fake process server/location finder extortion attempt usually consists of the following:

They mention that they have received a Fax document or some sort of complaint and that there is a pending legal matter or action about to filed against you to create the sense of urgency.  They tell you that they are a “process server” and cannot give you the particulars of the case since the file is sealed. This is simply ruse to get you to call another number (often with a made-up case number) where they will ask for money to “make it go away” (this is actually the same place, they work in teams, one pretending to be the server, and the other usually pretends to be a lawyer).  They threaten to serve you at home or at work.  They tell you that if they serve you at work then they will need a supervisor, security, or HR person there as a witness, hoping that will cause you to panic over the alleged embarrassment of being served at work.  They also tell you that you will need two forms of ID.  None of which is true.  Process servers do not ever call ahead so that you can dodge them.  Process servers get paid to serve papers, nothing else.  They certainly are not going to pass up a paycheck by telling you that you can avoid being served, they are not going to give you an extra day or even a few hours to get a “stop order”.  Court documents are time sensitive and must be served within a certain amount of time.  Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there really is a lawsuit that has been filed against you.

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.

Same as many others...Jamie from United Courier saying the had package they tried twice to deliver..gave 888-266-1702 number with bogus tracking number.  Has to be a scam!

their newest scam: someone called me with my same area code telling me about a package (which i don’t have any packages in waiting on) giving me a fake tracking code too, telling me to call back this 888 number. seeing here that’s it’s a scam number so obviously not gonna do it

Stole my personal info and said I was being sued with a company I have never used. Scam scam scam

Same as others before called my cell phone and said it was a package that needed delivered and it was unsuccessful. Bull.

Got a call from a young lady named Jamie stated that United Courier service tried to deliver a package and left me a tracking number and the call back contact number 888-266-1702. Originally called from a Raleigh, Nc number, never stated my name or anything. They will blocked

Got this same Jamie girl VM yesterday.

Same!! They said they had made 2 unsuccessful attempts to deliver a package and to call this number with the given “tracking number”

I guess Jamie gonna have to change up her lines🤣🤣🤣 sent her to vmail

My brother-in-law got a call don't know how they got his number. So he asked what it was regarding and was told it was about a package. Sounds like a scam to me

They pulled my brother-in-law's phone asking for me don't know how they got his number said it was regarding a package sounds like a scam to me

Same Jamie. Can’t deliver package. Call 888)266-1702. Didn’t try to call. Didn’t get tracking number on voicemail. I actually picked up phone and It stopped recording. Oh well. I guess I worried for nothing.

Just got a call, shows up as V70615204300011 on my phone, says they tried twice to deliver a package unsuccessfully (I work from home, so would definitely be here), also Jaime.  Gave the package number of 1Z4966scg4471 which comes up blank on United Courier Service (also checked all the popular delivery companies just in case).  They provided the number 888-266-1702 as the company attempting to make the delivery.

Called my cell phone with message to call 888-266-1702 with a tracking number that does not come up under any carrier.  They left no name for a company and I am not expecting a package so I am sure it is a scam.

Called and left VM.  This is the Vonage email identifying the message:

From     : V7141248180001108964 (17472687444)

"Hi this is Jamie calling from United Courier Service to schedule delivery of a package and it looks like we have been unsuccessful on two previous attempt please contact the original sender to reschedule delivery of this package. They can be reached at 888-266-1702. Also please reference the following tracking number 134966SGC4471. Thank you and have a nice day."
This email was sent from a mailbox that does not accept replies.

Notice the spoofed caller ID, and the phone number is not associated with United Courier Service.  Fraudsters.
Am not expecting a package, the number to call is identified as a scam artist, so did not call back.

Call and leaves message that have a package for me but doesn’t want to talk to my attorney. Says it is a lawsuit

They called said they want to deliver a package and it was a lawsuit and wanted me to confirm information which I did not. They knew my birthdate. I called my attorney and he checked and said I’m not being sued. Told me to block the number. I turned it into federal trade commission.

That's the same tracking number that they gave me in the message (1Z4966SCG4471).  The caller ID was a local number, and they left the number 888-266-1702 to call back.  Scam.
