Someone leaves a message about collecting a debt, but deliberately mumbles the name of the company

Got one from this number and they seem to know a lot about me, They made threats about how they would get the debt paid and even threatened my supervisor when they called my job . Luckily my job is understanding and sees this as harassment and has put me in touch with the people i need to talk to. Probably helps that my aunt is a lawyer as well

Rude harassing trying to give me family members names

My son received a call from this number the man said his name is RIck Rainho and he needed to speak to my elderly grandmother. My son explained that the person he was looking for was his Great Grandma and the person state my Uncle had give this number as the number of her retirement home. Thing is my Grandma is not in a rest home. He wouldn't give me any details or a company name and when I pressed to see if there are any other names on the account he said no. He had way to much info about my grandmother so I reported it to her children so they could take further action. Very scary what if they had reached her.

Harassing, clearly a debt collector but won't say who they're with. They have the wrong number as I do not know the woman they ask for but continue to call

This Rick guy called about a cousin of mine. However don't know how they got my number considering it is a number that is in another persons name

Called my office and mumbled the company name but left the number.

got a message from someone claiming to be debt collector. they did not say who they were, what was the debt or who they wanted to talk to.
called after 5pm too. I do not owe anybody money so I don't know why they are calling me. is this a scam?
I looked up the phone number online at it says the number belongs to Kinun Inc in Virginia Beach.

sorry it is Kinum  Inc.

This number called my bf # today looking for me...he told them he was at work and I wasn't there, so then they asked for my number...he told them he couldn't give them that information...he said they never said who they were or what the call was in regards to, but we figured out how they may have gotten their information...he had filled out an online application for a first time home owner thing giving my name with his #...I don't know what site it was, but apparently they have been hacked, they are fake, or they sell your information to a third-party...

Yes that could be it.....also all social media is reviewed by scammers, criminals and thieves. You might be in touch with your friends and family but at what cost.

From a post I made in 2014
I can find no link between Goldberg, Sloan and Associates and Fidelis Asset Management or Kinum, Inc.  However, this is what I have found out about Kinum and Fidelis:
BBB Page for Fidelis lists a NY address which there is an alert out because the BBB could not contact them at that address: http://www.bbb.org/upstate-new-york/business- ... ca-ny-201214723
Fidelis lists an address in Virginia:  http://fideliscollections.com/contact-us/  which also happens to be a UPS store:  https://www.google.com/maps/@36.759828,-76.00 ... -ew!2e0!6m1!1e1        &   note the same suite # at the UPS store on their page:  http://virginiabeach-va-4809.theupsstorelocal.com/
The BBB page list Kinum at the same address as Fidelis in VA.:  http://www.bbb.org/norfolk/business-reviews/c ... ach-va-90063234

However Kinum Lists a Utah address:  http://kinum.com/contact-us/

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.

Read up on your rights here and also make a complaint at this government site:  http://www.consumerfinance.gov/

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

This number called my wife today. They called from a 304-241-6537 (Morgantown, WV) and left a message saying to call back at 888-281-1750. I called back for my wife and they had the wrong name attached to my wifes phone number. Said it would be removed in 24 hours.

Left a message on my cell today from 757-932-3241 asking me to call 888-281-1750.  Putting these on my blocked call list.  Their efforts do not apply to me.  If they know where I live, they can drop by.  That would be fun.

Called from a different phone number (812-393-5069) and left a message saying "This is Michael Lang from Kenam Incorporated. Please call me back at 888-281-1750." I have not called back.
