888-485-1423

I answered the call and said hello 4 times before hanging up. It was silent.

Just got a call from this number

Claim it was "The legal department". If you are a legal department you shouldn't be calling you should be taking action!... scammer... No one has time for this crap in the middle of the day. If it is a legitimate legal issue they will mail you something or serve you something to your address not by phone.

Just received a call from this number, seems like a scam! Left a voicemail about a fax their office received......... and blah, blah, blah.....

Voicemail about fax order they received for someone that doesn't live (right last name, wrong first name). Tried to call back to see what the probable hoax was all about, their inbox was full, couldn't accept any more messages. I recall getting this call in the past with the same experience. Will go on my blocked list.

Left message had fax and call back. This is last notice. But they called the next day left same message. Returned call and asked who they were with....some sort of legal services. Scam

Says that I need to call now that it's my final warning

Just received a phone call from this company saying they are " serving " a legal document from 2001 . Yes 16 years later . Filing a complaint and notifying this is a scam and fraudulent company . Never had the bank they are " claiming " .

Received several messages...combination of the above.  Something about legal office and received a fax message;  I need to call right back. Its for a person who doesn't live here or who has never had this phone number. Blocked the number

Criminals masquerading as debt collectors attempt to extort money from people by scaring you into believing that you will be criminally charged (they use the bad check or hot check claim a lot) and go to jail, lose your driver’s license, have wages garnished without actually being sued or going to court, be sued, and a variety of other variations on this, all for an alleged or nonexistent debt.  One of the tricks they use is to call your family, friends, neighbors and/or places of employment (past or present or both) to create panic and embarrassment so that their intended victim calls them and they can scare that person into paying their extortion money.  They will use the words “Mediator”, “Arbitrator”, or “Law Office” to make you believe that they are something other than a debt collector want-a-be and that they don’t have to follow Federal and State collection laws.  They do have to follow those laws, but they won’t.  They mention that they have received a Fax document, to create the sense of urgency.  They also tell you that if you fail to call them back you are "waiving your right to council", which is pretty much nothing but hogwash.  They also use the “process server” ruse who calls and claims he is going to serve you, but then says you could avoid it by calling another 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).  Process servers do not ever call ahead so that you can dodge them.  Process servers get paid to serve papers, nothing else.  

If your feel you SSN has been compromised, in addition to putting a fraud alert at the 3 credit bureaus, you may want to notify the IRS.  Here is the link, fill out the proper form (probably 14039). Also file a report at the FTC Identity Theft web site as well as learn what else you need to do:

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and 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.

These people are calling my home at least 10 times a day now they are calling my cell phone something about a fax to be delivered to me. These are the name so for  Eric Mason, Debra Killman and Carol Fosett. they also use the # of 877-854-3538, 877-219-1948 they are very annoying. If you call them they call themselves LEGAL DEPARTMENT

These people have been calling my moms home and her cell phone with the same message. Spoke to 2 different people one hung up on me and the other Debra kilman said it was an account of s payday loan from either 2009 or 2012.

Can you block the number?
"Legal Department" - a fancy (scary) name used by bottom feeders.  Please read BigA's post above yours for excellent advice.

I have blocked the one number 1-888-485-1423 bc that's the only one that's called me

have received multiple calls to my cell and home number from this number (888-485-1423)
It sounds like a recorded message and it says:

"Hi my name is Debra Tillman.  I received the fax order to the address on record for (it pauses then automated voice  says "wfht")  for proper delivery of these correspondence.  Please return my call to 888-485-1423 regarding this matter.  This is your final warning."

I have had at least 5 so far between my home phone and cell phone.

When i call the number provided goes to voice mail but advises that box is full and can't leave a message.

They are freaking my mom out because she takes them at their word on the answering machine grrrrrrrrr so frustrating.

Simply ignore and block the calls.   Same old same old "Fax order"nonsense.  Basically a nonsense term meant imply some sort of official business and to scare money out of people.

Just because someone on the phone calling you says you owe a debt does not mean you actually owe it.

If a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt:

1.    Demand the person give you his or her name, company name, and address
2.     Demand a debt validation letter by US mail.  E-mail no good.
3.    Do not pay  the collection agent or anyone else a  dime until the debt is validated

Of course they won’t do this, no scammer ever will, so simply ignore them and block their calls.

If they are bothering you, report them:

http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection (Threatening civil proceedings with no intent to follow through, or threatening criminal process in order to collect a civil debt is a  violation of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.)  The same goes for endless telephone harassment

Also contact your local attorney general

If they continue to bother you,  and you know you do not owe any money, tell them that you know this is  a debt scam and that you are making a complaint to the police for extortion.  Once you get a copy of the police report and they call you again , just read out the  file number and the name of the PD or Sheriff’s office involved.   Tell them you’ll be glad to send a copy to them at whatever address the jack***es are working out of now.

You'll probably have to yell at them and talk over them.  Tell 'em  no scammy debt collector is going to push you around.
