Obviously it wasn't a "Telemarketer" so the labeling was wrong on the Caller ID.  You only have a slim knowledge of the fact regarding debt collection.  It doesn't matter whether your job is in jeopardy or not.  They are required by law to stop calling you at work when told to do so, preferably by your employer via certified, return receipt mail.

Quote:

Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code 16.004 has specified that the statute of limitations on an old debt that has been bought is only 4 years!

That only tells them how long they have to file a lawsuit and not how long they have to attempt to collect a debt.  You specified in your post that they were only attempting to collect a debt which is legal.  Had they said that they were going to sue or had already filed a lawsuit then you would have had an affirmative defense and it would have been an FDCPA violation.

No, they are not on "notice" simply by you posting here.

I would suggest that you take the time to read the information on page 3 of this thread.

Lorenzo  Calling about a collection account That we have in our office that Negatively affect your credit Please give me a call to avoid 888-585-2112 did not say who they were trying to reach.scam call

Got a call from this number from a Samantha from structure settlement in regards of an automatic withdrawal that was authorized on my checking account (which I never did). They want to verify some information for security purposes to make sure I was the person who authorized this transaction

Got a voice message call 20 mins ago from William at Structured Settlement calling on behalf of a client to go over the details about a debt I owe. Requesting I call back at 888-585-2112. The phone number listed on my phone caller ID was 785-347-7854.
Structured Settlement callers have left several voice messages over the last month. I owe nothing to anyone. This appears to be a scam.

I got a call from a Joseph Fox saying that a file was given to him and he wanted me to contact him before they proceed and all info will be used to collect this debt..I am not aware of any debt that I owe.

Received a call and vmail from James at Structured Settlements today , same as everyone else has received.

This number just called me, said his name was Joseph Fox. The number he called from was a local number (prob so I would answer, but didn’t.) Here is the exact message (thanks to transcription from iPhone!):

“Yes, hello this is Joseph Fox calling from structured settlement. I'm trying to contact you in regards to a file in Florida to my office that does require your immediate attention before decision is rented on your behalf back to my client as to how to proceed I would like to give you an opportunity to address this matter yourself. Please contact me back. My number. Here is 888. 585-2112. I do look forward to speaking with you and hope to hear from you soon. Please be advised this is an attempt to collect a debt in any information obtained will be used for that purpose…”

John king called and was rude. They are taking 200 out of my account

He called me and said the same about a bounced check. I told him I don’t have a bank account and then he said it was for a very small loan ($250) that I took out over two years ago but I still have never had checks. He was incredibly rude. He told me that I was going to jail if I didn’t pay $500 today. He said there’s consequences for writing a bad check and again I told him I have never had a check to write a bad check. Did anything ever happen with yours? His name was also John King and he knew everything about me including my maiden name, my first married name, and my new married name. He even somehow got my Dads number and started calling him too.

I only have a car loan that Im still paying on time. I also check my credit on CreditKarma with no negative reports. Somehow I got a call of my supposed debt. The caller called me using a local number. And this is the transcipt I got from him.

"Hi, this is Lorenzo calling from structured settlement. I'm calling in about an account that you have in collections in our office that can negatively affect your credit. Please give me a call as soon as you can to avoid this. You can call me at 1-888-585-2112. This is an attempt to collect that and any information. Can be used for that purpose again. Give me a call at 888-585-2112. Thank you."

This is a total scam, identity theft operation.  The business addresses they provided are a ups store and marijuana dispensary in henderson nv.  Reported today to fbi, dhs hotlines and henderson police.   They were aware and are actively investigating.

I received this:

“ Hi, this is William from Structure Settlement, and I'm contacting you regarding to a recording I just reviewed from my NSF department. You authorize a payment that came back returned from your bank. We take bad payments very seriously, and you could be subject to penalty fees if the payment is not recovered. I'm sure this is just an oversight, and if so, I can reinstate the terms and conditions of this agreement. Please reach me back at (888) 585-2112. That's (888) 585-2112. I do want to advise you under federal law that this is an attempt to collect a debt. Any information obtained will be used for that purpose.” They called from this number (704) 255-4605.

I received a call and here is the message they left.

Needless to say, I have not received any NSF call or letter from the financial institution, and that’s because I haven’t ever have an NSF.

The scams and fraudulent calls and emails that are happening is very concerning and downright disgustingly scary, that this issue has not gotten better over the years, it’s only gotten worse.

The different Departments within the Federal Government, as well as State Government Agencies are not working with the correct Private Companies to eradicate this problem once and for all.

This is happened to people from every walk of life, and it’s happening to our Senior Citizens as well as the young. Enough is Enough.

Called identified as "Samantha" and said a withdrawal from my account has been authorized and said she was calling to verify that I had authorized the payment of a debt. In my case, I have no outstanding debts, especially any debt I would not be aware of.

Constant calls saying I’m getting taken to court for a loan I owe. They know all my info but I don’t owe a loan.

I got a voicemail today saying, “Hi, this is Ann calling from structured settlement. I'm calling regarding a file here in my office. I'm calling with good news. Trying to reach you in a reference to this file The client has extended an offer to you to close out your account for less what's owed give me a call and let me explain how this opportunity can work for you. My number here is 888-585-2112. Give me a call back today that way we make over the options together looking forward to speaking with you. This is an attempt to collect a debt. Any information obtained will be used for that purpose.…”

Message from a "William" who stated he's from Structure Settlement and a debit payment I made was returned from my bank, he's sure it was an oversight and to call them back asap to recover the payment along with legal threats.  Never heard of the company, no returned payment from my bank. SCAM
