It is worth looking into, in many states you can file complaints on-line, and if this is a real company the state boards can be pretty...

    • The topic of this thread isn't about BBB ratings or how accreditation works. A simplistic comment about why AFRNI maintains an A+ rating is because they pay for accreditation. No further explanation of the BBB rating system is going to help the topic of the debt collection company that is the...

    • One more link for the road ... I've revisited something mentioned here 4.5 years ago, a three page CFPB compliance bulletin from December 2015 regarding "In-Person Collection of Consumer Debt".

    • With a VOIP system you can make it look like anyone with any number, however spoofing an emergency service is probably an inditable offence.

    • What prosecutor? A scammer is trying to scare you. Email is not proof you owe money to anyone, and no legitimate prosecutor will demand payment with an email.

    • They keep calling our office from random phone numbers, but can't seem to navigate our IVR. This is a sure sign it is a robo-call, and not an English-speaking person. Since our phone system also allows us to block by name, we'll see if they continue to call.

    • Remember this, the IRS does not call, if they need to reach you the send a letter via USPS. Again, the IRS does not call you also if the do plan to arrest you they will not call you first and tell you that you will be arrested.
