    They are a debt collector, Allied Interstate.  It appears that instead of removing your cell phone number from their system, they grabbed your work number when you requested that they cease calling, and just substituted that.

    A number of other complaints indicate they are incompetent at handling erroneous numbers in their system.

    If they call you at work, tell them to cease calling your work number.

    If you have additional problems, contact the Florida Attorney General.

    Or if they continue to call either your cell phone or work numbers, you can sue them, since you have told them to cease calling both.

    Been in the telecom industry, I can tell you spoofing is illegal, you can always use other resources to follow thru. You may want to contact The US attorney general, the FCC as well as the FTC. Also if this is interstate you can actually contact the FBI.

    Based on the law, they cannot contact you at your place of business. They are only legally able to contact you at your home; you can also send a stop and desist letter via certified mail.

    Record their conversation, when you speak to them if you do, many of them have no clue of the law and make drastic mistake threatening people.  They can't make any statements in which they can destroy your credit, call your family, call your work and or tell everybody that you have debts and you do not pay, this is protected by the law. IN this case now you have the upper hand, as now they open the door for a lawsuit, almost any attorney will take this type of cases on contingency. Is an infringement of your rights and punish by law. This people use scare tactics to scare people and even collect many times the same debts that have been paid previously.
    The reality  nothing that they can do, if you do not or can't pay, they must take you to court and get a judgment against you, then they need to be able to collect.
    You want to get even, call then day in and day out, to their numbers use redial, and have anybody that you know do the same, do it day in and day out, that will shut down their PBX system, if they do it to you do it to them.
    Yes annoying, but effective if hundreds of people do the same and saturate their phone lines.
    Remember their 800 are free to you, they pay for it, call put them on hold and have your friend do the same, do this every day as much as you can. IF they have the right to harass you, you have the right to do the same to them. They called you first!


    Here are some of the biggest scan bags in the industry, and believe me they are all scan bags at the end. They count on you to be afraid of them.

    Call their 800 numbers is free to you but not to them.
    They use many spoof numbers if any, as many times they use no caller ID on purpose but they leave you a number to call. Always keep the recording particularly if they are menacing and report does to your police local department as now you have a legal record.
    Spoof Number used: 1310-953-3485

    If you want to negotiate a settlement call your original lender directly, do not with this scan bags, they are in commissions or percentages based. Many banks and lender will negotiate up to 80 % of the debts, make sure they do not report it to the IRS if not they can make you pay the taxes on the remaining amount, and make sure they clean your credit, get it in writing first.

    Don't get mad get even.

    People which do block the caller ID and or use Spoof numbers always have something to hide, that is the only reason they will use a Spoof number (Fake number / Voip Number / Or PBX number whit no actual connection only rings and then dies)   Report them to the Authorities, this business practices are illegal and punish by law: if they use spoof numbers, Obscene and rude language, threats, harassment, all this are felonies and punish by law. Report them to your Local Telecom provider, your local District attorney, the local police department, your local senator, record the conversation and keep any and all voice mail left, don't be afraid, they can do absolutely nothing to you till they take you to court if you owe them any money, is futile to argue with ignorant people.

    Allied has been calling me for weeks looking for someone I have never heard of. I call them back, tell them to take the number out of the system. I did that on Tuesday, the lady said she was removing my number. They called again this morning. I called them back and said hey you were to remove me from the system and the guy told me -- get this -- that if I answer the phone it sends the number back into the system as a valid number. So I said, how did it call my number if the lady removed it on Tuesday? Just a stumbling I don't know response. I told them if it happened one more time I was filing a complain with the FCC. Let's see if they call tomorrow.

      FTC sued them over similar complaints, and they settled by paying a $1.7 Million penalty, and agreed to better comply with FDCPA.  Despite what it cost them, it doesn't sound like they are very compliant even now.

      File a complaint with FTC, reporting their harassing calls and failure to remove your number from their call list.

    I have also had calls from this number, my attorney has litigation pending against Sprint and Sprint has been informed not to contact me. I spoke with LaVon @ 7:00 AM PST confirming closure of my Sprint account and got the run around on April 10th 2012 again I called on Wed. April 18th 2912 and spoke with Irus @ 7:30 AM to again confirm the cancelation of my account on 4/10/2012 which was started on on April 10th 2012 when they gave me a closing stamen on the phone of $340.00 USD when I spoke to a supervisor and she not only  gave me a closing amount at that time I told her that is confirmed and I still have that number.Then I got a call out to PP Depatment and spoke to Gerodo and Rhea about getting my phone number moved to T-Moble and was told to get Account Number, Code # and Sir# to move the phone number which I did but but now my Magic Jack still works on that number 818-627-8060 to call out but I get no calls in and my Magic Jack number is still up to date and only works for out going calls.  and this call was made on 04/19/2012. I called my Attorney Mr. Danilo Becerra at 1 323 725-0917 who has taken the Bull-E by the horns and told me they have been contacted (Sprint) and they are not to contact me by any means personally. He knows about the closing cost of $340.00 and knows more about the situation than he is tell me but he says do not listen to these people. His email address is djbecerra@mbc4law.com and can be found at 3500 West Beverly Blvd in Montebello, California I am still getting bills from Sprint but the litagation will likely go into a civil Suite and he is doing this at no upfront cost to me. See the situation is like being captive to a phone company because Sprint won't let me pay my promised closure of $340.00 USD and only wants me to catch up with past payments after discussing this with Supervisors and in the process they are destroying my credit. I will not be embezzled buy a cell phone companay or have them completely destroy my credit by lying to me and then forcing me to hold to a debunked account. I have been advised by Mr Danilo Becerra that they is something very wrong at Sprint and needs to be adjusted by litigation that has been started. My advise is to call this very proficient and professional attorney and discuss this problem with him.
