My daughter got a call from these people.  She said they were very rude.  They called from 877-306-1807 and cited a case number.  She warned me by text, and I received a message shortly after this.  The message was rude, and after looking them up, I found that there was a lot of information regarding this company and fraud. The complaints said that they would not give their location or the source of the summons or any other info.  They just demanded money immediately.   I am not sure if they will harass me or not. I do not trust this as it not what normal collection agencies do.

How do I get them to leave me alone?

      When a company sells their debt, they gave up on the person and believe they will never recoup the funds.  Thats why this tactic is used.  Why do people have to scam people to pay their bills?  Why cant people just pay?

        what debt collectors can and can't do.  Those that violate the law generally have a reason for choosing to do so, such as:
        1)  It pays, since you can threaten and con people into paying money they don't owe
        2)  It saves on phone calls and time, since you can get money from the wrong people
        3)  It gets around the fraudulent nature of some "payday loans" made by unlicensed overseas "lenders" who cram "loans" without authorization as a con
        4)  None of that "validation" stuff.  Who needs to get paperwork, which the fly-by-night "lender" who sold the "loan" won't send you anyway
        5)  It bypass that nasty problem of padding a "loan" with "spiff money" to buy your drugs this weekend

        Why do companies choose to scam? replies to Rick
        Probably something wrong with the "loan", like it's fake, or they're actually contacting the wrong people, and they know it.

    So is it a scam or not?
    Is it a true debt collector that just uses bad collection practices?  A friend of mine keeps receiving calls from them

      Total scam operation.  Look at the other notes.  If enough complaints are made to the NY Attorney General they will be put out of business.   Don't pay one dime to anyone who cold calls you demanding money.  Demand a debt validation letter be sent to you by US mail.  E-mail no good.  They don't do this(and they won't) simply block their calls and ignore them.

      Report them:

      Also contact your local attorney general

      If they continue to bother you, 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.

        Yeah, right... replies to George
        And this trivial payment of an old "debt" was so important you took the trouble to post your little story here.
        If what you say is true, then what you say isn't true.

    having a good laugh
    Just spoke with a "Henry" on the phone who was looking for someone who he said was associated with my husband? I was at work when the original call came in and they spoke to my 13 yr old daughter and scared her to death. She said I have to call them right away and there is a case number. When I called back to advise not to call my home again and my husband has no affiliation with this person and not to call this number again, he became extremely rude and called me an idiot! He would not let me talk to a manager, because I assume their are probably 2 people working their. They are a total SCAM! I would not give them any information. "Henry gave me a good laugh today" I hope he calls back! I am going to file a complaint against them.
    And the message from Andree I am guessing is from one of their scammers!!

    I'm glad I read up on this
    My husband has been getting the same phone calls last year and a guy said he was coming to serve him the papers and no one came. Now today we gotgotanother phone call from a  lady leaving a msg saying this is his last chance to pay up and gave 2 case numbers and said some one will be coming to serve him papers???Really !!! You said that last year and no one came. Thank you all so much for your comments it gave me ease. Andrea obviously is stupid or part of the plan. Idiot.

    SCAM!!  I received cell phone call last week.  This moron also called my mother, my aunt and my in-laws, all of whom live out of state.  The next day they called my neighbor and my brother in law.  Report the number to FTC and BBB.
    @LOL it is a scam.  I'm sure that most people pay their bills.  Process servers do not call before they serve someone papers.

    These idoit people called my boss and my co-worker and me saying they were going to serve me papers for some kind of case that has been filed against me. If I get ahold of them, I am going to tell them that I am getting a lawyer and filing a compliant on them for harrasment.  They can't be blowing up my phone at work. I am livid.
