I received 2 calls as well.  Actually they have been calling me and my parents for MONTHS.  Everytime they call and we call them out.  The company name and area code changes. They must think people are really stupid to fall for that repeatedly.  I have reported each company, but what good does it do if they keep changing their colors????

Caller to my cell phone looking for my daughter. Said he was "Gene Williams from DTA" investigating a fraud case with her name and "social." Don't know how he got my number with her name. The number from which he was calling was 404-973-2108. I verified he was at that number as I returned his call around 10 PM and it went directly to his voice mail. Although the number was different, his message was identical with those in this list of comments.

These guys keep calling my sister threating her with having her arrested and me arrested.

i also got phone calls and so did my mother using info that is hopelessly not right...made all kinds of threats to me and i made some phone calls and the company they say i owe has nothing on the books for me and they have no idea who they are or why they are calling on their behalf...its amazing these ppl are allowed to continue to do this to ppl and get away with it....im real close to getting an attorney and getting them for slander and harrassment....something in this country needs to change before ppl start losing their jobs for phone calls to their work

That they were filing for check fraud from a pay day loan. I never got a pay day loan they said it was from 2005 rude insulting me false accusations. Wouldn't tell me the name of the company

they falsely represent themselves

This man says his name is Jenkins. Very rude and needs to be reported.

I had a message left on my cell phone saying ( I was being investigated for check fraud) and me and my lawyer needed to call within 24 hours!!!! I  recognized the area code of 404 was in Atlanta, GA because my
brother lives in the area. I immediately looked up DTA in Atlanta and came across these messages. Please
someone do something about this!!!!!!!

Received 2 phone calls (one right after the other), from "Mr. Perry" who said he was from DTA Investigation (although the number came up on Caller ID as: 'Unknown Name' with phone number listed as: 404.935.9485 asking for a person whom does not reside here. This 'Mr. Perry' went on to leave all sorts of defamatory accusations about the person he is looking for on his first message. His second message was left for people whom live here but have no clue about why they'd be called in the first place!  
Looking over the internet, I discovered that this company has used different phone numbers all within the same Atlanta, GA. area code of 404, using different variances of DTA Associates, Dorsey Thorton & Associates and the one they used today ... DTA Investigations. All aforementioned companies have received a continued "F" rating from the Better Business Bureau and numerous complaints for harrassing, threatening phone calls and messages to people whom don't even have a clue why they are being called in the first place! These people (DTA Investigations) need to be stopped from running a business and stopped from harrassing innocent people, period!

Someone keeps calling my job by the name of Perry and I keep telling them not to call but keeps calling anyways. What is this about and how do I make it stop becauweI am tried of this crap!
