Judging by your grammar, McDonalds is paying yours, sweetie?

Thanks for the info! I went to visit my parents today and had a note waiting for me. Apparently this number had called my father's home (though I have not lived there for 7 years AND his number has changed 2-3times since I was a teenager and listing his phone number as my contact number).
My step-mother thought it was fishy so she tried prying information out of the man as to the business of the call, the company he worked for, where they were located, etc.
He told her that he worked for a PROCESSING COMPANY and that he had found my information on FACEBOOK.
I can NOT wait to call and harass these a**holes tomorrow!

I have definitely received several scam calls from this number.  They try various ploys.  They've lately been asking about my husband's mother, and then giving me her alleged name. This isn't/wasn't her name, and in addition, she died over 20 years ago!

They have also called "from ATT" asking to update our business information.  They called from Cox Cable about our late (not) cable bill.

It seems they are trying to get information, and I don't know if it's to get fake credit cards, or to actually try to get money from us.  

The worst part for me is that we don't use a cell phone very often, so we have a "pay as you go phone."  These people have run up over $25 in charges on our phone bill, which our cell company apparently can't reimburse.    Bummer.  We've changed that number now!

calling people that the think are related to me.Calling these people. Because they left my first and last name those people got my number and called very upset that they were getting call for me. I called the comapny told them to remove those people and there numbers she lady said ok and i told them i want it in writing that they have been removed and the rude lady said i can not send you anything in writing.

This company called people who has  the same last name as me left info about including my first and last name. When i told the company none of these people where related they stated they were. I think I know who my family is. When i told them all of those numbers  be removed because as they found this info the people who the company called then in returned called me because the company left my name and were not happy that the got a call from the accerated Financial Services when i called them and told them that these people we not to be contact and all numbers be removed the lady said she would ,but when i asked to get something in writing she responded i can not send you something in writing. Then the said i was getting ready to go to court. My response was I'll see you in court. I will be calling the portsmith courts to report this company.

they called my dad first got him so upset he spent 3 days in the hospital  somthing about a computer they said i bought at a well known buisness i want to sue them but they wont give any info

pay  your bills then

I received a calll from these idiots, and they were asking for the name of an individual who sexually assualted my daughter!!!  They swore that he left this (my) number as an alternate number to call.  Bull Sh*t!  I called them on it and said that the S O B is in prison for what he did.  Instead of apologizing, and admitting their company made a mistake, this bimbo insisted that they were a legitimate company trying to reach this guy.  

Icalled her and idiot, a SOB and told her never to call this number again.  Can you believe the jack a** had the audacicity to ask me to give her the name of the prison he was in.  I told her to Google his name, it's public information, unlike the phone number of a minor who's been assaulted.  

I hope she friggin got hit by a car on her way home!

I got a call from this number. They would not give me any info what the call was about. I told the girl to go f*** herself and hung up. Everyone else should do the same.

A bill collector asking for my husband's deadbeat ex-wife. The woman caller was polite, and when I told her "Rosalee" was my husband's ex-wife she offered to take my phone number off their calling list. (Fat chance that will happen!) At least she was polite.

Sophia called asking about info on my dad. When I asked what company she worked for & why she was calling me she said she was protected by federal law & didn't need to give me info. I asked her again & she hung up. I called back,asking for Sophia. I was transfered twice & the b!Tc# who answered knew my name. I asked same q's & got same answers. I told her not to call me again & she implied that the only reason I had called was to harass her. She stated that if I ever call again I will b charged w/ harassment & hung up. What a joke rot in hell.

The company called me after not being able to contact my dad who lives in another state. The caller had an accent and her line had static. When I asked her who she was she told me it was Sophia. I then asked what company she was with and how she got my info. She said she was protected by federal law and wasn't allowed to give out any info. Then she hung up!.I called back & someone else answered, I asked for Sophia & was put on hold. The next person I spoke to knew my name without me telling her and asked what I was calling for. I got the same federal law protection speech from her. I told her not to call me again & asked her questions about her company. She then got very rude & said I was only calling to harass her. She then stated that if I ever call again I will be charged w/ harassment. What a joke. This company is a bunch of pukes.

You have to be o e those people to ha an l teresin defendinv them, and laugh about it. People. Don't trust this guy he is one of them.

DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR BANK ACCT NUMBERS!  They are hoping that people will get scared enough and will give them any info they want.  Close your bank acct if you did give any info. Report to your Atty General and  also the FTC.  And contact a lawyer specializing in these areas.  There really ARE people who can help.

Thank you, Howard, for taking the time to investigate as you did AND to post your findings here for the rest of us.  There is also a "process server" at 304-205-0244 (West Virginia)  that says the person being served MUST be home at (specific date) to accept the summons to court.   I don't think that is the way things are done but, if so, then all criminals would be hot-footing it out of town when the server shows up. Right?
Thank you again.

Received a call asking to speak to EH, my mother-in-law. She has never lived with us or, as for as I know, you my address for any purposes. I suspect my dead beat sister-in-law may have directed these vulture's in our direction. I called them back once, and have not heard from them since. Used the same tactics: case number, urgent, no information who they are....TELLING TO SAY THE LEAST.

Thank you for your information!    I have never given my son-in-law or his phone # as a reference on anything, but he is the one they called first - then they called my #.     After reading your post, I'm going to go back and make sure my phone # is on the do-not-call registry (I put it on there a year ago).  But after reading your post and several others' posts, I certainly not going to waste my time by calling them.  If you do come up with any further info, please let me know.  My email is sunniione2008@gmail.com.  Again, many thanks!

harrassing calls to family members

Just got off the phone with Ashley Butler's "supervisor" *, something to do with "something" I supposedly did/charged or some such in 2008.
Refused to release SSN or partial of same. Threatened with "legal action".

Am still in the dark...

I recieved a call from this number 1-757-392-2094. The message had a case number and the lady on the phone said she had some documents fixing to leave her office and wanted me to know the seriousness of this issue. I called back and she told me about two different credit cards that I owned but the dates were wrong and I have not used those cards since 2204. Is this a legit company or a hoax? She told me she was giving me to 7:30 this evening to make arrangements paying a debt or she would be sending my paperwork to an lawyer. This company does not accept checks the only way they would take a payment is to be debited out of your account.

It's because Aaron Lutz owes a s*** ton of money. They called me and my step brother's ex wife that I never met! I think I'll call Aaron right now and tell him to pay his damn bills

Also got a call from Marci and she is just a rude rude rude person. She hung up on me while trying to get information.

In the world of Bottom Feeding Debt Collectors, These folks have scrounged old debts from the files of other collectors.  Some of these debts are valid, Some of these debts are paid but not marked as such.  As a creditor, they are not bound by the same rules as telemarketers.  Just because you have no relation to the debt, does not excuse from getting the annoying phone calls.  I even went so far as to put the bottom feeding collection agency in touch with the actual debtor.  I stood in front of him while he gave them his correct contact information and made arrangements to pay the debt.  I received a call 2 days from the same company.  

These people are annoying, but if no laws are violated, there is nothing we can do.

Accelerated Financial Solutions LLC

They are a debt collection/resolution company.  They called me looking for my former sister-in-law.  I've been divorced from her brother for almost 10 years, remarried, moved to a different state and changed my last name.  I was extremely annoyed that they bothered me and demanded to know why they would call me and where they got my number from.  They refused to give me specifics. Ruthless.

the law is actually not to call before 8am ... & they do offer a toll free number if asked for one :) it's called skipsearching previous addresses and comparing last names to eventually get in contact with the DEBTOR  my friend works there you have no case dear :) they can call you for 60 days consecutively if they want as long as they are only calling once a day it's not considered harrassment so this post sounds very silly to act like you are going to get 'paid' because you were called twice on 2 different days. & sadly in the world of internet no one has privacy

Got 2 calls in 2 consecutive days at 8am...Calls were for my exhusband who has never used this number and as a different last name than me (I went back to my maiden name after our divorce 14 years ago!!)....I knew it was a collection agency by the messages left...I'm an excollector and they violated the following the FDCPA by calling before 9am, and not leaving a toll-free number to call them back at...They are in Virginia, and I'm in Oregon...I'm calling a lawyer and getting paid!...As an excollector I understand the importance of people paying their debts (which I do)...As a private citizen with no deliquent debts, I value my privacy...

Got a call from this # from Marci Senior, ext 316, who said there was a file in her office for review with my name on it.  Asked for a call back before "further processing" takes place.  Left a file # also.
800-notes shows this # belonging to Accelerated Financial Solutions, a debt collector.

I got a phone call from Brittany at 757-392-2094 saying she needed to contact my mom about some preliminary documents and even had a case #.  Seemed fishy since facts and dates didn't add up.  I guess the 'no call list' doesn't pertain to these people.

A little research was done by myself and all information obtained is within this report: it has been a few days but:
I too received a call from 757-392-2094 at 8:47am, and no message was left. The Caller ID captured their Number & I returned the call.  A lady answered with "how may I direct your call", I stated "I didn't know" and informed her they had called me.  I was asked what my name was, I replied with "what company are you with", she dodged the question and instead stated "We Are A Preliminary Hearings Paper Filer" and then asked "is Josh Martin there"; I asked her "Who is that?" the lady then stated "we're sorry, we have called the wrong number" and hung up on me.

I ran a search on the number 757-392-2094 on 7/27/2011 after the call; the results are as follows:
Line Type: Land-line
Phone Carrier: Kmc Telecom of Virginia, Inc.
Country: USA
City: Portsmouth City
State: Virginia
County: Portsmouth City
Latitude: 36.8400
Longitude: -76.3200
Owner information for this number and cellphones associated with this number are not apart of public records.

Being that It's common knowledge if someone is going to file paperwork for a preliminary hearing, this would be done from an office of the court, so;

I have contacted the City Council in Portsmouth City, Virginia by e-mail (council@portsmouthva.gov) and have not yet received response concerning the matter. This is why I waited to post the report. When and If I get a response from them, it will be posted here in a separate report.

I have also contacted Portsmouth Circuit Court in Virginia by phone at (757) 393-8671: The gentleman who answered was made aware of my location, the phone call mentioned above and the possible fraud. The gentleman asked for the phone number and I gave it to him. I then asked the gentleman: "Do you have a Preliminary Hearings Paper Filing office at phone number (757) 392-2094"; the gentleman's repose was as follows:

"No, If there were any papers to be filed, our office would handle that".

He wanted me to talk to someone else about the call and transferred me to a lady's extension. I started over and told that lady about it, she asked me for the number I gave it to her. I stated to her that I believe it to be a fraud against their court and her immediate response was as follows:

"No, it's not!"

The lady then asked for the number again. I got as far as 75739 and was interrupted with "You have called the wrong number this is area code 757 not 753; You need to call 753 area code". I then asked if I could be transferred back to the man who transferred met to her and she stated: "I can't, I don't know who that is", i told her good day and ended the call.

"I could not believe Portsmouth City Virginia courts disregard on the issue; with that conversation I'm beginning to believe the lady at that number doesn't care that someone is calling around the country pretending to provide services for the court of Virginia to obtain people's private information, or she is in on it; that's just my opinion."  

Simply for the sake of knowing where the VA court wanted me to address this issue to; I called an operator in Virginia at (757) 555-1212; then asked "Where is area code 753 located at?"; the response I got from AT&T was: "That area code is not located anywhere within the United States", which was surprising; you think it would at least be somewhere right? For verification of this nonexistent area code you may call directory assistance and/or 1, the area code, followed by 555-1212.

The Virginia Circuit Court by way of 2 different employees conflicting personal statements, claims that it is both:
a) not a number designated for a preliminary hearings filing office for the court; and
b) that is also not a fraud being perpetrated

I say if this number calls you, do not give them any information about yourself, after all, the Virginia Court System didn't even know who they are...

If you wish to address area code 757 for the possible fraud being committed the email address of city council & phone number of the Virginia Court are within this report... Take care of yourself and be absolutely certain a company's authentic before handing over your personal information.
Someone calling your house and asking for information about you constitutes a search and seizure and is a violation of your Constitutional rights without a warrant, Just hang up, you do have the right to remain silent.

Hope I have been of some help

Got a voice mail saying to call them back about a file. File number in the message was wrong. When I called back, they asked for my social, which I would not give until they told me why they were calling me. They got really rude and demanded to know why I wouldn't give them my information. Got "ma'am"-ed a lot. Then they hung up on me.
