They call and ask me to verify my social security number.

They called my phone and asked for someone whom is not me, I told him he had the wrong number and he got  pushy and ugly with me.  They are still calling my phone even after I told them they had the wrong number and are calling using a local area code.

Received a call from phone number 317-614-0679 and a really rude woman said she was from a company called Protocol Recovery Service Inc. She wanted me to verify all types of personal information and when I refused because she wouldn't tell me what she wanted it for or who she was, she got really angry and said "Come on, you know how this works" Since I don't know what she is talking about, I asked her to not call my phone again. Remember to not give your information out to anyone.

called and left a call back number in a british accent

got a call today, said unknown name.  I knew better than to answer.

they left a callback number on the voicemail

877-678-0567

This number calls saying "this message is for lori k hartman (not my name). this is not a telemarketing call nor a sales call. this is regarding a personal business match up and then it proceeds to leave a call back number. i tried calling back telling them not to call me and they wereextremely rude and gave no information who they are. this number calls my phone atleast once a day and leaves a voice message every single time. ANNOYING!

This number calls me looking for Jean Riley at 5:30am my time daily. I am not Jean Riley and have repeated myself a thousand times.  nor do I know a Jean riley.  stop freaking calling me.  And they asked me if i was sure because there is noway they would have my number unless i was her. it's a cell phone number ever heard of numbers being regenerated you moron?

Called cell phone and work phone, a sure sign of a collection agency. Yes, I owe a lot of folks money. The original creditors knew the law when they were foolish enough to give my ex a credit card, so either tell them to file suit or GTFO, HAND.

I have been called multiple times from this number. They never leave a message.

This collection agency repeatedly calls my new cell phone asking for someone named Ben, and that isn't me. I have no overdue bills "ypur mama"... you might think about learning to spell before you decide to chastise people. My credit score is 784 and I pay all my bills 2 weeks before they are due. This is a case of mistaken identity, but I can't get them to stop even after calling the office at (770)425-8865. I have sent a letter to cease and desist to: Protocol Recovery Service Inc., 655 Molly Ln. Ste. 120, Woodstock, GA 30189, United States. Time will tell. Good luck to all.

I get calls from this number but there is never a message left.  When I answer they hang up

Keep getting electronic messages left on answering machine.  Seem to be about a specific person with specific case number which has nothing to do with me or anyone at my phone number.

Some messages are very official sounding and threatening.  After the first 5 or 6 calls in one week or so, the electronic voice had a British accent, so no longer the USA sounding voice.  This stuff is very annoying to say the least.

Just another white trash third-rate collection agency/meth lab.

Type correctly, and 'ypur' invectives might have a bit more sting to them.

Pay your bill and you will not get the call

Pay ypur bill and you will not get the call

This is a company called Protocol Recovery they call for outstanding credit balances that are turned over from financial institutions such as Citi Financial, etc....

Recieved a call at 6:57 am on my cell phone. They are calling for my mother who lives in another state and does not have a phone of her own. I do not know how they have my cell phone number. This is most likely a collection agency, considering that this is the 5th collection agency that has called my cell phone looking for my mother.

Alfalfa is correct.
Protocol Recovery is a Collection Agency.
They also use a different number: 310-426-5741

yeah they've called me a couple times and I don't answer.  Now I definitely won't.  Thanks for posting this info.

Getting these calls almost daily....refer to unknown name and asked to call back 877-678-0567.  Person who answers can hardly take down a number.
Told to remove my number....he said he could not find!!! I am on the "do not call" list...what good is that????

3rd call from this number. Spoke to a Mr. Bowen. Trying to collect on an bill. This is the 3rd or 4th company calling to collect on the same account.  I let him know that I will hold him personally responsible to remove the number from their records, and that he would be hearing from me if I get any more calls ;). He said his company wouldn't call again, but he couldn't speak for any other company that picks up the account :(.
We'll see. I did't get it but there's an 800 call back number.

Received calls from this number for two weeks at random hours before finally calling and requesting that they cease and desist. I spoke to a gentleman who apologized and said my number had been removed, however the calls have not stopped.

Anyone have a similar experience?

They've started calling my cell phone - not sure why and I won't pick up or call back.

Recieved a call and system left a voice message, this must a new telemarketer's technique to get you to answer your phone.

called but left no voice mail- will not call back and reply

Received a voice mail call on my cell phone - didn't respond or call back.
