None of my friends or family block their # or name when they call and neither do legitimate businesses.  
This company called me today and came up in my caller ID as Unavailable and the phone number was "1".   Suspicious already.  "Kayla" left a message saying that she was calling from California Business Bureau and that I need to call back to this number, ext 286 and ask for Rose.  
Like I said above, if they were a legitimate business, their ID information would pop up in Caller ID.  Because they are blocking I am not responding.

I've been contacted by them, I live in the UK, am not sure why they are trying to contact me, I've never even been to California of  holiday??? In the UK, it is illegal to harass some one by phone for money, and it is illegal for them to discuss your debt with anyone, or to call at your house at unreasonable hours or at work. If they do, not only are they in trouble facing a fine or worse, but the debt is quashed. She called saying she was from the WQ

Hi does anyone have any idea why I am getting these calls from this number as I live in Scotland and my number is a uk number . I don't have a passport and have never been to America and don't know anyone over there . So why are these idiots calling me at all hours . Guess it's time to block calls from abroad .

I just received a call from them and googled the number. The entire line where they say "California Business Bureau" is a ploy to intimidate you and have them call.  I got a message from Mayra sounded bitchy. It's a good thing I checked otherwise they won't stop calling my cell. They do specialize in medical bills. I just took care of a mix up but it was too late so city of hope reported me them.

My husband just received a call from an unknown number on his cell while at work. He took the call and the woman on the other end didn't say where she was calling from but that a representative had spoken with "your girlfriend Desiree" and apparently I made some arrangements for a bill to be paid(NEVER HAPPENED). The bill in question is from a hospital stay back in 2007! And apparently that's when they talked to me. I wasn't even his number one contact at the time. His mother had checked him in and out of the hospital he stayed at. I don't understand why they would be calling NOW to say we owe $6,000. Another thing, nothing has ever hit either of our credit reports saying we owe money. My husband said he wasn't in the position to send money or take down a number at the moment. The woman said she would call back with their info. She left him a voice mail with this number, (800) 755-1515.

Can't squeeze blood out of a turnip. By the time they call you to collect they have already screwed up your credit - even if it is bogus. Don't call them back and certainly do not give them any personal information.

Got a call from this same number today. Called me twice, but it didn't show in my call log, which is weird. Some lady said call back and gave me an extension. I don't plan on calling back, and if it continues to happen, I will find a way to block their calls.

A lady left a message and stated that she was from the CALIFORNIA BUSINESS BUREAU. This is a collection agency. Do not call them. I tried to explained to her that it was not me the person they claim owed them money. They treated me like a criminal anyway. Seems like they specialized in medical bills.

THIS IS A COLLECTION AGENCY. IF YOU WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE A CRIMINAL, CALL THEM.

A guy named Andrew called on my cell (the number shows up as private/unknown on the caller ID), left a message with a name of a person to call him on his extension.  Did not state what compnay or organization he is calling from.  I googled the number "(800) 755-1515", and it came up with a few results. It is apparently a collection agency called California Business Bureau located in Monrovia, CA. They seem to specialize in collecting unpaid medical bills.

Today I call a call from a guy named Anthony from California Business Bureau and they said they were trying to collect on a medical bill I had last year. Asked him to mail me all the information that is in reference to this matter so as of today he will be sending me the info but I'm thinking of contacting the hospital and see if they can work with me because from what I'm reading here I don't really want to deal with them. They don't sound very legit.

A woman from an "unavailable" number called and left a message saying this is Angela from California Business Bureau call me back at 800-755-1515 extension 260.  She spoke very fast so I could hardly understand the message and left no details as to why she called.  I returned the call, and asked the receptionist for Angela.  When Angela picked up the phone I identified myself and she said, "Wrong number" and hung up on me.  Suspicious of phishing or fraud I called back and told the receptionist that I want to be removed from any sales calls list or whatever kind of scam they are running there.  I have never had any medical bills in my life.  I think they got my information somehow and were trying to confirm that they have the phone number of a real person.

Thank you Fogarty for your great post! Information is the real power here. The people calling you (like collection agent John Logan) are not lawyers. They are not financial advisers. Odds are they are uneducated, bullys who are getting commission to say whatever they want to get to your money- sounds almost like the exiled, rich, Nigerian Prince email scams that people get.

Do not let them bully you or yell at you. That is wholly inappropriate. If they were interested in conducting business in a professional manner, they would not act so unprofessional.

Each state has their own laws for helping patients pay their medical bill collections. It is for people with or without insurance. Basically- you usually only have to pay roughly 30% of the left over amount. Google the laws for your state. To make it worse for the collection agency--you can go streight to the medical provider and offer them even less and making payments-- then the collection agency gets nothing. You do not have go through the collection agency.

Do not give them any of your account information!!! Ever! If you already have, contact the agency and the bank in writing immediately and let them know that the account is not eligible for AFT (automatic funds transfer) etc, that the collection agency is doing this without your consent and that it must stop immediately. Depending on the bank (if you have never allowed the collection agency to withdraw funds but they did anyway) you can demand the bank reverse the fraudulent charges and credit your account. Then report the agency for wire fraud, misc fraud, etc.

As this is an unsecured debt, they are far behind other secured debts like auto loan or mortgage in the chain of command. Secured debts always get paid first and they know that.

Odds are that they have already reported this debt to the credit reporting agencies so it doesn't really help your credit score to pay off the debt anyway. But I am sure they will say it will- again, they are not lawyers or financial advisers.

If you do want to make the payment to them, Tell them to send you something in writing regarding your specific account that they are willing to "permanently delete" any credit reporting upon any payment before you will even discuss your account with them. Odds are that they will say that they can't do that, only their manager who is away from his office right now, can do that.

Basically, you have rights that they do not tell you about or want you to know about. If you know your rights, they can not bully you.

I hope this helps someone.

I've heard alot of threats about these debt collectors garnishing wages and wiping your account clean. If you don't give them your accnt information, do they still have the ability to do so? If they do take legal matter as far as taking me to court, what will they get out of me if I don't have money at all? Lastly, if I file bankruptcy, will they still be able to call me or collect this debt?
