Recieved a call from Carlo Reyes. He said he represented Metlife recovery and was calling to collect an over payment. Contacted Metlife and they were unaware.  When I searched the number it was listed to Brown and Joseph

Recently I've been getting a lot of scam calls and today I heard from our good friend "Bob" and he told me that border patrol and customs were going to come after me for over $100,000 if I didn't deal with him today. Needless to say, this guy isn't legit. I kept his voicemail for a laugh though.

They called today, 4/2/2014, at approximately 9:11 am eastern DST. The man gave his name as Carlos Camara from Zurich Insurance. Said there was a claim submitted and paid to my start-up business Health Matters, LLC and they will be asking for a refund. I just started the business and have not been able to advertise successfully enough to get clients, there are NO CLIENTS, so therefore, no work, and no charges or payments. How could there be a claim? Then he quoted an address from Maryland. I am nowhere in that vicinity, and this business is not registered in Maryland, so it is obviously not me. When I looked up the number, it listed as Brown and Joseph and not Zurich Insurance as the caller claimed.

A fast talking, unprofessional sounding man, calling himself "Bob Labuda"  from this phone number left a message on my phone today telling me that I owed money, and then threatened that if I don't call back right away, law suit will be filed for breach of contract, and so on and so forth. I haven't a clue what he was talking about.  With a name like that I should have known it is a scam.  He better not call back when I am here.  He will know what God he is serving.

Caller ID says Brown and Joseph. Calls and doesn't leave message.
I never answer calls from callers I don't know. If it's all that important you'd leave a message.
If it was legit? You'd leave a message...
Sounds like a scam from what I'm seeing here.

I feel neglected!  They phoned BUT did not leave a msg!!!!!  Here is the hoot, for me......the debt they are trying to collect on is from 1991---when I was in a car accident and hospitalized for 10 months--with an additional year for complete recovery.  YES---I DID meet with consumers credit counseling--who phoned ALL of the credit card companies that I dealt with.......Here it is, 2013....21 yrs later.....and they started calling again!  This is my very honest to goodness phonecall from this group----and if you were to report them....say to an attorney who goes after these folks---YOU wil get $1000 for the harrasment call--and the attorney you get--one who specializes in these sort of outside the stature of limitations on debt---the attorney will get his/her fee FROM this company-----you make money, this company loses money!  Simple and sweet!  

One piece of advice, however---DO NOT CONVERSE WITH THEM!!!!!  IF you talk about a specific debt with them---you have re-opened your case by default!!!!  If they leave you a msg---record it for posterity.  IF htye do not leave a msg---you can still report the phone call telephone number, date and time......(thank goodness for caller ID).....if they find you well enough to send something in the mail---order that new dress, or new game for your phone-----send it to the FREE ATTORNEY who specializes in harrassment calls about debt that is WAY beyond the 'collectible years'......and wait for your $1000 check.....It is $1000 PER collector company!!!!!

Received a call from this company this morning. The caller did his very best to sound intimidating and asked if I owned the company. I asked for his name with no response. I then asked for a company name and call back number. Again, no response. I then politely informed this person that I had passed away peacefully.. He has not called back.

This number has called me several times, offering last chance to call back 'today' and avoid filing of law suit for some bill that is unclear in origin.  They sound ill prepared, uneducated, everything that a 'real' lawyer is not.  They are the worst kind of phone harassers.  Just disregard them and they will eventually go away.

I too received a threatening voice mail from "Bob Labuda," saying he had a client who was considering suing me for breach of contract and that I should call him back right away and "his secretary would put me right through to him."

I should note that I am not in collections with any creditor nor do I have any contracts out there, breached or unbreached. It's also important to know I have received no official correspondence from anyone regarding debts or lawsuits. That was actually the red flag. Legal action requires the physical serving of papers, something I confirmed with both my local Better Business Bureau and the Illinois Consumer Protection Agency, to whom I intend to report these scoundrels forthwith.

I wonder how many people have been snookered by this weird scam.

*******************************REPORT THEM FOR  HARASSMENT********************************************
This is a collection agency who is trying to use scare tactics to try and collect a debt. I used to work for them and they are not on the up and up. Everything they say is BS and they are breaking every law in the book because they know that most will not report them although many have filed complaints against them via the BBB. They change their schemes from client to client and many times they claim they are a LAW FIRM (illegal) to really perpetuate the fear. Where we are located in Elk Grove Village, IL

BROWN & JOSEPH
-Credit and Collections Firm-

Commercial Collections For A New Economy

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results.

Since the beginning of accounts receivable collection, collection agencies and debt recovery law firms have approached collections in the same manner. Collection agencies send letters and make phone calls, but cannot sue debtors. So when collection actions fail they forward the cases to an attorney with the intent to file suit, which results in increased contingency fees and the addition of court costs.

In 1996, Brown & Joseph realized the economic environment was changing and debtors had become more informed about circumventing the collection and legal process. With change, a new approach to accounts receivable recovery was needed. Industry experts were sought out, employed and given the task to create a new and innovative approach. An approach that would provide solutions to the age old methods employed by collection agencies and attorneys.

The results of their expertise is Brown & Joseph?s new bad debt recovery process that blends credit risk assessment, the operations and technology of a collection agency with the impact of law office contingency collections at the same contingency fee range that you pay now to your collection agency!

Why pay a collection agency when you can get the impact of a law firm for the same contingency fee you pay now to your agency and increase recoveries an average of 10-15% higher!

Specializing in commercial collections, Brown & Joseph, Ltd. is a leading commercial debt collection agency.

A fast talking, unprofessional sounding man from this phone number left a message on my phone today telling me that I owed money, and then threatened that if I don't call back right away, my name will be added to a list. I haven't a clue what they're talking about, and I feel this is harassment. Aren't there Federal laws protecting people from this?
