I own my business just opened about 3 Months ago iv had to many to count calls from them . Iv got hung up on and even people getting rude with me after I tell them that this is a business not a resident line. I called back the number and I was very nice and told the lady the story and told her next time I will get lawyers involved and the phone company as while . so far no calls but we will see . Iv started writing numbers down to take with me if they start harassing  me again.

Attn: Everyone. I use to be a collections manager & this is your rights under FDCPA Laws: FDCPA VIOLATION ? CALLING THIRD PARTIES

It is an FDCPA Violation for debt collectors to call third parties (family members/friends, etc.) while attempting to collect a debt.  Debt Collectors oftentimes call third parties as a method of intimidation.  Debt Collectors know that if a family member gives a message to a consumer about a debt collection call the consumer will be terrified about the debt collector calling other third parties.  Fortunately, generally speaking, the FDCPA prohibits calls to third parties and when a debt collector calls them you can usually find an FDCPA violation.

FDCPA Violation ? Harassing or Abusing

It is an FDCPA Violation for debt collectors to harass or abuse consumers while collecting debts.  This is really where the bulk of my work is spent.  Under the FDCPA, if debt collectors abuse or harass someone you have a FDCPA violation.  The question is, what is ?harassment? or ?Abuse??

That is a really good question and really needs to be dealt with on a case by case basis to determine if there is an FDCPA violation.  If the debt collector is simply rude it might not actually account for a FDCPA Violation.  However, if the debt collector steps over the line and becomes outright mean, threatening, or engages in other behavior ? one can usually argue a FDCPA Violation occurred.

I'm getting calls from this # as well & when I called back I told them these rights i was told don't call back & got hung up on. Wait I thought they were looking for me yea right. LOL

They leave harrassing messages on my parents answering machine stating if I don't call their is a warrant for my arrest.

They keep calling my family phones never my phone saying i owe 900 dallors on a payday loan in 2009 that i have 48 hour to call them or i going to jail ive never had loans so must b a scam but these pepple no my name so kinda funny.

This people told me that they are from Georgia and have a warrant coming out on my name for interest on a payday loan that I already settled in court in Missouri.  I tried to get more information and they just hung up. I called the police department in Georgia and they told me to file a report in the state I live in now.  I am filing a report on them and hey Karma is a B*tch! Scam

Keep receiving phone calls from this company looking for someone who doesn't live here and who I do not know.  They are rude and unhelpful when you try to report that they have a wrong number.

I'm not hard to find.  Told them to come and get me.

RECEIVED PHONE CALLS ON TWO DIFFERENT PHONES AT THE SAME TIME FROM THIS NUMBER, THE RECORDING TELLS YOU THAT THEY ARE LOOKING FOR YOU .SCAM SCAM SCAM

These people say they are from Check recovery systems, then the preamble says they are looking for criminals. But when you try to tell them they have the wrong number they become rude and abusive yell and hang up. I am reporting them to Tallahassee FL for being a scam outfit.
