THEY ALL WORK TOGETHER WITH CRSI AND JACOBSON AND ASSOCIATES!! THEY ARE FAKE AND WILL SAY ANTHING TO GET MONEY FROM YOU!! DONT GIVE THEM ANY MONEY!! THEY CALL ME EVERYDAY AND MAKE THREATS TO ME AT WORK!! THEY ARE THE FRAUDS!!

Called my friends house asking them to call them back about an investigation.  I called back and got cussed out by a total a**hole.  I owe nothing to anyone, these people need to be prosecuted, this can't be legal.

Got a call from this number at my job saying I owned a payday loan from 3 years ago from a company that is now out of business. I talked to a lady named Mrs. Casey and her rude supervisor. They said that they called my bank and said that my check did not cover the loan. I asked the lady for the website for the payday loan (didn't work) and when l asked her supervisor he said there was no website.

CRSI pushed me over the limit. They Insulted me to my co-workers, including the CEO of the company I work for.  Whatever.  Called my dad (who is an a***ole to people like this) questioning him about me, and threatening me.  He blew them off.  Cool.  When they finally called my mother, who is a manic depressive, and fed her the same bit of crap about the potential of me being arrested for check fraud, she started calling me crying, begging me to do whatever is neccesary to keep me from getting locked up.  That was it.  I have contacted, and filed reports and complaints with the FTC, FCC, IC3, DEA, and local law enforcement.

CRSI called today When I told them I would pay anything I owed and asked them to send me documentation of what I owed.  Specifically the original debt plus any payments I made on the account. He told me "he wasn't going to waste paper on me unless I agreed to send him $375.00 by tomorrow.  I told him I wouldn't pay anything until he sent me the documentation.  He finally said for me to "quit wasting his time" and hung up on me.

They called me tonight and said that I tricked my husband by getting a loan in his name.  Practically accused me of adultery.   Yelled at me and I said you can talk to my husband.  Then Tina, his "supervisor" got on the phone and was also rude!  Isn't there a law against against this?

I also received a call from crs in the past and the gentleman was so rude. He was yelling in the phone and would not listen to me when I was explaining I owed no money.   I googled crs and they are scammers!!!  I told him to leave me alone.   So today i get another call which i will just ignore.  They left a voice message and i will not call them or answer any foreign area codes that come across my cell phone.

they have a location out of California as well.  Mr. Daniel Smythe has been calling me too.

Handling Abusive Collection Agencies
We?ve all experienced financial distress at one point or another. Unexpected bills, loss of employment and pay cuts can all affect our monthly expenditures and force us to tighten the purse strings a bit. Sometimes we even fall into debt with our creditors, and that is when the collection agencies start calling.

According to statistics released by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), there are more complaints lodged every year about abusive collection agencies than about all other businesses combined. Government agencies are flooded with reports of threats, harassment and inappropriate phone calls from collection agencies nationwide.

Although collection agencies are governed by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), many still seem to slip through the cracks, and a large part of this is because people don?t realize that they have rights when it comes to debt collections. Even when consumers owe money to one or more entities, they still have law on their side when it comes to harassment, and it is important for individuals to stand up for those rights.

Most likely, you will be contacted by phone concerning the debt, and this may be either at your home or place of work. When you receive the first phone call and you feel that you?ve been mistreated, calmly tell the debt collector that you do not want them to call again. Explain that you have rights under the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act, and that you are invoking them as of that phone call. Advise them that future correspondence must be conducted through the mail.

Many times, this will work, and you will never receive another phone call, but if the debt collector persists, you will have to put it in writing. Compose a letter to the collection agency informing them of your desire not to be contacted by phone, and send it by certified mail. Keep a copy of the letter for your records.

Once the collection abuse has reached this point, you should begin to create a paper trail. Every time that the collection agency calls, write down the substance of the conversation in a notebook designated as a call log. Note the date and time of the phone call, the debt collector to whom you speak, what was said during the conversation, and whether or not the situation was resolved. This is something you will need later if this ever progresses to court.

Your next step will be to contact the FTC, the Better Business Bureau and your state?s Attorney General to make a note of the situation. Inform all three agencies that you are being contacted illegally by a credit agency. Although none of these entities will personally fight your battle, your complaint will be noted and used if several similar complaints are given.

You are also legally allowed to record conversations with a collection agency as long as you inform the debt collector that you are taping it. Recorded conversations can be used in court if it ever progresses that far, and many do.

You should also read up on the statue of limitations on debt in your state......its really important to understand everything.

These people are very rude and called me at work. I called back to speak to a Daniel Smythe as instructed to on the voice msg at my job. What a waste of time, he tried to act like he was some attorney and had me under investigation. I told him he is not allowed to call my work ever again and that I saved his msg. He responded by saying, good luck to me. #Pointless!

GUY CALLED ASKING FOR ME BY THE NAME OF BRIAN MEDINA AND STATED HE IS WITH CRSI LEGAL DEPARTMENT. HE STATED I HAVE AN ONLINE INTERNET ACCOUNT WITH BEST BUY AND PAYMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $2896.25 WAS OVERDUE AND TO TAKE OUT MY CHECK BOOK AND MAKE A PAYMENT IMMEDIATELY. I INFOMED THE GENTLEMAN THAT I HAD NO ACCOUNT WITH BEST BUY AND HE IMMEDIATELY BECAME RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL. I TOLD HIM IF HE HAS ANY MORE QUESTIONS OR COMPLAINTS HE CAN CONTACT MY ATTORNEY WITH HIS NUMBER AND HE HASN'T CALLED BACK SINCE.

I to had a message left regarding my daughters debt. They told me i was a horrible mother and that i must have taught her to pay her bills. I called and lodged a complaint with the ftc and now have my attorney involved. The ftc saysdo not pay them anything they sound like scamers.

Called claiming to be an investigator for a tenant we had.  Problem was that we don't have any tenants or rentals and the "tenants" address was our home address.  Super shady.  Won't be returning the call.

very rude a guy named richard called he was talking to my staff really nasty and he hung up in our face

When I answered nobody was there.

This is a credit collection agency calling about debt owed.  Very rude and they violate every law there is in regards to debt collection via phone.  They will use google, relatives phone numbers...anything they can get their hands on....then they will harass them until they give up a phone number for the person in debt to the company paying them to collect.

I just got a call from the same number. The person you called had a womens voice. She was telling me I need to do something to pay off this loan form payday1. I tried to talk her that at this time I don't have a job. She puts some man on the phone who tells me that I'm sitting on money and need to pay off this loan. I wish I could have pulled him thru the phone line and asked him where all this money is. They also said that the company here as with has moved to some was else in Californal and have a new phone number. If so why would you not sent letters out to people and leave them know this before you call them and this BS again.

They called my phone. Interested in correcting my credit report, I responded to the recording by pressing 1 on my keypad. The person who answered said "How can I help you?" To which, of course, my response was "You called me!". I asked the rep what they were calling in reference to and he told me BMG music service. A subscription I had cancelled years ago. So after asking him 3 times to send me detailed information regarding this charge, he forwarded me to a manager. A man named Eric answered the phone very rudely and went on a rant about how I should know what they were calling for etc. Come to find out it was from some payday loan NOT BMG music service. Mind you, this debt is from 2007, it is now March 2011 (if you are just now contacting me to resolve this matter.. after all of these years, of course I'm going to need a refresher on what company this is from) So he finally says the name of the company they are collecting for. I say, "Ok sir is there a payment plan we can set up, how can I pay you? " He ignores my statement and goes into asking who I bank with. That information is unnecessary because all it will result in is them attempting to take the money from my accounts before I authorize it leaving me with overdraft and returned check fees. After asking him is there a phone number that I can call them back on to make payment or begin a payment plan on Friday (when money should be available) he began to yell and scream at me at the top of his lungs. Saying that I do not listen and do not know how to take responsibility for my actions, etc. I hung up and called back expecting to speak with a more sane individual, as I am interested in erasing this mess from my credit report. He picked up the phone again and began the nonsense once again. So I hung up again and called back to again find out the company name or speak to someone else.. this time a lady answered, I politely asked her "What's the name of your company" she said "Who is this?" and said that I was harassing THEM!??!?! and that I had called 10 times? That they would call the police, etc. I am an upstanding individual and citizen who just happened to forget about a bill in the midst of moving but I am being harassed like some deviant. This company should not be allowed to conduct collections on moral grounds ALONE! They took me out of my character, I said a couple of foul words to the man, but hey, after you have been talked to by someone as if you are trash, you would be offended and angry too! They also have information about me that they could not have gotten directly from me, especially my cell phone number because I didn't even have this number at that time. I honestly wish this company would take this matter to my local court so I can resolve it in a civil manner.

said he is from a law firm of W. Russel Feilds..a courtisy call.

Called my work and disclosed that he was going to garnish my wages to one of my co-workers.

Stop This harassment.......................

Scam for sure, and a sloppy one at that.  I'm in a local Mensa group - fully volunteer driven - and they left me a message about of my "employees" which was someone else in the group.  Obviously harvested from the local group website.  Planning on calling back and finding out what my "employee" has done wrong!

How to Handle Abusive Collection Agencies

When faced with an abusive collection agency, your best course of action is to be proactive. Unless you begin documenting your experiences from the beginning, you won?t have enough information to protect yourself.

First of all, you must be informed. Do some research on debt collection laws in your state as well as the federal laws set forth by the FDCPA. Know what constitutes abusive behavior, and what the procedures are for battling the abuse. Having a full understanding of the laws surrounding debt collection will make you better prepared to handle it in the future.

Most likely, you will be contacted by phone concerning the debt, and this may be either at your home or place of work. When you receive the first phone call and you feel that you?ve been mistreated, calmly tell the debt collector that you do not want them to call again. Explain that you have rights under the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act, and that you are invoking them as of that phone call.

Richard called my work place and claimed to want to collect on a bill I owed.  I gave him my cell phone number and asked him to call me after work.  He got very rude, ask to talk to my supervisor and then said they would could continue calling until he got to talk to someone.  He hung up on me and then called back and said I had hung up on him.  I put our secretary on the phone and he ask her if she was my mama.  She told him not to call anymore and hung up.

855-634-2107 and 916-233-1482 keeps calling for wife about bad check from 3 yrs ago.
BIG SCAM DONOT PAY THEM ANYTHING OR GIVE ANY PERSONAL INFO!

THEY WILL RAPE YOUR ACCOUNT!

very annoying and next time they call i will give them an ear full of foul mouthed annoyance with them and impatience.

I thought I had gotten rid of these guys but this number just called me and here they are CRSI. See notes under 916-331-5116 and 916-233-1482. Scumbags that do not follow the law.

Keep getting calls on my work desk phone from 855-634-2107 and was recieveing them from an international number as well. They keep saying its about a bad check to my bank issue. The funny thing is I havent written a check in years all debits here and the bank has no record of this issue.

I have successfully blocked my calls to my cell phone but its truly annoying...

These people keep calling and I have told them to stop....I don't know what they want but I don't owe them anything
