Got a call today. Tried to tell me I was late on my mortgage. Blah blah blah... Never heard of those suckers before.
Don't buy a word of what they tell you! So illegal!

I've had calls from this number demanding payment and threatening to ruin my credit. Hoax, big time hoax.

Got a call from this number today, 2/10/14.  They didn't leave the name of their company.  Someone needs to crack down on this fraud.  I'm glad I was able to google the number and find that so many people had been fraudulently contacted by this group.
Seriously, fraudsters.  Get a job.  Get a life.  Get off welfare.  Stop living like animals.  

We had a message on our voicemail today stating that we were defaulted on a lease that we have for over 6 months.  We don't have a lease on anything and never have.  The phone number left for me to call is 888-271-4480.  However, when I tried to call back (3 different times) it stated that the recipient's mailbox is full.  I will not be calling them back nor will I be answering any calls from them.

I have received calls on my cell phone over the past few days from 888-733-9184 for an "unpaid lease and turning me over to collections" saying to call 888-271-4480 immediately.  When I called the number, I was on hold with a recording for a while and then dropped. I'm sure this is some sort of scam or someone has been using my cell number for leased stuff. I am going to contact Verizon and my friend (lawyer) to see what I should do next. The calls better stop.

I have received a letter from Pushpin Holdings saying I owe a debt that was paid off 4 years ago. I have been looking online and see this company is a scam.

They have also called me and I do not have any "equipment" leased. I called back and it put me on hold forever then transfered me to a full voicemail.

Good afternoon I continuously to date been receiving harassing unauthorized calls from this scam artist Push Pin Legal Departent stating that I owe money on a lease?! I NEVER ever had with them. I have asked them to stop calling me, and they persist and also stated that the calls will continue, and I told them that I am not afraid of them and that I am not the one to F---k with and that I would F--k them up!!!!!!!!by reporting them to the appropriate legal authorities and have their scam and scandulous a***s investigated, and prosecuted to the full extent of the Law! I sure do  hope that  the attorney General is reading this comment, please assist in this matter

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:

?is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
?refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
?asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
?exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.

If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

?Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.?Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
?Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft ? charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or taking out loans in your name.
?Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate ? but you think the collector may not be ? contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.
?Report the call. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.

Just got a message from same company stating that owe money on a machine that I never got or did any busniness with.  the message was that I was going to have a civil ciut filed agaist me? They better not do this....they can go to hell for all I know....tired of 3rd party collectors......
.

Yes, I got a call yesterday and they left a message that I was 6 months past due on a lease.and that a civil suit may be filed against me....the only lease I ever had was about 13 years ago for a visa machine and I still have the canceled contract, which was only a month or two after I signed for it. REAL TIRED OF THESE THIRD PARTY COLLECTORS TRYING TO FIND OLD ACCOUNTS..WHY DON"T THEY EARN THEIR WAY INSTEAD OF TRYING TO COLLECT ON CIVIL CASES HOPING TO GET A DEFAULT..THE STATUE OF LIMITATIONS WAS UP 7 YEARS AGO>>>> GAGS!  SHOULD BE A LAW FOR THIS!

I received a call today, 7/1/13 from this number in regards to a lease which they said I owed money on. I have never heard or done business from these idiots and if they call again and I get a live person, watch out. You do not want to f*** with me 888-271-4480, I guarantee it!

yep...got a call have had the same number for 16 years...NEVER did business with this company. Left a message, which btw is illegal, telling me I had not paid in over 6 months on a lease of equipment. I was facing court and charges.I have never leased any equipment period. I am reporting them to the Attorney General of MN on Monday.

I got a call 5-30-2013 from 888-271-4480 saying I am facing a court case and charges for a lease that is more than 6 months overdue.  I have no leases, period.
They identified themselves as Bush and Holding, LLC.

The number is from PushPin Holdings ltd out of New York City. They are a group of bottom feeders in a collection agency mainly trying to collect on leased credit card machines. the BBB gives them a rating of F... They just sent me a letter trying to collect from 11 years ago.

I did not answer it.
