they called an ex family member saying I had pending charges against me and need to confirm a place of employment and address on me but what they don't relize is giving out that information on a person can put a persons life in danager mainly if they have gotten out of an abusive situation and are in hiding from the ex family and here they are asking if you live at this address or work at this location. how can they legally give out that personal information? when call back they say they don't have any information under they claim number they left or the suposed last name they left. they need to get peoples legal last names correct first.

The locator called me from a spoofed number to make it look like she was calling me locally.  I could hear all the telemarketers in the background as she was talking to me.  So she was calling from a room full of other people making phone calls too. She said she needed to verify my address to serve me my claim or warrant, or some mess.  I gave her the address of our local police department as my address.  She asked me how long would I be there. I told her I would be here all day long. If she was really a locator in my local area, she would have immediately identified the address I gave her as the police department. Don't let these people bother you.  They are true scammers.

I am so sick of these people calling me! The locator calls me daily! If I try to call her back it just goes to a voicemail that has a male's voice which says, "This Department of Investigation Phone Does Not Accept Messages."   (By the way, the voicemail messages sounds ALOT like the so-called supervisor I spoke with last week when I called them back.) Then it says, this users mailbox can not accept messages. I'm sorry, but an error has occurred.  Then it hangs up on you.  What??

These people keep calling my work, numerous times a day every day, harassing everyone saying there's some charge against me. This person says her name is Samatha Green has the same voice as Lyne Obrien who claims to be a "locator" for the Firm & threatening to bring the papers right over to my home, but she is talking to me on my work phone, even tho I keep telling her that. I have told her bring over these papers so I can see what its all about, she says shes on her way but never gets here, she just keeps calling & screaming into the phone and harassing.  She tells me to call 888-397-4036 & the guy that answers tell me i can make a payment over the phone to clear this all up, he says he can't give out the Firms address nor can he mail or fax me any papers. I think this is all a scam !

These people keep calling my work, numerous times a day every day, harassing everyone saying there's some charge against me. It is a scam!!! This women says her name is Lyne Obrien who claims to be a "locator" & threatening to bring the papers right over to my home, but she is talking to me on my work phone. I keep telling her that. I have told her many times, ok if this is real go ahead and bring the papers, and she won't, she just keeps calling & screaming into the phone and harassing.  she tells me to call 877-783-2855 & the guy that answers tell me i can make a payment over the phone to clear this all up, he says he can't give out the address nor can he mail or fax me any papers. Still wont give me any info about what its about. I think this is all a scam but I need it to stop!

IS there any way to get them to stop?!?!  I DID return the call and wouldn't let the man talk.  I just said :  I am returning a call about Claim #xxxxxx.  I confirmed my address and asked for any info to be sent there.  I stated that I am ordering a cease and desist on all contact with me, employer, family and friends.  I hung up.  They have since called my father, my home, my cell and MY EMPLOYER!!!  This is after my demand.  
I am so sick.

these scamsters are at me again, Backed them down about two months ago, now the ghost phone caller, "The Locater" is again leaving the messages to call the pimp # 888-397-4036. LOL, why do they need a locater, I have owned the same house for 20 years and am listed in the phone book. Hey come on over and meet my two pits, the rottweiler, and my attack dog, a vicious chihuahua.

Obviously, a real process server is NOT going to call you up first and warn you, ROTFLOL.

Do not give into these thieves!!!! You cannot be arrested for owing a debt and they cannot trespass on your property, call the police if any jerk actually shows up. In many of these cases, the victim never even took out a loan, I did not and they insist they have proof that they will not mail to me, I will only get proof when they serve my papers. They will serve me my papers after the locater verifies my address, which is in the phone book already. What a barrel of laughs.

I received these same calls today by some A** Clown who goes by the name "Jason Moore" he is a locator. I told my address and come serve me "brother" and never showed but the calls continue. I called Verizon and had the numbered blocked and my cell will no longer receive calls from his phone. Also read the Fair Credit Act, one can not be arrested for bad debt even if the debt was owed. Secondly in most states the debt is dead in 4 years, companies can not place collections, garnishments, liens and or  judgements, against debtors. You are entitled to all information that "you" signed but Global will not send those, ask them. Hope this info helps. Basically tell them to go Kick Rocks!!!!

This number is from a scammer. They pretended to be Global Collections contacting me about a payday loan from over six years ago. They tried to scare me into giving them a credit card number to settle the debt today or else I would have a process server come to my job and serve me. I asked for their address and they said they don't give it out for the security of their employees. I'm not paying one dime! I don't owe these people a cent and they are trying to use harassment to scare people into paying. Then they use a phony phone spoofing system to make it appear that the processor is calling you from a local number. You can never call the processor back because the number doesn't work. It conveniently goes to a mailbox that is full or doesn?t accept messages.

Please don't let these people scare you. I made an awful mistake last year.  One of these same companies (I think it's the same one) called me at work.  I didn't return their call so they called my BOSS.  Told my boss they needed to speak with me about some illegal activity that involved their company.  My boss panicked and called into her office to discuss this "problem".  It ended up being one of these debt collectors calling me about a payday loan I supposedly took out about five years ago.  I recalled taking out the loan, but I can't remember if I paid it or not.  Dummy me went and paid these scammers not realizing it was  a scam.  They fooled me and my boss too! She's an executive and they got her. They use embarrassment to get you to pay.  Now recently the phone number of 888-397-4036 has popped into my life saying I owe another payday loan from years back. I am NOT being fooled twice!!  Please don't let them scare you, and please keep your money.  The real company would send you something in writing.  These people refuse to send anything in writing, and that's the first sign of a fraud.  They are also very abusive verbally, not a real company.  They also refuse to give you an address, not a real company.  I talked to supervisor after supervisor, which was all ruder than the previous.  Don't let them scare you and don't pay them.  If anyone comes to your job, they are an imposter.  Take their papers so that you can have their finger prints and some proof to sue them with later!

I had someone call me from a local number and tell me this is my last chance to settle a claim.  She said she was a locator and was coming out to my job and home to serve me a claim (??).  She told me to call Global Collections.  They were soooooo vague!  It was about a payday loan taken out in 2007 (It is now 2013) and they want to me settle it today.  I insisted that they send me some type of proof that I owe this, and they said they can send no proof, they can only send a "Paid in Full" letter "After" I pay (??).  They were very rude and very obnoxious.  Sounded nothing like a real agency.  They said the only proof I could get was the information the locator gave me when they came to my job. Is this place for real??  Then the next day, I had the same locator call from a local number of 916-993-1014.  She called me at 7:30 am, and I didn't make it to the phone. She left a message saying I had until she served me with a claim to contact Global to settle my debt.  I tried to call her number back and it doesn't pick up and doesn't accept messages. I sent a text stating the following: "This Canadian firm has been contacted by us and confirmed as a fraud allegating a fraudulent debt. We are beginning a lawsuit and charges of harassment and fraud against Global, as well as any other entities continuing to contact us based on the FDCPA and FCRA Laws...."

I sent an email to the so-called Global Collections at the following email address: ombudsman@globalcollection.net.  After my last email to them, I heard nothing back from Global Collections, and nothing back from the so-called Locator.  This is the email thread:

These people have been harrassing me about a payday loan from six years ago.  Their so called "Locator" has been calling my phone non-stop! Even at 7:30 am in the morning making threats to come to my job to serve me.  So I did some homework and found out:

THIS PLACE IS A FRAUD!  This is what I found on the FBI's website under the section of scams/safety atwww.FBI.gov

New Variation on Telephone Collection Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

02/21/12?The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) continues to receive complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. As previously reported in December 2010, the typical payday loan scam involves a caller who claims the victim is delinquent on a payday loan and must make payment to avoid legal consequences.

Callers pose as representatives of the FBI, ?Federal Legislative Department,? various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies and claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, or other Internet check-cashing services. The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim?s home, cell phone, and place of employment in attempts to obtain payment. The callers refuse to provide information regarding the alleged payday loan or any documentation and become verbally abusive when questioned.

The IC3 has observed variations of this scam in which the caller tells the victim that there are outstanding warrants for the victim?s arrest. The caller claims that the basis of the warrants is non-payment of the underlying loan and/or hacking. If it?s the latter, the caller tells the victim that he or she is wanted for hacking into a business? computer system to steal customer information. The caller will then demand payment via debit/credit card; in other cases, the caller further instructs victims to obtain a prepaid card to cover the payment.

The high-pressure collection tactics used by the fraudsters have also evolved. In one recent complaint, a person posed as a process server and appeared at the victim?s job. In another instance, a phony process server came to a victim?s home. In both cases, after claiming to be serving a court summons, the alleged process server said the victim could avoid going to court if he or she provided a debit card number for repayment of the loan.

If you are contacted by someone who is trying to collect a debt that you do not owe, you should:

Contact your local law enforcement agencies if you feel you are in immediate danger;
Contact your bank(s) and credit card companies;
Contact the three major credit bureaus and request an alert be put on your file;
If you have received a legitimate loan and want to verify that you do not have any outstanding obligation, contact the loan company directly;
File a complaint at www.IC3.gov.

?    I found this online as well at the FBI's website.  This sounds ALOT like the tactics that are being described in the thread of posts.  If you are being harassed by Global Collections, DO NOT PAY!

Telephone Collection Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

12/01/2010?The IC3 receives a high volume of complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. In these scams, a caller claims that the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check cashing services.

One of the most insidious aspects of this scam is that the callers have accurate information about the victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. The method by which the fraudsters obtained the personal information is unclear, but victims often relay that they had completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls began.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim?s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide to the victims any details of the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers threaten victims with legal actions, arrests, and in some cases physical violence if they refuse to pay. In many cases, the callers even resort to harassment of the victim?s relatives, friends, and employers.

Some fraudsters instruct victims to fax a statement agreeing to pay a certain dollar amount, on a specific date, via prepaid visa card. The statement further declares that the victim would never dispute the debt.

These telephone calls are an attempt to obtain payment by instilling fear in the victims. Do not follow the instructions of the caller.

If you receive telephone calls such as these, you should:

Contact your banking institutions;
Contact the three major credit bureaus and request an alert be put on your file;
Contact your local law enforcement agencies if you feel you are in immediate danger;
File a complaint at www.IC3.gov.

A guy by the name of Jackson called me, stating he works for Global and I have charges against me concerning payday loans. The debit is $500 plus dollars and supposed to have taken place in '07. Also, he have Locators calling different people in the area, frighten then by saying I have a warrant for my arrest and charges against me. I don't owe them anything. Jackson/Locators also, addresses me by my ex-husband's name. How do I make these people leave me alone.

I got four calls in a row, from a 'spoofed' local number on my cell before they left a message. The claimed I have charges against me and they needed my residential address and work address so I could be "served:. The closed out the message saying that I'd "officially been notified". They never identified themselves as a debt collector.

I filed a complaint with the FTC and with my state's attorney general.

I found a Brenda Daniels in Porterville on Jennifer Way.  It lists 2 phone #'s for her. The other # they are calling from is originating from Huron, so I'm guessing it is.

Good luck Lynn. NObody has been able to get them to give an address. Which is further proof that they are thieves.

I have noticed that their magic number is 465.  On many of the posts on this board they claim people owe them that amount.  Anyway, Global is a nobody scammer.

Does anyone have an address for this scammer?  I am filing formal charges and need to send certified mail.

These people are ridiculous!! First this silly b*tch by the name of Brenda Daniels called my mother, and then she called my brother telling them that she is a "detective" no less and that I have charges against me and that she needs to serve me papers so that I can take care of this matter because I only have one day to do so. Apparently this clever "detective" is too stupid to google my name, I have a facebook open to the public because I OWN A STORE. She could call that #, or even stop by.  She then proceeded to call me 3 times on a different # in the period of one hour and kept hanging up when I answered the phone.  When she called the 4th time, I asked her what in the hell she wants, and why does she keep hanging up. I told her that I had already done my own investigating and that I know this is all b***s***. She is calling me by the name of my ex-husband, and I have been divorced for 10 years!!! Then the brilliant "detective" said I had charges against me and that she was going to serve me papers and I said BRING THEM!
She wanted to know where I was and I said "I thought you were a detective?" but I'll meet you anywhere!!! She rattled off an old address and I said ya, we can meet there. She said "we'll see how tough you are in person"
I told her "show up b*tch and you'll find out!" Then she called me 18 times in a row and kept hanging up when I answered. I am not making this up...18 TIMES!!!!!!!!!! I have the phone records to prove it. I kept saying we can do this all day, I own my own business, and she's talking to the boss. Her "scare" tactics are laughable. I said " I thought you were coming with papers, I'm ready", and she finally said " I want to make sure you're there." I said, " I'm here stupid BRING IT!!!!!!!!!" That's the last I heard so far, but I'll keep you posted.

SCOTT MILLER, called to serve legal papers... BS.. ALL the way BIG SCAM!!!!! Defenetely report to ftc.gov

Just got a call on my cell phone from a local number-I am at work so it went into VM.  They left a VM for my mom.  Saying they needed to verify her home address or place of employment to serve her papers.  And that she only had 1 chance to call them back-

I have received 11 calls just in the past two hours from Global so has my grandmother, mother, aunts and husband with some crazy lady screaming on our voice mails saying that I have until the end of the day to pay my debt or I'll be arrested!! I have to admit that I was freaking out at first thinking what have I not taking care of that would result me being served or arrested? They even told my grandmother that I was in a whole lot of trouble and that I better contact them. WTF but then I found this sight since i wanted to google this company to see what exactly it was and what did I find NOTHING except this sight. I am now in a much better state of mind and I am really hoping that they will call me back cause I am ready to play games now and see just how far they will go!!LOL so stay tuned cause I may have an update!!

These people keep calling my family, numerous times a day every day, harassing us saying there's some charge against my sister. It is a scam!!! This women who goes by the name Patricia White who claims to be a "locator" keeps threatening that shes going to bring us papers to our home, I have told her many times, ok if this is real go ahead and bring the papers, and she won't, she just keeps calling and harassing. They are just trying to scare us into paying them or something. Still wont give us any info about what its about. I am going to sue these people if they don't stop harassing my family!!!!!! Also, any time we call the 888 number, you can tell most the time its the same women disguising her voice! they won't give us an address or any info. Real debt collectors do not act this way!!!!

you did good......Global is as sleezy as they come.
