I was scammed for $311 and called back because I was given a week long window to call them for the next payment, and noticed their line was disconnected.  Had this strange feeling that this was a scam, googled the number and sure enough, it was!  If I didn't pay the 2nd half on July 9, 2012 I would have owed $1,502.

This I think is the first time I've been quoted through my WCU profile, now eight months old. Anyway, I think it will be simpler for people to load the number thread directly.

It's not going to do any good to recite the law to them, they are criminals,not a collection agency  I wouldn't even give them the time of day   Just laugh at them when they call see how pissed you can get them

NO

Found this information posted by Resident47 on another website:

CHMA is said to be a DBA of Direct Resource Capital in Encinitas, CA. DRC is known for cruel illegal threats, and could possibly be in the infamous 'Corona Cabal' of lawbreaking collection agencies.

I got the same call total BS calling about an old debt from god I don't know how many years ago.  They can't do anything that they stay down here and you know what if you don't get served you don't get served that's no crime if they couldn't serve you if you were to get served.  They are just trying to scare you they can't do anything that they state for me they even called saying they were from my county court office.  Really people?!?  Don't pay the scammerss there's nothing anyone can do to you for old bad credit card debt!!! NOTHING!!!!! That's why it's called unsecured debt!!

Yep I got Nicole Charter as well. I asked her for HER personal information and told her that I was well aware of her scam and that she could kiss my behind. She called my work, my home and my cell phone. Now i have to get a new cell phone number....darn it all!

Same thing here, they called looking for my wife, same threatening bs as everyone else but the name they used for her was Nicole Carter

Called my cell phone for my husband with the same threatening phone call-from a restricted line @ that- when you call the number back and ask for an Ashley Wright who left the message no one by that name after I explained wht they were doing was fraud. And today they called my father in law and left same message. They can not disclose personal info to anyone other than you it is illegal the debt (if really exists) can be fought and thrown out. Reality is if it even is an old debt they have to supply it all in writing and show proof. Criminals are gettn smarter but the sad thing is how did they get this info and some of it is personal. Like how did they get my husband dads info when he uses none of that info since he was 19 and now he is 41??????

Yes, he calls my workplace and my home.  Steve Murray.  What a jerk.  He told the girl in my office that he was from a legal firm and needed to talk to me before they proceeded with litigation.  He should not be giving this information to just anyone and even though she told him her name when he asked, he still proceeded with explaining that he was from a legal firm and calling for me.

RE: 888-556-2319
Got my call from these folks at work & home today.  Will tell them not to call work.  I got the same "legal BS" as the folks above.  Scare tactics by real 'jerk-offs!!!'  Did anyone get the name Steve MURRAY?

called twice leaving msg with cast #, saying they want to send uniformed officcers, summons to appear in court.  they give no reason why i'm being summon.

This person is very insistent and calls back to back.  I have trouble with their tactics! I refuse to be bullied and lied to in an effort to collect a debt.  Get your facts straight.

They called my husband's cell phone to try to schedule a time to serve papers. I called the number back to see who it was and the person answered with "Corporate Office". I said, "Corporate Office for what company?" The response was, "We answer the phones for five companies and I can't tell you which one without your reference number." I asked for the names of the five companies and she again asked for my reference number. I told her it obviously was not important and hung up.

If this is the same company I dealt with once before, they called my place of employment and told them they were from the sheriff's office. I called the sheriff's office and they had no paperwork to serve me. I called the company back and they said again that they were from the sheriff's office. I asked them the name of the sheriff (they could not tell me). I offered to stop by the sheriff's office on my way home and they told me they had to serve me at home or at work. I spoke with the sheriff and we had a plan to set up a time for them to come and the sheriff was going to arrest them for impersonating an officer. We will try that same thing again this time.

If it is a credit card debt, the statute of limitations in this state is either 2 or 3 years.

They called my home phone looking for my daughter.Someone left a voice saying my daughter has some legal action goign on agaist her.

They called my mother's phone and did the same thing. How do you file a complaint?

They have called and left messages about legal action and that I have a two hour window to call back.

Threatening to send uniformed officer to my job..referring to an old debt that has been paid off.......trying to get me to send them $1600

She called me on my daughter's cell phone.  She left a voice mail for me, even though my daughter's voice mail clearly states that it is HER phone and not mine.  I filed a complaint with both my District Attorney's office and the Federal Trade Commission.  With enough complaints they will act, so please file.

Left a message with a case # and the phone # stated above.  Called them back and the message sounded very unofficial and suspicious.  Rang 12 times and said "Corporate Officers" is not available to answer your call.  Leave your msg.  Called asking for someone not at our number, and very intimidating.  Says will call 3 times and then legal action, about something vague.  Don't give them any info

Keep calling & leaving message with a case number & warning that the court will be notified that we were a failure to be served if don't call back.  Said they woudl call three times.  DId that but then kept caling - last time said they would give me 3 hours grace to call back.  I just ignore thier phone calls.  If they really know me, they should come to the door.

Got 3 so far. This is the first time they've left a voicemail. Female voice calling herself Sam Young. Something about scheduling a date to be served papers but she won't say what for...and I have no legal problems. And where I'm from you don't schedule dates to be served... EL SCAMO

threatening to be served. want card info on-line. will not mail anything in writting. anyone else know of this number?

Third call from them.

These people are calling people that don't even know me.  There is no validity to their claim.  Wanted to settle on something that is not real.  BEWARE!

These people are calling my 80 year old mother and threatening her.

Scam. They say there is legal action against you and they are giving you a chance to "settle" out of court. They want your credit card, personal info, etc.

Is it legal to keep calling my job threating me
