I also get their messages something like everything. And I have no unpaid loans. Whenever I answer their call, all I get is a automated message. My name is a computerized name and isn't even "spelled" right.

Got a call from these folks. They claim to be with CCR & Associates. When I called them back you get a menue that comes off like they're a Law Firm. I pressed "1" and some lady answered with "hello" instead of a company name or such. She says something about a case number, which I have no knowledge of. She says it's from a pay day loan from 2005! The original loan was for $500 and now it's $700, and that I need to pay it or they will file charges or something. When I checked, I found there was no missed call log of the number, but they had left a voice mail message.

keeps calling but leaves no name or compny or why they are calling

How are they a scam if you never called them back> you said your self the name is common...I kno a wrg number is so far fetched

I received a message today 888-872-7992 ext.1. A guy answered said CCR.  I told him I received a message to call this number, he placed me on hold and came back said he needed to make sure I was the correct person with social security number last 4 digits 3648.  I said no, he asked what number was I called on so he could make sure I wasn't bothered again, but we will see.  There are several people in this City with the same name as mine so I always use my middle initial.

Like the others, I have received the same message for the last two days in a row saying to call this 888 number (once from 623-321-2852 and today from 623-505-4129). The recording does say my name, which is a common one, but I refuse to call them back. I have never even been late on a payment, let alone defaulting on anything, so it is obviously a scam. I will be reporting them to the police for harassment.

And just to be safe, I filed a fraud alert on my credit report....

Fed up with these scammers!

i received a call today from 321-283-0906 mentioning that i was named as a person of interest and to call a specific number listed above. this is the same message i am seeing across the board for these people. i have never obtained a payday loan or anything of the such. wow, desperate times call for desperate measures i guess! what low lifes

I just received a call, so I called them back and she said she had 2 of "my name" in the system and could I verify my SS#..I said absolutely not. She got nasty and told me to have a good day. These people don't scare me and I am not giving anyone my SS. I have a very uncommon name, so they can take their threats to someone else. Also, I have no payday loans as some of you have mentioned.

Recd messages 2 days in row and they gave the same line and the call was for a personl I've never heard of & they gave the 888 #.  Never had a payday loan so don't know what the deal is.  Creepy tho.

I just got a call on my work phone that i have never gave out, they asked for " kevin holt" or something like that again saying the same thing about a decision will be made and gave the same 888 number. they called from 405-301-8342

Diane it was prob. a wrong number if you do not have any outstanding loan because Ive delt with them and its so far legit they have sent me all the info I requested VIA a fax took care of the situation pretty reasonably.

Daniel I did the same thing pretty much but the address I think u have wrong because Ive revived mail from then its 2265* George urban blvd. Was a validation letter....for a similar thing they took care of it for me.

I received a message "This call is for Jennifer L****. You have been named as a person of interest.  You need to call this office at 888-872-7992, EXT 1, immediately, or decisions will be made without your knowledge." I don't know who she is and the # on caller ID is 213-261-0227.

I just got a call w/ caller id (702) 666-9921 but the voice mail msg is identical to all yours. when i've tried to call back both #'s I get "voice mailbox is full". but my mystery's been solved by other postings because I do have an unpaid payday loan balance from a very long time ago.

She just call me too.  She leaves a voice message "This call is for Myra. You have been named as a person of interest.  You need to call this office at 888-872-7992, EXT 1, immediately, or decisions will be made without your knowledge." I don't know who she is and the caller ID shows telephone number 615-622-2305.

they just called me as well, the name they mentioned seemed to be deliberately mumbled so as to get me to call back. I immediately erased the message. I know I have no outstanding debts or loans so it must be a scam.

CCR Associates did not contact me, but contacted two references that I used when getting the payday loan they were collecting.

In one instance, they disclosed information they shouldn't, and in both they gave a veiled threat of lawsuit.

I contacted the number and talked with Alex Villafranca.  I told him I wanted my account information, and I wanted his address to send a cease a desist letter.  the address he gave me was: 2256 George Urban Blvd, Depew, NY 14043 .  I looked up this address in the phone book, and it seemed to be a home address.  The name of the owner of the home I will not give, incase he was not connected to this company, but it was different than the guy I talked to.

I will research to find out more.

Keep calling and leaving a message for someone who does not live here.  They leave a voice message "This call is for Chris Jerman.  You have been named as a person of interest.  You need to call this office at 888-872-7992, EXT 1, immediately, or decisions will be made without your knowledge." I don't know who they are.  The number on the Caller ID is 303-353-1720

This call is for Maria Channels you were chosen as a person of interest, please call this office at 1-888-872-7992ext.1, if you do not call a decision will be made without my knowledge.

Diane it was prob. a wroung number if you do not have any outstanding loan because Ive delt with them and its so far legit they have sent me all the info I requested VIA a fax took care of the situation pretty reasonably.

just cause your a b*tch and dont pay your debts haha whos the real scumbags them or yous

I have been getting phone messages from CAMBRIDGE HUXLEY & ASSOCIATES, LLC (Cheektowaga/Buffalo) or another name used CCR & Associates and a rep of theirs named Brian, Tim West  and Anthony Stone (phone number 888-872-1615 & 888-872-7985) at different times of morning and night. They accused me of fraud and recently manipulated my 11 year old daughter out of my government job cell phone number stating that they were a job seeking to schedule a job interview. I have been reprimanded by my supervisor for having 800 numbers call my cell phone, in which I am currently on one year probation.

I contacted my state Attorney General and they stated they are a fraud and have many many complaints nationwide against them. I also have several recorded phone conversation between us including when I discussed with them that they are not to call my job cell phone. I have retained a lawyer to peel their butts.

My husband called me at work today and told me I needed to call 866-845-1523 regarding some type of fraud with my social security number.

I was concerned, so I called the number and left a vm with the Case# they had provided.  I got tired of waiting and called back a few hours later.  This time, instead of entering the ext they gave me (644) I just hit 1 for anyone available.

I gave the woman on the phone the case number and she asked for the last 4 of my ssn.  I asked 'for what purposes'.  She said to prove I was Christine Rutgers (or something - wasn't my name).  I said that I was NOT that person and she asked what number had been called - I gave her the home number and she said she'd remove it from their database.

A few hours later I got a call from the company, returning the message I left.  I told the guy I talked to someone in his office and there was apparently some mistake because the person I spoke with gave me the name of someone who wasn't me.  "Mr. Hall" said that the office person didn't know what they were talking about.  He asked me if the last 4 of my ssn was **** and I said no it's not.  Then he asked if my birthday was **/**/**** and I said he wasn't even close.  I said he had a hard time believing that and that he was turning the case over to the county.  Whatever that freakin' means.

For the record - I have no outstanding unpaid debts.  Nothing in the past.  Nothing in the present.  I'm hoping this was a case of mis understanding - someone gave out a false number which turned out to be mine.  They better not call again! I'm not playing with these people.

Where can I find out about the statuate of limitations on vehicle repossesions. They may be doing the same thing to me for a debt that is over ten years old.

Exact same message as from a 602.914.7485 number - "?I was a person of interest in an important matter and to stay on the line or an important judgment may be made against me."  Apparently it's this lovely zombie collection agency, CCR.  I never answer, they've called several times in the past, left messages.

Funny thing is we're debt free - just ran our credit report right before we bought a house and there were no problems or outstanding debt.

I keep getting a call from that number asking for somone not living in my home.  I have returned the call many times and I get disconnected or the voice mail is full or the person is not available

I have no idea but do not want to get mystery calls

I received a call on my home phone answering machine which the number is private and is in my husbands name...they also called my in-laws.I have no clue who they are and they called me by my maiden name as well. I tried to call back to see what it was about and the guy was jerk at extention 250. He hung up on me and I called back only to get an voice recording and no answer. It sounds like a scam to me and from what I have been reading from researching these guys, this is not legit. I threatened to file a complaint with the Department of Justice and the Department of Insurance and the Attorney General's office for the State of NY if they didnt leave me and my family alone and he was a total jerk..."well pay your bills and we wouldnt have to call you"! What an a**....first of all I do...and I have no clue how they got these numbers. Crazy! They should not be posing as Attorneys when in fact they are not!! Should be put out of business!!!! ASAP!!! Like yesterday!!!!

This company called my number 8 times in one day leaving an automated  voice mail with the same verbage "asking for someone regarding an important matter and that  decisions will be made without you if you don't return the call".  I do not have any outstanding debt, and do not recognize the person on the automated voice.  I will however file a complaint with the FTC and DOJ immediately.

You need to "read up" as to what constitutes an illegal message is. Any calls, made for collection purposes, must include the companies name, purpose of the call, and a way of contacting them. But, I guess you already know that, being an employee of the CCR. I have contacted your company regarding the numerous calls made to me, and to the alleged debt. You could not verify the information, amount, or the correct "person of interest". "Anthony", who claimed to be one of your lawyers, threatened jail, and/or, the taking of my personal property to be sold at auction, to settle this. Or, I needed to give you my credit card number right now. Gee...that's illegal too...but, you knew that too, didn't you. Your comments prove your intelligence and sophistication. Paying a legitimate debt I have no problem with. Scams, threats, and illegal collection practices, are beneath any legitimate company. Anyone who blindly pays you a dime, deserves what they get. Others that know the truth, have nothing to fear from your threats. If you have a "true" case, take it to court, or start other legal procedings...if not...shut the f*ck up....
