Type of a scam Debt Collections
I received a letter yesterday, stating it was from a collection company (AMR) American Medical Response I had business with from 2017 til Dec 2018. Knowing I had finished by business with (AMR) American Medical Response located at 50 South Main St. Ste. 401 Akron OH 44308 in Dec 2018, with my obligations paid in full. I knew this had to be a scam trying to collect monies from me. I called American Medical Response from the number I had on file for them (800) 913-9106) to confirm my account #001947777-0000/ TRIP# 113-16516509-00 was paid in full. I also noted I had my confirmation numbers as well as all my statements in hand. They stated my account balance is $0 and they stated they would also send me a letter in the mail to confirm this as well, and told me to disregard the "fake" letter I received. I explained I was weary of any of my credentials being used unlawfully and I said I would also be calling Bay Area Credit Service (the original creditor) to be sure they have it recorded that my obligation has been paid in full. Bay Area Credit Service located at PO Box 467600 Atlanta GA 31146 (800) 697-1234). My BACS Acct# 98515899 was confirmed again thru them that my account was paid in full.
