While I was out this person left a message with the above phone number requesting that I call or they will start Legal action against me. I have never heard of this phone number. I am deaf and my wife is currently in a Nursing Home for Rehab. Would someone from the ScamPulse.com please email me at ************@aol.com or call me at *** *** **** and let me know what I should do. I believe this is a scam and refuse to call the number as it might lead me into a trap.

Susan Mullins has been leaving messages indicating that "legal action" requires my response and if I don’t call back and speak to a mitigator I forfeit my rights and will receive paperwork at my home or business. I took the call today and "Susan was busy" but someone else could talk to me and when I said "Go ahead, I know this is a scam" they hung up. They have tried to call back. No paperwork has ever been sent to our home. I know we don’t owe anyone money.

A old man, sounded Indian, called me without a missed call and went straight to voicemail. They said something about administration and to recall them before they take legal action against me. Last time I checked I didn’t do anything that requires legal action……

They continuously call to collect on a debt that is not real. They threaten arrest and lawsuits and demand payment immediately. They refuse to send proof of the valid debt and they call family members and employers. THE DEBT IS NOT REAL and they will not stop. They have been calling me for years under different names and it is ridiculous. I have added them to the do not call list and told them to stop calling but they don’t. It is frustrating and embarrassing. Someone has to stop these people from scamming others, who actually work, out of their money. I am contemplating changing my cell phone number to get it to stop but I don’t I should have to go through the inconvenience when I’ve had the same number for 20 years and I’m not in the wrong.

This is a voicemail message that was on my phone.

For working hours and once again expired after that you will be taken under custody by the local police as there are four serious allegations pressed against your name at this moment we would request you get back to us so that we can discuss about this case before taking legal action.

I received a voicemail today from a woman named *** ***  who said that she was calling with dispatch from the "county" and that they have sealed and certified documentation to deliver to my property address that they have on file. She said for me to get more info that I need to contact them immediately. She left a contact number and a case file number and told me that if I didn’t contact my case manager it would be looked on as noncompliance and that further action would be taken with or without my cooperation.

When I called back about an hour ago, a woman answered saying the business was called J.B. and Kramer Group. I asked to be connected to Sophia Garcia and she told me there was no one there by that name.

When I gave her my name she put me on hold and transferred me to the "litigations" department. I then spoke with a woman who told me I was being sued for a Wachovia account I had when I was 19 years old living in Philadelphia that was closed out in 2009. She said they had sent me a Demand letter on January 10. I asked her if it was sent certified and if someone had signed for it and she said no it was sent in the regular mail. I told her I never received such a letter. She told me that since I never received it she might be able to help me. She told me that at the time account closed I owed $761 but now with interest and court fees I was to pay $2800 dollars. She told me that I was to be served by a Marshall in 24 hours, but that she could help me avoid being served if I agreed to one of 3 payment options.

I asked her to resend the initial letter they supposedly sent once again and she told me that she can only send it if I agree to one of the payment options she mentioned. I told her that I had no recollection of the account (I had Wachovia when I was living in 2007, but haven’t had them since) and that I would like them to resend the letter she said they had mailed out, she told me there was no point being the police would be knocking on my door tomorrow.

I also told her that I don’t believe this account is mine since it hasn’t showed up on my credit reports and since I’m currently a Wells Fargo customer (they bought out Wachovia in 2008- if I owed this money to Wachovia which Wells Fargo purchased, why would Wells Fargo allow me to open an account? I’ve been with them for over six years).

I told her I don’t know why they’d be coming after me for an almost 10 year old debt. She proceeded to tell me that I’d be served and would have to go to court and that they would put a block on my bank account, garnish my wages et cetera. I then told her that the statute of limitation was sure to be up. She then continued to speak over me and yell, so I hung up. I checked the statute of limitation on being sued for bank account debt in Pennsylvania (where I had a Wachovia account 9 years ago), California (where this company is said to be based, and Georgia (where I currently live) and their way past the statute of limitation in each state.

I then proceeded to find their website and nothing comes up. I called back and was given the street address by their front desk and all that comes up is a UPS store. I’ve spent the last hour trying to research whether or not their legit and came across several message boards with people experiencing the same thing in regards to Wachovia and old bank debt.

A man by the name of Anthony Benson said he was a part of a law firm collecting a debt on behalf of a client. When leaving a message the voice was automated when saying my name. This person had old information on me and couldn’t give me updated information but the longer we were on the phone I felt like he was retrieving new things about me. The number that I was called from is 1-877-672-6923.

At this point I haven’t lost any money, and I pray to Jesus I won’t lose anything.

The scammer I believe is attempting to take personal information.

The same day she got a phone call from the same number and spoke to a guy named Anthony Benson wanted to get money from her. He stated if she didn’t pay that she would be taking to court by law enforcement.

There is a caller that uses the number 606-674-9033 who keeps calling my house (Same number every time). He states that I owe (Originally) $450 and will settle with me today. I continue to ask them to send me information through the mail (in which he replies that it is just a way for me to get more time, so he insist that he email me a receipt). He has a deep accent and you can barely understand him.

Friday of last week (June 9th, 2017) an unknown caller called my home. He said he was Detective Brad Marshall in Ashland (also has a deep accent and can barely understand him) and was going to serve me papers in the next hour….unless I call this number 844-413-7940 and he would be standing by waiting instructions. Of course, if you call this number you get an voice box and NO I DIDN’T TALK TO ANYONE. Well he called my house again yesterday from an unknown caller. It is starting to get a little aggravating because it is over the same amount and nothing at all can be done from my end.

On 20 May 2016, I received a computer generated call that stated I contact this number concerning a "returned check." Individual I spoke with said they had in their possession a returned check in the amount of $71.00 that was cashed in 1995. When I asked to receive copies to confirm the legitimacy of the account, they refused to send a copy by USPS or e-mail but said they only used a text to a smartphone. They further stated that restitution could only be made by credit card or debit card. I gave them no personal information and suspected this to be a scam and hung up the phone. The phone number listed on my call ID was 205.588.4005.
