Type of a scam Debt Collections
Around August 2016 I was hired on by an Illegitimate collection agency, however did not sign any paperwork or go through an application process at the time of my hire. My first and last name was written a piece of paper and "your set". I first thought maybe because the company uses a TLO computer system in which you can access anyone’s personal information so didn’t need it. I over looked it and proceeded to work but later noticed several things that just didn’t make any sense. I was employed with this company for about 2 months and in that time the telephone number to the company has changed literally over five times, the number is always blocked when calling out, we recieved business checks from a personal account with very low issuing numbers, no payroll, do your own taxes at the end of year, the majority of victims are elderly with a bill from over 10 years ago, We were also advised to use acronyms for the companys name. For example we’d say W.M & Associates according to them "so no one can search the company an put bad reviews" ..but the company doesn’t show up on the Internet. (Besides what company tryung to expand doesn’t want reviews so they can see what needs improvment ?) Anywho, Unknowingly I’ve made serveral calls to people in attempt to locate them about an "outstanding bill" and a "business complaint being filed if they don’t contact the attorneys office." & unfortunately, was able to get the debtor to set up payment arrangements. At one point I spoke w. a "debtor" and gave him the information to call, and when I went in my computer to check for an update on his file, I seen the manager had listed in the notes "Paralegal keeps calling in requesting information" and that file hasn’t been touched since. When I quit after 2 days of not going, I went to clear my desk just to see that it was already cleared and all the paperwork I had in my folder pertaining to the job was mysteriously gone, yet the folder was there. I could go on and on but the bottom line is justice needs to be served. Not only are innocent "debtors" being victimized but ignorant employees as well. I’m not sure if they don’t care or really just oblivious but I’m 21 years old with a bright future so I will NOT allow or be apart of wrongful doing. So I ask if you could please put an end to this before more families are financially in debt because of a fraudulent "Business complaint being filed".
