Phishing - Debt Collections

This company called my family looking for me and told them i have a complaint against my social security number. I called them back and they said that they are collecting for Advanced America which was a pay day loan I took out over 10 years ago, and paid off!! I told them not to contact my family any longer since they have my information and i was told, 'you don't own their numbers, you can't tell us not to call them'. I asked for proof of the originial debt and she said that she didn't have to send me anything, or send me anything showing that i signed for it.

Phishing

I have received several of these letters over time. The author of these letters have my full contact information, the square footage of my house and perport to have insured my home in the past. Letters are of a threatening nature, including language such as "FINAL NOTICE", "...IMPORTANT YOU CONTACT OUR OFFICE", "...THIS IS WILL BE OUR FINAL ATTEMPT TO CONTACT YOU". "FAILURE TO CALL AND PREVENT A POTENTIAL LAPSE IN COVERAGE COULD RESULT IN YOU BEING LIABLE FOR ALL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ANY HOME REPAIRS." I even have a customer ID (HDU1ACAP8524) even though I have never been a customer...and yet I was told that my coverage was expiring or had expired (they said both). I am not fooled by them and have asked several times that they not contact me again. This time I very directly and loudly told them not to contact me again...I also said that this is a campaign to scare people into thinking they owe money or that they are losing their home insurance (which is a real threat to Florida home owners) and implies an urgency some people might think real. They have a Florida license, I don't know why...and people who believe their implied threats can be scammed into buying a home warranty thinking its home owner insurance. I asked how they had my information and the man I talked to said that my mortgage company has that information and records it (apparently for public use). The mortgage company mentioned in my letter ("Success Mortfage Partners, Inc.) is not my mortgageor and has not been so for a very long time. I refinanced my home years ago with Success who immediately sold the mortgage to another company. Please enter my complaint with all the others you must have about these scammers and remove any licensing if they do not stop these tactics. Jean H. Wall

Credit Cards - Baker cole and associates

I received a voicemail stating Niagara county court judicial services was trying to serve me with papers on Monday September 14 from 8-12 pm and said I needed two forms of valid id, and if I wasn't available at my residence, they would proceed to my place of work. They gave me a case number and said they would take pictures of the exterior of my house. They gave a number for me to call, 18665721648, I called it, the guy Jeff ext. 110 explained to me that I'm being sued and there is an executive court order, and he also gave info on a credit card that no longer exists, giving dates I supposedly opened and closed it. He then wanted money, and was willing to take half if I paid. He then got very defensive and upset when I stated this was a scam. A lot of things he said didn't add up. When I asked if he was a debt collector, he said he was a mediator and is trying to resolve the debt before it goes to the court. He claims that I owe him a certain amount of money and would be able to take less than half of the amount of debt.

Phishing - Home Warranty Scam

This organization is posing as a home warranty company. They referenced our bank on a letter to make them seem legitimate. We had not received our mailed contract with Choice Home Warranty yet, the home warranty company we signed with for our new home, and so I believed this was them reaching out. When calling them, the operator did not reveal a company name and asked to agree to a contract verbally. They explained a payment plan and asked for the first month's payment. The entire time I believed this was Choice Home Warranty. We have not received any further information from this organization and eventually received our physical contract with Choice that didn't match up with what the operator explained to us, which confirms it is a scam.

He claimed that I had an old Credit Card debt with Capital One oweing over $5990 and that they had been unable to serve me the court documents . He said if I didn’t pay a settlement amount of $3800 by that same day, that he would be filing paperwork in my county (knew the county by name) for a default judgment against my property.
