A recording states "This is Ridgegate Financial. Our phone number is 934-947-9605. This message is from the loan department. We have a new office of $55,000 in the form of the installment loan. Your monthly payment is estimated to be $400. To talk to a funding advisor please choose option two. If you wish not to be contacted again, please press nine." I did not press 2, so I don't know if that routes to a person. I have pressed 9, but continue to be called multiple times every day from different numbers for the past 2 weeks. Numbers include: 844-507-5375, 855-317-6998, 86-524-5992, 866-523-4586, 888-912-9073, 888-448-7118, 844-901-8009, 866-529-1948, 877-354-5869, 866-815-3064, 844-671-7670, 877-843-9490, 844-914-6756, 844-979-4822. They give the same call back number. Within minutes another number calls claiming to be from the IRS tax resolution team: "This is the tax resolution team. You've been prequalified for hardship assistance. This may help you avoid garnishment or levy using the fresh start initiative. To speak with a case advisor, please press two. If you wish not to be contacted. Please press nine." The "IRS" give the number 833-510-1096 as a return number.
