Description
I received a voicemail from someone name "Sarah" at the SC State Processing Unit. This sounded different from other calls like this that I had received, as she had a U.S. American Accent. Said that an attorney's office had faxed them information and were going to serve me papers and wage garnishments. Stupid me called the number for Connors & Moore attorneys, at 888-460-3020 and spoke to a Josh Turner. Said that I had a loan that I never paid from ********** and I could either pay in full or make payments. Told him that I would call him back. I called ********** and they said that I never had a loan out with them; all applications had been denied! I spoke to their Customer Service as well as Collections Called the "processor" number back and, the voice sounded just like Mr. Turner's on the answering machine! Did look up State Processor and for SC, it seems that agency is only for child support and DSS, not collections. Also, the message had name the company, Connors and Moore as well as another "law office". Seemed very odd to me. Did more investigating: Connors and Moore website is new: 2026! I called the property manager where they are supposed to be located and they never heard of them. Mr. Turner called me back and I presented what I found in a calm manner and he started to get highly offended. Said that I admitted to having the loan and that since I found all this information, I could just dispute it. I asked him to send me information, which he refused. I also asked him to verify his address, which he refused. Got more adjugated as the conversation went on and hung up on me.
