Description

The caller stated he was from Chase Bank and someone on the west coast was trying to get credit in my name. Since I lived on the east coast and the person did not know vital information, the bank stated it brought up a red flag. The caller had all my information, account number, social security number which I did not provide. Stated he would protect my account and report to the credit bureau agencies. He then asked me to hold on to talk to the security department with the complaint #EL2977838. When this person came on the line, he stated did I know about the federal law FCRA FDCTA. I did not have to pay back Chase or any of my credit card companies. I asked "why would the bank not want me to pay back their debt". I told Oliver I was going to call Chase Bank myself and hung up. When I called Chase, they had no record of calling me and my account was not hacked. She stated within the last few minutes they received information from Freedom Debt Relief to not collect any payments from me and had 4 other credit card companies listed. She called the phone number I had and was told it was not a good number. She gave me the number to the attorney for Freedom, David Parker, 215-610-5869 ext 21046. I called him and he apologized for what happened and wanted to find out the situation, I was the third complaint this week. I told him I did not want any of this and it was a scam. He said they were not, and I told him the person who called stated he was with Chase Bank, which was false. I told him I did not want any of my credit cards taken over by Freedom Debt Relief. He then went on about how I'm an elder person on social security, etc. and that I was being taken advantage of. I told him I will call all my creditors and let them know this was fraud and complain to BBB. If the government is letting these companies utilize telemarketers, I've listed my cellphone number with the do not call list however I still am getting spam calls. This company is using scare tactics, then unbeknown to the person, have them signed up with Freedom Debt Relief. Someone needs to stop them. I called the other creditors except one since they're paid off and put a notation not to accept anything from Freedom Debt Relief.
