Phishing - Unknown

We got a text message from 616-229-8479 stating "We're contacting you about your health policy with an outstanding balance. Call your agent at 218-607-1649 to review your details. Reply STOP to end". When we called, they asked us to verify the policy owner, name and date of birth, and the insured individual, name and date of birth. They then attempted to get the business debit card number so they could "research" the transaction. I declined and they hung up. I called back and asked what the company name was, and they hung up.

Debt Collections - URS

Husband received a voicemail that I had not fulfilled a payment arrangement. Called the number and spoke to Mrs. Waller although the message stated to reach out to Jason Mitchell. She stated that I owed the hospital money and they were collecting. If I did not resolve the issue with a payment arrangement, I would be served with a garnishment for theft of services. I asked for a date of service and she said due to HIPPA she could not give me that. I setup payment arrangements to avoid being garnished and they took $400 from my account in July. I did some research and spoke to the hospital. The hospital said they do not use URS as a debt collector and that the collection agency should be able to provide a date of service. After doing some additional research, it appears that this company paid fines for violating the Fair Debt Collection laws and have obviously scammed many others. I called them back and requested a refund of the $400 and to stop any further deductions from my bank. The money was refunded and no questions asked. That was a huge red flag. If it was legit, I feel like they would not have refunded so quickly. My husband and co-worker continue to get calls from the same number and person to this day. I do not understand how they are still in business.

I have been recieving several times about a job posting that I never applied for. I asked the last several agents that attempted to contact me by phone to not contact me agan but I am recieving emails daily as well as phone calls several time throughout the day. I asked the caller whom had a very heavy accent how did he recieve my information and he stated he recived it from Monster, I told him that he is violating my privacy because I never applied or agreed to be contacted by anyone so he provided me with the company name. I advised him to place me on the DNC list and he told me to go to Monster and delete my resume and that would stop the calls. This is concerning because I shouldn't have to delete my profile from a proven site in order to eliminate calls from coming especially if I never approved to be contacted to begin with. I am also registered on the national DNC registry which they have also seem to violate.

Sign daughter up for cheer. Cheer coach asked parents to pay hundreds of dollars for fundraisers she planned that failed to raise money , on top of mandatory payments of $260 per month to help buy a new building(stated out of coach’s mouth directly to me). For example , she has a chicken dinner fundraiser and I was told to “sell 10 tickets for $30 each and whatever tickets that were not sold then I have to pay the difference totaling $300 because the firework fundraiser made no money and the team ended up owing the booth money instead.” I was told by the fundraiser manager that the same rule would apply in December where tickets would be sold for pancakes with Santa. Also,held kids almost to 9pm when class was scheduled on tue & thur from 6p- 8pm meanwhile if we are late or miss practice we are charged a fine. If parents do not request time off from practice by Aug 1st and we miss practice anywhere between aug-March, a fine is also applied( no room for emergencies). She also made a requirement to enrollment in tumbling on Wed on 7:15p- 8:30p at the parents expense. Also, purchases of practice gear was required every 2 weeks even after having purchases the first set of 3 practice gear for $60. Lastly, when the coach went over time for let out, as I approached the door, I was told by another coach I would be “cursed out” if I touched the door to the practice room. Now that we have withdrawn after being threatened, she has sent me an invoice for $650 for a withdrawal fee. She is taking advantage of good parents who want to see their children succeed in extra curricular activities.

I bought a piece of property paid the down payment with a chime credit builder card with no problem. 1st payment came due they said they couldn't get it off the card. They wanted us to use the debit card. They ask for the routing and account number, I sent it. 2nd payment due, they say there's a problem with the numbers and the account is overdue. The account is good, we use that card all the time and the money for both payments is on the card.
