I received a call from this number. When I called it back I got in touch with a very rude ***resentative who demanded my full name, DOB, address, and last 4 of my SSN before even telling me what this company was and what the purpose of the call was for. I eventually kept calling until I spoke with a *** who stated this was in regard to a balance I owed on a ****** account. I have never had a ****** account and last I knew ****** was free to have anyway. This company seems like an entire scam and should be investigated for falsifying information and trying to coerce confidential information from the people that they are trying to scam.Business Response

While I do have an outstanding balance due this company is calling my mobile phone 4+ times a day with no message. Yesterday, January 30, 2024 I received three separate phone calls from FMA Alliance, Ltd in less than two hours. The behavior is borderline harassment. I am making payments on my account and do not understand the excessive phone calls and attempts to speak with me regarding an account I am already paying on.Business Response

This company keeps calling me from random numbers and when I answer the phone goes silent. I call back and they demand I give them my full name, address, birth date and SSN. They refuse to tell me what they want or why they keep calling. Why would I provide PII data to people who could be scammers? Either stop calling and harassing me or tell me what you want. You can mail me a letter but I am not giving you my personal information. I googled the phone number and got this company but I have no way of knowing if the number is legitimate and I am not going to tolerate the poor treatment I have received from the representatives I spoke to who claimed to be from your company.Business Response

I was contacted about an alleged debt from a company that I’ve never heard of so I’m asking if we need to validate the debt.
I’m not certain who would dell this debt to you since there is a federal lien of nearly $700, 000 against me and my only income is permanent SSD.
After the debt is validated then cease and desist all communications with me.
Thank youBusiness Response
