Well, I just had the exact same experience as the others listed here. Received a phone call from a Montana phone number tell me to call a different number about a judgment against me. They couldn't give me any other info. So, I called the number to find out what this could have been about.
I spoke with a Melissa Sanders. She began by telling me this was regarding USBank from 2009. I initially told her I had NO idea what she was talking about. She proceeded to tell me that the judgement was for $1300. She was unable to tell me anything else. She said that if I didn't take care of it they could attach my income, bank account, home or car. Something about an "asset & liability". I explained to her that I am on disability and can barely even eat at the end of the month. Oh she says, I qualify for a hardship. Then she tells me she can lower the charge to $743.69 and I could make monthly payments of $212. I continue to tell her that I'm on disability and absolutely don't have that amount of extra money every month. So then she lowers it to $424.96 and tells me I can make payments of $123.95 for 6 months. She continues to tell me that I'll be perused if I do not take care of this.
So, I'm remembering a bank account that I opened a LONG time ago. While I had this account I was given a money order for... I'm thinking it was $200 or $300 and it turned out to be fraudulent. About 10 days or so the bank notified me that it was fraudulent. It was so long ago that they notified me by mail! However, fortunately I had not spent any of that money and my account was never negative. I don't remember what happened after that. They may have charged me a fee.
Fast forward to today, that event was what ran thru my head as Ms Melissa is telling me all of this. I can't fathom that this could be the same event she's talking about. She tells me several times that there are additional fees and intrest charges added to the original amount. But again I tell her that I don't have that kind of money available. Finally she lowers it to $212.48 and I tell her I don't have an extra $212.48. Then she tells me that I can split that up into 2 payments of $106.24 and that some of her clients opt to put it on a charge card. Well, I bit and agreed to do that. I gave her my card # and everything. ? She had me sign something thru an email she sent me. She said that when both payments are made I'll receive a "release of liability".
AFTER I hung up I quickly googled the name Jack Edon Groups and found this site. I immediately called my credit card company to stop the payment and stop them from any future charges. Unfortunately, I was unable to put a stop on the payment as it's still pending and I'll have to call them back once it posts. But, I did put a stop to them being able to charge me anything in the future! Sure wish I would have found this page WHILE I was on the phone with her! I knew it seemed fishy and I should have went with my gut!
This company is a scam!

I got a call first, from a Billings Montana number and the woman said she was a "Regional Locating Service" and that a complaint had been filed against me. She gave me a number to call with a claim number. I called out of curiosity at the word "complaint."

I reached Jack's Edon Group and first spoke with Melissa Sanders who said I had been paying on a card regularly between 2001-2008 but owed $3000. She had my name, phone, social security number (ALARMING) and when I asked what card she said Capital One. I said, sorry but I have had my Capital One for 30 years and hung up. She called back (while I was at work and left a threatening message).

Game was on; I called back after work and spoke to Samantha Kline and Michelle Dunn, all fake names of course, and women dumb as a rock. I filed a police report and put a freeze on through all 3 credit bureaus.

They are hard core scammers. BEWARE.

Yup, they are slick. They approached me with a must call of a 866 toll free number with my given file number and a time limit to respond. Intrigued, I followed up and found out they called themselves Jack's Edon Group. They claimed to be collecting a debt I had from a credit card opened in 2004 and paid on until 2009, in the delinquent amount of mid $3k . They had my name, social security number, and address. It didn't smell right at first but I have to admit, they had me questioning my recollection of my events during that time. They were cordial and sympathetic and tried to make excuses for me for non payment. They used such scenarios as maybe someone I knew used my information to open the card, make payments for 5 years, then stopped. I knew there wasn't any such card or non payment on my behalf, and stated that fact to them to no avail. They offered to work out a settlement. The call was terminated by them after I agreed to be transferred to a settlement agent, I thought that was the end of it. Days later, I received another call with must call of a 866 toll free number with my given file number and a time limit to respond. Again intrigued, I called back knowing this was a scam situation. I played their game and pushed back against their close to identical claims from the previous call except for the time frame, another red flag. They were generously willing to accept a 20% payment of the unpaid amount and any and all penalties and interest accrued for over 10 years. I again disputed any such card existed. They again stated that someone may have used my name and information to open a credit card, make payments on it for 5 years, and now it it my responsibility. I was then transferred to a superior who continued the claim and demanded resolution before the call ended or the full amount would be settled with garnishments and levies. While on this phone conversation, I made an internet search of Jack's Oden Group and discovered that there wasn't anything but BBB complaints and scam alerts. I began to read them off over the phone and they hung up immediately. I am looking forward to tying up their resources on my next potential call so they cannot scam someone else that may fall for their fraudulent claims. BBB, please do something about this racket, thank you.

My mother got a phone call today from a "debt collector" for me, they told her I needed to call them back or they would issue a judgement against me. I had no idea what it could be for so I called the company. They told me I had an outstanding debt with a credit card company from 2008. That didn't make much sense to me because I hadn't had a credit card in 2008. So I asked her what address I supposedly had this card sent to, she gave me an address I lived at, but I didn't live there in 2008, I left that apartment in 2006.

(**** wasn't adding up)

So this lady is going on and on and on about how if I don't come up with 753.00 today they will issue a judgement against me and garnish my disability checks. I told her I have like 20 dollars to my name right now and couldn't give them anything. I also asked her how to fight this because clearly I never had a credit card back then, and I didn't live at the address they provided me with in 2008. She said I couldn't fight it, so I was like even if I prove I didn't live at that address at that time? Like what?

She said they sent me notices to this address, I never received one. So I asked her how do I know this isn't a scam? She said they wouldn't just be asking me for the 2000.00 or whatever asinine amount they said.

I told her I would call her back, and I did a quick internet search.

The businesses name is Jack's Edon.

Comes to find out, they are not ScamPulse.com accredited, and they get a grade of F from the BBB.

I started looking at the complaints against them. They are definitely running a scam,

I'm not the only one they have tried to do this to, some people actually gave them money, I feel bad for them. I can understand why they fell for it. These people have all your info, including your social security number, I almost gave in, but then I was like no, let me do some research first, I'm glad I did.

If you ever get a phone call from that company don't let them try to intimidate you, they demand money or a garnishment will be placed against you like right away.

I called the police and they said I was smart and did a good job by not giving into their threats, it's def a scam.

Now even though I know everything is fine, I'm still shaking and super sick to my stomach.

I hope this will raise some awareness about this company and the scam they are trying to pull.
