“I’m calling from ICC systems” is this Elizabeth Lombardo? Can you verify your address— it was my old one, 120 E Montgomery Ave unit 203A Ardmore PA

Wanted my birthday. I said I was ambivalent abt disclosing that bc I had recent theft. They said it was in reference to “ Banfield Pet Hospital”. I verified my DOB: 9/26/1968 and then they abruptly hung up saying — must be wrong person.

I called BACK 2 more times! First call back— they were like, yes that was unprofessional. Verified my DOB again! And made excuses and hung up AGAIN! 3rd call back I spoke to a man this time. Told him my outrage, that I think they are obtaining my personal info, & I was going to contact the BBB. He hung up!

I was told by my old landlord to contact that number.

To pay my bill that I owe. I then was redirected about four different times to a woman that called herself Ms. Howard. She then told me.I owed over seven thousand dollars and I can need it to pay it over the phone. I felt very uncomfortable doing trying to get a hold of Someone to help me find the correct company to pay my bill and get my credit score back up

Said I have pending litigation in Prince George’s County for a CashNet USA loan from 2023. I was living in Knoxville, TN at that time. They then proceeded to leave scare tactics on both of my parents answering machines but never called me directly.

They called from 3804443399 and said that my wifes debt was picked up by a dept collector and left the number 18552952590 to call and try to work something out. Upon calling the 855 number with the reference number they left in voicemail they asked her , her name and to confirm the last 4 of social and address. Well when she said she started a new job and wont get paid until june. They said unless she pays its going to court thursday so i asked them to said a valadation letter stating the debt and original claim then they said yep and hung up. So i called back to make sure they put me on hold 20mins then hung up on me saying court was in 2 days. I looked up numbers and the ScamPulse.com flagged one for spam and other one was marked as spam with multiple people having same issues. I just want to make sure others dont get used.

I have received multiple phone calls from Amber MItchell at Greenwood and Allen. She asked for my ex-husband by name and said that she is "calling from the Aribitration department this file was forwarded to [her] office for potential resolution." She said she wants to give him an opportunity to "settle out the account." I Google Greenwood and Allen and came across many reports of scams, so I wanted to share my experience as well. They did not get any money from me.

Goldstein Resolutions' representative (Kimberly) called from 888-362-5665, ext. 211, stating she was calling from Goldstein Resolutions, said they were attempting to collect a debt because of a Breach of Contract with US Bank from 2009. They said they have a judgement for the amount of $5,000. I explained to them I don't believe I had an account there, if I did my ex-husband would have been the one that had it. I had a business several years ago and he emptied my business account. I told them that I'm only on Social Security and couldn't pay that, they then said, well we can bring it down to $988.53, I again said I can't pay that, the representative said, hang on a second let me check something, I waited for about 15-20 minutes, she came back and said, can you pay $790.82? I then again said I couldn't pay that much, because I don't get much more than that on Social Security. She said that I should call her back tomorrow. It just sounds fishy to me. I just don't know what to do.
