I filed for bankruptcy in 2013. I began getting calls from company asking for me to call them back on a important business matter. I ended up picking up a call and was told by the representative, Rebecca Garcia that she was from Salzman Carlel Services and that I had to pay a debt on a Gap card from 2013. I told her I had filed for bankruptcy. She gave me an account number with the amount and it matched the one on the report I put for the Gap in bankruptcy court. I retrieved my old bankruptcy court paperwork from my lawyer and emailed her the reports with just the accounts on the bankruptcy proceedings. I got a call from another representative saying that was not the GAP account and it was another one that I supposed had. I found it fishy and asked them to stop calling me.

They had continued to hound me for over a year now calling me leaving me the same messages. Lately they have asked me to call them back on the number of my caller ID and still do not identify themselves or say this is an attempt to collect a debt. I have not received a single letter, court paperwork or bill from this company. I have received a scam post office email that verified my address which I also reported to the USPS. Now I am getting messages from these numbers that they are in the process of verifyingy home and work addresses to sent paperwork. Please help.

Voicemail opens with "This is Owen with CDL", and then goes on to say how I've ignored messages from the "client" and how they'll be forced to proceed unless I reach out. I got a one that was the same setup but with a female name instead. Both said to call 888-324-2185, regarding case number 3-93872.

Its been a week since SRS has called. The messagevon my vouce mail thus morning was from a woman calling with "a time sensitive and urgent matter" from ************. Once again I checked my credit bureau to see if anything has shown up from SRS. A second message on my voice mail five minutes ago said, "call the number listed on your caller id and you will immediately be connected to a sales representative." Not only is this a scam, but their technique is changing. I have not received any mail from any company named SRS. Under the fair debt collection law, until I recieve notification of a debt, Im not answering these calls.

My brother notified me of a text message he received from the number 940-579-7233 stating "We are attempting to locate ******* *****. If you can assist please call 877-755-9975. Refer to account # ******." I then reached out to that number and talked to Kristen and she stated I owed a settlement amount for $1950 for Purchasing Power. I was unaware that this was a scam so I agreed to the payment terms. $650 on 2/19/24 (payment confirmation # 028134). $550 on 3/15/24 (payment confirmation # ******). $750 on 4/15/24. I was unable to make the last payment so I tried calling to get an extension. I called the same number and it went straight to voicemail. I tried several times, every day, different times throughout the day, and was unable to reach anyone. That is when I realized I had been scammed. No contact from said business has been attempted. All payments had been made through Capital Processing Mgmt. (Joseph Ross- [email protected], 855-266-7603) I lost $1200. Total amount they were trying to collect was $1950. They also refused to give me any identifying information for their business, including mailing address and email.

They call my home line and my cell several time a day saying they are Ben Porter from Superior Mediation Group and if I don’t respond my case would be closed and forwarded to Fairfax County. I have never gotten anything in the mail about me owing them or who I am supposed to owe.

I received a telephone call the morning of 4/15/2024 from a female named "Brittany" that I had an outstanding bill from Alliance Diagnostics for bloodwork performed on 10/06/202 in the amount of $521.62 that had been turned over to her company, Financial Recovery and Collection Services. She mentioned that the bill had been sent repeatedly to my address. She confirmed my current address and said I must have thrown the notices away thinking they were junk mail. She gave me an invoice number but did not have a claim number. I asked her to send the invoice to me so I could investigate, and she said she was not allowed to do that. I contacted Medicare and reviewed all of my insurance statements and confirmed I had no outstanding bill for bloodwork. The closest insurance statement I had to the date of service she gave me was for a doctor's visit a week later. I contacted Brittany and told her the results of my investigation and she said I must have visited a hospital near that timeframe and they outsourced the blood work to Alliance. She said unless I paid then and there she was turning it over to legal and I would be notified of a court date. I told her I believed I was being scammed and hung up.

Individual stated in text message: This is a formal notice regarding your outstanding debt. Despite previous attempts to resolve this matter, it remains unsolved. Further action may be pursed if payment is not received promptly. Please contact us to discuss payment options at 943-293-6710.

I immediately called the number to inquire what this was regarding. The gentlemen said that it was regrading a personal loan in the amount of $800.00 from and Easy Corp/Easy Money provider. I stated that I have never done a loan as such, and to please provide me with whatever documentation he had because there had to be a mistake somewhere. He then went on to state that if I did not handle the matter today I would be served. My response was, I need documentation of what he was speaking of and if he could not provide that then I will wait to be served. He said not a problem, and hung up the phone. Tried recalling as he did not give a name, however, called four times and no answer. Did not confirm any information with the exception of my name.
