Westward Financial Reports & Reviews (9)

My son has received numerous phone calls from Westward Financial asking him to verify my address and ro contact me to let me know there is a suit to be filed against me in my county. They even gave a case number. I called the county courthouse there was no such case number filed. They asked him for my whereabouts and how they could reach me. They told him if he didn't cooperate there would be irreversible consequences.

SCAM...called them back and tried to find out who they were and what they were calling for. They said it is for a "civil complaint filed against me." Then they wanted me to verify my SSN over the phone. I told them no I don't know who they are and they said they didn't need it and hung up on me...ha that's a real professional legal company that hangs up on people they are trying to call.

I don’t answer them they are calling me claiming I owe money to a Visa card from 11 years ago. This was never on a credit report and the statue of limitations is 6 years here. I was advised by an attorney and the police to not communicate with them

Someone called from a Google (local) number looking for my mother about a property legal matter. My mother has not owned property for over 15 years. They gave me the toll free number 888-762-4681 as Westford Financial. When I asked what they wanted when I gave them a case number, they said it was for my mother and for her to call. I told them they were fake and scammers and I was promptly hung up on. Who can we report these [censored] to?

Received a text from this company looking for a shiela ried. I know no such person. I repeatedly requested a physical address and the woman was reluctant to give that information but they are located in California and you should demand that info. Once you have that info you can file a complaint with the attorney generals office in Cali if you feel you are being threatened or intimidated. Debt collectors can not contact you for information on another individual. So get he name and address of the company, then get he name or employee number of the person handling the case. If you feel that they are trying to scam or intimidate you, you can file a complaint with the California ag office. If you are being scammed by mail you can file a complaint with the US post office inspector generals office. If it is done by the internet via your emails you can file a complaint with the FBI internet fraud division. Remember your not alone these government agencies will go forward with your complaints and take them seriously regardless of who or were they are from.
I wish you all a long life of peace and stay safe :)))

Same experience, only they are locating my family members. Please know, I work in tech and these people cannot send messages like this or else they can be fined up to $1500 PER TEXT MESSAGE. This is not transactional, this is a do-not-contact text you did not opt into receiving. There is nothing even listed saying "this is an attempt to collect a debt" - I also recently paid off ALL my debt, so they can kiss my rear as I have paid everything on all accounts and have an excellent score! SCAM SCAM SCAM!

Just received a call from from a LSI representative named Brook at phone number 615-237-1405. She told me she had some sealed returned documents in her office that were about to go out for processing and that i needed to call this 888-762-4681 number and provide a case number to arrange receipt of the documents. The 888 number turned out to be Westward Financial. The representative told me I had an account with Continental Bank and the 200 balance turned into be owing over $1000 +. I told the rep i never saw this on my credit report nor did i ever receive anything in the mail. I requested information be sent to me by mail and the rep stated that several documents have been mailed to me and were ignored and the rep never did verify my mailing address. She stated that she could email me a written validation for the debt and 1 hour later, I still have not received the letter. Oh, she also told me she would place a one day courtesy hold on my account before proceeding with having the documents sent to my place of employment and home. I'm tired of companies taking advantage of people and their money because i am trying to pay off debt and clean up my credit report and you can not trust anyone. To anyone reading this NEVER give anyone money calling you, always call the company back if you feel it is a scam and pay that way. I always go on my credit report and obtain the companies phone numbers from there. These people are a scam. My thing is, if it is legit, go on and serve me B* at least if i get a summons i know its valid. That's where i am at this point and it's sad.. I'm soooo tired of these people (scammers) and i plan to file complaint after complaint until the calls stop. Good Luck, and hope this helps.

Both my wife and I received a call and text from LSI, regarding an open investigation pertaining to myself, ******* *****. I received a number and case file. When I called the company, I was transferred to Westward Financial, who instructed I have 24 hours before further legal actions were taken. The company was the First Bank of Delaware, and the balance was $2,000. I asked for a written validation, but the person on the phone stated I had 24 hours to respond and said that would be too long before action was taken. The day I called was the first day I made contact and I was under the impression I had at least 5 business days, and had the legal right to receive written notice in the mail, but they didn't really give me that option. Additionally, the address they had listed was an address I have not lived at for 7 years. I feel this may be a scam. Attached is the letter I received via email. The first contact received was last week (on or around 7/23/2020. Today is 7/28/2020. I also looked at my annual credit reports as of 7/28/2020, and the only account linked to this was what was referred (Continental Finance) and that was paid, closed/never late according to my Experian credit report.
