I have been receiving calls at my place of employment, they don’t say who they are calling for, not even sure if for me, but the number they leave for a return call is 866-849-2442.

What we do with our cell phones is not answer any calls that we do not have in the logged into the contacts list, or that we do not recognize the number. We then check those unknown numbers on the computer complaints sites, and if it is a harrasing or related mumber, we put into the contact list for that mumber.
DO NOT ANSWER. If that number shows up on the sell phone, we let it ring. After a while they generally stop calling.

Contact credit reporting agencies and dispute the debt. They will investigate and remove if paid off.

In addition to the FTC, also report lowlife companies like NCO to your state Attorney General as well as your state Dept. of Licensing. All collection companies, regardless of where they are located must by law, have a license issued from EVERY state they try to collect in, and recently several have been caught fat & happy without one. Many such state licensing departments have their own C.A. boards whose sole purpose is to make life hell for rouge collectors who don’t play by the rules. Several years ago, we were being illegally hounded by two really nasty agencies for other people’s accounts. They made it clear they didn’t have to stop harassing us, but a few of these written complaints changed their minds real fast! One thing that works well is to file complaints of violations BEFORE sending them a DV letter and telling them the complaints will be renewed every time you hear from them. We never heard from them again, and just for good measure, we found the people they were looking for and turned them on to every consumer protection website out there, including Budd Hibbs. Hey, you tip your hand, you get it slapped!

Hey, Dan: there’s this handy little function on your computer known as “Spell-Check” that you might want to try. As for a phone company, I would pay them, but would gladly use two cans and a string before I would ever give a dime to the vermin at NCO. These scum deserve every bit of bad press they have and then some. They are officially listed among America’s top 10 worst collection agencies, although their tactics have no place in America. It’s a horrible reputation the brought entirely on themselves through their absolute lack of ethics or professionalism. They don’t care if you ever owed the debt or not just as long as they can scam it out of you or anyone else. They hounded us for months over someone else’s expired accounts and only stopped after we reported them to our state licensing Dept. and the FTC. We also located the person they were looking for and told him all about where he could go to learn about his rights under the FDCPA. Now, his old time-barred accounts are really worth their weight in dog shit!

NCO made a mistake by targeting me. I have learned the real laws. Understand the differences between artificial person and natural person. I copyrighted my fiction. My name in all capitol letters. Anyone or any business attempts to use my name in all Capitol letters and make money using it, they are in violation. The fine is one million dollars in silver specie due to me for every violation per issuer and user. That is silver dollars. Not federal reserve notes. I used stamps autographed by me to invoke the power of the UPU. Got them by the b@!!$ now!

I was checking my credit report and noticed a $500 past due note from NCO and have no clue what it is strange that is an even $500.00 so I gave them a call and they asked for info and told me they have no information with an account with that balance she did tell me there was one in 2010 but its been payed and she told me to look at my credit report and give her the claim number. I didn’t have the report handy so I asked why she couldn’t search and I didn’t get an answer after several attempts I gave up. Should I call back with the acct # or just report the problem, I don’t recall any debt that. I have and due to all negative comments concerned if.they’re trying to pull a a fast one on me granted I won’t pay unless I know.but shouldn’t they know if I.owe them?

Think about exactly what kind of a person would accept a job where the job description is to harass people, all day long, every day. If they didn’t have that job they probably wouldn’t have any job. The only job requirement is that you know how to sit at a make-shift desk in a dingy building, barking at people on the phone all day.

Worst case, even if the person they are calling really does owe them money, realistically, no one is going to send a check to a nasty jackass who lacks professionalism and who works for a shady outfit with unscrupulous business practices.

NCO Financial Systems depends on you picking up the phone when they call you. That’s how they make money. Once you pick up and say, “Hello?” they got you. First, they record all calls, and the creditors are able to listen to the recording. Second, when they make a contact, you picking up, your phone number goes right to Robo calling, which could mean twenty to fifty calls per day for the next seven years, or until you pay. Third, if you blow them off, and you have a job, and you are under sixty, you go to the lawyers. It’s real simple, folks, if a collection agency calls, tell them to stop calling and hang up. If the debt goes to the credit bureaus, dispute it. Even if they can prove you owe the debt, as long as you stick to that one single word: dispute. (You are not legally obligated to give a reason, and by law, they are legally obligated to dispute your debt for you) They are then forced to write it off. You are not bound to pay a disputed debt.

you should contact IRS and find out what is going on. I thought I had heard something about IRS using private debt collectors, but I am not sure if true or not. IRS has the power to levy your bank account, but things have gone downhill there and they are now afraid to use all their powers in fear of getting congressional complaints about levying, etc. However, you should contact them and ask about the status of your unpaid liability. They can tell you if an outside collection agency is involved, or in what status your account is in.

get an unlisted number or a cell phone under your wife or relative’s name. Otherwise, get caller ID and don’t answer the phone when you see a strange number calling.

It could be regarding a relative or someone with the same last name in your town. I received one today for a relative. They were cold-calling people in my town with the same last name on the hope someone would know the person and give them info. No matter who is calling, people need to remember to not give anyone info of any kind over the phone. Buy, people more often than not will do so in an effort to be helpful, I guess. Your best bet is to just say you have no idea who the person is. Never hear of them, don’t live here, etc.

I have always found that swearing loudly at these kinds of people works—sometimes. If not, you can always blow a whistle in the phone when they come on the line.
