- Glendale, AZ, USA • Apr 30, 2024

said they were a process server and to call 888 672-3451. and they were going to serve legal papers if I didn't call with a ref#. I didn't call but was left another message that I didn't answer. the original call was from an area code around here so I answered due to I'm expecting doctor calls for my mother-in-law. Annoying so I researched the phone# and found it's a scam. They even were asking if I were home to serve me papers.

- Dunkirk, NY, USA • Apr 26, 2024

Scammer called my fiancé and left a very detailed message from the number 888-316-5470 stating that this was a very serious matter that they are trying to serve him paperwork to collect a debt and then listed his full name, our physical address, his last 4 of his social and date of birth. Then stated that this was a very serious matter and that we needed to call them back immediately or they would be going to his employer to serve him paperwork. We immediately contacted them back. It rang twice and a woman answered the phone who was clearly American (no accent and we could fully understand her) stating that she worked for an agency called CDL. She did not ask us any of our information and said that our number is linked with the account for (my fiancés name). I called from my personal cell phone which is registered in my name so she had access to both of our cell phones numbers. At first she was pleasant and explained to us that she works for a collection agency and is trying to collect a debt from him from a Kays Jewelers account that was used from 2011-2013. My fiancé (at the time) did not remember ever opening a credit card through them and we have never gotten any letters in the past 13 years trying to collect this debt from him. She then read us off our physical address, his FULL SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER, his date of birth and every address he has lived at since the credit card was opened. I am a educated social worker and about 8 years ago we went through credit counseling together so that we could buy a house. At that time there was never a Kays Jewelers collection on his account and we did this back in 2014/2015. We explained this to her and she proceeded to tell me to contact Kays, gave me the original account number and said that we could call her back and pay her the $827 to settle the debt before they send someone to serve us with court papers to appear in court to settle the debt. I told her that i would do my research and get back to her.

After I did my research, I confirmed that my fiancé did have a debt through Kays jewelers and they were able to tell me the exact items charged, when they were charged and that the debt he owed Kays at the time that they sold the debt was $383. They told me that they originally sold the debt in November of 2013 to a National Credit adjusters. We then googled anything we could about "CDL" debt collection and everything we were reading online was that they were a scam. They had no website, no address, just a phone number. So we decided to ignore it as the debt is currently not on any of his credit reports. I also spoke to our credit counselor about it and since we received nothing in the mail, the debt was over 10 years old, and they were only contacted us through phone we decided to ignore it.

Days later, a random number from our local area of 716-221-3832 contacted me on my personal number (never called my fiancé) so i answered since it was local inquiring about me paying off the debt we discussed earlier in the week as they hadn't heard from us and if we were not going to settle the debt they would be serving us with papers and would be taking us to court. She then told me that i had to contact the number listed prior to discuss payment options with her.

I called back that 888 number and the same woman we initially spoke to answered in 2 rings asking yes is this (my fiancés full name). I said no, this is his fiancé and stated my full name and she said yes and asked if i figured out if it was his debt or not. I proceeded to tell her that i did not (which i did) but wanted to see what she was going to say. She proceeded to basically tell me that my fiancé should know about the debt that he has, and that he is irresponsible and should have taken care of this a long time ago. That i needed to pay this off with them right away or we would be served with court papers and that it would cost us ALOT more money if we wait and go to court because then we would be liable for attorney and court fees and that it would be best for me to just pay it today with her. I then told her that i needed something in writing regarding what we owed and asked her to send us a letter regarding the debt. She told me that they don't do that and that letters were sent years ago but now they will not be sending me a letter and its either i pay the debt or they will be serving me with court. I then told her that nothing she is saying sounds legitimate and i basically called her out on the fact that i thought she was trying to scam us and that unless i get more information i was not going to be paying anything with our debit/credit cards over the phone. She then started getting very defensive and rude with me. I told her that i would be contacting kays and doing my research and calling her back.

I researched what to ask the debt collectors that i thought were scamming me to find out if they were a legitimate company or not. You are supposed to ask what company they work for, their address, phone number, email address and website. If they wont give you that information then most likely it is a scam.

I then called back the 888 number again and it was the girl that called from the 716 number prior. She knew who i was and said that she was trying to pull the assigned worker from a meeting to talk to me about my fiancés case. I then said well maybe you could answer my questions. I just want to know what agency you work for and she responded with CDL. I said ok and do you have an address that you could give me. She said "Ehhhh hang on a second" and proceeded to put me on hold for over a min. The rude woman i previously spoke to then got on the phone and said so did you do your research did you contact Kays? I told her that I did and she asked what i found out. I proceeded to say that i do not feel the need to share that information with you at this time, i am calling because my credit counselor wanted me to call you and ask for your company name address.... She then cut me off and said "No i don’t have to deal with this, he will be getting served papers we will see you in court and hung up on me". Making it very clear to me that it was a scam.

My fiancé was a little scared and wanted to call back just to ensure that it was a scam. We called back the same number that we received the initial phone call from. It rang for a very long time and this time I recorded the entire interaction. The phone was finally answered by a male this time who pretended he had no idea who we are and continuously kept putting him on hold “looking at the notes made” by the previous people we had spoken to. Keep in mind every other call was made by the same woman who hung up on me. He came back over 10 mins later stating that if we were willing to pay the debt they would stop any paperwork being served so that we didn’t have to go to court and that he had to get approval from their “loss mitigation” department. My fiancé told them that he would be willing to pay them and asked how he would be able to do that. He stated that they ONLY took payment via credit or debit card. He asked if we could get something in writing regarding us making the payment he said that he could. We told him that we wouldn’t be able to pay it today because he didn’t get paid until next week. He stated that was fine and that they would take our card info today and then issue the payment for the date he got paid. My fiancé asked him for his name so that we could call him back after looking over the letter so that we can pay him directly instead of having to deal with another worker. He said his name was “JIM EVANS”. We asked him for his direct extension and he said his extension was 300. We told him then that we would call him back in the morning to pay him once we reviewed the letter. He straight up told us NO. He said I thought you said you wanted to handle this. MY fiancé stated that he did but that he wanted to look it over. He said that we can look it over and call him back in 1 hour, that it shouldn’t even take us an hour but if they don’t hear from us in an hour that they will be serving us with the court paperwork and that we wouldn’t be able to solve it outside of court if we didn’t call him back. We then asked for the company name, phone number, email and website. He stated that the name, address and phone number would be on the letter that he sent us VIA EMAIL. He was rude and then ended the conversation abruptly questioning why we were asking him questions.

After looking at the letter the company’s name is Newport Receivables. When you google that there is no website or legit company information and everything says scam. The address was google mapped and it is a building that says Café on the front and there is nothing listed that they are renting any space from the building. All the phone numbers come up as a scam. AND the name Jim Evans comes up that his is being sewed for stealing a clients money and not paying off her debt which is what he was supposed to do with her money. Due to this, and speaking with our credit counselor we decided to block all numbers that were called and wait to be served with papers if it was legit.

About 5 days after we both got a phone call from a new “spam risk” number out of the Rochester area 585-209-5942 number asking us if we were going to pay they called both of us on our separate phone numbers one right after the other. My fiancé was called first and asked if he was going to pay the debt and he honestly told them to “**** off” and serve him with the paperwork. They then called me and said that my fiancé didn’t seem to want to cooperate with them and asked if I wanted to pay the debt. They proceeded to say that if I don’t they will be serving both of us with court papers. I as well told them to serve me the papers. That was over 5 days ago and we have not been served with any paperwork.

Called two days in a row for the same thing, I keep telling them that we would like to opt out and that we will not be cooperating with them, it sounded like someone frantically hung up the call when their "agent" started to get flustered. I had asked where they were calling from and what the phone number to their office is, and the agent kept telling me that she was calling because she "received an inquiry" from me (which I certainly did not send to her).

I called the number back and there was a mans voice, playing dumb as though they didn't know what I was even asking about. They hung up after not responding to me beyond the hello.

I got a call at work from "Kevin" at PSV. they first called my personal phone, but since I don't answer private or unknown numbers, it went to voicemail. 5 mins later I get a call at work stating I needed to call 888-383-4072. He gave me a case number and said there was a lawsuit against me. I've had these calls many times over the last 5 years so I knew it was a scam. But I made the stupid mistake of calling them back. The woman I spoke to stated she was calling from Ashcroft & Associates, a collection law firm & that I owed $4000 on a Mastercard that I supposedly had back in 2007. She confirmed an old address (which you can find on any people search website) and said the card was applied for from that address - I told her that I never had that card and that I wasn't even living in the states during this time. She got flustered & said we'll see you in court and hung up on me. When I called the number back it appeared I was blocked, so I found their web site ashcroftprofessionals.com and called 855-512-1139 - the guy “Kevin” from PSV answered the phone (hmmm)...I told him I was disconnected. He transferred me back to the woman I was speaking too - who never gave me her name - I told her that even though I never had the card in question, that it was a 17-year-old debt which had passed the statute of limitations of my state. She said because our parents (she called them boomers) caused so much debt over the years that these limitations were no longer valid, so the old debts needed to be paid for. I didn't disagree, but if this is something I never had, then why should were they calling me. She called me a liar and said she saw payments being made between 2001 to 2004. Confused, I asked how could she see payments on a card that was applied for in 2007? She said she had the documents. I asked her to send me these documents, she claimed she already sent them back in November, so I asked her to send them via certified mail. She became flustered again and kept calling me a liar, I started laughing and she said we'll see you in court and hung up.
