Type of a scam Debt Collections
I called the number he advised me to call and a female answered and asked for my case number. She told me that the legal department “upstairs” was handling my case and that she needed to transfer me, which she did.
I was transferred and greeted by another female who claimed the legal matter was through FDIC and was claiming it was possibly a “federal” debt and maybe through a bank. In my opinion, she was “acting” and pretended to act knowledgeable which was my first red flag. She then claimed I had an “infraction” debt of $4000 and some change against me. I started to question her about the claim and she couldn’t provide any details and needed to download the “pdf” of my legal matter. She put me on hold for about 5 minutes and came back to tell me the claim was through “Wells Fargo bank” and that it was fraud and that I needed to be served court papers and appear in front of a judge for my “fraudulent debt” and that the lawyers on this case were working on new legal documents for me. I asked her for their state bar number and that’s when things went south. She became very agitated and defensive and said I wasn’t entitled to a bar number nor were they required to give it to me. I argued with her that she was wrong and she said that I could request the “bar number” in front of a judge. She then started calling me names such as “[censored]” and a “bank robber”. She acted inferior to me, so I called her out yet again on fair credit act practices and reminded her that she was violating them and that how she was speaking to me was illegal, unethical and unprofessional. I told her I had three lawyers on retainer (which I do- I am a business owner) and she then said “a fraudulent person like you couldn’t afford one lawyer”. I then told her I did in fact have three lawyers and I would be providing them with information pertaining to this phone call. She then recited my social security number, birthdate, previous addresses, my current address and driver license number which left me feeling very unsettled. She then proceeded to tell me that I had four other judgments against me, “one through the state of California child support office”. Mind you, that debt has been paid off for years. I told her “well, if you had done your homework, you would know that driver licenses get suspended when child support debts aren’t made, and you clearly just stated my license is a “DL”, (not and “ID”) and current/active, and that the debt has been paid off for years!” She started yelling at me, impulsively and uncontrollably. I then realized the woman was clearly projecting her own actions that she was accusing me of said “this is a scam and I’m done speaking with you”. I called her a few choice words and hung up.
After the phone call I called Wells Fargo Bank and they informed me that it was indeed a scam. I also contacted the Butte County District Attorney’s office who will be calling me tomorrow to take the information from this call.
I will also be calling the social security administration tomorrow to put a flag on my social to protect me from any further actions these fraudulent criminals might take against me.
To add, I did call the original phone number back that had called from Chico, CA and the phone number was no longer in service. Big red flag!
