- Wellington, OH, USA

They called from 3804443399 and said that my wifes debt was picked up by a dept collector and left the number 18552952590 to call and try to work something out. Upon calling the 855 number with the reference number they left in voicemail they asked her , her name and to confirm the last 4 of social and address. Well when she said she started a new job and wont get paid until june. They said unless she pays its going to court thursday so i asked them to said a valadation letter stating the debt and original claim then they said yep and hung up. So i called back to make sure they put me on hold 20mins then hung up on me saying court was in 2 days. I looked up numbers and the ScamPulse.com flagged one for spam and other one was marked as spam with multiple people having same issues. I just want to make sure others dont get used.

I have received multiple phone calls from Amber MItchell at Greenwood and Allen. She asked for my ex-husband by name and said that she is "calling from the Aribitration department this file was forwarded to [her] office for potential resolution." She said she wants to give him an opportunity to "settle out the account." I Google Greenwood and Allen and came across many reports of scams, so I wanted to share my experience as well. They did not get any money from me.

Goldstein Resolutions' representative (Kimberly) called from 888-362-5665, ext. 211, stating she was calling from Goldstein Resolutions, said they were attempting to collect a debt because of a Breach of Contract with US Bank from 2009. They said they have a judgement for the amount of $5,000. I explained to them I don't believe I had an account there, if I did my ex-husband would have been the one that had it. I had a business several years ago and he emptied my business account. I told them that I'm only on Social Security and couldn't pay that, they then said, well we can bring it down to $988.53, I again said I can't pay that, the representative said, hang on a second let me check something, I waited for about 15-20 minutes, she came back and said, can you pay $790.82? I then again said I couldn't pay that much, because I don't get much more than that on Social Security. She said that I should call her back tomorrow. It just sounds fishy to me. I just don't know what to do.

- Richmond, VA, USA

I was contacted by an apparent debt collector that threatened a process server. They also called my job. I called them back. Them man on the phone who didn't provide any information to me, was very rude, refused to let me speak to a supervisor, told me that I must use an urban dictionary to find the word "supervisory" as it isnt a real word. I asked what was the collection for, he gave me information on a debt that I am not responsible for. He replied the debt was from 2015. When I asked for information on payment arrangements for this $800 debt he told me he couldn't do any payment arrangements and if I decided to go to court I would have to pay $3000. I asked again to speak with a supervisor he replied he could do a payment arrangement for $300/mth. As I continued to request a supervisor, he finally disconnected to call after insulting me a number of times. I tried to call back and the number was inactive or "the number you dialed does not exist." I called the same number from a different phone. A lady answered and I immediately asked for a supervisor and she transferred me back to the same man that I initially talked to. He immediately disconnected the call. I tried to call back and the number was inactive. I called a third time in which a different male answered the phone and proceeded to call me ghetto and he disconnected the call and I was unable to call back. This group of people were able to provide me with my last 4 of my social, my DOB and a past address.
