I got a call from this number this morning, I dont answer any calls that I don't recognize, I just let it go to voicemail and if it's important, they can leave a voicemail. These people did not, and because it was a phone number in my area code, I was curious, so I blocked my number and called back to hear THEY'RE voicemail greeting, and it was this Ted Lee. I immediately came on here to check out who this guy is and after reading all of your posts, I am ALREADY fired up. I suggest the same as FedUpWithScammers and WE s**** harassing THEM. I'm about to call them and s**** asking all sorts of invasive questions and let them know that I know plenty about who they are and what kind of operation they run and that I just so happen to be engaged to an attorney that specializes in this sort of thing. Thanks for your info guys, FIGHT THESE *******S!

This number keeps calling me and I need my rest as I have been very ill!!!!

Fight back!  These are scammers.  Report them!  Call them repeatedly to harrass and threaten them and give them a does of their own medicine.   These are low lifes that instead of getting a legitimate job tom amke money they prefer to spend their the time ripping off honest people.  Let's put these criminals out of business.

Thanks for the link - I received a call from 800-841-3520 today.  Since I knew I did not owe anybody for the bill they said I owed - to Goggle I went and there I found your post with the link to the state - thank you

This is definitely a debt collector ... Some lady asked to speak to me and I was like "WHO?!?!" She said "I'm trying to reach a ... (so and so)..." So, I said "You got the wrong number, lady!" BAM - everything was settled. She didn't call back!

Ted Lee has a new number ! 800-841-3520I recieved a message friday on my ma****e when i got home from work. It sounded exactly like kates in fl word for word. You all have me scared , but i am so curious to know what it is that i owe?? He had my name from previous marriage of man that was lots of troubleHe also left an acount number on this meassge that i thought was terrible illegal

I didn't get a call, or letter, or anything. A collection just showed up on my credit report. I was advised to pay it, by registered letter to confirm receipt. It's a great scam they've got going there.

I filed a complaint with the Attorney Generals office, I suggest any others who are abused use the links and proper channels to do the same.

My wife called me practically in tears after receiving a extremely rude call from this company. I am deployed to Iraq as of now and have both Medicaid AND Tricare. The woman demanded cash payment despite my wifes attempts to explain that she had two insurances. The woman was relentless however and continued to demand payment by cash or or she would report us. My wife told her that she had never even received a bill through the mail about the visit. The woman told my wife where she lived, my wife replied, "Well thats not my actually not my adress." She corrected the woman with the correct address, right after the zip code the woman ***g up on her.My wife is pregnant and alone... she doesnt need this sort of abuse. Especially unjustified abuse from a debt collector.

Collectors cannot tell anyone that you owe a debt.I had recently received to messages from a man with an intimidating deep voice who identified himself as “Ted Lee of CIB”. In the message were statements such as “CIB has been hired to pursue further efforts a***nst you for the resolution of account number 77****-7 to resolve  a past due account ...”.According to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act a collector may not tell anyone other than you (or an attorney that you hired for such an action) that you owe anyone money. By leaving a message on a  telephone answering ma****e indicating that you owe a debt is doing just that and as such is a violation of the law. * Anyone up for a class-action law suit?_________________________________________*     The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York recently held that a pre-recorded message left on a consumer’s telephone answering ma****e by a debt collector was a “communication” under the federal Fair Debt Collection practices Act. Foti v. NCO Fin. Sys., Inc., No. 04-CV-707 (KMK), 2006 WL 779774, *9 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 25, 2006).

After I set up a payment plan and gave my bank account information to CIB to have my payments withdrawn from my account, I tried for 3 days to get them to fax a statement to my local bank that I was on a payment plan.  A female I spoke with set up the payments but told me she personally couldn't fax the payment plan to my bank, so a male I spoke with at CIB told me to fax my request for them to fax the info to my bank.  I did, but nothing was done.  When my banker told me that I needed to be persistent and that CIB should honor my request, I talked with the rudest "manager" who told me that CIB did not do payment plans (even though I had given them my bank acct #) and would not fax the information.  She spent most of her time chastising me for calling CIB and not calling her directly (though I had called the only number I knew and kept asking what difference the number made since I was now speaking with her).  She demanded payment in full and when I tried to explain that this was the only medical bill (out of many!) that I owed, she got rude and ***g up on me. I can't believe anyone would refuse money in a payment plan from my checking account.

I got a call from these people.  The Company is actually a debt collector.  They sometimes call themselves 'doctors business bureau' or 'law office of Ted Lee'. The correct name of the company is Collection Information Bureau.  The address is:  202 N Federal Hwy, Lake Worth, Florida 33460-3438.  Telephone: (561)588-0300 Fax: (561) 588-0933.  The registered agent is: Ronald M. Rode.  There are several rules that a debt collector MUST abide by.  One rule (FOR COMPLETE LIST OF HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF VISIT FLORIDA ATTORNEY GENERAL AT http://myfloridalegal.com  AND ENTER DEBT COLLECTOR INT THE SEARCH BAR)  is that a debt collector must send a written notice within five (5) days after you are first contacted. The notice must indicate how much money you owe and the name of the creditor. The notice must also explain what action to take if you believe that you do not owe the money. Best bet if you believe that you are being harassed by a debt collector is to file a complaint on-line with the Florida Attorney General.  Go to http://myfloridalegal.com to do this.  If they receive enough complaints they will take action.

Ted Lee isn't a debt collector.  He is a scam artist.  Do NOT give him your personal information!

Some guy reported this to us at the police department as possible fraud.  So I call Mr. Ted Lee tell him I'm a police Officer and to give me a call back as soon as he can.  Haven't heard from this POS yet.  Take care of yourselves folks.

These people are relentless I have recieved up to 7 phone calls, back to back from the same number.  I find this extremely irritating, harra*****t for certain.

this was a desputed charge from 11 years ago

Its a creditor calling, that does nothing but chastise you, EXTREMELY rude.

This number has been calling me non-stop all day. My phone is literally ringing off the hook. Every time I get a call from them, I get a call from 386-756-9530. Strange. . .
