(800) 200-2018

These people called my cell phone and told me they had a long distance caller on the line needing to speak with me. They said my maiden name. I should have known then. I corrected my last name and they said they would connect me to them and then ***g up. I called the number back and the girl that answered stated it was FBCS and that she couldn't get into my file to delete my number because someone was still working in it. I want to know how these people got my cell phone number!!!! All of my numbers are on the Do Not Call list! That includes my cell numbers.

This number belongs to FBCS, Federal Bond Collection Services. They are an extremely sleezy collection agency based in Philadelphia that specializes in trying to collect very old debts known as time-barred debts. These debts are barred by law from being collecting via any legal means as the statute of limitations to sue the person in their home state has expired. (5-7 years in most states) In lieu of legitimate means to collect the debt they use trickery, intimidation and lies to get people to give over their bank acct. or cc numbers to pay bills from 5, 10 or even 20 years ago.  Unfortunately lots of people don't understand their rights and give these crooks money. Never, ever talk to them or give them any information as they will try to milk you dry. They will call from numerous numbers including 866-594-8667, 800-220-2018, 866-594-8651, 866-594-8647 regardless if you are on the do-not-call list or ask them to stop. File complaints about their tactics on donotcall.org and http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm and lets hope the government shuts them down.
