(877) 704-9452

Thank you for the letter and information you provide

I got a call from a company calling themselves CRA from 757-271-7549 at 8:55am EST today.  They said they were trying to collect a debt.  I asked what debt was that?  they said they were pulling it up and before he pulled it up he asked me if my name was bruce carson.  I said NO.  Then he asked me if i knew anyone named "Bruce", I said NO.  Then he asked me if my name was Jimmie.  I said NO.  Then he asked me if my name was Ramone.  I said NO, why are you asking me all these names?  I also told them i've had this number for a solid 10 years.  He said he took my name out of the system.  they clearly had the wrong info.  sounded shady.

keep receiving calls on my cell phone (in my maiden name) for my husband, we are newly weds and do not share any accts.    at***ude and threatening type messages, must call back today.  she leaves 877-704-9452 as cell phone says "Bobbie", as her call back.   He does not have any unpaid debts.  I've heard On-Star has done this type of thing to keep people enrolled, we only had free trial and one 3-month promo paid at time of call.........the 757-271-1549 number that is caller ID, is CRA (I called both numbers back) and is recording to hold, yeah right, take your time, I'll wait......

Same message as everyone else. How do we stop this nonsense?

I just got a call from them looking for my wife and when i called back, 2 of them ***g up on me in mid convorsation and the 3rd person told me not to call them back ever a***n. what a scam.

Got a call from CRA this morning too on my cell phone which is in my husbands name.  They also called my work and asked for me by my maiden name in which my employer does not list me as.  They told them I did not work there.  I tried to call this 877-704-9452 Kasey Price from CRA left me this morning and i sat on hold FOREVER, no one ever came on the line.  From what I can find out they are trying to collect an old debt from me from a Qwest bill I had more than 7 years ago.  I will not pay them a dime for this because as many others have stated, they refuse to send do***entation by mail...My attorney told me they by law have to notify you by mail of any debts owed or in order to seek legal action upon anyone!

I am Sheryl's Mother, Ruth Clinton.  This person - Kelly Shelley (spelling?) - called my number to get ahold of my daughter.  I asked her what she wanted and she wouldn't tell me.  I told her that most 877 calls were scam calls, and she ***g up.  Date: 11/10/2010 8:30 a.m.

I got a call on my work line from this # 877-704-9452 from a "Sherri" and then I called back to confirm what this was about and see what CRA was... They asked me for my direct#. I would not give it to them; I also did not give my last name so I gave them the "claim" they gave me earlier on their first call and sure enough after the lady said she'll check on this, she ***g up on me. So this is a scam; although I don't know what info they are seeking--so beware!

Same thing here, a person that was named Sara said it was urgent that me or my rep. call her because of a serious matter............Like right dude.

877-704-9452 called me. The caller identified herself as Sara Kitchen but indicated no agency name. I told her I wasn't home but would take a message. She said the call was regarding case #1786642 and they needed a "statement" from me for some "preliminary paperwork." Sounds like a crock of sh*t to me.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS FORM LETTER!!!!

Thank Al Gore for the Internet!I just got a call from CRA - Nancy Henry - Asking to speak to me. Of Course I said I wasn't home. She said the matter was extreme important and I might not aware of the situation.This lady sounded very firm but would not release any other information.At first I was concerned. But I realized that the number they called was a Cell phone and IT'S in my wife's name. I ask her to send information certified mail so that she could make sure I got the information. She refused and said the call was a one time only thing.I then asked "So We shouldn't expect any further calls?" She just replied that it's important I call them back. *** chance lady!!!!  The call came from: 864-845-2084 a Piedmont SC Land Line. County:     AndersonLa***ude:      34.71Longitude: -82.46That's all the FREE information I could get.

Husband talked to them today, and the fact that  i did collections for 10 years, I know these people are trying to collect old debts that were wrote off "scavenger debts"  he asked for them to send him information and they said they wouldnt until he committed to paying them  "he said NO"  PEOPLE do not committ to them, more than likely these are debts that are way way past the Statute of Limitations and if you committ to paying them without proof on paper the Statute s****s over a***n.....THEY CANNOT SUE YOU    tell them this debt is past the Statute of Limitations and try and take you to court!!!  If this was a legitimate debt they would have no problem sending you any paperwork at all!!!!  If you can get their address this is the letter you send them, first check the statute of limitations in your state.Your NameYour Address Collector's NameCollector's Address RE: [insert account number or name of account or name of debt]: Dear [insert collector's name or company name], This letter is in response to your [letter dated **-**-2005] (copy enclosed) or [phone call on **-**-2005], concerning the collection of the above referenced [account or date]. I do not believe I owe what you say I owe therefore I dispute this debt. I am well aware of my rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and my state laws so I hope to save both of us a great deal of time by letting you know that not only do I dispute the validity of this debt, I have also checked with my State Attorney General and verified that the Statute of Limitations for enforcing this type of debt through the courts in (insert your state or the state in which the contract was signed) has expired. Therefore, should you decide to pursue this matter in court I intend to inform the court of my dispute of this debt and that the "statute of limitations" has expired. This letter is your formal notification that I consider this matter closed and demand that you, or anyone affiliated with your company, stop contacting me regarding this or any other matter except to advise me that your debt collection efforts are being terminated or that you or the creditor are taking specific actions allowed by the FDCPA or my state laws. Be advised that I consider any contact not in accordance with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act a serious violation of the law and will immediately report any violations to my State Attorney General, to the Federal Trade Commission and, if necessary, take whatever legal action is necessary to protect myself. Be advised that I tape record all phone calls and violations of the FDCPA can result in you or your company being personally fined up to $1,000 per incident. (Sign above name)Printed Name

This number constantly calls early in the morning asking for my uncle or w***ver represents him. The caller is always rude and my uncle isn't in any trouble.

This # called my girlfriend cell phone this morning.Casey Price was very rude to my girlfriend. She disclosed info and implied that i needed representation. I called and they were talking about a bill that happened 8 yrs ago. I live in Wa and Wa is a closed state, and most of the files they have are past statute of limitation to recover. So even paying it off wont help. Scammers like this make it hard for a real collector like me to make money. Do no pay these guys.

This number keeps calling.
