I too have had the experience of dealing with ALW Sourcing. I asked them to verify who they were and why they were contacting me and they could not do it. (Kept refering me to a website, which we all know can be a pharming/phising scam - -fradulent.)
After reading on here that NCO and ALW are the same company (which the ALW rep told me they purchased my account from NCO), I contacted TransUnion regarding the 'individual' inquiries these 2 companies made against me. TransUnion was no help. They said to dispute these inquiries, the only thing I could do was contact these 2 companies (which did not provide phone numbers!) and have them submit a letter to TransUnion authorizing the inquiry removal. Umm, excuse me? In my credit report it says *I* authorized them... Yet *I* do not have the authority to remove/dispute them? Something fishy is going on.
Like the other people mention, I too have a very good credit score I have worked my butt off to maintain. I am scared that this company will keep forcing inquires against me if I don't "pay what is owed". (Scare tatic). Anyone else been able to beat them?
