Someday in March I obtained a telephone call from Bay Area Credit Support, LLC, situated in Antioch CA, 94509. I had been informed that I owed AT&T $158, and questioned easily still existed at (some tackle) in Overland Park, Kansas. Today I understand where Overland Park is, but I've never existed there. I described all of this however the only reaction I acquired was that I owed this cash which to be able to match it I'd need to give a large amount of identifying data. I required anything written down, and also the guy kept requesting more recognition information. At this time I told him to deliver me anything written down.
Many weeks later I obtained a box containing mainly of needs for additional information, including SSN, passport number, driver's permit number, etc. Following A short discussion having a friend of mine who's an attorney within Va, who explained this might be an identification theft fraud, I determined that I'd supply some information, for example bills, although not economic info.
I had been focusing on that, but got diverted from the needs of my new work and did not end it. On June 12 I acquired a telephone call from IC Methods, stating that I currently owed about $1800, and also the guy (Justin) recommended I would wish to spend component today and put up a cost plan for the remaining. I told him I'm not likely to spend a statement that's not officially mine. He also stated I'd provided the prior owner (Bay Area Credit Support, I suppose) a fake telephone number (which is really a outright lie), that was the reason behind them-not calling me faster. He then hung-up on me, after threatening to see numerous credit score organizations.
I called back in the quantity he'd provided me and talked having a lady who essentially reiterated what Justin had explained, and wasn't thinking about informing me something apart from I owed the cash plus they were likely to gather it (she did not say how), and advise the credit score people. She also stated "Our organization is just a very reliable company" before she put up.
A research of the BBB in St Paul, utilizing IC Methods, didn't return any info for that organization. I came across a utilizing Google, and discovered approximately 20 firmly worded issues concerning the method they are doing business.
A EEE look for Bay Area Credit Support, LLC, zipcode 94509 led to a “no results” concept, as did a look for exactly the same company in California.
Does anybody have any suggestions about ways to get these folks to acknowledge they are incorrect, and prevent the nuisance?
