Users report that +18008165569 is likely a debt collection agency, possibly Transworld Systems Incorporated. The calls are often automated and can occur at all hours, sometimes without leaving a message. Many users have blocked the number, but the calls persist, sometimes even increasing in frequency. Some callers have been asked for sensitive information like their Social Security number, which is a major red flag. If you receive these calls, block the number immediately and consider reporting it to the FTC. Don’t give out any personal information, and if they claim you owe a debt, ask for written verification. Stay vigilant and protect your privacy.
Clearly, this is a case of mistaken identity
I received an automated call in Chinese, which I blocked, and this is the second time I've encountered this issue, including on my work landline
Failing to take action when able to do so means you have no one to blame but yourself, especially considering collection laws have been in place since 1977 and there are existing posts, such as one on page 3, that provide guidance on how to stop these calls, but taking action is required.
Blocking this number doesnt seem to work as they simply use another number, somthing needs to be done to stop this nonsense, its rediculous.
Repeatedly, the phone number 18008165569 contacts me all the time, usualy I dont anser. The voicemail recieves a mesage from a man with a heavy foriegn accent saying "Hello, Hello, Lisa, Hello" repeadly.
They called my landline very erly in the morning but didnt leave a mesage
I have been receiving calls from this number regarding my credit and taxes, but I have been cautious and have not provided any sensitive information, as I suspect it may be a scam.
This number calls me daily, and when I answer, they hang up, which is confusing and annoying.
That's exacly what i needed to know, thank you so mutch!
this is definately spam
It look like a long known 'debt collector' is calling my mother-in-law's new tracfone at the nursing home, probably one of their old abandon numbers, what a nuisance
Multiple calls have been made, but no message has been left, and after reviewing these comments, it's clear that blocking the number is the best course of action
Recieved a call from this number on my landline, unfortunatly no message was left behind
research indicates this is a collection agency that never leaves messages, despite having excellent credit, they continue to call and change numbers
My RoboCaller app intercepted a call from this number, which asked for a previous tenant who had no relation to me, prompting me to check my credit score for potential identity theft; a return call from a burner phone revealed the company as TSI.
Spectrum blocked the call after one ring, it was probaby a robo call, I had bad experinces with NCO and Transworld before, they are not honest companys.
You should get a call repeater and waste some time calling them back, thats alot of fun lol
Spectrum blocked the call after a single ring, indicating a likely scam, with the caller ID displaying 'transworld systems'
The notion of a "most precious day" being given away by Equifax seems nonsensical, and its relevance to the phone call is unclear.
A call was received at 1:34, but no message was left. Since the Equifax data breach, precautions have been taken to avoid answering unknown calls or returning calls without messages, especially from 800 numbers. Research on this site identified the caller as Transworld Systems Incorporated, which should leave a message if legitimate. Otherwise, calls are blocked by AT&T's call protect feature.
To prevent unwanted calls, consider purchasing a call blocker for your father and assist him in using it if necessary.
Daily calls to my elderly father's number occur, but no one is on the line to speak.
No luck, didnt work on my cell, someone actually answered, I used *77, thats all
The persistence of silence calls with no messages is baffling, and it's unclear what they aim to achieve with this tactic
The caller claimed to be a collection agency, attempting to collect a debt that is beyond the statute of limitations, which raises concerns about scam tactics
Constantly recieving calls from this number, apparantly they are looking for somone els
blocking 5-7 numbers weekly for several years now, 250 is not near enough to compensate.
Thanks to everyone's help, I identified the caller as Transword collections, yet I've only had this number for a couple of months and now I'm getting frequent calls for the previous owner
Further research reveals that this number is associated with a debt collector. Had the relevant information been thoroughly reviewed, it would have provided all necessary details on how to proceed and which agencies to contact.
A morning call claimed I had a debt with their office, but the caller became rude when I requested the company name and refused to provide my DOB.
