Heads up: unknown callers using the +1‑805‑506‑3411 number often claim to be debt collectors targeting medical lab bills that many recipients never received. Before sharing personal information or making a payment, request a written validation notice that details the alleged debt, the original creditor, and your right to dispute within 30 days. Verify the claim directly with the medical provider or lab cited, and check your credit report for any entries. Hang up if the caller becomes aggressive, refuses to send documentation, or pressures you to pay immediately. Report persistent scams to the FTC, your state attorney general, and consider blocking the number on your device.
A medical bill collector contacted me, trying to collect on a debt from three years ago that I have no record of, offering a discount if I pay immediately, a classic scam tactic.
The caller's behavior was deemed threatening and rude, promptly hanging up when confronted
An attempt was made to deceive me into paying a non-existent bill over the phone, with the caller providing only an invoice number and no account number.
I experienced a similar interaction with this number today, and it was utterly frustrating
Received a call from a partially blocked number
A man claiming to be Hunter from First Point Financial and Collections contacted me, stating I owed $420 for lab services to US Diagnostics Labs from 9/18/2018, offering three payment options, but couldn't provide the provider's name, and strangely, I had a lab services appointment at a local clinic that day, but they said I owed nothing
This number is defenitly a scam, beaware!
The same individual called on 2/12/21, demanding payment for a supposed debt from 2018 related to Medical Diagnostics, using my name and claiming to have database information, but became aggressive when questioned.
To validate a debt, a letter must be sent containing a 'mini-Miranda' notification, stating the purpose of the attempt and the right to dispute the debt within 30 days. Upon receiving such a letter, it's crucial to respond with a debt validation letter via certified mail to halt collection activities until the debt is verified.
Similar to others, we received a call from American Diagnostics Lab in February 2018, attempting to collect $400 and threatening court action, but the conversation turned rude, and upon quoting our address, it became clear this was a scam.
With over 30 reported instances, including my own submission to the CA attorney general's office, it's perplexing to see the count at 30 now
I just got a call from (805) 506-3411, and they said they were a debt collector, but i know i dont owe them anything, becuse i never had any lab work done on the date they gave me.
It's suspicious that a supposed debt collector is monitoring this discussion, indicating they're concerned about their reputation and attempting to manage public perception.
I find it suspicious that your report contains no misleading information, yet you withheld your employer's full name and there appears to be no record of such a company in California, suggesting potential fraudulent activity
Is this accompaning some kind of misinformation?
The person hung up on me when i asked them why they calld.
Your employer may not be pleased when I expose your illicit activities online.
It's suspicious that someone would look up a known phone number without a logical reason, raising concerns about potential scams or deceitful activities.
I spoke with Charles, and we was able to resolve the debt in a profesional manner
