Imagine receiving a call that claims you owe an old debt and threatens a civil judgment unless you sign a release form. The voice mentions a locating agency called Premier locating and cites firms like Meyers & Strauss to sound legit. This pattern matches a classic scam that uses fake debt‑collection pressure to harvest personal information. Hang up immediately, never provide SSN or banking details, and block the number. Verify any claim by contacting the actual creditor directly, and report the call to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection office. Staying skeptical and documenting the call can stop future attempts.
A recorded message claimed to be from Myers and Strauss, stating that a package with urgent documents was being held, and requested that I press two to stop further calls.
This is a scam; they operate under various names, including Meyers and Strauss, Davis and Edwards, and Morris and Meyers, utilizing a system called idicore to gather information on potential targets
A man claiming to be Brian Martinez from Premier Locating Service called my ex-wife, stating that people are looking for me
the concept of a 'release' is being misused in this context, and it is essential to hold them accountable to the law
The caller from this number informed me that I needed to sign a release form and settle a debt to avoid being served with a civil judgment.
I think they are trying to trick me into signing a contract, so they can sue me, but i am not falling for it
A call claiming to be from a debt collector, Davis and Edwards, asserted that a debt from 2009 was owed, and they attempted to email a liability release form, but the legitimacy of this claim is questionable
Instead of simply asking a rhetorical question, it would be more helpful to share information about the scam and the call, so that others can be aware of what to expect if they receive a similar call
Why are you tryin to scam me
Their approach gives the impression of legitimacy.
Strauss and associates requested personal information before disclosing the purpose of the call.
They were talking about a debt from 2004, sound's like a scam to me
The same experience has been reported by me as well.
It appears that others have received similar messages.
The caller claimed there was a complaint against me that needed to be addressed to prevent escalation, although they've called multiple times without leaving a message.
