Picture this: your phone lights up with an unknown number, and a voice claims to represent Asset Recovery Solutions, demanding payment on an old debt. Never share personal or financial details before you verify the caller’s identity in writing. Under the FDCPA, a legitimate collector must send you a written notice within five days that includes their name, address, the original creditor, and the amount owed. If you receive nothing, treat the call as a potential scam and block the number. Report the incident to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection agency, and keep a log of all interactions for future reference.
A call labeled as 'SPAM RISK' by ATT was blocked, and since no message was left, I looked up the number to find this page, unsure why they're calling and suspecting it might be a scam or a wrong number
While I was on the phone, this number called me, I checked who it was, and it said Illinois, but thanks to the people who posted about this number, I know its bogus, and I hope the authorities will catch the spammer.
This number is associated with ASSET RECOVERY SOLUTIONS, LLC
The notion that they are a legit debt collector seems to be an oximoron, doesnt it?
The statement has convinced me to disregard calls from this number, as it implies the opposite of what is intended
The implication seems to be that the bill in question went to collections due to non-payment.
This company is a legit debt collector, they have my student loan debt which is valid, no issues here.
The concept of the statute of limitations (SOL) and its implications are well understood, and attempts to equate 'no longer collectible' with 'cannot be sued for' are misleading, especially considering that outside of Wisconsin and Mississippi, debt collection can proceed beyond the SOL, albeit without the ability to sue, unless a payment is made, which resets the SOL, allowing for potential lawsuits.
The previous poster didnt answer, so i will, company like this buy old debt, you may still owe the debt, but it's not collectible, you cant be sued for it, but if you admit the debt, the statute of limitation start over, and they can sue you
Never return calls from this number, as it is deemed a scam; the best course of action is to delete and block the number immediately.
This number is used by a debt collector, who tries to collect old debts that have been charged off by the original creditor, so be carefull
You claim that they buy old debt and try to con people into adminting it's theirs, but could you plese provide the relevent section of the law that supports this statement, sinc you made a factural claim?
This entity operates by purchasing old debts and attempting to deceive individuals into acknowledging them, thereby gaining a legal foothold.
I dont have any assets, just block the number, its a boiler room operation
This number calls frequently but never leaves a message.
A scammer named Juan claimed that my student loan had been transferred to their company and demanded payments, but after verifying with my loan company, it was confirmed as fraud.
