Direct Capital scam call – what to do now!
Summary — +18555368326
Expert Opinion
Bottom line: the calls from 855‑536‑8326 are a spoofed debt‑collection scam pretending to be a legal department of Direct Capital. Callers use personal data like the last four of your SSN to sound legitimate, then threaten lawsuits or urgent action. Never return the call or provide personal information. Block the number, report the incident to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection agency, and if you suspect identity theft, place a fraud alert with the credit bureaus. Verify any legitimate debt through official letters, not voicemail, and keep records of all interactions.
