Ever wonder why that unknown number keeps buzzing your line? Many recipients report relentless calls from a debt‑collection outfit that identifies itself as NCO Financial, often leaving Spanish‑language voicemails or silent beeps. The calls usually claim you owe a debt you’ve never heard of, and they may cite a “confirmation number” to sound legitimate. Under the TCPA you can request written validation, place the number on the Do Not Call list, and report violations to the FTC or your state attorney general. Block the caller on your handset, keep logs of each call, and consider a small claims suit for the statutory $500 per illegal call if harassment continues.
What constiutes last activity on an acccount, is it the last payment made or the last time contact was made??
Initially, payments were made, but now it seems likely that the calls are part of a scam.
Over three days, I was bombarded with 230 calls and 30 text messages from this number, despite informing them of my work schedule, and their threats to contact my references and workplace have caused me significant distress.
Two calls were received from this number, but no message was left. It's suspicious that they called a secondary number used only for online sales, rather than my primary number, which would be expected if it were a legitimate debt collector.
I've been getting consistant calls from this number on my cell phone, which led me to investigate and discover it may be a scam call. As a result, I've taken to ignoring calls from unrecognised telephone numbers.
After returning the call, I was placed on hold and decided to hang up.
Debt collection company calling relentlessly. Rude and pushy.
Two calls were made, purportedly from Capital One, but the callers were rude and pushy, displaying typical traits of scammers, and it was known that the real Capital One was already being dealt with through a different company.
It's advisable to take legal action against them, as outlined in a previous detailed message that describes the legitimacy of the claim, including a notable case involving a significant settlement
It seems like the Troll is responding to a post that is almost 9 yrs old...
Following a consumer proposal due to work injury and job loss, this number continues to call multiple times daily, both at home and on a cell phone, without leaving messages.
Repeatedly, I've been having issues with these calls
My landline get call from this number alot, like several time a day, 6 day a week, i have it block so it dont ring, but i still see it on my call display, it must be some computer dialing it, been going on for a year now
The frequency of calls from this number is excessive and frustrating.
Highly frustrated with the caller's behavior
If i could go back in time, i would not have ansered that unknown call, now i know the name and number, my advvice is to unplug all ansering devices, dont let them get your atention
Desde hace unas semanas, he estado recibiendo llamadas de estos individuos, pero trabajo en un área sin servicio de celular, por lo que dejo que salten al correo de voz, el cual es completamente silencioso, así que los bloquee y veré cómo funciona
Harassment from debt collection companies can be overwhelming, and changing one's number is not a viable solution.
I just got a call from this number on my mobile phone, but they didnt leave a message, so I blocked them.
I also received a call with a computer-generated voice, speaking perfect English and providing a reference number, which appeared to be spam.
A call was received at my home, and a message was left, requesting that I return the call and providing a confirmation number, which seems like a potential scam tactic.
I had the same experiance
For over three months, I have been receiving calls from this number, despite the fact that the intended recipients do not reside at my address.
Dealing with these people has been ongoing, and despite numerous requests to remove the number from their list, they continue to call, which may warrant legal action.
I receive calls from this number on my cell phone, supposedly from a collection agency like NCO, despite having no debts; I'm unsure how to stop these harassing calls.
Despite being on the Do Not Call Registry and having no debts or affiliation with NCO, I continue to receive these disturbing calls multiple times daily.
Frequentley recieving this call several times a day, part of the message is cut off, but it says call Octavio Soto, I dont no what debt they could be refering too.
If you dont like it, then change your number, why are you wasting our time with this blog, noboddy cares
Our household receives daily calls from this number, initially from a Spanish-speaking woman, and when I explained that I only speak English, she replied with a polite 'gracias' before hanging up; subsequent calls have been asking for a 'Jose', which is not a name associated with our household, leading me to suspect that the previous owner of our phone number may have been targeted by a debt collection company.
