ACM Group, called trying to chase a family member, was not aware they were able to do that.

They call and call me I was stupid enough to near fall for it once I answered they asked for my date of birth and address , then say I owe money to them from 7 years ago they said and that if I don't pay now I'm going to be arrested I don't owe anyone and they are Indian accent , very rude people

definite scam do not answer

SMS sent saying:
Dear ..... please contact ACM-HEAD OFFICE as a matter of urgency
and quote ref ..... to prevent any further action.

Dear BIBI, no response to previous contact to avoid legal proceedings contact ACM NSW within 48 hours on (02) 9018 7667 and quote 5127267.Gave the number a call from a land line and they removed my number from their system in minutes. Lets hope I don't get any more otherwise I'm going to get pretty frustrated.

As Rob stated - this is form a Debt Collection Agency, Advanced Credit Management. I'm assuming people are giving them the wrong details so they can't be tracked down for their bad credit payments or something.If you call them on their toll-free number 1800 673 668 and tell them that you've been getting SMS's for someone they'll ask you for the ref number on the SMS (the QUOTE number, in my case 4052957) and they'll remove your number from the name it was attached to.

The replies in this thread are fake, ACM is a scam, no phone company sells their debt to another company and gives them the previous number. Ring what ever phone company your with and ask and they will tell you the same thing. Also do not ring them as they are simply fishing for information,The name they send you in the text is randomly selected, once they have your real name they use it in other phone based scams, from various call centers.

Keeps sending Txt threatening legal action if not replied to.

I got a new number, for a spare phone, and occasional I get this text message for the name Michael.Should I do the right thing and let them know, or just ignore them. I have received about 3 or 4. I also got a voicemail message, but since I got no credit with Vodaphone, and not planing to get any, I can't check it.
