Caller: Credit Corp

Damned scammers

Debt collection agency attempting to recover money by blowing out the phones of third parties that may or may not know the subject of the alledged debt.

They attempt to call parents, siblings, cousins, neighbours, work colleagues, anyone even remotely associated with the subject or their lives in the hope they can get to them. What they do is illegal, and they can safely be ignored.

When a bad debt is passed onto a debt collector, the agency purchases the debt for 10 to 20 cents in the dollar and then attempt to collect the FULL amount from the original borrower (plus interest).

However, what most people are unaware of is that once the debt has been purchased by a third party , the debt has been expunged for the original borrower, and that is the end of the matter. The only signature from the borrower is on a contract between the bank/credit provider and the borrower. There is no signed contract between a debt collector and the original borrower.

Therefore, do not admit or agree to anything a debt collector says on the phone, as they will attempt to trick you into entering into a contract with them (if you're the original borrower they are after) and try to get you on a 'payment plan'.

The statute of limitations means they can only chase you for a maximum of five years, but if you admit to anything or enter into agreement with them (even verbally), then that resets and you can be harangued another five years or until you've satisfied the needs of these vultures.

Your best bet is to avoid them like the plague, legally they have no clout. All they have is intimidation tactics on the phone. Weak!
They are legally only allowed to call 3 times a week or 12 in a month, but that is IF YOU ANSWER. so answer the call & just hang up & they won't be able to call again.

Caller: Spam

Never leave message any numbers not in my phone no longer get an answer

the guy I spoke with said this number (03) 5202 4185 is a company switchboard

Someone is using these numbers as a way to get money out of people. I was asked to send the money to an offshore account to settle a debt and was enquiring why I could not do a local transfer. Also they seemed to have a lot of info on me including my Medicare card number and a GP visit a year ago.

I rang back. Got someone named Samantha who said she worked for a legit business but would not tell me who the business was...Had this call before and they just dont answer or go to voicemail...I think Sam is a scam although she did say she would take my number off the list......lets wait and see if thats true!!!!

I rang once and got disconnected
