Got calls serveral times. Always one ring no msg left then ***g up. I called back. It said thank you for calling erc automatic answer. The agent said I own AT&T 100+ dollar on 2011. I asked him to sent me a paper statesment. He argued they already sent me two letters, needed to pay with a credit card. But it just wrong name with the phone number AND wrong address on 2011. Be attention, they will have your last four digits of your social security number.

Keep getting a call from this number, don't answer but looked it up and its ERC a recovery collection scam one the site it states...Protected by the DNC. You may not call this number for telemarketing purposes. Well, wheres my protection from them? Maybe everyone should call them and **** up and maybe they wouldn't be able to get an open line to call anyone to scam them. Block your number before calling.
