Called my brother looking for me. Said they were from an arbitration firm. Called and left me a VM with a locally-s****ed number saying the same thing, though she said "arbitra-****ion" because I guess big words mystify her. They were using my former married name - I've been divorced and using my maiden name for 13 years, so obviously very stale debt (if it was ever even valid).
(813) 280-0715 - September 17th, 2024 7:57pm
Continued to call and leave messages about a "debt" I owed that will go to arbitration..used a prior last name I haven't had in 12years. She called a***n from an area code from my state. Claimed debt was from 2020 (before I even had that last name too), and claiming I never filed bankruptcy a few years ago. They also had my full social security number. SCAM, do not engage!
