Called my phone saying they were at my home trying to serve me a lawsuit. Gave me a phone number and case number to call Safeway Recovery Group.
I called and was threatened to give a bank account number or credit card number to pay $5000 on an old credit card from 2009 that was confirmed by the bank and N.C.O. that the $160.00 remaining unpaid balance was written off years ago and it's not showing on all credit reporting. He then said he would lower it to $1500.
I asked for written documents and verifcation he started name calling and threatening to have me arrested, garnish my wages, or stop my checking account. He said he would send me an email with the writen information, I waiting for 30 min to finally recieves a bogus mocked up no information docu sign stating I would pay him over the phone. I deleted the email and hung up the phone.
This scammer called my husband saying they were the debt collector in a lawsuit on behalf of US Bank and that they would basically ruin us financially over a 12 year old bounced check in the amount of $30.00. They told us we owed something in the ballpark of $5000.00 which would result in our bank account being frozen and his paycheck being garnished 25% until we were payed up... Unless that is we started payment immediately, in which case they would drop the amount to a kind and generous $1900.00.
My husband went into the bank to speak to them directly because none of what they said made any sense or e even was legal according to the best of our knowledge, to have our suspicions confirmed by the banks fraud Department. Sharing this story in the hopes of providing exposure to these people's dispicable attempt to scam a single income family with young children.
