Unexpectedly, these calls emerge as relentless harassment, often cloaked in vague business pretenses while pushing debt‑collection scripts. Callers rarely identify themselves, press for personal details, and hang up if you push back. Never share Social Security numbers, banking info, or passwords over the phone. Request written verification of any alleged debt and keep a log of dates, times, and exact wording. Register your number with the National Do Not Call Registry, use a reputable call blocker app, and add the offending area code to a personal block list. If the calls persist, file a complaint with the FTC and consider reporting to local law enforcement for potential fraud.

The caller claimed to be from a credit collection agency for an account I don't have; I have no debts, I'm a senior on a fixed income, and there's no such entry on my credit report.
Pure spam, like a bowl of spaghetti—just junk, lol.

The caller seemed to be searching for information related to a foreign individual's name.
Despite numerous requests to cease calls, this number continues to contact me, requesting my social security number for verification purposes, which is alarming given its presence on the National Do Not Call List
A debt collection letter must include a 'mini-Miranda' statement, notifying the recipient that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for that purpose. The letter should also inform the recipient of their right to dispute the debt within 30 days and that collection activity must cease until the debt is verified.
When I was contacted by these indivijuals, they didnt leave a mesage, and when I asked about their website, they didnt respond, they were trying to obtain my personal informations, claiming to be a legetimate collection agency.
I chose not to answer the call and am sending a formal request to cease all contact, as permitted under federal law, which stipulates that upon receipt of such a request, no further communication is allowed except to confirm the termination of collection efforts.
The person on the phone spoke rapidly, making it challenging to understand the conversation. With no apparent foreign accent, the issue seemed to be a pronunciation problem. They asked to speak with my husband, who is currently in the hospital undergoing a triple bypass. I answered the phone, thinking it might be related to the hospital, but based on the comments here, I believe it was a scam call. I hope they move on to the next target and leave me alone during this difficult time.
The caller claimed to be a credit collection service, but when i asked for more informatioin, they became evasive, asking me to confirm my personal details first, which i refused to do

The number calls excessively, up to 10 times a day, without disclosing the reason for the call. The caller, Steve, requested verification of identity before revealing the purpose of the call, which was declined. The calls continue, causing harassment.
I was jarred awake by a call that hung up as soon as I answred, it was infuriating, especailly since I had just started sleaping well after a long night of work, the constant calls about warrantys and rebates are absolutly annoying

What constitutes a "black voice"?
Despite being informed that the person they are trying to reach is not available, the caller persists in making calls
The caller claimed it was regarding a 'personal business matter' but refused to provide more information. It seems they are targeting the elderly to extort money.
Apparently, these scammers rely on outdated phone databases, consistently inquiring about individuals associated with numbers that have not been active for many years, which is a clear indication of a total scam.
