If you get a call from +18002976901 that claims you owe a debt, stay calm and don’t share personal details. The callers often refuse to name the original creditor and push for your address, birthdate, or SSN. Hang up, block the number, and search the name “United Collection Bureau” online—most reports label it as a debt‑collector scam. If you truly suspect a legitimate debt, request a written validation letter before you talk to anyone. Keep a log of call times, what was said, and report the number to the FTC or your state’s consumer protection agency.

The caller was asking for personal information about the homeowner, who is in his 80s, they wanted his last 4 digits of his ss number and said he had to pay a debt, fortunately his care taker was there
Repeated calls have been made to my 82-year-old husband, resulting in prolonged hold times, leaving us wondering about the purpose of these calls.
United Collection Bureau contacted me regarding a debt, but I'm certain I dont have any outstanding debt, so I didnt provide them with my birthdate or social secuity number.
The caller had access to my medical bill information but requested an incorrect amount for debt collection
When they called, an automated voice was saying somthing about lowering my credit card intrest rates, but I know my credit card companys dont do this, so I proceded with causion and hung up.
A response of welcome was given, possibly in appreciation or acknowledgement.
The information provided was excellent, thank you.
Today, I received an unfamiliar call from this number, which I chose not to answer due to the unknown caller ID.
Since the beginning of the month, this number has been calling nonstop. Each time I answer, the representative asks to verify my address to proceed with a claim against me. After refusing to provide the information, they offer an alternative number to contact a 'firm.' However, the number provided claims to be an investigations unit and instructs the caller to hang up. It is clear that this is a scam, and caution is advised.
This number is asociated with UNITED COLLECTION BUREAU, also known as UCB
According to federal law, specifically the FDCPA, debt collectors are required to send a letter within five days of initial contact, detailing their name, address, the creditor's name, and the debt amount, as well as notifying the recipient of their right to dispute the debt within 30 days
The call was from United Collection Bureau regarding a debt collection, but they refused to provide further details without first verifying personal information, to which I requested all future communication be via mail.
Despite claiming to be a collection agency, all indications point to it being a scam.
I also recieved a call from this number, the person was asking me to verify my personal informations, but I refussed and hung up on him
Following a call from this number, I discovered a voicemail from United Collections regarding medical collections for my son, which explains the purpose of their calls.
This morning, a lady called and immediatly asked for my birthdate, adress, and last 4 digit of my social secirity number, I asked her where she was calling from but she didnt want to tell me untill I gave her the informations, so I just hung up.
Over the past week, numerous calls have been recieved from this number, followed by a recording and a disconnection.
Accordint to other websites, this number is posible spam, so I will be carefull
