Watch out for spoofed debt‑collection texts that claim you owe a past‑due medical bill and threaten legal action. Callers often use your maiden name and exact employment details to appear legitimate, then pressure you to hand over a credit‑card or bank information. Never provide payment details to an unsolicited caller and do not call the number back. Instead, locate the original creditor’s official contact info on a bill or the company’s website, and verify the claim. Block the offending number, report the incident to the FTC and your state’s consumer protection agency, and consider a credit freeze if you suspect identity theft. Staying skeptical and confirming sources can stop scammers dead in their tracks.
Had you taken the time to read the original post, you would have seen this information.
I have received multiple scam texts regarding a past due account, with instructions to contact a different number to avoid penalties.
It's obvious they got the informations from the internet, thats where everybody get they're informations nowadays
If somone ask for money over phone, its a scam, I block all numbers and dont allow voicemails, my info is not even accurate so I know its a scam
The caller claims that my account is overdue and threatens legal action if I fail to comply.
Thank you for providing the company name, which appears to be a suspicious organization based in North Carolina.
It's possible they obtained all that information by simply searching for your name online, where it's freely available
My experience mirrors that of others, with the notable exception that both my wife's and my phone numbers were targeted, suggesting a potential dark web scam or compromised database.
I got a text message, when I replied STOP, they sent me a message saying I opted out, but googling them showed alot of scam warnings
Three identical calls were made from this number, all requesting credit card information.
Paying a stranger over the phone is insanly creepy, especialy in todays world
I received two texts warning of a pending lawsuit and demanding that I call them, using my maiden name and referencing my old employer and local hospital, but the woman on the phone demanded I provide payment information, which I refused to do.
I recieved the same supiscious text as you, and I'm prety sure it's a scam, I was geting worried
I recieved a text saying my acct is overdue, it was stressing me out, but i think it's a scam, they ask to call 877-764-3646
I just recieved a text saying my account is overdue and i need to call 877-764-3646 or reply STOP to opt-out, which look like a scam
They had returned my call with 2 text, addressing me by wrong name, they was claimed to be law firm trying to debt collect for a medical bill from 2013.. they did had info correct but want to get my payment immediatly
