I get harrassing phone calls every morning demanding I pay for a credit card debt I already settled with a different collection agency 3 years ago! I got tricked into giving my work number! I was told the "client" (credit card company) needed my work number as proof I am employed. I was told it would not be used to contact me in any way! It was a lie! My co-worker called me at home informing me a Holly Sommers from the Law Office of Laurence A. Hecker called looking for me. She gave my co-worker information about my situation. They asked me for my checking information because they said it was the only way to secure the "settlement" option. I informed them it was an account that had already been paid off, but she kept pushing that I had no proof of it! Stupid me, I gave my checking information! She assured me that the funds would not be taken out before the agreed date. She said I would receive a courtesy call on the date & I would have to consent to it. I never got the call! Luckily I pulled out the money from my checking account because next thing I know, I was being charged an NSF from my bank. I found out the company was trying to pull out the funds without a call giving my consent! They leave rude messages on my parents' answering machine as well as on my cell phone! They have called me at 2:41am, 3:22am, 7:16am when I informed them I live on Guam! They don't even take the time out to research the time difference!
These people need a major wake-up call! It's too much for me to handle!
