Somehow these idiots got my cell #, I don't know how they got MY number to ask me for someone I don't know in some freakish sounding mechanical voice.  Only 2 businesses have my cell number and they are none that would have any connection to a (fake sounding) collection agency.  I'll be calling them tomorrow and telling them to remove my number from their call list or I'll be chasing them down with a threat to sue for harrassment.

They can't collect on old debt that has passed the statute of limitations, DO NOT MAKE ANY PAYMENTS, if you do they can't screw your credit for 6 years.  Just ignore those calls, let them waste their money coming after you when they don't have a legal leg to stand on!

got a call from this number voicemail just said "will be with you in a minute" and that was it. a prerecorded voice

Oslo? Norway? Financial powerhouse that it is....seriously???This clearly isn't ING although they are vainly trying to create the multi-national facade.They won't last long at this rate....any dimwit can tell you that simply PLACING many phone calls does not yield many dollars...staff and office space cost money.As such, collections agencies come and go like ticks on a dog's a***. (In this analogy, the debtor would be the dog and the collector the a***-sucker).By necessity they change names and phone numbers frequently. It is the only means by which to maintain commercial viability. The more frequently the debtor can identify the collector, the less effective the cat-and-mouse game becomes.It seems to me that even "unknown" and "spoofed" phone numbers have also become rather ineffective ploys. A lot of people simply rely on voicemail and number familiarity as opposed to answering their phone because it happened to ring.Maybe you guys should move into the current millenium and try something on social networking...you know...."out" them....Given that these networks are ultimately used to stroke people's egos and tailor images, it would be a pretty effective way to garner your desired response. Nothing quite destroys a public image like financial issues...except maybe sexual issues...

again...why do Aktiv Kapital keep on changing #'s???? Gggeeezzzz.... I wonder how many #'s they have and how much money they're spending every month to have all the #'s they have.... And they're pressuring people to pay their debts.... oh boy........ that's life I guess...
