They also contracted to a company in Victoria who does Government Research on Food Banks, they have someone inside passing any relevant information on. Another tactic is to phone pretending to be Microsoft and telling you that there is a problem with your Windows Software, they then try and convince you to give access to your computer and lock it holding it hostage until you pay them. Don't think they use this one anymore though as it is criminal and usually doesn't work, read a few people got stung. More proof linux is better anyway.

I got called from this unknown number many times...this is part of spam and I called back saying voicemail is full.....wasting my time!

Not true.....yes it is illegal for lenders to use debts more than 6 years old against you which is why debts are removed from your credit after a 6 year period. Statute of limitations does not mean debts aren't collectable it simply means that no legal action can be taken against you from that point. The exception to this rule would be if you acknowledge the debt by either sending them some sort of written acknowledgment or more simply by making a payment. If you do this you reset the statute of limitations regardless of how old the debt is.

harrassing phone call who can help me to locate there address
nibbles74 @ hotmail.com ATTconcerning CRS

They called our home yesterday with what I guess is a new scam - said the had returned mail for "Mike" and for us to call the 877 # and give them a tracking # of ...... - when I called to say there was no Mike here the call was answered by a robot who said Thank you for calling the message centre and then the line was silent - no one ever came on the line.  They just called me back this morning and only asked for Mike and if we knew Mike.  Said we did not and she said thanks and goodbye.  I guess time will tell if we get any more calls.

Message on machine said it was Lisa from CRS (Contact Resource Services??). I accidentally hit erase instead of stop at that point, so didn't get a call back #.

ggggg

Thanks this number just called me,Glad I did not answer it. There was no msg left.
