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!

Have received a few calls from (780) 328-6135 and also (604) 678-5888. Leaving a message for someone we've never heard of advising that action will be taken if we do not call "Laura" from Contact Resource Services and giving a reference number and alluding to a letter we've never seen nor do we know what this is even about. Weird.  All messages say to call 1.+1 888-771-5803 - I tried calling once but was on hold for awhile so I hung up.

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 #.

I am getting calls 2-3 times a week at my work from (780) 328-6135. I know they are calling regarding an OLD Canadian Tire MasterCard from 16yrs ago. Since then I have bought a house/car and good credit. Plus it doesn't even show up on my credit bureau. Honestly I have no intentions of paying them. Does anyone know how to get them to stop calling my work?

Second call this week from (780) 328-6135 - automated voice says they are calling from Contact Resource Services and they sent out some mail to me stating that I have a very important offer please call them back right away.  Have been dealing with these scum for years now regarding a debt they say I owe for an item I never purchased from a store I have never purchased from - this is now year 11!!  Have tried every channel to force them to stop contacting me and I am at my wits end.  Anyone have any suggestions... or is it time for legal action??

why call me then an answer machine talks no company name or anything shows up just a number

It doesn't matter if you move, they will still find you.  CRS will find you anywhere - trust me.  I had a bad debt to Citibank Visa and in the recession of 91-92 my business tanked and I should have just filed for bankruptcy but I didn't.  My file was sent first to a lawyer and then several different credit collection companies.  And then after a few years nothing happened, until this year.  They found me,  I have no idea how, but they did.  Called my home phone, which is in my daughter's name. and then they called my cell phone.  And then they sent mail to my last employers office.  So if you don't want to be found don't open a bank account, have a phone, etc.  You get the picture.  The guy that I used to work for invests in those companies that buy up bad debt for cents on the dollare and therefore have nothing to lose and everything to gain.  I've seen the numbers.  They are like Hitler on the warpath to wealth.
