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!

So mad, the same thing happened to me. I'll be moving in a month as well as changing my phone number but seriously STILL MAD

Jane from CRS is getting desperate... LOLTwo calls today exactly one minute apart.  Left two identical messages. These guys try to collect old stats barred debts that are WAY over the statute of limitations and are notorious for harrassing people for debts they don't owe. They have been harrassing me for over seven years.  The last time I actually talked to them i told them to send me a copy of the original contract I apparently signed for this debt.  They told me to send them a hand signed letter so they could "compare" the signatures from the letter and the " contract".  I told them they promised to send a copy of the contract seven years ago and I'm still waiting.  They can't produce it because they don't have it !!!!  Don't send these guys ANYTHING and don't answer their phone calls either.  They are rude, ignorant of the collection laws and once you communicate with them they will never let up.Number on call display shows as " unknown".

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

Very rude lady named Laura, calls saying my son owes money from years ago.....I give her my son's number and she gets very annoyed.  If I hang up, she calls back till I pick up.  Very harassing person.  Anyone know how to stop these early morning calls?

I got a call from 1-(780) 328-6135.  I picked it up and an automated voice was on the line.  It said it had a message for me, so I waited for 5 minutes of dead air space.  I was annoyed and hanged up after there was no response or message.  Truly very annoying.  After doing net research, found the number belonged to Crs Contact Resource Services.
