800-219-7425

Missed call, no name. Did not leave message. Called back, got message that said number is not in service.

Missed call + no name. They didn't leave me a message either. I didn't call back, but I'm going to call back now.

I just called back, this recording said that the number is not available. I was called at 10:43AM on Dec. 17, 2008.

I was called at 3pm on Dec. 17, 2008 for the third time.  I missed the 1st call, answered the 2nd and asked to be removed from the list when I spoke to a 'representative'.  That was around 8pm last night.  I answered the 3rd call, and  pressed 1 to speak to a 'representative' again, but the line rang for 2 minutes with no answer.  I hung up and tried to call back, but an automated message said the number was not in service.

number being used by car warranty scam - keep trying to get a callback number or get someone to give me the name of the company. number dead if you try to call it back

receiving these calls since I got T-mobile. Are they selling numbers to the calling lists?

PEOPLE. PEASE READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE POSTING!!!

YOU MAY WONDER WHO IS CALLING YOU.

IT IS NOT A PERSON. IT IS A KNOWN SCAM COMPANY CALLED "VP MARKETING" ALSO KNOWN AS "VERSADEBT."

THEY HIDE THEIR TRACKS BY SPOOFING SOME VICTIM'S PHONE NUMBER ON A CALLER ID.

Important message to all those that have received a call from this number:

The company making this call with an auto dialer is a known scam outfit. They spoofed phone numbers of victims all the time. Sometimes, they spoof non-working phone numbers. The phone number 800-219-7425 is just another victim of these scumbags. I've done a lot of research of this company. Actually, there are several affiliated companies, owned by the same people that try to scam innocent victims. One scam is about auto warranties. The other is about credit card debt relief. Their MO is the same. The use an auto dialer, and call thousands of random numbers. They have no regard to the do not call lists. Your demands or complaints are worthless. They will continue to call you.

They will not remove you from their call lists. Why? BECAUSE THEY DO NOT MAINTAIN ANY. THEY ARE CROOKS. THEY HAVE NO REGARD TO THE MANY LAWS THEY BREAK.

If they call about a car warranty, the message says something as "This is the second notice on your extended vehicle warranty. Press one now to speak to a representative..." The message about credit debt mentions "This is Account Services. We are calling to lower your credit card debt. Press one now to speak to a representative..."

Here are the details of these do***ebags:

Car Warranty Scam (two potential addresses):
VP Marketing
4501 Circle 75 Parkway
Suite #A-1225
Atlanta GA 30339

They also show a new address in their help wanted ads:
1820 Water Place Pkwy
Ste 255
Atlanta GA 30339
678-741-3188
678-741-3189


Credit Card Scam:
Versadebt Corp.
4501 Circle 75 Parkway
Suite #A-1225
Atlanta GA 30339
678-238-1300
678-238-1349
678-238-1351

Both companies are listed with the Georgia Department of State. Here is how you can lookup their information:
http://corp.sos.state.ga.us/corp/soskb/CSearch.asp

You will find that the "Registered Agent" for VP Marketing is Kelly Lonas, 224 Ripple Creek Drive, Marietta GA 30060. The listed "Member/Manager" is James A. Schoenholz at the 4501 Circle 75 Parkway address.

Versadebt's Registered Agent is the same James A. Schoenholz at the 4501 Circle 75 Parkway address. There is one additional name listed for Versadebt. The listed CEO, CFO, and Secretary is named Marvin Cox, Jr. at the same address.

In fact, Marvin Cox may be the owner of all of these related companies.

Here are some links to prove my research:
Job listings for VP Marketing:
http://www.careerbuilder.com/JobSeeker/Jobs/J ... p_marketing"_at

Notice the job listings for "Appointment Setter," "Qualification Representative," "Auto Warranty Specialist," and "Financial Representatives." Those are the idiots you get on the phone when you press "1" to speak to a representative after receiving their ILLEGAL recorded phone calls. Also, you can see many other job listings with similar titles.

Interestingly, if you view these help wanted ads, you will notice that their address and phone number are different from what is listed with the Georgia Department of State. They now list 678-741-3188  and 678-741-3189 as the phone number of Human Resources. IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL TO CALL THEM AS THEY LISTED THEIR NUMBER IN A PUBLIC FORUM. Call them to find out more information about this company. You will need this in your complaints to the FCC, FTC, and your state Attorney General.

You can call them to see if they offer Car Warranties or tell them you are interested in a lower interest rate. It is quite humorous to listen to their answers!

Here are some details from RipOff Report. Pay particular attention to these as ex employees detail how they operate and how their scam works:

You can learn much more about these do***ebags by performing a web search for "versadebt," and "vp marketing," or "heather from account services."

NOW, WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT THIS? You have two solutions:
1) Speak to one of their customer service representatives. Pretend to be interested in either lowering your credit card interest rate or a car warranty. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY REAL INFORMATION. Give them a fake credit card number, a fake name, and a fake SS#. Tell them you own a Ferrari, or a 1937 Dodge (however, if you really own one of those two, tell them you own a Buick). Give a made up VIN number. If they ask for your name and phone number, give them the info for the person you hate the most.

Your goal is simple. Keep them on the phone for as long as possible. Be friendly. Your goal is twofold. You want to learn as much as possible about them. They will refuse to give you a website, phone number, or maybe even a real company name. They will attempt to give you a generic name such as "Account Services," "Financial Services," or "Dealer Services." This is done for a reason, to throw you and the government off their tracks. Do not accept this. Keep pressing for info. You will need this (see below).

EVEN BETTER IS IF YOU CAN RECORD THE CALL.

Also, the time you take from them means them have less time to steal from someone who is unknowledgeable about their scams. They get paid to rip people off. Take away their time, and they make no money! I have kept them on the phone for up to 20 minutes! I realize that many of you do not have the time? But do you appreciate being taken advantage of?

Ever hear of Scambaiting? That is what you are doing!!! There are many entertaining web sites on this topic. For example, see:

2) YOU MUST REPORT THEM TO THE AUTHORITIES:

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION!
Here is the link to file a complaint: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION:
https://donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx

You must also file a report with the Attorney General of your state. See the last link below to see how effective this can be.

I file complaints against Versadebt and VP Marketing every time I receive a call. If everyone that received a call from these low-life scumbags does the same, then the combined action of thousands of us can stop these crooks from scamming innocent people out of money. You may also try to write your congress person.

called twice on my cell no name on caller id except for 800-219-7425

How to reduce the inconvenience of these calls on some phones:

To those who have a phone with the capability of creating/selecting your own ring-tones, you can minimize the inconvenience of these repeating spam calls...

Set up these phone numbers in your phone book. Then associate either a distinctive ring-tone with each number, one that does NOT play for any legitimate incoming call. Alternatively, you can make your own ring-tone that consists of NO noise...a silent ring-tone as it were.

This way when a call comes from one of these spam numbers, either the distinctive ring-tone plays and you know to ignore the call, or if you set up a "silent" ring-tone, you aren't even bothered when these repeat calls come in...in effect, your phone doesn't "ring".

In my case I created an mp3 file that consisted of complete silence and assigned each of these scam phone numbers to that mp3 file as the ring-tone for those numbers. So now when they call my phone, the display turns on and displays the callerID info (although we already know it's spoofed), but I'm not bothered with any "ringing". So if the phone is in my pocket, I don't even know a call came in and it doesn't interrupt anything I might be doing.

It's not quite the same as "call blocking" but it's the next best thing.
Note: you may have to change the numbers from time to time as these companies may have multiple "spoof" callerID phone numbers, or may change them from time to time. There is an easily obtained electronic device that lets a caller create fake callerID info and that is probably what these companies are using. For example, using this callerID spoofing device they could make an incoming phone call show up in your phone display as actually coming from YOUR own phone if they wanted to. Evil people.

Good luck!

Got a call from this number a few days ago but didn't answer it.  Thanks for the info, now I know it is a scam.

It's a recorded message regarding a car warranty renewal.

"Vehicle warranty has expired." Pressed opt 1 to speak with a rep. Individual identifying himself as Anthony came on the line. When I asked what vehicle he was calling about he immediately terminated the call. Received calls from this number a few other times as well: (800-219-7425) Filed a complaint with the FCC.

Stupid car warranty people again....
SECOND TIME IN UNDER 3 MINUTES! They called from 412-207-6629 before!
I pressed 1 to speak with an operator

Operator: Hi, would you like more information about extending your automotive warranty today, sir?
Me: I have 23 1985 Yugos that I use for pizza delivery, which one is out of warranty?
Operator: ...I'm sorry, can you repeat that, sir?
Me: I have 23 1985 Yugos that I use for pizza delivery, which one is out of warranty?
Operator: ...This call was made in error sir, we'll add your number to the do not call list. ::click::

Received many calls from this number. I don't answer. Fuuny thing on the last call. While ringing it showed in the window as 608-219-7425. When I checked my received call log it showed as 800-219-7425. Wonder if they are the same????
Aggrevating as hell anyhow!

Third call with a 'final warning on my car warranty' this week.  I don't even own a car.  Pressing #1 generated no useful information other than the guy who answered said he worked in a call center in Atlanta, GA.

This was an automated message saying that my car warranty has expired and that I need to call them to re-instate it.
Since I don't have a car warrantee I'd like to know WHERE they got my number?
This is the THIRD time they have called and the number that shows up on the caller ID is not valid.
I hope someone can shut these jerks down soon!

this number called me, only silence on the other end, second call from this number
