888-760-1382

sound like a creditor some one who stayed at our house used our number for a reference illegally

I also receive calls from this number frequently.  I wish I knew how to block it - very annoying.

you only receive those calls if you went to a hospital and then never paid your bills. they are the debt collector trying to collect on your medical debt.

I have received a few calls from this number over the past few days.  All that comes through on the voicemail is a brief snippet of a man's voice and I can't even understand what he's saying.

Called me first time today with a computer voice reporting they are CMRE (best guess - said so fast I can't be sure, and their client is Emergency Service Medical GROU and are trying to collect an unpaid debt.  Left the message on my answering machine that by continuing to listen to their message I am verifying my name is "xxx" and to call them back at this number and and refer to reference number "xxx."  I called them back and some woman answers, she's typing as fast as she can, insisting I verify my name and DOB.  I refused to verify anything, told her I have no debts, have proof of all bills being paid and checks satisfactorily cashed.  I insisted she verify who SHE was and that she is legitimate and if I find they aren't I'll see them in court...the line went dead.  Pretty well proof that these people are scammers.

These folks have tried an automated voicemail scam on my late mother's phone number.  What do I need to do to have them reported for using the phone system to scam honest people?

I got an automated voicemail message, too, offering debt settlement. I was curious since I don't know of any outstanding bills. When I called the 888 number, the person was asking me my social security number, my date of birth, my address to verify that it was me..Because I won't divulge the info, I told him to just send me the bill since apparently whoever I owe should know my address, right? He insisted under federal law he cannot give me information on my "supposed" debt. and debtor unless I give him all my personal information..

I do have a no calling list and ifg they keep on calling me i will report them

This number has been calling us too. Yeap, sounds like a scam to me. They also asked me for all my personal information to look up the information regarding a "debt." NEVER GIVE ANYONE YOU DIDN'T receive a bill from your personal information.

get calls saying to call 1-888-760-1382. they call from 1-888-760-1382 or from 213-261-0300 which are numbers for the same CMRE company. they keep leaving message asking for someone named Tony Jefferson. tried calling the 888 number but was on hold for 40 minutes before giving up. tried calling the 213 number and went straight through to a live person. told them that Tony Jefferson is not at my number, that don't know Tony Jefferson, and to not call my number again. hopefully that puts an end to these stupid calls.

Keep getting this call.  It's a bunch of jibberish and background noises.

CMRE Financial is a debt collection company, there direct phone number to a LIVE person is 714-528-3200.  When you call them, tell them you are glad the call is being recorded since the person they seem to be looking for does not live at this location and you are tired of the calls.  Do NOT give the first person you talk to ANY information.  They will connect you to a second person (who has CALLER ID, so already knows YOUR phone number).  Tell that person the SAME thing about being recorded and the person they are looking for does NOT live at this location.  They will remove YOUR phone number from the account.

I got a call from them as well. It said my insurance had not paid a certain amount afterall from a debt I paid off a year ago. They also had me verify my DOB. I told them that I payed off the hospital bill and that I would call to talk to them and my health insurance. The woman said, "They are only going to verify what I told you." I looked on Credit Karma to see if I had any accounts in collections and there were none. It felt fishy the whole time I was calling. I really hope they don't call me back.

If legitimate, repeated misdirected debt collection calls.  However, I’ve received multiple calls looking for various people (more than 5), none of whom are me.
