keep getting voicemails, who are they?

They called my house this morning saying they couldnt give me information in regards about what they were calling about until i gave them my date of birth and other b.s. and that the call was recorded. They said there company was called mbroi and i dont see the number that came up on my caller id that the same for there number listed.

They are debt collectors out of Worcester, MA I asked them what did MBROI stand for.  He said that is the name of the company,I also asked if he was a debt collector.  He would not  give any information.  
Hope this helps.  His name was Lewis.

Yeap, they called my house several times leaving messages for sombody I do not know. It seems to be debt collectors out of Worcester, MA - MBROI is the name of their company (could not get from them what it stands for). Also, they would not answer any of my questions regarding the nature of their business...  that is a BIG RED flag. Well, it must be one of those businesses you do not want to deal with especially over the phone. For your own good do not provide them with any personal information of any kind. They do not seem to have anything to offer to help anyone except themselves.

I am getting Voicemails as well. I googled "Worcester, MA  MBROI" and came up with a bunch of jobs they posted online:

"MBROI, a progressive healthcare revenue cycle management company, has an immediate full time opening..." etc


Sounds like collections to me but "progressive healthcare revenue cycle management" has a nicer ring to it I guess :D

Also, if they are totally legit - why don't they have a website and why would they not provide information when asked? Very odd. I won't be giving them my information.

Oh, also came up with this (their name) found on a job site:

Medical Bureau of Economics (MBROI)  -  Worcester, MA
Due to company growth, exciting opportunity for customer service representatives to work in our office located in Worcester, MA. Representatives confer with patients by phone to assist in resolving unpaid healthcare accounts (first and third party) - identifying reason for non payment. Responsibilities may include verifying insurance information with patient, adding/revising demographics, assistin...

they are debt collectors, called me wanting info on my 15 year old daughter..she has no debt! Wouldnt talk to me unless I gave them her ssn...I am her mother, I am responsible for her medical bills! No way in hell am I giving my daughters information to a stranger who will not tell me what they are calling for! Refused to talk to me unless I gave them her info..needless to say, I hung up!

MBROI---called my cell phone this morning and requested all sorts of personal information---dob,ss#,address----would not provide any information regarding the alleged debt. I was told that MBROI coud not divulge any information regarding the nature of their call under Federal law until I provided all my personal information over the phone. I requested something in writing. The caller provided me with the 800  number suggesting that I could call that number to verify the company and the reason for calling......

I called them and spoke with Zack at ext. 5215 and he cut the bill by 35%. He had to go to the "manager" 3 times but

Got a call they asked to confirm my birthdate, address, and SSN by me telling them what the information was. They said they were related to some hospital.

What a joke!

I have no idea why they called.

Wants to know who is handeling my mothers affairs.

Caller said they were attempting to collect a debt. Wouldn't ID themselves by personal or company name or what debt they were trying to collect. Kept asking me to provide personal information to verify my identity before they would release any info. - I refused saying I don't owe anyone and if they were legit, then they had my info already, and I again asked what debt they were trying to collect.  -- I was told they needed to verify that I was (so & so).. Told them I was and asked what they wanted (again).. When asked to provide my D.O.B. & SS#, I hung up. -- they've called back and left several messages. - When calling back, I get the message.. "TY for calling the business office"..but it doesn't say who's business office.

The FDCPA states that we cannot discuss the details or purpose of our call unless we are able to verify that we are speaking with the person responsible for the debt. With MBROI, they are medical debts and therefore we are required to adhere to the HIPAA laws protecting medical privacy. I understand it is frustrating but we are required to verify date of birth and at least the  last 4 of the social security number on file. MBROI does in fact send letters sometimes 3-4 but like most people you most likely threw them away or disregarded them as junk mail. Hopefully this helps those that are willing to use the internet to post complaints but not to enlighten themselves or perhaps. "pay there bills"

Update-
 This is a medical collection agency. I grabbed the only medical bill I have out of the drawer and turned it over to check the address and phone number, same thing. St. Joseph health services of RI uses them. (lab work etc)

They called me today and I never answer these numbers due to it's randomness. If I'm not associated by any means, I would never pick up the phone. Everyone should do the same.

Sure, they're a medical bill collecting agency, but I have no medical records or any recent visits that would give them any means to call me. Never pick up the phone and talk to strangers unless associated somewhat!

"Pay there bills" THEIR!! Dumba$$   Looks like someone needs to go back to school and then maybe you wouldn't be stuck doing debt collection.

Clearly you are a scammer.  Your rules make no sense.

Due to hippa laws no information can be realeased , its pt privacy! You would think people would want that rather than to have any john doe be able to access your information, all the info asked is provided infront of them, they have to verify and that is because they are doing their jobs! Everyone is so angry when things get sent to collections, talk to the people willing to help resolve the issue!

NAME AND NUMBER - NO COMPANY NAME
