Interesting if it is related to the red light cameras, I received two different red light tickets and I defeated them both and got them dismissed.  In the first one, I obtained a higher quality version of the video and stepped through it frame by frame, and showed that the light was green, when I turned.  The police officer who signed it under penalty of perjury obviously just rubber stamped the red light company's tickets knowing that he would never be prosecuted.  The second ticket, I had filed discovery motions with the city's office, and when the "judge" (not really just some contract attorney) saw the city had not responded, he dismissed the ticket.

If these end up appearing on my credit reports, I am going to hold the city responsible.

Received the same phone call for three days now, my husband told me right away it was a scam but had to find out for myself, so I too called the city of albuquerque out of curiosity and sure enough they never called me and I have no outstanding tickets on my record. Definately a BIG SCAM!!!!!

GOT A CALL FROM THIS NUMBER. WHO IS IT?

Hope this helps.  I had a lot of problems.  However I was able to get this issue resolved.  
Good luck

My parents were receiving phone calls for me at their house.  They live in El Paso and I live in Albuquerque.  As I was reading everyone’s response, I was also skeptical and was thinking it was a scam, but it is not a scam.  I also read and watched a video from Channel 7 KOAT News (http://www.koat.com/news/Company-placing-phon ... wz/-/index.html), which verified who they were a little bit more.  I called the 1-877-444-3343 number. I said I received a phone call from them and was calling back to find out information.  He started looking me without me giving him information.  He said he was looking for a Richard someone, which was not me.  So I started to think, it is a scam.  What he was doing was using the number I was calling from, which was my work number.   He then asked for the number that received the messages and so I gave him that phone number (my parent’s El Paso number).  He then said I had 3 outstanding citations in the City of Albuquerque.  He was not too good with giving me information, so I kept on asking questions.  Who, where, what, when.  He was able to give me the location of the citation, date, total amount for all of the citations (not each), a citation number & license plate number.  I told him that I did not receive any citation in the mail and if they could send me a copy or is there a place to view the citation.  There is a website to view the citation – photos & videos (depending if they took video, they had 1 video for me).  Here is the website:  www.photonotice.com .  You will need the Citation Number; License Plate Number; and the City Code (which is ABQ).  I was able to see my old vehicle, photos, videos & locations that were legit.  He mentioned that I had to pay by the end of the month (May).  I did not ask what if I did not pay.  I am assuming it just might go to legal actions and/or debt agencies.  He did mention that when I called back they might give me a payment discount or I can set-up a payment plan.  The only weird thing is the amount he gave me over the phone versus what the website said.  He gave me a total amount.  On the Photo Notice website, you are able to pay for each citation with a $3.95 fee on each citation.  The total of all 3 citations with the fee added was still $48.15 less than the total he told me over the phone.  So we will see what will happen the next time I call.

It was REDFLEX, the company that owned the Red Light, Speeding Cameras in Albuquerque.  2 of the citations were not at lights, they were on streets & Interstate (I-40) that were being checked for speeding.

It's legit, you may not realize it until they send you to https://www.photonotice.com. My citation was 8 years old, never received the mail on it and they city never attempted to collect on it until now. The statute of limitations for collections in the city of Albuquerque is 4 years, so in certain situations you can dispute the collection. These citations do not show up under law enforcement, so calling the city may give you a false negative. You won't get a warrant for not paying these tickets, but it can destroy your credit if you let it go too long.

I got a call from this # and I called it back.  They said my name right away when they answered.  They said it was a call from the City of Albuquerque regarding a red light citation when they had the  red light cameras.  I don't know.  he said they sent me information in the mail but I never received it.  I don't know if I should pay them.  They charged me $100.00.  They told me to go the frotonotice.com to see me on camera!!

I am 100% it's legit, google City of Albuquerque, go to their website and search the site for red light citations. The number that comes up to call for payment is 877-444-3343. If you go to the site https://www.photonotice.com/ and put in the information they give you, you will see the violation.

Received a call from someone stating I had several speeding tickets and to make a payment over the phone immediately. After several challenging questions, they hunn't this illegal?

This is the number that called me saying I had several speeding tickets that need to be paid immediately.

It is NOT legit!  You are being scammed, but so be it.  

I received a call on my cell phone with an area code from OHIO where I used to live (NOT in NM).   So I returned the call using my work phone from my current state of OREGON (still NOT in NM).  

Here's how our call went:
ME:  Hi, (I didn't give my name) I'm returning a call I received, and he asked what number I had received on my cell number.  
HIM:  Are you calling from (XXX) XXX-XXXX (my work number in Oregon).  (I hear keyboard typing in the background.)
HIM: Is this the number you were called on.
ME: No, but I was told something about...
HIM: (finishing my sentence) ...a citation?  So what number did they call you on?
ME: It was on my cell phone, and it isn't a NM number, so I don't know how you got that number...  
HIM (immediately interrupted): Now you know it wasn't me who called but a machine.  
ME: Correct, but I still don't know how my cell number was retrieved - especially since it is from a different state."  
HIM: So are you going to give me that number?
ME: No.
HIM: (Rudely) Well, fine, then you'll just keep getting more calls.  Have a nice day! (Hung up)

Last laugh is on him - I have blocking service on my cell phone! LOL!!!  BTW, I never lived in NM!

THEY SAY THE ARE CALLING ON BEHALF OF THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE IN REGARDS TO A CIVIL CITATION

The company is legit and was hired by the City of Albuquerque to collect on the citations the intersection cameras issued for people running redlights and/or speeding.  If you do not pay them, they will show up on your credit as a collections (trust me, just got this from personal experience).  It's up to you to pay or not pay, but if you think it is a SCAM, you are incorrect and will soon have negative marks on your credit report.  For those stating they have no 'tickets' on their record, that is correct, the redlight cameras did not put 'tickets' or 'citations' on your driving record, so your record will still show you have no tickets.  This is purely a money citation, it will not show on your traffic record.  That is a non-issue.  It is just a debt that is collected as any other.  Pay or don't pay, but it WILL go on your credit report as a collections if you don't.  Calling the City to verify if you have any tickets has nothing to do with the redlight cameras.

Unfortunately, contrary to what this message board is saying, this is the company that is collecting outstanding debt on City of Albuquerque red light traffic citations.  It's annoying because many of the citations are more than 4 years old, so therefore they CANNOT bring legal action against you for not paying them.  They can, however, report it to the credit bureaus and effectively ruin your credit if you refuse to pay them.  Obviously if you don't live here or never did, I wouldn't pay it, but if you go on their website after you call the number back you can see if it was your car or not.  You have to have the license plate number and citation number (they can give you this over the phone) and you can go to photonotice.com.

Here is the City of Albuquerque website saying that they are the legit bill collector for the tickets: http://www.cabq.gov/administrative-hearings/red-light-cameras

Here is an article in the Journal about the legality of trying to collect them:
http://www.abqjournal.com/main/196140/biz/sta ... stop-fines.html

Whether you pay it or not is your choice.  I personally am going to pay mine because I looked at the video, it is my car, and I don't need the credit problem.  Can you fight it and win?  In theory, yes, but the problem is that hiring an attorney to argue that case is going to cost more than the fines you could pay in the first place.

Good luck!

This is collector for traffic light citation. Dates back to 2007, he said this is very old and needs to be taken care of. This was after I got rid of the vechile, I told the guy I a not paying it was after I got rid of the vechile. He was an [***] and I hung up on him!

I received these calls and called them back.  They did have specific information about the make and model of my car.  I emailed the city of Albuquerque and they confirmed it was legitimate.  Here's the link they gave me: http://www.cabq.gov/administrative-hearings/r ... d-light-cameras

It's about a traffic ticket from the red light cams.so get the call and check your credit report.
i found yesterday that I have a unpaid citation for $175.00 from credit watch and no idea when the citation happend.
