(775) 432-0987

I had a message on my phone from a NV number: 702-779-3562. I called back at the number as directed: 888-774-6302. I spoke with Monica. She informed me that PNC bank was suing me. When I asked if I would receive more information in the mail about the complaint Monica let me know that the information would be forthcoming in court during the discovery phase. She said that nothing would be mailed to me and that I would be served a subpoena in person at my residence. I then asked her what organization she was with -when she said, "Beneficial Mediation" I was surprised. Nothing about the call had anything to to with mediation and it was not beneficial.

"Patricia Bell" called from 302-726-8732, said she represented Beneficial Mediation Services, obviously a bullshit collection/spam call. Just hang up and try to block the number if you can. If not, it's your chance to let off some steam or use a very noisy whistle or other ear-splitting device.

I received a call from 573-203-6108. They left a message a complaint filed against me and to press 9 to speak with someone or call back at 888-908-2753.

I was contacted by "Patricia" at 310-579-2753 about paying a very old debt that they say went into collections in April 2007. I had to dial "9" for more information, which I did, but then I was hung up on. I dialed the number they had given me which was 888-908-2753.

They said that they were collecting on behalf of Chase Manhattan Bank and I had to pay $1,300 right now or BMS would file a lawsuit against me in county court. They said they would file a lien on my home, garnish my wages. They told me it would ruin my excellent credit score (which they said was 720, but I know it's not above 700 right now).

Patricia nor "John Stuart" (lol) would not verify my information, they said they would use the recordings of the phone calls in court against me. They continually cut me off, YELLED at me, and were extremely aggressive, would not give me their address or the legal company name. It had to be settled now, not in an hour or tomorrow, or they would sue.

Most disturbing, they had my correct social security number, full name and a former address.

The company may be affiliated with the Joseph C. Bella III lawsuit now going on in NY cause of the fraudulent practices of Bella's organizations which are also known as "boiler room" operations. "The Federal Trade Commission and the People of the State of New York bring this action to stop a debt collection enterprise from continuing to victimize consumers through a host of deceptive and abusive practices. Defendants call consumers from boiler rooms in upstate New York and claim that the consumers are facing pending charges for check fraud or other fraudulent acts. Defendants then threaten that consumers will face drastic consequences—including arrest or imprisonment—if the charges are not resolved. And Defendants assert that the only way consumers can resolve the charges is to make an immediate payment on a debt. This “pay up or else” collection scheme is a high-pressure hoax: there is no reasonable basis for the claim that consumers committed fraud; the debts are dubious; there are no pending charges; and the threats of dire consequences are a sham" is what is being reported about the company which is doing business in the same manner as that of what may be going on with the Beneficial Mediation Services company. See this lawsuit going on now so you can recognize the schemes this company attempts to use like that in the Bella lawsuit in hopes to possibly defraud those they contact through these schemes. Read the information in the introduction on pages 1 through 3 because this will help you realize the company is violating consumer Federal Trade Commission laws since they're in non compliance with the 'dire circumstances' clauses governing collection agencies.

These are nasty scammers who refuse to give information about this company. Nasty Nasty Nasty People. I do NOT owe money to the company they claim will sue me and "have the country sheriff serve me where I work." My name and phone number are being misused for this harassment. Their number is 201-285-8542. A rep said the company is in New Jersey.

If someone calls you about an actual complaint they would not leave an automated message on your phone. Beware *(775) 432-0987, do not respond.

These people call themselves Beneficial Mediation Services. They lie and say they have a document with a complaint, etc. They are liars. Don't take their calls. Put them on your do not call list, etc. They are scammers.
