Hi Nelly,
I have just started to get calls on my cell phone from this organization. They leave no message. Another phone # of theirs is: 877- 298-2251.
These people aren't working for the government, are they? I have a student loan. Thanks, D
CFG Associates is a collection agency. They may be calling you regarding a debt of yours. Send a debt validation letter in writing to them. If they don't validate the debt, then send a C&D letter to them.
By signing up for counseling session, your provided details (Name, Email ID and Phone No.) will be forwarded to the company advertising on the DebtCC. However, you have no obligation to use their services.
Some creditors and collection agencies refuse to lower the pay off amount, interest rate, and fees owed by the consumer.
Creditors/collection agencies can make collection calls and file lawsuits against the consumers represented by the debt relief companies.
Debt relief services may have a negative impact on the consumer's creditworthiness and his overall debt amount may increase due to the accumulation of extra fees.
The amount which the consumer saves with the use of debt relief services can be regarded as taxable income.
