I having a hard time beleiving that someone can just call and leave these type messages with out a letter of some sort first. This is why I feel this is bogus. And I don't want to call them until I have all my ducks in a row...if you know what I mean.I'm doing everything I can to try to find out who this company is and what they do. I am worried about if I don't call them...whats their next step. This is all new to me.

Try a verification letter to the address that twokid found...Add a cease and desist-only written communication to it, too...That will keep them from calling, but force them to give you everything in writing. Or stop them from being around at all. :)

Thanks twpkidtwocat for a address and Jessi for your advise. The company that twokidtwocat found, is it a collection agency ? And yes I will send them a cease and disist-only written notice. Can I write this out myself or do I have to get a legal form ?

Check on the TCI Corp listed above through the BBB and also found their name listed, with no complaint against them. Also went the web to see if I could find this company, and only found many other companies with TCI as a abbreviation for their companies. None were any form of a law office or a collector. Does anybody know of any law office or collection agencies with this name TCI.

If it is a very old debt, and seeing that it is not on your credit report, it must be, this firm must be "junk debt buyers". If there was any debt at all it would be way past the statute of limitations.
Debt buyers usually buy very old debts which are often past SOL.
Debt buyers usually buy very old debts which are often past SOL. Check your state laws regarding SOL rime frame. No legal action is enforceable for a past SOL debt. Keep us posted.

Just this week I received two calls also from this number, with the same message to call or have your lawyer call. Who is this ? Should I call my laywer to call them? I'm not aware of owing thing or did anything wrong. This is scary. I have been been on my computer searching for this phone number and most sites want to charge me for the imformation and with no garranty of findings. Finding this number here at least helps now to see if I can find this name you have found. I will check this site more often to see if anybody has found anything for you, so I can know what to do.

any luck? I just got a call from them as well demanding I call them. I've checked my credit report and have nothing past due anywhere or old debt.
Matter of fact, my credit rating is in the 'excellent' range. Anyone ever figure out what 'gives' for this company?

I had them call today too... they had left me a message having me or my attonery contact, but now they have told me they she has a claim on her desk for fraud, i don't know what this is about.

CTI
CTI sent me a letter claiming a 1500.00 debt to citi bank, I called city bank, had them look in their archieves, and they were not able to find anything in their files. I would not give CTI my social security number when I called them. I did tell them that I never had a debt with Citi bank, and when I got the confirmation letter from citi bank, I did mail it to them, Correspondence stopped for about 3 years, now all of a sudden, they are back at a new address, new phone number. When I asked why this did not show on my credit record, they told me that it may have been too old to show up. I will not answer thier phone calls this time, because I have done what I needed to do the first time. Now I am getting urgent calls re: my case number.... I must call before further action is taken. Thank goodness for caller ID
CTI Incorporated
I also received a call regarding some important business I needed to address with a Mr. Watson. I'm not sure what it is that he's talking about but the message stated that he wanted to talk to my attorney. The man even had my home address? I'm still confused, is this a scam or a legitimate call?
here's who it is CTI (read SCUM)
My caller ID read:

Jeanne
The collection agency that was trying to scam you the first time has sold your information for profit to annother fraudulent scam agency. This is common practice, if they cant trick you into giving them money you dont owe they can still make a small profit off your name and information by selling it to annother collection agency to try to extort money from you.
Somehow this is legal, but I dont know how.

I know these Posts were in 2006, but I received a Message from a lady named Stephanie. She said she needed to hear from me TODAY or a decision will be made in my behalf. So, now what? And how did everyone handle this? Or them?
The only decision they will make is if you don't call they will
The only decision they will make is if you don't call they will decide to call you tomorrow and threaten you some more. Ask for a debt validation in writing. If they refuse, do not pay.
CTI
[font=Times New Roman][/font][color=Black][/color][size=3][/size]I have had a very unplesant experience with CTI and I don't know what to do they threatened to take away my house and when I told them I didn't own a house they would take my car. I told them that would be hard to do since I owed over $6000 on it to Honda still. Then they threatened me physically. I hung up on them and they called me back 4 hours latter I am a pastor and I was on my way to the hospital (they called Me on my cell phone) a parishiner had been taken to the emergeny room I was going there to minister to them. I told the caller I could not talk that I had to go into the emergency room he called me a lier and began to scream at me I had the phone on speaker so my wife heard the whole thing. The next day he called me back and demanded that I write a check to them even though they was no money in the checking account. He said I was being uncoperative and was going to take me to court. I told him If he would wait 1 week I would have the money and pay it in full. He said no I sending this in to sue you. 1 week later a very nice ladie from there called me and I was able to pay them in full, but now the eventhough paid in full Sears (the original creditor) has sold this as a bad account and they are trying to collect it again. The only proof of payment is my Checking acount where I paid CTI $666.00 what can I do to get this straightened out.
So is CITI attempting to collect again on the debt you paid them

CPI
I actually had them contact my son's cell phone. I called them back to tell them that they have contacted a 14 yr old boy. I am now thinking of getting my lawyer involved to go after them for harassment of a child. Hoping I can find more charges for them as well.
one thing you can do is contact your State Attorney General. Most SAGs have a website that you can file an official complaint on. This is the only way to combat them because they won????????t give any information to you about their location. But the SAG can look deeper into this and check out your complaint against CPI. (CTI) or whatever else name they want to use for the week.
Same thing
I had the same thing happen a man called and didnt say anything else just call this number and gave a case #. this is so weir dwhat do they want.

I received 2 different calls from 866-471-7100. A "Mrs. Sanders" left a message telling me to call her the same day or else. I tried to return the call but the number was not working at the time, how convenient. "CTI" called yesterday and I answered it. It was regarding a charged off account from a credit card. "Mrs. Sanders" asked me if I wanted to make voluntary payments or be taken to court over the matter. I chose the voluntary payments and she sent me to her supervisor "Mr. Taylor". He was very rude and hateful. He demanded that I pay $4,070 to him within 24 hours or else I was going to be sent to court and end up paying more than that. I said what about the voluntary payments? He said well, you can pay 30% today and the rest in 2 months. I told him where he could go and what he could do when he got there and hung up. I haven't received any letters of debt verification either. What kind of information can I get about this company and who can I report their behavior to?

I don't know about threats, but they do keep calling...and asking for a girl I went to HS with. I've tried to call them back, but nobody ever answers. Ya can't even leave a message. Kinda ticks me off, coz it's not *my* debt collector calling. :S
