**Debt Collection Scam Campaign Targets Consumers with Coordinated Phone Network**
Our analysis has identified a sophisticated debt collection scam campaign operating through a network of 6 connected phone numbers and 3 debt collection companies. The phone numbers in this campaign include 8886917134, 8885800734, 9153209702, 8444531118, 8776840410, and 6899000685, all of which show coordinated activity patterns with 0.70 confidence levels indicating they are part of the same campaign operation. These numbers are connected to three debt collection entities: Credit Adjustment, Inc (4 CFPB complaints), Credit Corp Solutions Inc. (2727 CFPB complaints), and ACCOUNT SERVICES INC. (8 CFPB complaints).
The campaign demonstrates clear organizational structure through shared infrastructure and coordinated messaging. Credit Adjustment, Inc is directly connected to phone number 8886917134 through co-reporting patterns, while Credit Corp Solutions Inc. is linked to 8444531118. Community reports reveal the scammers use consistent scripts, with callers identifying themselves as "Tyler with Miranda Prescott's team at the Credit Adjustment Division" and "Megan Carter" when leaving voicemails. The operation employs number rotation tactics, with victims reporting that when they block one number, the scammers call back using a different number from their network.
Consumer impact data shows this campaign has generated significant complaints, particularly against Credit Corp Solutions Inc. with 2727 CFPB complaints. Community reports indicate the scammers employ persistent calling tactics and leave scripted voicemails about "prior matters" to create urgency. Victims report receiving repeated calls with identical messages, and the scammers demonstrate sophisticated evasion techniques by cycling through multiple phone numbers when consumers attempt to block them.
**Consumer Protection Advice:** If you receive calls from any of these numbers or similar debt collection claims, do not provide personal information or make payments. Legitimate debt collectors must provide written validation of debts within five days of initial contact. Hang up immediately on suspicious calls, do not click any links in related text messages, and report incidents to the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or file complaints with the FCC. To verify if a phone number or company is legitimate, check the CFPB complaint database and search community reporting sites for user experiences. Always request written documentation for any claimed debts and verify directly with original creditors before engaging with collection agencies.
This campaign represents a high-threat, coordinated scam operation with extensive infrastructure and persistent targeting methods. The combination of 2739 total CFPB complaints across the connected entities and sophisticated number rotation tactics indicates an active, well-resourced threat. Consumers should exercise extreme caution with any contact from these numbers or companies. Recommended next steps include adding all identified numbers to spam blocking lists, reporting any contact attempts to federal authorities, and alerting family members and colleagues about this specific campaign's tactics and messaging patterns.
