When searching for Cain and Weiner there are two initial websites that are misrepresenting themselves and answer the phone. They do not introduce themselves as their company “Credit Sage”. Instead they allow you to think they are the credit agency you are trying to contact to help you remove this from your report. Even when I was saying how these accounts are not not with you guys, they are not Cain and Weiner , they insisted they could help with it and did not disclose who they actually were. After paying around 1000 dollars … I checked up on google website and it was not Cane and Weiner … this is sad to know but wow. I am out 1000 dollars and hope others do not fall for this trusting they are getting help from the agency that owns their debt. I am looking now and don’t see them at the top of the google page so reporting them to googles worked as well.

I was served a Writ that listed LVNV Funding as the plaintiff. That is who I thought I was calling, number obtained via Google. I asked multiple times if that is who I was speaking with and was told yes. The agent, Desiree, said I had to pay a one time processing fee of $1.00 for her to access my information. I repeated, this is a one time only fee correct? She confirmed. Then she is reading stuff off and kept talking about other collections on my credit and how she could take care of those so more creditors don't sue me. She was pressuring my to pay $487 for her to file disputes on my behalf. Again, I asked if this was LVNV Funding because it all sounded weird. She then stated they are with them but for whatever reason they sometimes kick the call to their branch. I asked her to send me information because I was not comfortable paying that kind of fee over the phone. She was reluctant to email me information, stating they would send it after I paid. She ended up emailing it to me but the email she sent, a contract, was from Credit Sage NOT LVNV Funding. She was telling me I had to sign it right there on the phone. I refused. I told her I had to speak to my husband first. She told me to get him on the phone right then and there. I told ger I could not. I told her I would call her back. I did not sign anything and did not pay anything, other than the $1.00 "processing fee". This call took place 1/9/26 @ 9:14 am. 1/10/26 I received an email from Standard Scores, never heard of them, that I was enrolled and paid $1.00 for a trial that after 7 days would start charging me $24.95/mo. I was never told I was speaking with anyone but LVNV Funding. Was never told I was speaking with Credit Sage. Was never told anything about Standard Scores. I never enrolled in any further programs. I am now watching my account like a hawk and am terrified about the information they now have. [BBB Scam Type: Debt Collections] [Business: Credit Sage] [Location: MI, USA - 48438]

I called the number of a collection agency in order to inquire about a medical account I have through them. I fully thought I was talking to this local agency in my state of Arkansas, but that was not the case. This person proceeded to tell me that he could help me get the information I needed, but needed to verify my personal account information. He gave a long pitch about needing to make sure my medical debts wasn't showing on my credit report. Again, I thought I was speaking to my credit collection service. This individual obtained my information, pulled my credit report and told me about my report. He said he would email it to me, but I never received it. He tried to sell me a service to remove any late payments and other things that were lowering my credit score. I told him no and he pushed with more sales pitch. I told him I'm not sure how my call got routed to this business. I pressed for the name of the company and his name. This is definitely a scam. You think you are calling your debt collector, but the call goes here to Credit Sage. Beware!!!! [BBB Scam Type: Debt Collections] [Business: Credit Sage] [Location: AR, USA- 72058]
