Just got a call from these idiots tonight. THey say I owe them 385.00 but if I give them a check over the phone they would settle for 187.00. I told them I need to contact the BBB and my laywer then they got ignorant. This debt was suppossed to be my ex-wifes bill, it was in the divorce decree, but they are now harrassing me about it.
I even said "let me call you tommorro after I talk to my lawyer and see what we can do". Only to be yelled at and told that tommorro the bill would me 387.00 instead of 187.00.
This jerk even told me that he was proud of his job and that they probably bought this bill for 3 cents on the dollar. THen I heard cheering in the background and he says "you here that?, we just hit 14,000.00 in collections tonight. I tried to stay cool for a long time but after 20 min of his yelling I called him the name of what we sit on and hung up.
it surprized me that I looked them up on the internet and ended up on this web sight.

great idea I plan to do the same thing here in the Pittsburgh Pa area. It is unbelievable to me that this Company has been getting away with this! They almost had me convinced that I owed this money to them. I fear for an elderly person that gets these phone calls. I haven't heard from them again since I received their letter stating that I had until the 13th of this month to settle this. I know I will though and everytime the phone rings I cringe. Hopefully we can all pull together and stop these people.

We did all that we could as far as reporting them to every office that was available. But after we got on here and seen all they had been doing to people, we called our local television station and began to forward every bit of information we had on this company. Well the same day our local troubleshooter called and wanted to do an on screen television interview with us at our home. This aired last week in our area. We just hope it will do some good. My point is do not stop at anything to stop these people. They have no business trying to do what they do to so many people.

Talked to the atty General for Ill. and was told that CAMCO is under investigation. THe number for this consumer fraud Dept is: 312-814-3000. They will send you out a packet to fill out against CAMCO and will use it as part of their litigation. I was told that there has been several hundred calls. I didn't even have to say the company name and the person on the other end guessed it! everyone please call and get involved and put these bottom feeders out of business.

Contact the attorney general. My harrassing phone calls at home got more frequent, including getting my work number from my 12 yr old daughter. The phone calls started there and continued even though I repeatedly told them not to call there. They also contacted a neighbor of mine. Go or contact the attorney generals office in your state. It's a starting point! Good luck and you have my sympathy for the hell this company is going to put you through!
