Caller: Credit Corp


This is Credit Corp - debt collection agency attempting to recover money by blowing out the phones of third parties that may or may not know the subject of the alledged debt.

They attempt to call parents, siblings, cousins, neighbours, work colleagues, anyone even remotely associated with the subject or their lives in the hope they can get to them. What they do is illegal, and they can safely be ignored.

When a bad debt is passed onto a debt collector, the agency purchases the debt for 10 to 20 cents in the dollar and then attempt to collect the FULL amount from the original borrower (plus interest).

However, what most people are unaware of is that once the debt has been purchased by a third party (in this case Credit Corp), the debt has been expunged for the original borrower, and that is the end of the matter. The only signature from the borrower is on a contract between the bank/credit provider and the borrower. There is no signed contract between a debt collector and the original borrower.

Therefore, do not admit or agree to anything a debt collector says on the phone, as they will attempt to trick you into entering into a contract with them (if you're the original borrower they are after) and try to get you on a 'payment plan'.

The statute of limitations means they can only chase you for a maximum of five years, but if you admit to anything or enter into agreement with them (even verbally), then that resets and you can be harangued another five years or until you've satisfied the needs of these vultures.

Your best bet is to avoid them like the plague, legally they have no clout. All they have is intimidation tactics on the phone. Weak!

i'm a credit collector and they're legally only allowed to call 3 times a week or 12 in a month, but that is IF YOU ANSWER. so answer the call & just hang up & they won't be able to call again

I called back number (03) 9448 2601 spoke to a guy who did not say the company name but only said they handle private matters, So possible a debt collection company.

They rang me trying to get hold of my son. Guy wouldnt give me details, under "privacy laws". Yet they invade my privacy by ringing me, chasing my son.
Glad ppl told me it a possible finance person.. debt collector.

Sounded like a scammer. Refused to give me details of why they called me until I gave them all my private information. I just hung up on them.

number > (03) 9448 2601 ( assume in victoria ? ) rang "3/12/19" . Once again received another call from this number ( As other fellow Australian,s have also ) twice within a week or so ? No spoken voice / message left ? Assume a "sinister Agenda" as other people claim as well ? Time caller rang was precisely at "3:55pm " AEST ?

got a call from (03) 9448 2601 today at 3:55pm ( AEST ) and "NO" person spoke only loud background music for around say 2 to 3 minutes ? As other callers have also been contacted by this number once again it,s a scam network / standover debt collection "MOB" ? More and more people receiving these calls like the above listed people have commented previously ? This is wednesday 27/11/19 .Also, it appears the AFP > ( The "FEDS" ) may know of this "MOB" ?
