I would provide a "minus" rating if I could. I received two calls last week from these people regarding what they called an unresolved balance on a **** credit card obtained through ********************* when we lived in ** 2007-2009. They had our old address and my husband's SS#, even though I was careful not to confirm either with them. First of all, there is NO ******************* where we lived, secondly there was NO credit card we had associated with any bank account--EVER. We were married at the time and all cards were joint. First they said we owed a figure over $1,000, then they said we only owed a small balance of a little over $300. I gave them my gmail address and asked them to provide proof to back up what they were saying. I have blocked their phone number on our phone. When I looked them up, there seems to be numerous complaints through you about this company. They are attempting to scam **. They have never followed up with supporting information via gmail and have never called again. BEWARE!!!

In all fairness, we have to notify you that we did receive a letter from Lake City this week. They have conducted a review and "have decided to close the matter in the spirit of good customer relations". We are grateful for this consideration and that we weren't forced to pursue this through legal channels. We had no such outstanding debt.Review from Susan M

I received a call from a very nasty person stating my husband owed money on a card from **** master card. I advised them he has never owned a **** master card. He said we will be taking legal action for this card I said send me all information so I can have his case worker look into it. As my husband has had a stroke in 2014 and has brain damage from it .Said he is very sick and I have been handling all of his finances since 2014.He said my husband paid ****** on august the 2020.Advised that has never happened. Called **** and they advised The number is fraudulent. They said it is a scam and to report it. My husband and I are seniors and this is very scary and not right. They need to be stopped from this kind of scam and threats.Review from Brooke W

Company called me about a debt with my current bank telling me I owed over $300. The woman's name was Jessica (heavy accent) ; phone number ************, LAKE CITY CREDIT in Lake Dallas, Texas. I do not have any overdrawn accounts with my current bank and automatically know this is a scam of some sort. She did not confirm anything besides my name before providing me my debt information as well ; which is odd. I do believe you are supposed to also confirm bday/address/ or social security number before they provide debt information to you. SCAM SERVICE. No mini Miranda followed (partial mini Miranda was said about recording the call)- she was hesitant to provide company information.
