WELLS FARGO & COMPANY Debt collection department,

Other debt False statements or representation Impersonated attorney, law enforcement, or government official Nevada

This company has on several occasions called me, my family members, and my husband 's ex-wife stating that I have a pending law suit against me. The company gets very aggressive and threatening before hanging up. Today -/-/- I decided to go along with the call to find out exactly what they were trying to get from me. I have 2 voicemails from a gentleman stating that there was a lawsuit against me and that my failure to respond would result in my admission and I would be held accountable by the courts. I called back and was transferred to a girl that said it was in regards to a Wells Fargo account that I opened in -/-/- and that I overdrew the account and owed $4200.00, I knew that this was incorrect. She then stated that they had tried to settle the account with me for $1300.00 which was also incorrect. I told her that I was concerned that someone got a hold of my social security number and that I would be calling the social security department, she started to get aggressive and ask why I would do that but then quickly said that maybe I should because I am responsible for the debt and I should be prepared to show the judge everything. I asked when the court date would be and she said that would be in the letter they send me. I asked her when the account was closed and she said that I didn't close the account but Wells Fargo closed it because the account was so overdrawn. I also knew this was false. I called Wells Fargo and they confirmed that I do not have any outstanding accounts with them. I was able to get the name, address, and phone number to the company that has called. I want them to stop contacting me and the people I know in regards to this fraudulent claim. The company is called - - -, the phone number was -, and the address is - - - -, CA -.
