I got several messages from Marlin Recovery from different state area codes. First was vague callback demand. The second was a text and message from Tammy, also vague about a debt associated with my phone number, now the third message from Michael Harris claiming to be a skip tracer.

I went to their website www.marlinrecovery.com, which wants your info but gives you nothing actionable about themselves. So I did a full nationwide business license search and all I came up with is a business called Marlin Recovery Resources out of a house in Alabama that operated for one year from 2016-2017 then closed. Reported the site to Google fraud as questionable.

They started calling me this week. They can keep leaving messages if they want but I have no debt beyond student loans. Anything prior to my bankruptcy was included in the bankruptcy. 🤷‍♀️

I've gotten calls from Chris, Jared, and Jason. The voice and wording is exactly the same and the length of time is exactly 32 seconds every time, indicating that it is a recording. They never mention who they are calling for, just to call them back "at this number" (but there's never a number) or go to the link on their website. They also call from numbers from around the country (New Jersey, Nebraska, Orlando, so far) or it just routes directly to voicemail.

They have been calling and texting me non stop. They texted me this morning at 730am. I told them that they are violating text opt-in laws and that the bogus debt does not exist. Then they send me this :
“ The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau issued a final rule that essentially updates the rules outlined in the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Among some of the updates made by the new rules, the CFPB explicitly says debt collectors can send unlimited text messages, emails and direct messages on social media platforms to consumers. Additionally, the rule requires that debt collectors who use electronic messaging — such as texting, emailing or direct messaging on social media — need to provide a simple method for consumers to opt-out you made arrangements with is and defaulted on the payment“
So I replied with this:
“ I'm sending this to my lawyer. All of my debt has been paid. Stop texting. This is invading my privacy. And no, I've dealt with other debt in the past and they never text without a text in option especially in New York State. Have a great Easter ”

I just got a VM from “ compliance manager Chris from marlin recovery.” The VM states “this is compliance manager Chris from marlin recovery. I had my secretary leave you several messages last week and have yet to hear back from you. I urge you to take a few moments to settle this matter, again this is very serious and you need to handle this account today please. You can call us back at this number or with just a few clicks at MARLIN RECOVERY .com. We need this resolved immediately. “ They have been calling me every week. 😒

I have been getting calls, messages and texts from multiple #s for this company for several months now. I tracked down the account they claim to be collecting on to the original creditor from 20 years ago. Come to find out this account doesn't even belong to them. It was purchased by a different company back in 2014 and they still own it. The account has reached it's statute for collections. You cannot reach a human through any phone # for this company. The chat doesn't work and no one replies to their online contact feature. They are simply trying to get people to send them money online with no options for speaking to anyone.
