Received a creepy letter asking "Should I know the whereabouts of xx xxxxx xxxxx please telephone 0800xxxxxx and ask for assistance " and a 6 digital code is also included. This I believe is a debt collector trying to chase someone living at an address I now reside at for the last year? I don't know or have ever known the person they are looking for. Maybe they should try contacting the Courts, justice dept, WINZ etc, etc
0800-555-751 (New Zealand). Telecom Collections Company. (Telecom (now SPARK) was the name of the largest New Zealand Telephone/broadband company, now trade-as SPARK. These people 'post' letters out to homes titled 'To the Occupier', and within that letter is 'Do you know the where-abouts of "name of person'. Beware Collections Company
I rung the number and apparently I have an outstanding bill with globug. But she couldn’t provide information when and what address accumulated the bill etc.
I am awaiting a confirmation email as to what is owed by myself.
Personally I think this number is a scam for the following reasons
1. I have never signed up with globug
2. Globug is a prepaid service so if you do not buy a top up you will have no power so a bill doesn’t accumulate
3. She couldn’t provide any information
