Consumer Narrative
A company called Brown and Joseph from XXXX Illinois is claiming to represent XXXX XXXX. They have called me a least a dozen times and I have gotten a letter also claiming I owe {$1000.00}, I do not owe any money to XXXX and have confirmed this with XXXX, Sent receipt of cancelled XXXX comp that states this twice through emails to XXXX XXXX, XXXX. Been getting theses calls for the past 6weeks and the most recent was today, XX/XX/2023. This is no billing error, I am on auto pay with my other business policies through XXXX. It is a clear attempt of fraud. Reviews for Brown and Joseph have many people with the same experience, with many being duped into paying a fraudulent collection agency. Why are these people still in business? This is a criminal matter that is taking place on U.S. soil. Hoping justice is served.
