FDR Canada

Scams

Got a call from 8556607757 (“Financial Debt Recovery” or FDR) looking for a certain person. I pretended to be that person and she tried to verify address+DOB if she’s ringin the same person or not but turns out she had the persons real name+address+DOB (I gave fake ones). I googled them and I found a lot of shit:

When confronted, she got pissed and said " THIS IS A LEGITIMATE BUSINESS"

I keep getting FDR calls, this topic is almost 2 years ago, and they keep ringing me. I don’t pickup because they call me on my real phone. Tried blocked, new number everytime.
