Has anyone heard of this group? What are they? I received a call from them yesterday on my cell phone (which also serves as my home phone). I rarely give out that number, except to friends and family. The last two times I gave it out was to the college where I'm finishing my bachelors degree and, more recently, to creditreport.com, where I obtained copies of my credit report. Oddly, I cancelled their service yesterday - I had to pay to get my scores and get more than one report, so wasn't entirely happy with them - thought their pitch was a little on the dishonest side. Anyway, the call from PRA came within an hour of my cancelling the creditreport.com service. Coincidence? Do CAs and the various groups that give away/sell credit reports have some kind of deal to help each other out? Maybe that's just crazy talk! In any case, I didn't - and won't - return their call. I don't talk to credit collectors over the phone; that's been my personal policy for years now. There is a write-up about this group at ripoffreport.com.
