Possible Repossession Trick by 'Fleet' Delivery Service

Shopaholic · #1 04-30-2006, 10:42 AM

I fell behind in Chase auto payments for 90 days. I am all paid up including late charges to date. I keep receiving this letter from an unknown company called "Fleet" with a motto of "At fleet, we never sleep" It states that the driver did not find me at home to sign for delivery. It then asks me to contact them at a 1800 number with an extension and leave the time and date I will be at home. I call this number and it is all vague prerecorded messages giving no company name or specifics. It asks me to leave a message. Is this a repo man trying to reposess my car?

I forgot to add that I never ordered anything, it is an obvious scam of some sort.

It could be one of a number of scams.

If you are caught up with the bank, and your account is current in their system, there shouldn't be an issue with repossession.

It might be a blind to secure a new phone number and an address. There are many "blind" skip-tracing tactics and this one was popular soon after a law was passed making pretexts (you've won a prize and I need your address to deliver it) off limits for collectors.
