A former friend took out a car loan and wasn't making payments. Without my knowledge, he listed my name as a credit reference with my phone number. I haven't seen this guy in over a year and they are calling me everyday asking about the car or money. I don't have any knowledge of his whereabouts. Isn't there anything I can do to make it so they can stop calling me besides telling them to stop(which I already have) They never called me to confirm whether he is a credit risk or not, but we already weren't friends, so I would have said I can't vouch for him. Any help would be appreciated
How do I get an auto finance company to stop calling me?Unless you signed some document stating you as the co-signer guarantee on the note, you own them nothing. It seems very strange that a finance company would accept someones name and phone as a credit reference. However, a credit reference implies that you are someone to call for - simply put - a reference and does not guarantee anything.
Tell the finance company you do not know where your former friend is and that you do not and are not bound by anything he may have done. If they persist, contact your local law enforcement and see what they might suggest or something they might can do. There are laws regarding harassment. But before you call any law, be absolutely sure you did not sign anything.
