What's the best thing to say to on an answering machine to get somebody who owes you money to call you back?

"Hey, I've got some great news to tell you...You'll never believe it! Call me back right away!"
"Hey, a letter in the mail came for you. It looks really important. Call me back, please"
"Hey, a really hot sounding chick samed Susan called here for you because she didn't know your phone number. I wanted to get permission from you before I gave it out. Call me back..."
Hope this helps!

Say this: "This message is for anyone and everyone calling, I owe a guy some amount of money, who ever gets me that money from that person by hook or by crook will get 10% of the money."

Hi XXX,
This is Wade2Diesel, my number is 555-5555. Please call me back so that we can work out a plan for the loan. I realize that it may be hard to return all at once, so let's consider a way to split it up into pieces. I am sure that we can find a solution that is fair to everyone and I certainly want to be fair.
Again my number is 555-5555, please call me back to kick it around with me.Thanks for understanding.

This is sincere and casual, not threatening or too assertive. First thing that you want is, the call back. When that happens, you need to keep them in a positive tone in order to negotiate a payment plan. A large amount of money in one lump may never work for most people, even thought you lent it in one lump sum.
If you try to keep it light, they will feel comfortable with you and may respond positively and quickly. No sob stories, they probably won't care if they are already delinquent in repaying.
Best of luck.

Tell them that you are not mad at them and that they should just get the money back to you when they can. Sure it is not direct and someone argue that it will not work. But would you really give the money back if someone was being disrespectful to you? It might even complicate the situation.

Just tell him you wanna know when you'll get your money back because you've financial problem now. Tell him to call you back in 24 hrs. And when he doesn't call you back, then you've to go to his house at the time that you know he's normally at home.
