We don't owe a dime to anyone on the face of this earth.  The call is a SCAM!!  

I received a call stating i owed PNC BANK from a few years back, i dont recall. They stated that criminal charges were pending and they needed a payment now...I scrapped all my money together n made a payment of 383.00 half of wat they said i owed (so they emailed me a receipt except it was not mine, it was for someone else...yup they email me all her info, name, address, phone number,  social security number..mistake number 1...they would give me two weeks to get the other half, which is today. On june 6 I received an email from MAXIMUM the payment processing company with all my info, stating i made a payment of 241.00 which i DID NOT, nothing charged to my card just a receipt.  I confronted the company and they were very defensive. ....i made the other payment but i also went to.the police station and they are investigating all of THIS. ..

call to try and obtain credit card info....

I received a call from Margaret Smith of the Ross and Peterson Law firm, telephone number 281-306-0346. She stated that I needed to contact her firm immediately-her firm was representing the State of Virginia and a pending law suit from the state against me. She also informed me that I only had 24 hours to contact her, if not it would lead to a criminal case. I called and it seemed legitimate, she provided my dob, and social security number, she also called my relatives in an attempt to find me. Nonetheless, I following a research of the company I found out she was a collection agent.  Fraud. Someone needs to contact the real law firm and report these people

>> are violating the FDCPA at best <<

You hit the nail, here.
He discussing actions taken on attempts to collect debt from named individuals on an open forum.
He opening himself and his "enterprise" to so many viable lawsuits and federal penalties, it is laughable.
Doing just that PROVES he is nothing more than a conman.

Appears to be a identity crisis going on here, talk about shill post..  Mr. Evans is obvious!

Odd, huh! Hookay Tracy to the rescue! The ol' Conner contacted me, trick! Geez! and of course Tracy doesn't know who this company is or where their located either! How pathetic, the entire group Conner, Sissy Evans, and now the revised Tracy. Some times you have to wave 3 red BS flags, just sayin'!

Then you will certainly not mind giving us the company name and at least the website.

In one breath you claim how "valuable your reputation is" then in the next breath you say "public opinion doesn't matter".
Which is it? It's the public opinion that makes a reputation good or bad. Make up your mind since you seem to think you are the only one on this thread that has one.

Conner contacted me regarding this post and asked me to give my honest opinion. They did refund me the payment of $150 until I got the letter in the mail. With everything that was going on I was just confused and didn't want to be scammed. I stopped by his office and he allowed me to verify his business liscnese and I did pay what I owe. The only thing I can say is that you need to make sure that you owe before you pay anyone!

>>> I assume by quoting someone, you lack the mental capacity of the average human being. <<<

And I assume that by your opinion on quotations, you have never read or tried to read a legal opinion before.  Unless, working at a law firm as you say you do, you have so little respect for judges that you think that they lack the mental capacity of the average human being.  In which case, I stand by everything I've said about you.

If you want to contact me directly, you can call me at + 4470 1760 2550 (yes, that's a real, working phone number) or email me at urashill@hmamail.com (yes, that's a real, working email address).  Just spell out the name of the law firm you work for and tell me what state it is in.

What makes the rest of us chuckle here, is your responses add no validity to your claim either - you've been asked repeatedly to post a company name, address, website - and yet you still refuse to do so.  If you didn't have anything to hide, you would at least post a website.

WHY, oh WHY are we wasting our time with this self-centered "professional"??  He can only parrot comments similar to those given to him and in some cases, only add a sarcastic remark.  He refuses a simple firm validation request .  That, in itself, is a sign of a troll. - or someone with something to hide.  


FIN

You, sir, are obviously hiding some facts that appear to be counterproductive to your claims of a law firm.  Several persons have respectfully requested contact information.  You refuse so you, sir,  are no more than a SHAM.  Personal attack on me - nice try.  Is that how professional you are?  I seriously doubt you ever attended law school.  You are rather eloquent in speech yet you say nothing new.

Please show where I claimed to "above the law".  Please prove I am an "under educated heathen".  I believe that is libel and could be used in court against you.

I know I have people who love me, thank you.  Again - a pathetic attempt on your part  to disgrace me.  In do NOT have to pat myself on the back to feel important.  I know my limits and have wasted enough time replying to an "attorney" who is ALSO hiding behind a computer.

That made me chuckle a little. How about this.... Your response has no validity to this post. You took a few big words and thought that by forming them into an insult that you would somehow make sense. Why is your statement in quotations? Are you that simple that you can't respond with the few words you learned throughout your life? I assume by quoting someone, you lack the mental capacity of the average human being.

MJG,

Do you believe it the best thing to do at this point is to provide my information to an "illiterate" (as you so eloquently put it) bunch of people? So you can call my place of employment and rant and rave with your beliefs and philosophies about who we are? The last thing I need is a plethora of "intellectually challenged" individuals calling and hanging up, making bad jokes, making flatulent sound effects as I have already experienced. The funny thing about under educated heathens is.... PRIVATE NUMBERS CAN BE TRACED! So continue thinking you are above the law while sitting behind your computer (probably the only thing you love and you think it loves you back) while browsing the internet looking for an opportunity to make yourself feel important.

I suggest you find somewhere else!

>>> Please try again with an educated response. <<<

OK.  How about, "You are a person suffering from a syndromic intellectual disability with indications of paranoid schizophrenia?"

Since you ASSume some posters are illiterate, why not name your company & give its contact information?  That would certainly help the intellectually challenged of us understand you better.

Public opinion means nothing. Evidently not a well thought out response. Your response " It is a court of public opinion, and the jury here finds you guilty on several counts each of being an idiot and a slime ball." clearly implies that you are a juvenile and you're not capable of understanding LAW! Public law is non-existent. Please try again with an educated response.

>>> Again, where did I directly say that I was an attorney? Implication stands zero ground in a court of law. <<<

You are correct.  This forum is not a court of law.  It is a court of public opinion, and the jury here finds you guilty on several counts each of being an idiot and a slime ball.

Mr. Conner

Please answer my questions!. Maybe it was possible that you didn't respond to me earlier because I failed to address with a proper salutation for a man of your station in life.  So, Mr. Conner,  on two different occasions I have made simply queries to you .  A first, regarding identifying information of your company and organization.  Second, regarding the basis of your claim that a respect member of this community was harassing you.   Disappointingly, I have not recieved a response to either.

Inasmuch as there have been several consumer complaints posted on multiple dates and time, I am growing alarmingly skeptical by the moment.  I have made a diplomatic attempt to afford you the opportunity to vindicate the name of your organization and discredited.  

If I do not get a reply to my two questions, I humbly submit to readers that you are group of morally reprobate individuals who are violating the FDCPA at best, or engaged in an out right criminal enterprise at worst.  

Govern yourself accordingly!

Again, where did I directly say that I was an attorney? Implication stands zero ground in a court of law.

Check the United States Constitution. The fact is you posted on an open forum that allows ANYONE to share their opinion. You might want to check the TOS. That is short for Terms of Service.

I don't believe you are an attorney in anyway shape or form.


Just so you know this is my opinion and you cannot touch me for expressing my opinion.

>> Again! We have nothing to hide. <<

I am afraid your actions belie your words.
You have not given us your business' title, address, website or other public information, in spite of several requests to do so.  Therefore, in the absence of such information, our opinion of your legitimacy is quickly declining, and it was rather suspect to start.

In the interim, thank you for the entertainment.

On the one hand, I see the rationale with your argument for making negative statements about your company (I'm not saying I agree or disagree with it).

On the other hand, what exactly is basis for the claim that Gunnar "made threats and harassed us"?

As always, I await your positive response!

If you have nothing to hide, why have you not responded with the name, physical address, and website pertaining to your "firm"?  When you refuse to give this information - which, by the way, any consumer would ask for - you make yourself look suspicious.

Again! We have nothing to hide. Your experiences may equip you with an arsenal for an bottom feeding collection agency but I would advise you to choose your words carefully when dealing with an law firm. Your jargon that seems to be scripted from a movie, does not intimidate me. Must be comfortable behind your computer playing world of world craft all day and browsing the internet for forums to post responses that seem to reflect some sort of power or authority. WE have done nothing wrong, YOU on the other hand have slandered our company, made threats and harassed us. We have responded to every claim with dignity and respect (in which you seem to lack). Your were never a customer or an client! You have no business or right to intrude on an response to OUR clients. What accreditation do you have? What authority do you have? What experience do you have? You're constantly referring to collection agencies, clearly you have no idea who you are dealing with! I have had sites shut down for much less! The game has just begun! Your move!

Wassup Conner,

 How might we contact you?

This whole situation presents a dilemma for readers.  On the one hand fraudulent debt collectors are a huge problem.  Not only do they create a loss for consumers but even hurt the legitimate accounts receivables professionals who own the account.  On the other hand, there (as you correctly point out) the potential problem of people posting malicious and false information to hurt the reputation of business.

I would you be kind enough to post the name of your business or firm?  If so I am sure that readers could then do their own investigation and find out about the positive image of your company.

I will caution you though that regulars include several members with extensive investigative skills.  They are not "skip tracers" and the word "skip tracing" is not in their vocabulary.

I await your positive response!

Yo Conner,

You mean tell that you are an actor playing an attorney?  Wow that is so cool!  What is the character you will be playing and can you tell use the title of what you are appearing in? BTW, how might a I get your autograph in case you become famous.
