got a call last week at my job. the guy said he would serve papers at my employment, take my car, take me court and being a senior citizen, I almost had a heart attatck. I even offered to work with him but he insisted on my banking information. I almost gave it to him but glad I didn't. they have called people in my neighborhood, calls, calls, calls at my home and place of employment. It is one thing to collect a debt, one thing to work with people but unacceptable to harrass family, make threats, and cause severe health problems. something needss to be done about these collection agencies.

Just got a call at work from my underage son that he needs to three-way a call with a man who just called his phone to let him know that I have a civil claim being filed agaist me. My son was very upset as this man insisted that if I don't respond within 3 hours, he will be moving forward with a court order. In this day and age, what an ethical and an unscrupulous act! Shame, shame, shame... low down dirty shame!

I received a call from 713-359-9052; a male identified himself as Michael Johnson, he stated he was a process server and was trying to serve papers. He went on to say he would give me two hours to call 855-384-5933 and provided a case number. I asked him what it was in regards to and he said he couldn't tell me so I hung up on him after advising him he was not to call the number anymore.
For the record, a process server does not:
Call you to ask you where you are; they have your address.
Give you a phone number to call in a set amount of time so you can avoid being served.
Ask for the information pertaining to the "legal matter" to be mailed to you; if it is a true and genuine legal matter, they will ALREADY have this information and will not need you to provide it to them.
If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:
?Ask the caller for his name, company, street address, and telephone number. Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." The notice must include the amount of the debt, the name of the creditor you owe, and your rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, do not pay! Paying a fake debt collector will not always make them go away. They may make up another debt to try to get more money from you.
?Stop speaking with the caller. If you have the caller's address, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.
?Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know whom you're dealing with. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft ? charging your existing credit cards, opening new credit card, checking, or savings accounts, writing fraudulent checks, or taking out loans in your name.
?Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate ? but you think the collector may not be ? contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.
?Report the call. Contact the FTC and your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers. Many states have their own debt collection laws in addition to the federal FDCPA. Your Attorney General's office can help you determine your rights under your state's law.
