>> Unfortunately my husband (83 years old) gave them remote access to our computer and signed 2 electronic checks in the amount of $2,400.

You really should invest in call-blocking device for your landline.  It will be money well-spent.  They cost between $60-100.  With some call-blockers, only callers using numbers you input into the device will be allowed to call you.  All other calls will be blocked.

This is a multiple scam operation.  They purported to be a company called www.smarttechsecuritysolutions.com.  Said our computer was infected with malware/trojan horse...said they were referred by Comcast.  Unfortunately my husband (83 years old) gave them remote access to our computer and signed 2 electronic checks in the amount of $2,400.  I closed bank account and thus they were not able to cash electronic checks and had our computer operating system erased and re-installed.  Everyone who answered phone at that number had an Indian accent and said they were a service center located in India.

They also call from a Canadian number at times, located in Ontario Canada with name of Dilligent Solut.  The number is associated with the fraudsters.

This company called my husband at work, got him upset stating fraud and bounced checks over state line? WOW....ALERT DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

after confronting them about the scam, and taking my hard earned money, and cursing them out they still want to talk and call my phone! i work for the sheriffs office and they clearly stated that this was a scam .. I researched the company that debited the card and it doesn't exist. What made me suspect fraud is they took the payment 2 days earlier than it was expected and they took more money!!! The hefer even tried to be nice !!!! they will try and trick you.! they are full of s***... i cancelled the card and filed a fraud on the card.. These people are so convincing they wanna set up payment plans and everything to take your money!!! I asked them to send me a copy of what I owe to my email, they sent me a copy of the payment plan.. wth??? the company logo is not valid..it doesn't even exist!! I stalked them like they stalk me and I called to ask them for an address they argued with me trying to find out what i wanted it for ... any company that is legit will not mind giving you an address.. or will not argue with you about it.. After i asked for the chick who made this payment plan, she has 3 names kimberly, amanda scott, and april moore they are all the same person  !!  Do not let these mofos take your hard earned money !!! If an unknown number calls your number do not answer or give them no info !! if its an unknown number it is most likely a SCAM!!!  a true bill collector will start by saying "THIS CALL MAY BE MONITORED FOR QUALITY PURPOSES" ! They aren't even credited by the better business bureau!!!!You dont hear any of that !!! I hate when you work for everything and someone tries to take it from you!!!! Please people dont let this happen to you please!

I just googled Firestone Legal Services...nothing found.  No surprise there.  >:-|

Victoria Simmons is going to verify my work and and home address.  Threatening to call my family and references and said I was officially notified.  Gave a reference number.  I called the number 855-619-0700 and asked for the name of the company.  The guy said, Firestone Legal Services.  I then asked was it a process serving company or a law firm.  He said, yes, a process serving company.  Now, if they tell you that you can call the company back that is trying to sue you at 855-619-0700, then why would the company that is trying to sue you not be the company to answer the phone.  Instead, what I got was the process serving company.  So, you want me to call the process serving company, verify my information and then let you give me the information.  You can do nothing for me, not even verify a debt, but you give me your number instead of the creditor's number....and you are a process server that leaves threatening messages??  She sounded like a pompous a**.  Oh well, if I owe I will pay, but it will not be through some business called Firestone Legal Services.

Called me and said that my state issued id was going to be suspended, that I had missed a court date. HAHA.

These people started calling me last week and when I called them back they claim that they were trying to collect on some debt that I pd off over 6 months ago. Luckily I still have my paid in full letter and I forwarded it to them and told them to stop calling me. How about no sooner had I hung up from one rep from that company another called me 5times that day threatening me saying they were going to send uniformed officers to pickme up!!! they are such a scam!!!! They have called me 5 times again this morning saying the same thing!!! They need to be stopped!!! I have already filed a complaint against them.

How do these people figure that they can call your place of employment after you have told them to stop and have informed them that you have an attorney and to contact them, I say this is something the governement needs to look into and stop immediately, they can figure out that Sadaam is hiding in a hole, but they can not figure out how to stop people from stealing peoples information and trying to scam them.

I got a call from 980-321-9500 Mr. stewart with FIRESTONE SOLUTIONS.... and he said that he was calling on behalf of his client BMG and he need a statement from me before the went ahead and processed a summons --- he didn't even have my location correct (the city were I live) and he tried to fast talk me I had to ask him to back up and repeat slowly.... I asked him to verify his name and a call back number -- 18556190700 ext 502 .... I told him that my attorney will contact him .... Who are these people who is BMG!!!! ???? how did he get my work number ...(new job)

Have all your friends and yourself just keep calling thier phone number over and over and over

I received a phone call from this company claiming that they r a law firm and that they are trying to collect on a debt from a payday loan that I've already paid off and when i told them hat i was going to fax over some information they kept going on and on and telling me that it has not been paid and that they r still going to have me served at my job and I knew that they were a scam cause they claim to work for the court house and i called the court house and they have no knowledge of these people. Claiming that I'm going to jail and they will have be served with 2 uniformed officers which is a LIE!!!!!!

Just got a call from Thomas Crown saying he was a court appointed attorney. Asked to speak with my wife, stated he was going to serve her a subpoena for a check that she supposedly wrote in 2010? He also contacted a friend of ours and threatened him with a subpoena as well, stating to him the he was a court appointed attorney and trying to reach my wife. Would not give her any information as to who he was collecting this check for???? then became rude as hell...I have never heard of a " court appointed attorney"acting in this manner. She tells him that she would talk to me and try and figure out what "check" was written in 2010 for this huge amount. He than began to tell her she needed to call him back within the hour but wouldn't give her a contact number to call back. Sounds very fishy to me.....the number he called from was 253-272-2053.....

Got a call from this number, they claimed they were from my old bank Chase JP Morgan and they needed a statement from me for an ongoing investigation regarding my account. This account has been closed for nearly three years now and I have no idea how they got my information, but I called Chase and reported this number to them. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION!!! It is a super scam, and don't bank with Chase either, how the heck did this scam company get my info?!!?

called my job and said that his gonna tell evrybody at my job that i dont pay my debt

I recieved calls from this guy JD Morgan 2 years ago. I told him to stop scamming the USA. I never did get anything. JD Morgan sent me a message about 3 months ago on Facebook. I sent a message back saying I'm not falling for your scam. And if he messages me again I was going to get him for harrassment. Now today I get a message from JD Morgan that said. "I am a transvestite" I sent a message back that stated I am getting JD Morgan for harrassment. Grow Up and Get a life. He sent another message that said I can call him at 855-619-0700. I blocked JD Morgan. I wish they would get in trouble for scamming people but since they are probably in another country they won't.

they called me yesterday-  and i am scared as hell. - i know i haven't done anything ever fraud.  why- why- why

This number keep calling me!

I got a call from A 980-321-9500 number, said he's a local process sever (its a NC number, I'm in MI). I have to call today, he was pretty nasty and said I am to call Diane Jennings back at 855-619-0700 today or I will be served today. The number I am to call back is 855-619-0700 and speak to Diane Jennings.  The   company that they want me to call is Mitchell & Associates.  

Has anyone ever been served ?

I got the same call. I was laid off and they're still calling my work, and today someone else answered my hone phone and they (mr Williams) explained to the person answering my phone that they are a,process server and that there is a summons to be served upon me for check fraud and  something about no intention of paying a debt.  This guy called from a different number and was very nasty.

This is a SCAM! DO NOT ever give these people your credit card number. Tell them to send you proof of this debt to your home address(which they should have if it is a legit debt). SCAM SCAM SCAM! Do not give them money. They are using scare tatics to scam you out of cash. They need to provide you with a company name and adress and phone number. Any legit business would have no problem doing this. WISE UP! It's a scam!

Yes, I received a call from them (Nikki Bryan) at my work, my home, and now they call my mother-how they got the number I don't know. Said they too had a summons for me, they wore supposed to serve me a work, but never showed up. They want my address so they can serve me along with the sheriff, shouldn't they already have my address if they are going to serve me, if i own them something shouldn't they have all my info? ?Not just phone numbers...

call my sons job two times and told my sons BOSS that he was a police inspector morgan. told boss he needed to talk to my son about a a past due acct. and if he did not talk to him right there and now he was going to file charges on my son. the problem the bill was mine and not my son dearold jr.

Received a call from 855-619-0700...Thomas Crown....said I should expect a summons to be served to me at work or home...let this serve as notice...left a call back number 980-321-9500...would only give me the name of the so called company that was calling but no address...said it was not relevant...they wanted money but would not accept a mailed in payment....bull...nothing but a scam....so if you want to mess with him, give him a call...
