Fine.   Now.  How about a physical address?  How about the official name of the business?  Who is this Mark person?  Who exactly , does he work for?  Give us something we can look up on Google street view and New York public records.

My suspicion is that you're just shilling for a another kitchen-table debt scammer in a run-down area of small-town Cheapside, in New York state.  

You had to make a "small payment" in advance.  Right.   I'm sure that was legal.   Mark "gladly" reassured you?  I'm sure he did, if he felt you were falling for his scam.  

But.  

I could be wrong.

Phone tree???  Really. I bet not one person on this post ever received any kind of letter of validation about these so called debts. What idiot would believe you.  Nice try shill. Illegal one at that. Roc asset solutions will be shut down

LiAr liar pants on fire

Becarefull roc a** solution is big scammers do not pay any money to these crocks. 855-821-0275 and 866-949- 6202 +more numbers when you recived any kind numbers  please check on your computer then see about them please please don't pay any your money to these  kinds crocks. JUST REPORT TO FBI AND POLICE. TO TAKE CARE THESE KINDS  BASTERS.
DO NOT SCARE FROM THESE KINDS CLOWNS.  Please  take care your money your hard earning money.

We received a call first from (866)949-6202 stating that they are planning on serving me papers for a court date three days after I received the call. They did say they needed some kind of payment before that day or pay a small fee on or before that day and set up a payment plan. I didn't believe at first. I looked up the number and got all your comments. I also looked up the website they provided and it looked suspicious and very very unfinished. I told them do not run my information because I believe this is a scam based on what I have read. Despite my uncertainty, a gentleman named Mark, the supervisor, gladly reassured me and told me to call the institution where I have my debt. Provided me with the number to call and told me to call back to let him know what they said. I reluctantly agreed. Though I was hesitant and almost certain it was a scam, I then called my institution where I have my debt, they forwarded me to an "Admin Recovery" then to another agency who then told me that they sold my case to Regency One and provided the number (855)821-0275 which so happened to be Mark.

Mark agreed that he had no problem with my curiosity, my doubts, and my uncertainty due to the many scams that are out there. He clarified 4 things: 1. If the collection agency can not verify your information (where your debt if from, the date, and your account number, you should be careful. 2. If they want the payment THAT DAY and will not try to restitute the situation by payment plans on another day or make a schedule that is appropriate for you, then you can be insecure. 3. If you can not verify from you ORIGINAL institution that it was "sold" or "handed to" this SPECIFIC NUMBER, then do be weary. 4. If you can not speak to the supervisor or manager CALMLY to get your information and they can not provide you with a license number or the original institution name, DO NOT give them any information.

Like I said, I went through the phone "tree", so to speak, and ended up back in Mark's office.  So I will and can verify, that is number IS an actual number with an actual debt collector.

Of course its B.S. They have been calling me off and on for about a year. Just hang up on them its a scam trust me. They never show up. I dare them! Its their scare tactic.

Is it real??? Did you read any comments before yours??????????  Of course it is a scam!!!!!  You can only be served in writing - not by a threatening phone call.

Someone called me In private number, left a message saying to call this 855 number because with claim number 210360 and they will file against me tomorrow, and to call them if I had any questions, I called back and they told me that it was from a debt collector and that I had to pay 400 right then or ill get served... im scared! Is this real??

Oh! You mean like you are right now? Plus, why would I want to pay foreign criminals trying to extort Americans to pay on fake loans?

Here's a thought...spend more time WORKING and actually paying your bills and less on websites bitching and you wouldn't have to worry about these jokers that call you!! Crazy, I know!!

Yeah its B.S. Don't worry about it.

Some 214 number is calling me then it sounds like a recording leaving a voicemail saying I need to call 8558210275 and that they will be at my residency On Monday between 8-12 that ill need to sign some papers bout some legal matter??

This number is calling family members of mine. I have no idea what is going on. They need to stop harassing.

Correct: A REAL debt collector knows your name, address, and phone number. They called you, right? Never give out personal information on a call you did not make. They want to confirm? Ask them what they've got & you'll let them know - what you know is that they are foreign extortionists, trying to scam Americans on fake loans. remember, law cases are a matter of public record. they say they're suing you? Look it up on your City, State web site. Or just call the Government (using a number YOU got, not given).

uhmm. thank you for all your comments; however, I want to say that if they really gona take you court, why do they have to verify your information? why do they have to verify your name and address or call you 1million times to get to you? aren't they supposed to have your name and address and all information? why bother then. They keep calling me from many different numbers, but I never answer the phone, so who cares.

If someone really, really, got suit and have lost the case. simply say the name of the company and county/state you were taken in along with the date. Many people would appreciate your input, only if they find that you were really telling the truth. thank you

Yeah its B.S. Don't get scared. They threaten to show up with some legal papers that never come. I hang up in their faces.

Now the scammers think by poisoning our posts they can trick us. Yeah whatever fraudsters. What I think is also funny here is they have used multiple numbers, for a call back and none of those posts indicate anyone has been served. Just this one. Also, why in the Eff would a process server give a rats a** about calling you, to supposedly "Help you out first?" They'd just show up un-announced and serve you. They wouldn't care a thing about trying to help us if it was true. I record the call and save the VM's each time they call so I dare you to try something fradusters. LOL

Gabrielle, don't be scared.  They are scams and meant to scare you.  Block the number if you can.  I don't answer calls I don't know.  Create a "dummy" contact on your cell phone and add this number to it.  When you see the name come up, ignore it.  These are awful people.  I've had calls from Christopher Bates, Mark Murphy, and Jim McKinley.  It's all the same person.

look at this another low life lying sleazy idiotic debt collector posting his or her shill,i guess this fool isnt making any money so they post there stupid low life lies on here...duh i got served,, yeah right
PEOPLE... completely ignore this IDIOT  remember he earns 7.00 an hour and he gets 15% of what ever he collects,and there collections is in the garbage so now he comes on here and post his lies about being served
i bet when this FOOL goes home debt collectors are calling for money

REMEMBER FAMILY FIRST,DEBT COLLECTORS LAST

I've spun my wheels searching for information on this, and from the little I can find, the name "Marshall Cooper" is frequently used by the Buffalo Boiler Room crowd.  In particular, the name has been used on a number of occasions by folks working for "Portfolio Recovery Group, LLC

You can let a summons and FDCPA complaint do your smacking. You have plenty of violation ammo.

Several search vectors on variants of "ROC" and "ROC Group" all went down blind alleys today. Jennifer's somewhat messy input led to intel on a couple other number threads and a published legal notice from February 2011.

The thread comments consistently describe thuglike collection behavior. 4230a Ridge Lea Road in Amherst NY is home to Compaq Solutions LLC. The Secretary of State was listed as its registered agent. This does not mean ROC equals Compaq, but a scofflaw collection agency adopting shifty aliases is not unusual.

If the above connection proves solid, alert readers know what I'll write next. We're not dealing with another South Asian faker. Everyone being terrorized by these clowns has *two* U.S. addresses to hit with demand letters and lawsuit papers, and we know at least one of them will not bounce mail or hide from process service. Now for a word from our sponsors .....

Whether you are called a debtor or some collector thinks you can flush one out, you have rights and options. Many are simple to exercise if you only learn how. You are granted control of how you are contacted, the right to dispute debt claims, and the means to sue violators at low cost. The FTC and the CFPB can start you on your homework. See also if your state laws grant additional or stronger rights.

Okay, who "served you a court date"?  An officer, a mail person, a courier or someone else?

What type of court date?  A criminal, civil, appellate, or small claims?

What is the name of the company that filed these things against you?  They will be list under "plaintiff" in the paperwork you claim to have recieved

i guess ill find out...

No you were not. The last time I checked foreign criminals have no legal jurisdiction in the USA.
