Recd an automated vm on my cell from David Lewiston, Director of Claims at American Asset Recovery regarding ? Marilus Doyle ? Claim number 720842 - Need to call 855-820-4241 to resolve the issue.  Tried to dial the 855 # it asks you to hold, plays music, then cuts you off....  vm recd 3/18/13 at 3:22 pm

877-246-8829: Thomas Whittaker, Regional Arbitration Services, keeps calling my number looking for "Betty Ward".  I tried calling the 888-900-3120 number they left on the message:  Hanson & Associates, mailbox full.  ????  I even tried calling the 877-246-8829 and got the same Hanson & Associates, mailbox full.

These people are really getting on my nerves.  I am not Betty Ward and am tired of getting calls for someone who obviously gave out false information.  

How do we make them stop?

A friend of mine recieved the same message from a Brian Baxter @ 877-246-8829 ext 115, he stated that he was talking to the district attorney and that they were going to serve her papers at her job and that they were going to be suing her for a payday loan that she never even took out.  Stated it was Bahamas Marketing Group.  Any advice on how she can get her money back?  He told her she owed almost $3000 but he would settle it if she made a payment of $430, she told me she only paid him $200, that was all she had.  He was threatening her stating she would be arrested and she was about ti have criminal charges filed against her.

I received a message from a Mr. Brian Baxter @ 877-246-8829 extension 115 who is claiming to be working in arbitration but he never said the company name he was employeed by but he gave me the parent company name of Bahamas Marketing Group (supposedly pay day loan company) & Premier Co. (company hired before his company) to contact me to get the supposedly loan settled but I never received any type of communication from them. I was also told by Mr. Baxter to contact him in a day or two  even after I gave him my bankruptcy lawyers information.

I am also getting calls from this number stating i have a court date, I looked up the addres that they gave me for the court hearing and it was non exsisting LOL what a mess

Hey today they are Perkins law firm. lol  Boy I've gotten several different names, different law offices and new numbers.  Hey if you have a cell you can do a call block app for free.  The blocker is awesome it hangs up on them automatically, the new number slipped thru today and went to VM, but it won't tomorrow. lol Really?  A civil suit, then needing to verify it was me, etc etc.  If you were in a law suit, it would be mailed certified/signature required or delivered at your front door,  These poor people are trying to rip innocent people off and trying to scare them to suck them in.  This world is getting worse and worse.

I've been getting calls from these jerks for months. Does anyone have an address? I will not communicate with them via phone, I don't owe any past due bills and I want to see in writing what they say I 'supposedly' owe.

I keep getting Harrassing Phones while @ Work & @ Home.  They Keep lcalling back to back & leaving Detailed Messages as to the Nature of the Call, such as They  are taking Me to Court & that there is a pending Law Suit against Me & My SS# for something I have NO IDEA what it's in Regards too.  I thought this was against the LAW. I have not been served nor notify by My County in any way that there is such a thing pending against Me.  I just need for them to Stop Call My place of Employment as well as My Home with the Harrassing Phone Calls ....

I received a call from Stephano Gambino, arbitration agent, saying there is a civil suit filed because I am in contempt of a deposition dated Oct. 04, 2010. He needs an official statement before paperwork is filed in my county court where I will be served to appear. About 30 minutes later I get a fax from Debt Reolution Services askin my HR Dept. for employment verification. The top left hand corner is checked off "client ordered" and below it states New Loan/Mortgage, Divorce Settlement, or Child Support Recovery. None of these apply to me. I will not fill this out and send it back. There is no address on it either.

IF YOU ARE READING THIS BECAUSE YOU GOT A CALL FROM THESE SCAMMERS AND ARE WORKED UP INTO A NERVOUS TIZZY, PLEASE CALM DOWN NOW! YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. They are annoying yes, but 100% harmless. As a matter of fact, if they impersonated law enforcement in anyway, you can take THEM to court.
Anyway...
Got a call from some self-important tw*twaffle who said, "you are incontempt of a deposition from June 2009"  - talk about trying to throw around legal jargon!! That doesn't even make a lick of sense.
He must have had a mouth full of dog p*nises because I couldn't understand the "CASE NUMBER" ...
He also said he was SERVING ME with a civil suit - UM HELLO MORON, YOU CAN'T "SERVE" SOMEONE OVER THE PHONE. In the name of being confrontational and wanting to mess with these guys, I called back and asked for extension 107 (the one left on my voicemail) I talked to some joyless crotchwarmer named "Lisa". Before I gave my name, I explained the situation (unable to hear case number and needing something in writing, yada yada) and she goes, "FIRST OF ALL, WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?"  Wow! How professional.  No wonder you work as a collector in a cube farm that smells like burned coffee for $9.50 + "potential" commission that might just get you to $13 an hour.
I informed her that at this point it didn't matter and that I'll see them in h*ll before I ever pay one cent of that alleged debt.
I know a lot of people stumble on to this site because they got a call and are nervous wrecks but let me tell you with GREAT CERTAINTY nothing is going to happen to you!!! Tell them to stop calling and submit all correspondence in writing. They legally MUST if you ask them to under fair credit laws. They won't of course and more calls will = ILLEGAL so find a lawyer who will take your case and split your settlement 50/50 with you as his pay. There are tons taking on illegal debt collecting schemes because so many collectors are morons. I've already made $5000 off stupid collectors (what can I say, I was unemployed at the time, it worked out great... I had time on my hands and needed money!!)
THEY WILL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE!!!!!

No. This company is not a law firm, and violates the FDCPA and California Civil Code § 1788 over and over and over in a 3 minute phone call. My client was told they needed a 'Criminal Defense Attorney" when she said she was represented by our firm for a Ch.7. We may go after them for the numerous violations against the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

I can top these.  I actually got a letter.  Yep.  Saying it was from D.R.S (Debt Resolution Services) out of Canada! Really?  They have to go to Canada?  I have no idea what debt they mean, I just recently got my credit reports there is nothing on there with these people and nor have I applied for anything in like 5 years.  They said they are collecting from a B.M.G?  The only BMG I know of is the music place through the mail, you know like Columbia House?   I have not ordered anything from them either, especially not for $430.00 like this letter states.  I guess when you update your credit report and make sure all is good, it gets the creeps out there going.  I couldn't get my transunion and wonder if its been tampered with?  I sent the letter back to them stating I also gave my attorney a copy. lol How are you going to try and threaten someone about something you've never gotten?  What a bunch of scammers.  I wasn't born yesterday.

It never ends. If they cant get you on the phone, they will mail you a letter with the same threat. So please dont fall for it. Google the # you will see its the same jerks.

I was getting phone calls from this person also. But i disconnect my phone, because i was tired of the threats. Now i recieved a letter in the mail, trying to collect a debt. I google there phone # 877-246-8829 and i see that i am not the only one. If you get a letter in the mail please do not fall for it. Its a trap to get you, since they cant call you, they will try by sending you letters. The name of the person who send me this letter is Aprill Celano she states on the letter that she is a Legal Assistant--Debt Resolution Services. These people are trying to get money from us one way or another. Please be very careful. The economy is bad right now and there are many scammers around.

I just put them straight to voice mail on my phone so i only get a message left by them, then i delete message. F@#kK these ppl. They will burn in  well you know the rest. Do not pay these idiots a dime.

What nerve....to call n leave a message saying that a complaint has been filed against me.. well first off if i didn't get any thing in the mail, a court order, or anything, so unless I do then they are just tryin to scare me, right?  another one called a few months prior and said that if I don't pay a certain amount by a certain day that they were going to take further action and possible jail time ..so I call the local police station and here it was all a lie...

This is Debt Resolution Services, aka "Hansen & Associates," a slimy debt collector.

(877) 246-8829

Is nothing more than a collection agency for a payday loan (Ace, etc.)
Nothing to worry about.

"Hi, this message is solely intended for Justin Riley, this is Eugene calling from DRS. I was contacting you because you were used as a reference for Alex Bailey, and I need to have Alex give me a call. Please have Alex call me at 877-246-8829, and Alex's phone number is 016-2858."

New scam? I mean, this message doesn't make any sense! If you already know Alex's phone number, why don't you give him a call?! What the f*** kind of scam is this?!

I received the same type of calll on my cell phone and they called my HR department and when questioned by HR to much they got real ugly with my HR department then they call from other numbers claiming this is the first time they call and when I ask them to verify my info and send me something in the mail they give an address 300miles away where I lived 10 years ago.  and I never receive any info in the mail so once I offered to send them money thru western union and they refused stated you can only use bank information or a prepaid debt card that way they are able to say you authorized payment and they can't be located.

Yes I am getting the same calls from a Thomas Whittaker from Debt Resolution Services. Saying they have a claim against me. I let my lawyer know about this and am contacting the FTC. Thanks for the info! These ppl are ridiculous!

I am getting the same message.  I don't know who they are or what they want. I do know we have rights it''s called The Fair Debt Pratice Act.  It is against the law to call a person at their place of work if they can't receive phone calls, it against the law to harrass a person verberly on the phone. It is also against the law for them to decuss you account with someone other than you. You can report them to the Federal Trade Commission. I have been taken by a debt collection once before who was collecting a debt that didn't belong to them, thank god I was able to retrieve my money back.  I thank they are a scam.

2 different people called me back to back AT WORK.  The lady (Sierra Stevens or Stephens, not sure the last name spelling) and the guy was Thomas Whittaker.  She gave a script about a check...have NO IDEA what she's talking about because I only write checks to people I know.  He didn't say much but they both left the same phone number and the same case number...within 3 minutes of each other.  Is this legal?

I received a call from the same number telling me they are from the county municipal office (a county I haven't lived in for 11 years) and they received a civil complaint against me. Then they proceeded to tell me that I took out a payday loan using <3 relative's names>. Two of the relatives were my 8 years deceased parents. Another, was a sister I haven't seen or talked with for 7 years; none of them would I ever use for any kind of reference.

I laughed so hard that "Heidi" got mad and hung up. I called and told her that she was in violation of FTC law for posing as someone they aren't. She held firm to her story and hung up.

By the way, the so-called loan was bogus.

changed their name again. first they were hansen law firm, then Thomas Wittaker.  Now I got a call saying I have a court date from a so called arbitration company.  They hadn't called in a couple of months and now they are back.  Say they represent CashNet from a loan in Jan 2010.. Not my loan.  Have contacted CashNet

They called me a year ago as a collection agency for a payday loan I never took out.  Could not give me any information or proof.  I told them to stop calling me.  They started again, this time saying they are an arbitration office and said they are filing a civil complaint against me for check fraud!  They are so rude!  Just a scam scum operation.  I reported them to my state consumer complaint office and am going to do so again.

I have got the same # and the same debt collectors name,I have paid over 2,000 since Christmas fro this company. every time I think I have them paid its ANOTHER COMPANY CALLING>I BELIEVE THERE WATCHING THIS SIGHT> TRACE THIS BACK I AM BROKE NO MORE MONEY I HAVE FILED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS WITHN THE FTC> n If anyone has a solution please write

Yes...  


This is...  Check and Credit Services...  PRG...  The Law Offices of Sandra Law...  IRG...  DRG...  Regional Law Court...  

Same s***, different day...  and, or course...  different name.  What a bunch of low life losers.  When they were supposedly DRG and Associates I turned their information over to the AG of my state.  That office stated if they ever contact me again that this group of scum will find their way into court...  :)  Guess it is payback time...  Congrats for calling me one more you frickin losers...  GOODBYE!

"This message is meant solely for Kristen Genovac. Kristen, my name is April and I am trying to get in contact with you to give you notification of some civil complaints in your effect. I ask you or an attorney who represents you to get a statement in this regard. We can be reached at 877-246-8829. Your case number is 153681. It is imperative that we speak with you regarding this issue before I can mail some documents to you."

I have been getting these calls and messages about once a week for 3 YEARS. The kicker: I'm not Kristen, nor have I ever met a Kristen Genovac or whatever her name is! I've called back many times and explained this to them. Sometimes they're rude (a man once called me a "f****ng liar" and said I am acting as an accessory for saying I don't know this woman!) or sometimes they just immediately say they will remove me from the calling list. I then explain that I've been hearing that for years and I have yet to be removed, to which they respond that it is fixed this time.

The most recent time I called, the man asked me for my name. I told him there's no need for me to give my name, and he said there's nothing he could do without my name to prove I'm not Kristen. Uh, do you really think I'd be calling you back a million times trying to get my name off the list if I were actually Kristen? Part of me wants to pretend I'm her and pay the damn money for her so I can stop dealing with these idiots! Dear Kristen, pay your freakin' bills.

who that
