I received a call from " unknown" #  stating they were looking for my granddaughter and I was listed as a reference stating a formal complaint was made against her and that this a notice that she has been officially served. The person on the other line said her name was  Angela White and she left a phone number and a case number for my granddaughter to call. When I called the number a very rude male answered the phone and wanted my address and stated that I would be served a Summons for court and in turn I needed to give it to my granddaughter.  He said she had to pay immediately or she was going to court. My granddaughter knows nothing about what he is talking about.  Funny thing is my grandson just went through this and actually gave them his credit card number but them cancelled his card. The other similarity is that they both had taken out cash advances around the time they say this bill occurred.  I am wondering if the cash advance place is involved somehow

I got the same type of threat that I was going to be a summons the worst thing about it was if you can't get a payment through a prepaid card within 2 hrs we will see you in court. Also called a few family members because they couldn't reach me.embarrassed

I received a call at work. A man asking to speak to a supervisor because he was going to serve Elizabeth papers today. Being the supervisor I got the phone call. He told me to call 844-827-6617 the legal department and obtain a release order form. After googling the number and the company I called the number. I was put through to James Mathis of RH group. I am being served for Fraudulent use of a check in the intent to defraud a financial lending institution from 2008. I took down the information and told the man I would give the information to my lawyer to handle. James told me I needed to handle it now or Dallas Constables would be serving me. I spoke to my lawyer and called back to get the company's address. James answered the phone and refused to give me the address. He told me to fax the information then refused to give me the fax number. I have been at work all day and have not been served.

I just got a call this morning from a blocked number that said he was a process server and was on his way to me so I needed to call 844 827 6617 immediately and he gave me a case number. I called it and it was RH Group. She said that I was being taken to court for $575. She mentioned a bank that I do not have and had all my personal information. I asked her to email or mail me the physical docs and she refused unless I agreed to pay and make arrangements. Of course I refused and got online to see who RH Group was. Is this the same scam as above??? The number that called me was a blocked number and the guy sounded like he was on a cell. When I called the 844 number she sounded like she was on a cell too and kept cutting in and out. Is this for real?

Has anyone contacted a lawyer yet? Has anyone considered a class action lawsuit? I just got back from vacation, so my plan starting tomorrow is taking the steps to sue them for each and every illegal act they have committed against me, and I encourage everyone to do this same.

This is harassment, a major violation of privacy, identity theft , and slander not to even mention the illegal debt collecting practices... and I'm sure that is just the tip of the iceberg.  

You say a bocked number is a scam lmao. Start paying your bills. If people stopped taking out payday loans. Got off their lazy butts and off wellfare and unemployment these so called scammers woukd not be needed. To all of the lazy people in the us get off your butt and WORK

I keep getting calls from this ih group allvery

Wow..I cant believe this, I got a phone call about a month ago from RH Group, some lady named Kasey told me I had a bad check in 2008, and she also told me there was a warrant downtown for my arrest, and a detective was looking for me. She called my neighbors, she even called my sister who lives in Texas, and told them I was wanted for writing bad checks. She told me I owed 680 dolkars, and if I didn't pay I would be arrested, so reluctantly I payed half upfront and sent a payment in 2 weeks later in the amount of 153 dollars, I wishI would have Googled them before I made a payment, they have a brw number now, its 1877 309 3785, be warned if you recieve a phone call from them its a scam.

I too just received one of these calls he was very rude and told me that I had to resolve the issue today. His name was also corey and his ext 301 the number they are using now is 1-855-332-2985

Received call this morning from representative from RH Group - return number is 877-309-2785.   Gave a case #230771=9346.    Stated it was for one of our sons who had committed check fraud, attempt to defraud a bank and breech of contract.   Said they had tried to serve summons to son, but he kept evading them.   SO they are coming to our home to serve his father.   He is 71 years old, having health problems and this really upset him.   Our son says he has no knowledge of this but supposedly the state police will be at our home in the next 30 minutes to serve US, if they do not hear from him immediately.   Fraud or not - we do not know.but after reading other posts - this very well could be fraudulent.  

I guess it's my turn ... I got this same call yesterday.  They even called my employer.  I could tell something was up because when I stated I have proof that I owe nothing they became irate.  Why would they begin to call on a debt that they state is 3 yrs old???

I fell for this scam because they had all my information and contacted family and friends they called my 90 year old ex mother inlaw this is horrible they said I owe something from Cash yes 700 they set up 6 payments of 123 I fell for it but after not receiving paperwork they said they were gonna send me I begin to think some not right I cx my card they will not get another dime out of me who do I report them to they are harrssing my family and ppl I haven't talk to in long time. I'm contacting my attorney as soon as possible.

Wow they got me to I'm changing my account as soon as possible. They said I owe 700 dollars make 6 payment arrangements for 123 dollar every payday. After not getting paperwork that they said they were gonna send me I thought some not right most places send u something this is ashame they call everybody that know you how they get their numbers I have no idea I'm reporting them to the police.

This group has called family my ex mother inlaw  my job they are harassing me and family members. I call them back I spoke with a mr Hendrix he said I owe 700 dollars on a old dept. also said I will be summons to court it i didn't pay it. Unfortunate I fell for it he told me he would be sending me and email concerning our call I found it funny I never got the email he also gave me an ext and when I call ext number it never worked. So I realize something not right. I call my bank and cancel my card this was a learning experience for me never give out information if they can't prove who they are I'm gonna contact my attorney and report them for rudeness and harassing my 90 year old ex mother inlaw flooding her with calls looking for me someone need to put a stop to this it's out of control.

IDIOTS that have no life an in total need to harass people!!!!!!!!!!

They are a FAKE!!!!!!!!!!

For the last 3 weeks, I have received the same phone calls.  I work in a public school and not only my own personal phone but many others throughout the school have received calls about me! These calls are coming in by the teens at any given time with a very rude man behind the phone making threatening remarks and using up very important phone lines!  I also called the number that was left on one of the many voicemails and was told that unless I gave my social and address that I could not be given any information. Because I was the victim of identity theft 2 years ago, I am VERY reluctant  to do this in any regard, I  was also told that my co workers were not going to be respected with their work day because I was irresponsible and could not handle my business..... I have never been given a clear reason as to why the phone calls were necessary only that there is a process server ready to serve me.  I along with many others have invited this person with open arms to serve away and to this day there is nothing!!!! Unfortunately it is taking a little longer to track since this company practices using restricted numbers when calling and legit numbers (f you wanna call it that) the number given when asking you to return a call.... but we are close to busting and based on the amount of calls to my employer alone just today, it is considered a federal crime of harassment so hopefully, I will be the face of the TAKE DOWN...... signed, vigilant and not giving up until these MFers are handcuffed and whisked away in their own glory!!!!!!

I do not owe them anything and they called me at work and embarassed me!  They m ust be stopped.

The EXACT same thing happened to me just now except they called the school I work at and completely embarassed me!  When I called back they threatened me as well.  I just want to amke sure that they are not actually processing a "summons" and that I don't need to call a lawyer!

I got a voice message from a Scott King, stating that his company had received a notification and summons for me and that I should contact 877-306-1807 and that I had now been "officially notified". I called them and they stated that I had a debt of $515 for CashYes.com and that a summons was sent out today but that I could still arrange for this to be taken care of. When I informed them that not only had I paid CashYes way more than the $550 that I had borrowed but that it was an illegal payday lender from Belize and that I know this is a scam. They remained professional on the phone and tried to talk me over but I just hung up on them. Waste of time and space.

I believe it was mentioned before, but again, who calls to tell people that they are going to be served?? In my local area the police have actually been contacted about this group several times in regards to their scare tactics and threatening manner.  The police stated that it seems to be a scam to get with the appropriate authorities.

Since it seems that there is little that the authorities can do, maybe we should start calling all of his friends, relatives, work and neighbors..it is so embaressing to be harrassed when the debt is not even valid... even if it were, their tactics are disgusting.  DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR INFORMATION TO THEM... they are trying to collect on paid pay day loans.  Follow the suggestions made above and report them to everyone that you can.

They are using 877-306-1807 now. Been calling somebody I have no contact with whatsoever. Finally called them and talked to Eric, he wouldn't give me his last name or the mailing address for the "safety of their employees." I got the usual line from them everybody else seems to be getting. He said they were a arbitration company, I think they are skirting the FDCPA by saying that instead of being debt collectors. He said that the people that called from the above number wasn't them but was a process server hired by the lender to server me. He said I would be sued for the debt for 3 times the amount he could settle it for right now. He told me the name of the company was R.H. (Respect and Honor, his words) Seems to be something they are lacking.

This is has happened numerous times, I have reported it to the Feds/FBI (they have a whole page of information on this scam) People whom I know through my children, received a BLOCKED call with a threatening message in regards to being "SERVED".  Troy Matthews with the RH GROUP, stated that he was looking for me (privacy law violation), had threatening tone with them, then he stated he would SERVE them a paper they had to sign saying they didn't know me.  Left a number 1-877-306-1807 and to reference a case number.  At end of phone call he stated consider you have been notified, loudly and in a threatening manner.  Because we have found very negative information on this we have immediately contacted authorities and bank as this is what the FBI suggested.  Please file a complaint so they have more information to shut this down.  This is an illegal form of collection and a scam.

Glenn T. Lista is the head crook of this criminal operation....they are committing a federal crime by impersonating federal personnel and committing extortion by coercing victims into paying them money through fake threats....reports these idiots....your attorney, police, FBI, IC3, CFPB, consumer protection bureau, BBB, anywhere you can....two can play at this game.

I just received a call from a number labeled "No Caller ID". He said he was a "locator" who passed on a telephone number, 1-855-332-3044 and a case number. What company is this, you ask? The RH Group. I'v been hurt since Dec 24, 2012. I fell behind. I know who I owe. I spoke to all of them explaining my situation. I send what I can. The use of unnecessary collection tactics baffles me!!!! I mean Really!!! A person locator?! But here is the reason I'm pissed,YOU ALREADY KNOW WHERE I'M LOCATED! YOU ALREADY HAVE MY DAMN NUMBER. BOTH OF THEM, HOME AND CELL SO WHY HIRE SOMEONE TO "LOCATE" ME! YOU EVEN KNOW WHERE I WORK... WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO, SCARE THE DAMN MONEY OUT OF ME?! THIS JUST MAKES ME DROP YOU TO THE BOTTOM, OF THE DAMN LIST.
