| FIGHTING BACK! 2013-08-24 19:12:23 Debt Collector |
There are complaints about them all over the internet for harassing people that do not owe the debt, threatening to arrest people for a debt, telling people the only way they'll stop calling is to pay "court costs" on an alleged suit they filed, etc. According to some of the MANY complaint pages and numbers they've called using, it seems they call about debts that are 5-10 years old, don't care if they were paid or not because they want money. There are people who have fallen for this, and stated that they paid, and are STILL waiting on getting the documentation of the debt from them. Of course, their story is that they sent it out ... yeah, right.
What's laughable is one page on their website that says they follow the law during collection attempts. OBVIOUSLY, NOT! THEY have an F rating with the FL BBB (see below).
By the way, it would seem to me that, IF you had a bad debt, it would show on your credit report (if still eligible to be reported). IF you do have a bad debt on your credit report, you might want to consult an attorney and/or the original creditor, rather than these folks who obviously could care less about the law. [I am NOT an attorney, nor do I profess to be one. I am NOT dispensing ?legal advice,? simply giving my opinion!]
IF they were calling about a legitimate debt, they would NOT be calling to see if you'll be home all day on certain day to "deliver legal documents" or "subpeona." A legit collector CANNOT discuss your bill with anyone else OR threaten to arrest you and/or send you to debtor's prison, etc.
Make yourself aware of the rules in the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT.--http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/fdcpact.shtm
Here is more info on it from the FTC Consumer information -- http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection
It's glaringly apparent that these folks enjoy breaking most of these rules.
Hope this helps someone!

It may not help, but it certainly wouldn?t hurt to fill the mailboxes at the White House with letters about these folks. If the President wants to get involved with courts and everyday peoples? lives, then he needs to get involved in THIS!

SUGGESTIONS (again, I am NOT an attorney and am NOT attempting to dispense legal advice. These are my PERSONAL suggestions)
1-IF you decide to answer one of their MANY calls from about 50 different telephone numbers (no, I?m not exaggerating), give them NO INFORMATION. In fact, YOU MAKE THEM ANSWER QUESTIONS, and if they don?t, hang up on them! I don?t know anything about spoofing/masking numbers, but there have been comments that they are VOIP?ing the majority of the numbers they?re calling from. I do not doubt this, as a person said the number showing on her phone was that of the local police department.
2-Keep a running log of the date, time, telephone number, person calling and note of conversation to file with your complaints. (Or, try to record the call, BUT they usually hang up when they?re told they?re being recorded. ROFLOL, now how many LEGITIMATE collection agencies would do that? NONE that I?ve ever heard!
3-Look up your state?s Statute of Limitations on debts that can be pursued in court (that you can still be sued for). It seems to vary from 3-15years.
4-DO NOT allow them to intimidate or frighten you. These idiots have even called the numbers attorneys, police officers, etc. with this scam. Intelligent, they are NOT.
USUAL PLOYS:
1-call friends, neighbors, relatives, employers, and you trying to intimidate you into paying JUST to make the calls stop (but, from looking online, they don?t stop?they just demand more). ? Ask these folks to also keep a log of the calls, give them this internet page to check. Ask them to do a search for ANY of these company names. They?ll soon realize it that these people are nothing but SCAMMERS.
2-??have important legal documents (or summons) to deliver, will you be home ---(day) from 8:30 to 4:30 to accept it??
3-?There?s a warrant out for your arrest UNLESS you send us $xxx TODAY? -- they seem to prefer asking for the ?Green Dot? prepaid card and want you to call back with the numbers on back ? harder to trace where to $ goes, apparently.
COMPANY NAMES:
Goodman and Stern LLC, aka GSA Recovery, aka GSA Management Orlando, FL ? AND/OR ? EIESNBURG, WHITMAN & ASSOCIATES LLC, Rubin and Weizman, LLC.
TYPE OF CALL:

If you come back on this page, PLEASE file complaint with the agencies listed in my other post.
Also, do you have ANY info on the "Billing 360" company that you can provide, so I can try to get info on them?
Thanks!

Thanks!
| FIGHTING BACK! 2013-08-21 15:12:01 Debt Collector |
If anyone gets more info on the "Billing 360," please post!
There are complaints about them all over the internet for harassing people that do not owe the debt, threatening to arrest people for a debt, telling people the only way they'll stop calling is to pay "court costs" on an alleged suit they filed, etc. According to some of the MANY complaint pages and numbers they've called using, it seems they call about debts that are 5-10 years old, don't care if they were paid or not because they want money. There are people who have fallen for this, and stated that they paid, and are STILL waiting on getting the documentation of the debt from them. Of course, their story is that they sent it out ... yeah, right.
What's laughable is one page on their website that says they follow the law during collection attempts. OBVIOUSLY, NOT! THEY have an F rating with the FL BBB (see below).
By the way, it would seem to me that, IF you had a bad debt, it would show on your credit report (if still eligible to be reported). IF you do have a bad debt on your credit report, you might want to consult an attorney and/or the original creditor, rather than these folks who obviously could care less about the law. [I am NOT an attorney, nor do I profess to be one. I am NOT dispensing ?legal advice,? simply giving my opinion!]
IF they were calling about a legitimate debt, they would NOT be calling to see if you'll be home all day on certain day to "deliver legal documents" or "subpeona." A legit collector CANNOT discuss your bill with anyone else OR threaten to arrest you and/or send you to debtor's prison, etc.
Make yourself aware of the rules in the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT.--http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/fdcpact.shtm
Here is more info on it from the FTC Consumer information -- http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection
It's glaringly apparent that these folks enjoy breaking most of these rules.
Hope this helps someone!

[NOTE: As far as I?m personally concerned, the behavior of these companies IS a form of domestic terrorism, although the FBI may not.]
It also occurs to me that, particularly on the GreenDot/Prepaid card ?payments,? since they are apparently difficult to trace, I seriously doubt they are reporting these funds on their income taxes === tax evasion. (That?s the way they finally got Al Capone!) The IRS has forms for reporting suspected evasion, and even a reward form you can complete for if you help them catch the folks!
http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/How-Do-You-Rep ... aud-Activity%3F (I?m 99% sure it?s the Form 3949-A that you?ll want to complete if you?ve been swindled by these folks.) It looks like Form 211 is to claim a reward!

It may not help, but it certainly wouldn?t hurt to fill the mailboxes at the White House with letters about these folks. If the President wants to get involved with courts and everyday peoples? lives, then he needs to get involved in THIS!

SUGGESTIONS (again, I am NOT an attorney and am NOT attempting to dispense legal advice. These are my PERSONAL suggestions)
1-IF you decide to answer one of their MANY calls from about 50 different telephone numbers (no, I?m not exaggerating), give them NO INFORMATION. In fact, YOU MAKE THEM ANSWER QUESTIONS, and if they don?t, hang up on them! I don?t know anything about spoofing/masking numbers, but there have been comments that they are VOIP?ing the majority of the numbers they?re calling from. I do not doubt this, as a person said the number showing on her phone was that of the local police department.
2-Keep a running log of the date, time, telephone number, person calling and note of conversation to file with your complaints. (Or, try to record the call, BUT they usually hang up when they?re told they?re being recorded. ROFLOL, now how many LEGITIMATE collection agencies would do that? NONE that I?ve ever heard!
3-Look up your state?s Statute of Limitations on debts that can be pursued in court (that you can still be sued for). It seems to vary from 3-15years.
4-DO NOT allow them to intimidate or frighten you. These idiots have even called the numbers attorneys, police officers, etc. with this scam. Intelligent, they are NOT.
USUAL PLOYS:
1-call friends, neighbors, relatives, employers, and you trying to intimidate you into paying JUST to make the calls stop (but, from looking online, they don?t stop?they just demand more). ? Ask these folks to also keep a log of the calls, give them this internet page to check. Ask them to do a search for ANY of these company names. They?ll soon realize it that these people are nothing but SCAMMERS.
2-??have important legal documents (or summons) to deliver, will you be home ---(day) from 8:30 to 4:30 to accept it??
3-?There?s a warrant out for your arrest UNLESS you send us $xxx TODAY? -- they seem to prefer asking for the ?Green Dot? prepaid card and want you to call back with the numbers on back ? harder to trace where to $ goes, apparently.

2-Keep a running log of the date, time, telephone number, person calling and note of conversation to file with your complaints. (Or, try to record the call, BUT they usually hang up when they?re told they?re being recorded. ROFLOL, now how many LEGITIMATE collection agencies would do that? NONE that I?ve ever heard!
3-Look up your state?s Statute of Limitations on debts that can be pursued in court (that you can still be sued for). It seems to vary from 3-15years.
4-DO NOT allow them to intimidate or frighten you. These idiots have even called the numbers attorneys, police officers, etc. with this scam. Intelligent, they are NOT.
USUAL PLOYS:
1-call friends, neighbors, relatives, employers, and you trying to intimidate you into paying JUST to make the calls stop (but, from looking online, they don?t stop?they just demand more). ? Ask these folks to also keep a log of the calls, give them this internet page to check. Ask them to do a search for ANY of these company names. They?ll soon realize it that these people are nothing but SCAMMERS.
2-??have important legal documents (or summons) to deliver, will you be home ---(day) from 8:30 to 4:30 to accept it??
3-?There?s a warrant out for your arrest UNLESS you send us $xxx TODAY? -- they seem to prefer asking for the ?Green Dot? prepaid card and want you to call back with the numbers on back ? harder to trace where to $ goes, apparently.
COMPANY NAMES:
Goodman and Stern LLC, aka GSA Recovery, aka GSA Management Orlando, FL ? AND/OR ? EIESNBURG, WHITMAN & ASSOCIATES LLC, Rubin and Weizman, LLC.
TYPE OF CALL:
SCAM AND/OR EXTORTION BY A DISREPUTABLE LICENSED COLLECTION AGENCY
By the way, in case you haven?t seen it, complaining DOES help!

This company has been calling and does not give up. They changed the name to get money out of my account from GSA to Billing 360. This is also a fradulent company. Unfortunately with them changing their name they got into my account and now I have to fight with the bank to get it back. So be very careful.
| DB 2013-06-10 15:36:50 Debt Collector |
The company's website is http://recoveryserviceagency.com/ . I have contacted the VA state attorney general's office as well as the Federal Trade commission in order to put a stop to their harassment. They are committing a CRIME when they threaten with legal action.

The call from numbers from Texas and Florida. The are fake debt collectors!!!!!
Consumers across the country report that they're getting telephone calls from people trying to collect on loans the consumers never received or on loans they did receive but for amounts they do not owe. Others are receiving calls from people seeking to recover on loans consumers received but where the creditors never authorized the callers to collect for them. So what's the story?
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, is warning consumers to be on the alert for scam artists posing as debt collectors. It may be hard to tell the difference between a legitimate debt collector and a fake one. Sometimes a fake collector may even have some of your personal information, like a bank account number. A caller may be a fake debt collector if he:
?is seeking payment on a debt for a loan you do not recognize;
?refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number;
?asks you for personal financial or sensitive information; or
?exerts high pressure to try to scare you into paying, such as threatening to have you arrested or to report you to a law enforcement agency.
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

Scammers posing as collection agents.Do not talk to them, and please don't give them any money. They will call again, from a different number. They are not the collection agency in Florida.

Received call telling me I would be getting a summons tomorrow to appear in court. Refused to provide any other info as my 'documents' were sealed? Original call out of Dallas,TX. Calls happen every day , twice a day. Spoke with 'Federal Division'. He claimed I received a PayDay Loan for $500 4/30/2008 and never paid it back. I was being sued by CashNet for $1478.16. Refused to provide info on CashNet even though I never received loan. He claimed to be an arbitrator, not a lawyer. Told me the lawyers wouldn't talk to me because they were suing me.

Have received two different phones calls within the last 2 weeks. one from Houston texas and one from dallas texas. They are calling my cell phone and now they are calling my sons cell phone asking for me. cashnet scam and supposed to have a paper delivered to me. Its all con artist.
| FS 2013-06-04 18:59:25 Debt Collector |
I just got a call from a TX number (214)6130847 giving me a claim number and wanting me to call (888)380-6522, Called and got a GSA Management voice mail to leave name and number and they will return my call when convenient. Wow. How do we stop the calls?
| Elspeth 2013-06-04 18:38:43 Unknown |
I wouldn't pay anything to them unless they prove that they bought the debt and you owe it to them. And also, if it's outwith the statute of limitations for collection in your state, they cannot sue you for recovery.
| DB 2013-06-04 18:18:13 Debt Collector |
My stepson received a call from these people today claiming that he was named in a criminal lawsuit. Of course, it was not for him but his biological father. I decided to look this number up to see if it was a scam - looks like it was.
| Stick 2013-06-04 16:39:08 Debt Collector |
Yeah, I get these several times a day, every day of the week. They use the name GSA because it sounds like the General Services Administration of the US Government. It's definitely a scam.
They just called me again, too, but didn't bother to leave a message this time. When they do, it's the same classic "Indian scam," where they read from a script, tell you you're going to be summoned to the "Courthouse of the State in New York," you're in debt for $X, and they "need you or your attorney of record to return the call." Then they wish you good luck.

Just received a call on my mother's line from someone saying that I was going to be summoned tomorrow. It is from phone number 188838 6522 with case no. I don't have ANY bills or payday loans. When I called, a voice message came on from GSA Management. I believe these are fradulent calls. I'll let you know if I am summoned. There is a process for any owed bills and calling to say they are going to issue a summons isn't one of them.

I have also been receiving calls from an individual claiming to be Daniel Watts from William Saunders and Associates. As seems to be the s.o.p. for this scandalous person he claimed to have papers to serve to me either at my residence or place of business. I was immediately suspicious as anyone who truly had papers tobserve me would have already had my address and would not give me the courtesy of a heads up. I traced the number he called from which was 888-262-0593 back to a cell phone whose service provider was Reliance Communication Ltd located in Delhi, India. Have also found instances of the alias Pat allen calling from this number. I have not yet been able to speak to anyone from this fraudulent entity but am looking forward to the conversation. :-)
| Cdubb 2013-05-31 03:02:56 Unknown |
Receiving these calls at work too they have a case # and say they have papers to serve me, they been saying that for over a year. I don't recieve any demand letters in the mail from them, that is suspicious to me. What they want is for me to pay this so called"payday loan debt" that I do not believe is mine with my debit card # over the phone, not gonna happen. 1-888-380-6522 is a fisher's #. If they sent a demand letter with their address and everything I would consider this a legiament debt collection agency. Maybe they will read this and take notes. I am trying to get them to at least stop callin work, the other comments on are helpful.

have received many calls for an employee with this as the return number, have told them multiple times not to call anymore.
| laverne 2013-05-29 23:04:34 Unknown |
this company has called relatives and said they are looking for my wife and they refere to her by her first name only.... when asked what her last name is they don't know it.... it is a scam..... they have called my phone like 20 times and i don't answer unless i know who it is... i have all the companies we use listed.... we have no past due debt as we pay cash and our house and car are free and clear except for the taxes which are up to date
| clf 2013-05-24 14:56:03 Unknown |
Keep on getting calls from 1-888-380-6522, telling me they have a civil case against me and will be serving me with papers. How do I stop these calls harassing me at home.
| wolf 2013-05-23 21:10:44 Unknown |
they are harassing my house for a person who forest live here...we just have the same unusual last name. important going to try reporting to public utilities commission. they claimed to be civil procedures division.
| AJ 2013-05-22 18:54:39 Debt Collector |
They also go by Civil Procedure Salavation.... Scammers all the way around. In some most cases you can report them to the BBB. As the previous person said- NEVER give your personal information to them. As far as them contacting family and friends- tell them to to let the scammer know they will be dealt with legally if they continue to harrass them and then hang up. Hope this info helps!
