Got a call from them on my cell phone.  Been getting calls from various collectors looking for various people over the last few months.  Had this number for over a decade so it's obvious some shared/sold database out there has gotten screwed up.  I called them back and pressed them for the database service they are using so I can contact them directly and get the erroneous information removed but they would not divulge it.  Got transferred to a supervisor and he said he can't give me the info but would handle it for me with a call back to me to confirm it's been done.  Waiting on call back so we will see.

When the machine picked up caller hung up.

F*** you, Gary.

Most of you debtors had no intention on paying YOUR debt anyway. You could have worked something out with the first or second CA that follows your FDCPA, but you choose not to because everything else was more important. So good for you your getting harrassed now by these bottom feeders as you irresponsible people call them. I wish there were debtors prison to put all you bums in to learn your lesson on borrowing irresponsible. Imagine how the bank felt when they were waiting for there money back. Bunch of bullies you debtors are then when  you get hit back you cry like babies..FTC, FDCPA, ATTORNY GEN. Why dont you put some effort in pay off your debts and stop running to these sites for support.

NO DEBT = NO CALLS  
GENIUS ISNT IT!!!!

ps... they dont bother me anymore after what i told them lol.. they told me i owed money on a payday loan but they couldnt give me the correct amount the amount changed everytime, they wouldnt even give me the number to the correct loan place.. there so stupid...

hey mr white is a f****n retartd. dont let him scam you.. they scam me out of 45 dollars...

NO IT IS NOT LEGAL - Which means they cannot PROVE anyone owes any money. So they want to make you PANIC without them having to PROVE as required by LAW that you actually owe the debt,

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PROVE YOU DO NOT OWE - THEY HAVE TO PROVE YOU DO!



False statements. Debt collectors may not lie when they are trying to collect a debt. For example, they may not:
    falsely claim that you have committed a crime;
    
Debt collectors also are prohibited from saying that:
    you will be arrested if you don?t pay your debt;

From Federal Trade Commission Website ? FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT
Debt Collection FAQs: A Guide for Consumers
If you?re behind in paying your bills, or a creditor?s records mistakenly make it appear that you are, a debt collector may be contacting you.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation?s consumer protection agency, enforces the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), which prohibits debt collectors from using abusive, unfair, or deceptive practices to collect from you.
Under the FDCPA, a debt collector is someone who regularly collects debts owed to others. This includes collection agencies, lawyers who collect debts on a regular basis, and companies that buy delinquent debts and then try to collect them.
Here are some questions and answers about your rights under the Act.

What types of debts are covered?
The Act covers personal, family, and household debts, including money you owe on a personal credit card account, an auto loan, a medical bill, and your mortgage. The FDCPA doesn?t cover debts you incurred to run a business.

Can a debt collector contact me any time or any place?
No. A debt collector may not contact you at inconvenient times or places, such as before 8 in the morning or after 9 at night, unless you agree to it. And collectors may not contact you at work if they?re told (orally or in writing) that you?re not allowed to get calls there.

How can I stop a debt collector from contacting me?
If a collector contacts you about a debt, you may want to talk to them at least once to see if you can resolve the matter ? even if you don?t think you owe the debt, can?t repay it immediately, or think that the collector is contacting you by mistake. If you decide after contacting the debt collector that you don?t want the collector to contact you again, tell the collector ? in writing ? to stop contacting you. Here?s how to do that:
Make a copy of your letter. Send the original by certified mail, and pay for a ?return receipt? so you?ll be able to document what the collector received. Once the collector receives your letter, they may not contact you again, with two exceptions: a collector can contact you to tell you there will be no further contact or to let you know that they or the creditor intend to take a specific action, like filing a lawsuit. Sending such a letter to a debt collector you owe money to does not get rid of the debt, but it should stop the contact. The creditor or the debt collector still can sue you to collect the debt.

Can a debt collector contact anyone else about my debt?
If an attorney is representing you about the debt, the debt collector must contact the attorney, rather than you. If you don?t have an attorney, a collector may contact other people ? but only to find out your address, your home phone number, and where you work. Collectors usually are prohibited from contacting third parties more than once. Other than to obtain this location information about you, a debt collector generally is not permitted to discuss your debt with anyone other than you, your spouse, or your attorney.

What does the debt collector have to tell me about the debt?
Every collector must send you a written ?validation notice? telling you how much money you owe within five days after they first contact you. This notice also must include the name of the creditor to whom you owe the money, and how to proceed if you don?t think you owe the money.

Can a debt collector keep contacting me if I don?t think I owe any money?
If you send the debt collector a letter stating that you don?t owe any or all of the money, or asking for verification of the debt, that collector must stop contacting you. You have to send that letter within 30 days after you receive the validation notice. But a collector can begin contacting you again if it sends you written verification of the debt, like a copy of a bill for the amount you owe.

What practices are off limits for debt collectors?
Harassment. Debt collectors may not harass, oppress, or abuse you or any third parties they contact. For example, they may not:
    use threats of violence or harm;
    publish a list of names of people who refuse to pay their debts (but they can give this information to the credit reporting companies);
    use obscene or profane language; or
    repeatedly use the phone to annoy someone.

False statements. Debt collectors may not lie when they are trying to collect a debt. For example, they may not:
    falsely claim that they are attorneys or government representatives;
    falsely claim that you have committed a crime;
    falsely represent that they operate or work for a credit reporting company;
    misrepresent the amount you owe;
    indicate that papers they send you are legal forms if they aren?t; or
    indicate that papers they send to you aren?t legal forms if they are.

Debt collectors also are prohibited from saying that:
    you will be arrested if you don?t pay your debt;
    they?ll seize, garnish, attach, or sell your property or wages unless they are permitted by law to take the action and intend to do so; or
    legal action will be taken against you, if doing so would be illegal or if they don?t intend to take the action.

Debt collectors may not:
    give false credit information about you to anyone, including a credit reporting company;
    send you anything that looks like an official document from a court or government agency if it isn?t; or
    use a false company name.

Unfair practices. Debt collectors may not engage in unfair practices when they try to collect a debt. For example, they may not:
    try to collect any interest, fee, or other charge on top of the amount you owe unless the contract that created your debt ? or your state law ? allows the charge;
    deposit a post-dated check early;
    take or threaten to take your property unless it can be done legally; or
    contact you by postcard.

Can I control which debts my payments apply to?
Yes. If a debt collector is trying to collect more than one debt from you, the collector must apply any payment you make to the debt you select. Equally important, a debt collector may not apply a payment to a debt you don?t think you owe.

Can a debt collector garnish my bank account or my wages?
If you don?t pay a debt, a creditor or its debt collector generally can sue you to collect. If they win, the court will enter a judgment against you. The judgment states the amount of money you owe, and allows the creditor or collector to get a garnishment order against you, directing a third party, like your bank, to turn over funds from your account to pay the debt.
Wage garnishment happens when your employer withholds part of your compensation to pay your debts. Your wages usually can be garnished only as the result of a court order. Don?t ignore a lawsuit summons. If you do, you lose the opportunity to fight a wage garnishment.

Can federal benefits be garnished?
Many federal benefits are exempt from garnishment, including:
    Social Security Benefits
    Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Benefits
    Veterans? Benefits
    Civil Service and Federal Retirement and Disability Benefits
    Service Members? Pay
    Military Annuities and Survivors? Benefits
    Student Assistance
    Railroad Retirement Benefits
    Merchant Seamen Wages
    Longshoremen?s and Harbor Workers? Death and Disability Benefits
    Foreign Service Retirement and Disability Benefits
    Compensation for Injury, Death, or Detention of Employees of U.S. Contractors Outside the U.S.
    Federal Emergency Management Agency Federal Disaster Assistance
But federal benefits may be garnished under certain circumstances, including to pay delinquent taxes, alimony, child support, or student loans.

Do I have any recourse if I think a debt collector has violated the law?
You have the right to sue a collector in a state or federal court within one year from the date the law was violated. If you win, the judge can require the collector to pay you for any damages you can prove you suffered because of the illegal collection practices, like lost wages and medical bills. The judge can require the debt collector to pay you up to $1,000, even if you can?t prove that you suffered actual damages. You also can be reimbursed for your attorney?s fees and court costs. A group of people also may sue a debt collector as part of a class action lawsuit and recover money for damages up to $500,000, or one percent of the collector?s net worth, whichever amount is lower. Even if a debt collector violates the FDCPA in trying to collect a debt, the debt does not go away if you owe it.

What should I do if a debt collector sues me?
If a debt collector files a lawsuit against you to collect a debt, respond to the lawsuit, either personally or through your lawyer, by the date specified in the court papers to preserve your rights.

Where do I report a debt collector for an alleged violation?
Report any problems you have with a debt collector to your state Attorney General?s office (www.naag.org) and the Federal Trade Commission (www.ftc.gov). Many states have their own debt collection laws that are different from the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Your Attorney General?s office can help you determine your rights under your state?s law.

have you heard anything because i'm going through the same thing with them right now

mr. white called my job and left messages regarding check fraud to my supervisor and other co-workers after i asked him not to do that. he has left threating messages that i was going to arrested at my job etc. just today. is that all legal. and also this is in regards to payday loan.

hey hot momma...i just had a guy call me today from griggs and associate... is there anyway you can call me to talk about what i should do

I have been dealing with Griggs and Associates for a little over a month.  First off, the people they employ are not only unprofessional but also not knowledgeable.  They called my place of employment and left a message regarding check fraud charges.  When I called them, I found out it was in reference to a payday loan that defaulted.  When I informed them a number of times that the debt was paid, they became belligerent, never asked for proof it was paid, and when I asked for a validation of debt, I got a "conditional letter."  Bottom line, I spoke with a "manager" that I requested a validation of debt and they sent a "conditional letter" and he had the nerve to ask if I knew the difference between the two.  The "conditional" letter was a settlement offer, and from the name alone, a debt validation letter is just that, a letter validating debt.  This company obviously does not believe in training their employees in the law, let alone customer service.  I have reported this company to the FTC and Attorney General's office, not only for the fact that this matter was paid for but also the ignorance of the business practices of this company.

I am receiving calls from this company stating I will be prosecuted if I don't contact them. They called my place of work . the women said she was investigator leevie and she had to speak to me. My boss told her I was on the grounds but they only took messages. Calls aren't allowed. the women answered with what I need her to call me right away and gave this number to contact. 877-245-1490 ext. 5969

That may be true; however, life happens and we should not be subjected to threats or other harassing methods for collections which is why there are governing bodies for collection agencies.

pay your bills and there would be no calls....its insane how people think the bill collectors are the enemy   you are your own worse enemy for not following through w your obligations....PERIOD

Obviously works for the scammers - they all post their "pay your bills" drivel when they know they are BREAKING THE LAW!

I've gotten several threatening calls from this number.  Man who calls himself Henry white states I borrowed money from some company back in 2008 and I never repayed it.  Can not tell me how much just that my balance now is 1121 and I need to pay him 20% now to hold the account for 30 to prevent check fraud charges from being placed against me.  This is the first I've heard of this and he has also contacted my ex husband.  He has all my personal information too which scares me.  
This website is funny.  They claim to be such an extensive collection agency however, they do not obviously adhere to the FDCPA or the FTC.
I had a similar call a year or so ago and was told by the cops that it was fraudulent.  The guy at that time called over and over again. Made terrible threats.

Does anyone else have this problem?  Is this for real or is this just another scam trying to get people to give them money cuz they're scared?

Guy also stated I used Cash bank.  I never have.

I don't have anyother info. Sorry.

You can report them to the Trade commision.  Go to the Trade Commision web site and print out a form.  You will have to add as much information as possible so they can track is "business".

This company whoever they might be, have been calling numerous family members and employer leaving messages that I call them urgently for matter of family emergency. This is wrong. If they can get my family's numbers why don't they call me directly? I would like to report their dishonorable and unbusiness like behavior.

Anybody have any other info on these people? They also have the number 678-905-8917. Any other help will be appreciated.

I have gotten numerouse calls from this company also. Are they real? They have a web page at: www.griggsandassociatesllc.com. They keep calling, do you have any more info on these people?

What these people are dong is aganist the law. They use unlawful tactics to try to get people to pay a debt they have never borrowed.  If you get a call from this number, report them to the Trade Commision.  There is a form you can print and fill out and mail to them to report this company.

is this a real agency or what cause I got a similar phone call from the same number

Give information and person about me to me employer , and call my work more than once.
