Today a collection company called and left a message on my supervisor's phone with a very detailed message regarding my alleged debt status.  So I called the number and these people threaten me with not paying my bills and well as never paying my debts which is none of her business. They were going to serve with a  complaint to sue from the original source to appear in court. A bench warrant would be issued if I didn't accept their paper work.She also said a police office would be wtih her when she served me at my place of work.  They then called back to speak to me about this and I told them what they did was illegal what she said.  She also stated to be served at my job in front of my co-workers.  I told her to do what she had to do.  Then she call another number where I work and left a message she wanted to speak to my direct supervisor and left a reference number. Why would a process server need to speak with your supervisor

      Check with the Texas Attorney General.  If this is a Texas based debt collector, they are required to be licensed and bonded.

      If they are bonded, and you sue them for FDCPA violations and win, you can collect from the bonding company.  That may make it easier to find an attorney willing to take the case on contingency.

      Also Texas consumer law places tighter compliance restrictions on debt collectors than FDCPA.  Their evasion of validation through illegal threats violates both.

      If they are not licensed and bonded, then the Texas AG can shut them down.

      If they aren't actually in Texas, they may be using VoIP to fake a Texas area code.
      The M.O. is consistent with Buffalo NY area debt collectors.

    Jim Jones-clever- called and left a Voicemail. He said a process server came to my house Friday and was unable to reach me. I was home all day so if I didn't call back today he would have the papers served to my place of employment tomorrow. (I have been unemployed for 5 months now- good luck with that.) I Googled the  number 214-473-4318 and it is for some online payday loan I got 3 years ago and paid off and I don't even have the bank account anymore. I found this website, read all of the comments, and called him back. I told him he could meet me at my local Sheriffs office with the papers tomorrow morning at 7AM. He said okay and hung up. Maybe they'll stop calling now.

    Well they called me, Victoria Wentworth even, and she continued to act smug. I told her I am recording the conversation, this was the third such recording, plus the records on my work phone, a friends phone, my mother and the vm on my home phone. and she said that is fine what is my home address. Well seeings that they had to call 411 to get my home number isn't it possible they could look it up that way? Anyways I said you can't find it fine deliver it to my work. Don't bother with the whole your supervisor needs to be present because that is illegal, and the sheriffs department delivers the summons in a nondescript envelope because it is personal and private information. Then she had the gall to call my work again, asking what is the procedure for delivering a summons she even made sure to tell them my name. Somebody has been dropped on her head one to many times. First off there's a buzzer, second off the sheriffs department doesn't need a procedure. She told me they would be there within the hour. So I waited two, now I am calling the AG in Texas, in NY, and in NH. I have her recorded as saying they would be delivering a summons in an hour. Threatening someone with legal action that you do not follow through with is illegal. Disclosing personal information to your employer is illegal. This is why they verify it is really you before they explain the problem

      Sue him, if you can find him.
      If not, he's fake, like this "debt".

      Profile is consistent with a typcial fraudulent "debt collection" shakedown racket.

      When they deliberately disclose to third parties, particularly your employer, their goal is to get money by illegal threats, both threats of embarassment and possible loss of your job, and threats of a fake "lawsuit".

      That suggests there is something illegal, uncollectable, or phony about this "debt".

      Was there any connection with any real debt, maybe an extortionate payday loan through an illegal lender, or was he fishing for information from you, and pretending some old "loan" you remember is owed to them?

    I too would say that is out of line.  I was called today a supervisor from another department brought me the message.  I'm like okay is this from my divorce.  NOT!.  I listened to the voice message that a MR. MEADOWS left from a 214-256-4998 number and I guess he was proposing a threat, NO he was because he did mention that there were documents that I needed to receive  in a time sensitive manner.  Really.  Come on now that is way too much.  Why don't you shove it!  Its people like this that want to jeopardize your job and career.  BITE ME!

      Fed UP!
      People from this number keep calling my cell number and recently called my son with the same process server story blah blah blah.....This has been going on for years with similar scam calls right after someone hacked into my bank information.  DON'T ANSWER.  Report the number to the FTC.  There is a form on their website to report them.  It may not help but it can't hurt.  Unreal that people actually have this as a job and try to scam unsuspecting people, not to mention the harassment and embarrassment they cause to innocent folks.

      I just got a call from 214-504-1727 stating it is J&R and that this is a process server and he needs to come to my job to serve me papers or I can call and try to work this out outside of court.  Actually this is the 3rd call  from them and i did not get the name but when i called back he said his name is John Friedman on the vmail. Every time I call back there is a vmail and I never get a call back from my message. I have called the police, irs, my bank and the warrant department to see if there is any reason I would need to be served any papers and they all have said no. I was told to report it to the FBI because they have gotten a lot of complaints. I don't know what to make of this. I have owed a debt before, but why would I need a process server. they just send it certified mail.
