Debra M. Persiano
Country: United States
I got a call today at home from a man stating he was a process server for Collin County DA's Office and he is with the Sheriff's office and needed to come serve a warrant on me.  I was shocked and asked why?  He stated do you live ....are you still at this address are you now at this address and I stated who are you?  He again, stated he was from the county going to serve court papers on me today. He gave me a toll free number for what he stated was the county's office which is 1 866.872.6116 gave me a case no. which he called a Cause No. 008307-TX. I called the number was transferred to a Mr. Fisher's office who stated that law suite in the amount of $6,214.24 was filed in Collin Co., Tx and that warrant was out for me.  He then after back and forth said let me get more information from my secretary and state this was for an outstanding debt in from Capital One a credit card that I obtained several years back and had disputes over interest charges etc.  He stated that if I did not want to go to court or jail that I could pay $1,951.00 in full by end of business today and this matter could be cleared up.  I explained that I recently lost my job etc.  Anyway, he stated that I needed to call him back by EOB today or they will serve the papers.  Ok, so that was a heads up for me.  I called the DA's office nothing is filed on me as of today, after searching PMG it is clear that they do not practice best practices for collections and have been in trouble for this before back in 2004.  I need someone to give me advise. I want to pay off my debt, I don't want this type of collections to continue this upset me, made my blood pressure raise, this type of collections are not the right thing to do.  Had they called and ask to make arrangements or give me an opportunity to clear the matter, rather then threaten me by taken legal action, or harassment stating they are sending a sheriff over today.  This is wrong, bad business, and should not continue this company is bad news.

    Also a "law firm" website
    FTC also documented that they had set up a batch of new websites that weren't yet fully active, one of which tried to appear to be a "law firm".  The name used appears to be the actual last name of an attorney in Riverside, but one who practices non-collection law.

    The various sites looked like they were just made for appearances, without anything set up to attract business clients or even allow people to pay.  They typically had boilerplate generic "consumer debt advice", often the same on many of the sites, combined with vaguely implying that they somehow assisted their "clients" in collections, including "suing".  

    Probably just constructed to catch people who might search on the name or phone number, to try to convince them they were "legitimate".

    Exactly.
    These sites were created for the sole purpose of misleading the public. Note all of the shill blog posts...the work of their "Reputation Defenders". The sites themselves are just further proof that deception, false threats and lies are the only things these jokers can produce. I just hope they have lots of fun this month, because once the next batch of lawsuits hit their doors I don't think they will have their doors open very long. :)

    Like you really give a damn about it...
    Slander and defamation was your daily bread and butter.

    In every call you made to a relative or employer, playing "process server" or "deputy", pretending you were "serving papers", you defamed whoever you claimed to be "suing".  Deliberate third party disclosure of a fake, nonexistent "lawsuit" is nothing but defamation.

    "Reverse SEO"
    This seems like a sister industry to debt collection. Thugs who bully people with small threats while offering bribery, later attacking the websites and computers of people who "Da Boss wants us to whack" like 1920's mobsters. We do not fear you or your friends in the shady old debt collection industry. Your day has come and gone.

    Still think they can hide
    Except looks like they'll be going after Wayne in Texas soon.  He thinks all he has to do to escape this mess and start over is to grow out his hair and move there.  Poor guy.  If only it were that easy.

    Pamela Cummngs Matthew still has her FB pics open.
    She has pictures of the whole gnarly crew.
    What does the public need to do get the FTC to shut this place?

    debt collectors a thing of the past.
    The true loser is the Debt Collector that has no ability or education to support themselves in any other way but to lie and cheat.
    This type of collection is archaic and you will not be able to collect from the public in this manner in the very near future.

    Ok
    Again I am with a company that does it by the book and when contacting the person who owes the money am told to f--- off. So act like you people would pay if we go to you. LIERS! You never planned on paying. Again professional debters. Your all losers. Stop acting like victums! This is the only way you have found to get out of paying but you will pay one way or another. Even if you dont pay money karma will get you all.

    Logic-Can we try it?
    I want you to tell me who owes you money. Who did you lend money to. Better yet tell me how the companies who originally weren't paid benefit when you use your scam to get money from a debtor. Next, please tell me how you keep from contacting people who did not truly rack up the debt, but were in fact victims of identity theft. That's right, you have no answers. You were convinced a while back that rather than have to work a real job you could just harass people, their families and their employers. You are the DEAD BEAT. I am truly sorry that no one in this country wishes to pay your illegal "Spiff money".

    Oh and guys, when you initially contact a debtor you must first notify them by mail. Writing a script that asks "Do you normally have problems with your mail?" and states "Since it wasn't returned to us I can see if the lawyer will reinstate the offer" is NOT the same as sending out a letter, in fact it makes it pretty damn obvious that you are lying scum who fail to follow ANY of the FDCPA rules.

    Scripts and talk-offs..
    document intentional violations of FDCPA, including fraud and extortion.

    You use a talk-off to evade a consumer dispute, you are engaged in fraud.
    You use a threat to evade a consumer dispute, you are engaged in extortion.
    Same if you call and make a threat to a relative.

    Simple as that.

    Texas AG
    already has a cease and desist order against at least one of the Corona cluster, for illegal unlicensed and unbonded collection in Texas.

    Maybe he will "fail to disclose" (under penalty of perjury) his earlier connection with a certain LLC with a Texas AG order, in connection with an application for a license.  

    Maybe they can grease the skids this time if he decides to operate from there.

    logic can we try response
    come on man. your talking about maybe 1% of the debtors really are victims of fraud so dont try to use that damn card. 99% of you are dead beats and wont pay your bills unless your threatened and you are the same exact kind of people that have the child protective services threatening to take your kids too and thats the only way you will straight up.its sad that the only way you dead beats act like adults is if you are threatened but nice try on making excuses and sticking up for the 1% of real victims so now you can blame people like yourself that the real victims get threatening like this because there thrown in with all you debt beats so its hard to believe when people are really fraud victims because you losers use that as the first excuse when your called about your debt.stop using excuses so we can identify when theres real fraud victims you idiot.
