Harassment
Complaint
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.

I was wondering if this maybe part of a scram.....Two weeks ago,I fall victim to fraud/scram.The company name -Diversity Equity Group,40 Exchange Place,NY!NY 10005(866-620-1403)a private loan company whose investor are oversea and in the states.My credit score is low.....so when they offer the $10,000.00 at 8%for 36 months I took it. MIstake.Because they wants four months payments in advance($1251.00)to show good faith,wire to them in Barclona,Spain.I did.That was Oct.7,2011(Friday).Monday was a holiday,bank were closed so no deposit.By Tuesday the manager(Peter)called and wants more money,because my credit score is low.I cancelled the contract and wants my money back......he said they will refund me the money in 30 days(Nov.11,2011)into my checking account.I have copy of the contract/ WesternUnion receipt.....on my way to take everything to the FBI.Also a friend just checked their website......was just created in Sept.2011 from HONG KONG!!! Thank you for letting post this.kt
I can tell you that over 400 employees from this company (that have families) were lied too. They were given scripts and trained from management how to legally work and collect debts nationwide. These people can only trust their manager or the CEO of the company, that they are giving the the correct information. Believe me, this was shocking for over 400 employees! DO NOT BASH EMPLOYEES! That come from different ethnicity and education levels. TJ you know nothing! You need to stay out of it, stop making rumors. If you got balls and man enough, you will give your real name.
I pray for those who had to suffer and financially in a whole because this company knew at a certain time they would be investigated and tried to squeeze out as much money from debtors as they could! The little man is the one that is suffering!
But I will tell you one thing! If you pay your bills, you wouldn't have a debt collector behind you in the first place!

The wider audience will likely cause more victims to come forward. :-)
