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.

The case number for the complaint is RIC 117805, filed in Riverside County Superior Court, Riverside, California. The problem is the complaint is 100 pages long counting the attached exhibits, thus purchasing it through the court's website will be insanley expensive. Still, it is now technically a public record document, thus I will attempt to scan the document into an accesible site. Are there any suggestions as to where?
Please forward the info to diversifiedarb@aol.com. Further, any named defendant as listed on the civil litigation that wishes to avoid the inconveniece and/or embarassment of service in public or at home can email me and can pick up their copy of the summons and complaint directly from the law office.
Thank you all for your assistance. For those of you who were victimized, I do beleive that there will be justice in the end for all, through both the instant civil litigation and the FTC action.
Basically, just placeholders.
They weren't yet using the associated phone numbers, so they would have no reason to think anyone would be looking at their uncompleted sites.
They weren't designed to be read by anyone but consumers trying to find out who they were, probably searching with Google on the name or phone number. Those would be ones they had already called and threatened. They certainly weren't designed to attract creditor clients.
The other "filing services" sites just had common boiler plate "generic consumer debt advice", with the names and phone numbers changed to match the "company".
RIC in the first field,
1117805 in the second.
Not quite PACER but it gives the names of who should be a little scared now...
Hope this helps.
Very sad that we were lied to!!!
