My brother received a phone call from 281-377-5921 asking for me. The person left a voice mail stating I would be receiving a delivery tomorrow at 3 pm and would need a witness with a photo ID. This sounds VERY peculiar. My brother lives 5 hours away, and I have no idea where this supposed "delivery" is supposed to take place. Has anyone heard of anything like this??
The guy also mentioned he was a courier for my county...too bad he had the wrong apt number. I figure if this was serious enough, he would have the correct address. When the real courts issue something or being sued, the information is accurate.
On Monday 06/02/14 I received a call from 281-377-5921. I did not answer it and the person left me a message saying his name was John, could not understand last name from a private courier. Told me he was going to be by between 12-2 on 06/03/14 and to have a valid ID so I could sign for some documents. He told me to call 855-580-5797 to reschedule if I was not going to be home. Never called him or the 855 number. In the background I could hear what sounded like a call center.
This morning 06/04/14, he called me three times in a row. Left a message the third time. Claiming that he came by twice, called numerous times and left several messages. He told me that he is considering me evasive and he is sending my papers back as a direct refusal and a failed appearance. Of course he told me to call the 855 number. I researched that number and from some of the comments that I read it sounds like illegal debt collection.
As other in here have said. Most paper servers do not call you in advance and papers are served by either Sheriff's Departments and there are some private civil servers. Or the paper is sent via certified mail and you have to sign for that.
