You do realize that the payday loan places (who are all run by criminals) sold your information to other criminals so that they could extort you. Read CWG40's and Alfalfa's posts.
Since they will not mail you the legally required documentation and you cannot find an address for them ignore their calls. See if you phone company can block their number or purchase an external Call Block device. They run about $60 on amazon.
Garnishments are not initiated by FAX.
As Vinny Gambini stated, garnishments are issued only by court order, AFTER a judgement.
That means you must have received a summons to appear, and would have received mailed copies of court documents. No FAXes.
If that is true, you should be able to give us the information at the top of the summons or court documents, since it is now "public information".
Give us the court name and location, the name of the judge, the plaintiff's attorney's name and Bar number, and the name of the company or person that is suing you, the date of the trial, and a docket number.
Can you do that, to prove your statement?
I betcha you can't. You didn't even give the physical and web address of the company that uses this phone number, so we could check their validity. It seems you cannot even remember the correct name of the company that supposedly called you!
Do not bother to return and argue these points, unless you can provide the data I requested.
John (or Jon) Tomas from legal processing services left a voicemail on my phone saying "We have been retained to process legal paperwork under my name and social security number this is a very serious legal matter and that i can reach him at1 312-971-6237." Im not sure if its a scare tactic or that he can somehow sue me. I did acquire some debts in my younger years that have gone unpaid but I have not received any paperwork saying I was going to be sued. The only paper work i have ever received are the typical debt collection letters. My suspicion is that im now 27 and this debt is approaching 7 years and they would like to get it taken care of before that happens. Does anyone think I have cause to fear lawsuit?
I just got the exact same call as 'Bacon', word for word. I have no current or previous collections. Is this likely a scam? Or is it a legitimate debt collector with misinformation? Also, wouldn't such a debt be reported on a credit report? I would think those receiving this call should request their credit report and see if anything is showing up there before returning a call like this.
