Another "debt collector" using threats and refusing to stop calling over a fake debt. We received a call from "Courtney Thomas", who said she was with the "Department of Judgement and Civil Complaint". Said she would be calling to harass me everyday. She has been reported to the police, the FTC, the Better Business Bureau and our state's Attorney General.
Please visit the FTC's website and read up on your rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. If the person calling you breaks any of the laws, chances are that you are dealing with a scammer. Owing debt is NOT a crime, and threatening to you arrest you over a debt is illegal and is considered extortion.
