I have received several telephone calls from FRG and Associates regarding a Civil Complaint for Franklin County from a Christie Bradley, telephone number: 1-716-362-0930.
The potential litigation against Anthony Williams per Ms. Bradley background check indicated that I am Anthony Williams’ mother. They background check was performed and that I am Anthony’s mother. Well, I concur that I have a son, but his name is not Anthony. I asked her how old is my son? Of, course, Ms. Bradley would not release any information, but, insisted that Anthony Williams was my son. She said that Anthony Williams gave them my name and telephone number and that I need to find him and see why he gave them my name and telephone number.
Ms. Bradley was persisted that Anthony Williams was my son and that if I did not want to give Anthony Williams the information to protect him. She asked for the Social Security Number of my son. I told her “no.” I will not give you my son’s Social Security Number. She mentioned how I could be offended if I did not know Anthony Williams. Well, the table turned, she hung up the telephone on me. I immediately called Ms. Bradley back because I was not finished with my conversation and that she was not going to call me and say what she wanted to say and that is the end of the conversation.
I truly understand rectifying and attempting to collect monies voluntarily and out of court. However, it is very distasteful when you contact the wrong person to insist that they know the person indebted to their firm.
I understand that the Litigation Department wanting to collect funds but be professional about it. You cannot disrespect a person’s home, period. However, I should not have allowed myself to tune out Ms. Bradley because she disrespected me. I am receiving entirely too many telephone calls from companies who continue to contact me regarding issues for Mr. and Mrs. Michael (Sandra) Williams who lives in Xenia, OH.
I do not appreciate being accused of being the Sandra Williams that companies are looking for all the time when they really want Sandra Williams in Xenia, OH. To date, I have never lived in Xenia, OH.
Ms. Bradley said that a background check was made and that I was Anthony Williams’ mother. True, I have a son and my last name is Williams, but, I do not have a son name Anthony Williams. Ms. Bradley said that Anthony Williams gave the firm my name and telephone number and told me to find him and see why he gave my name and telephone number.
I contacted 911 (Information) and 0 (Operator) and this company is not listed. I have no clue what City or State for FRG and Associates, but was given “Franklin County.” I requested to speak to Ms. Bradley’s supervisor and was told she did not have a supervisor. The Case Number left on my caller ID by Ms. Bradley for Anthony Williams is: 272841.
First off, if they are telling you somebody is coming out to serve you and that you are being sued that is ilegal against the Fair Debt Collection Act. Second of all, they use numerous numbers as the number they called me from was different, but I compared the two and its the same recording, same voice, same hold music, etc.
If they call you again tell them you are filing a report with the FTC, ask them to verify your debt, and they will likely get nasty with you. They are breaking the law if they are telling you that you are being sued with out intent to do so, and if they tell you that you will be arrested.
BudHibbs.com doesnt have anything on them yet, but you can email him and ask what you can do. He is a very helpful, free recource.
Good luck everyone!
This company called me today on my cell phone & said she was Mrs Amberton or Mrs Anderson from Legal outsourcing, a legal law firm, FRG about a civil matter & someone has retained council & it will go to Jurisdiction for Arbitration. I have no idea what she is talking about & who would be filing a civil lawsuit against me. I will be giving this to my attorney. This is the 1st time I have gotten a voice mail from this company. I know I am in debt & have lost my job 2 years ago, & only work 2 days a week, because of slow business where I work
I got a call from a Mr. Mazyck and he also told me that if I did not call him back then he would procede with the legal procedings and have me served. He said he wanted to give me a chance before he did so on my voicemail. He also called me work which is completely illegal. After looking the number and the company name up on the internet i cam across a bunch of other complaints and they are a complete fraud and try bto scare you into giving them your money which more than likely does not go toward any debt that you owe. I called them back afetr doing research on them and left a message to let them know that I have been a victim if identity theft and did research on them and found out they are not who they say they are and if they call my work again I will file a complaint against them! We will see if they call back...
Keeps calling and threatening a civil lawsuit for fraud. Today Mr. Mizik from the litigation and fraud department of FRG and associated called for the 3rd time. He added my husband's name. "If I don't hear from you at the end of business by tomorrow, I will contact and enlist prosecution of you to the fullest extent of MI law. I haven't committed fraud, my husband hasn't committed fraud...THIS IS A SCAM. I am referring the matter to the MI Attorney General. People don't sue over the phone.
