I too received very rude and threatening calls from Paul Cook from Rawlins and Rivera. This is a collection acgency using tactics which are considered wrong per the Fair Debt Collection Act. The FTC has a preliminary injunction against this company. If you feel you have been abuse or treated unfairly by this company and their calls - contact the FTC www.ftc.gov and register a complaint. You can read the preliminary injuction at the FTC site
A Paul Cook and now a Mr. Ward have been calling several times a day leaving rude and threating messages on my cell phone claming to be from the law firn Rowlans & Rivera. The number they leave to return the cll is 888-435-5979. I will be registering a complaint with the FTC.
Different people (all have been female) have called my office almost daily. They are extremely rude & tell me they are involved with some legal issues with our 'company', etc, etc, etc. We are an ambulance service, not a company. They say we have to call them back immediately at 800-722-2473. Today, after listening to the lady, she asked me to repeat back the information she had told me to write down. I couldn't help but laugh (since I obviously hadn't taken a message). She wasn't very happy & hung up!! I have found information on the internet about numerous lawsuits against 'Rawlins & Rivera' (or however it's spelled) by the Federal Trade Commission regarding false, threatening, and unfair collection acts. Google "Rawlins & Rivera" & you'll see what I mean!
Judy Morrow called from 800-722-2473. She said she was with
Rollins & Rivers.
She acted as if it were important. I saw these postings and called her back. I told her I know this is a SCAM!!! She said, "OK" and hung up. Keep up the good work America!!!
Rec'd a call from Judy Moore from Rollins & Rivers @ (800) 722-2473. She asked for the President of our company. When we asked about what the item was she indicated a collections matter. When asked for more details she refused and asked for her call to be returned. When told she would be directed to our CFO she hung up. Our CFO called and she claimed she couldn't talk to him hung up. He called back and requested a supervisor was told they were busy but would take a message - no voice mail. The receptionist took the message and when asked who would return the call she hung up. I am contacting the FTC on this matter.
