Listen Lisa Watts, we know its you. According to many investigations done by everyday people like us. You guys are the criminals, Liars, cheats. NO ONE OWES DEAN SMITH ANYTHING! If anyone owes anything its to other companys not you! You should pay your own bills and get you renta cops in your office from letting your drunk (DUI) criminal husband in check. Leave the rest of the people alone. Trust me, you guys have whats coming to you. The law will yield there mighty sword then it will be you that scared off your [***] but this time it wont be a scam, It will be the real deal babe.
Caller said lawsuit was against me via the state of Florida, and if I didn't return the call in an hour, I would relinquish my right for an attorney. I was told I'd be served papers by the end of the afternoon. Caller continued to leave messages on voicemail with related threats regarding being served with papers from the state.
called my son in law saying that he was under investigation for fraud and if he did not pay a 200 dollar debt by 3 pm that they were going to file suit with the fla attorney general. my daughter called all the courts and the attorney general and found that they (ny daughter and son in law) can file charges against this caller for harassment and defamation of character (they also called all my son in law's family saying all these nasty threats). the offices my daughter called said they cannot file anything against you, you can sue them in a class action suit for (get this) 500 thousand dollars and attorney costs. this is out and out harassment! do not acknowlege your debt, do not answer their questions, or tell them anything. get their address and speak to an attorney!!!! if they continue to harass after you ask them to stop and send them a certified letter saying the same, then you do not owe that debt!!! google your rights!!!! you cannot get arrested for not paying a bill!!! get their address and post it here. we can give them what for!!!!

"I own a business in Jacksonville Florida and was just approached by a salesman (Robert Davis 904-721-3705) from Smith, Dean & Associates 101 Century 21 Drive #107 Jacksonville, Fl 32216 to handle the collection of bad checks for my business. They were United Processing the last time I was approcahed from their salesman. There is a recent lawsuit filed by the Illinois Attorney General for deceptive and unfair trade practices against them. This might be a good case to follow up on and file a class action type suit or use case law with any future legal action. Google their name for a link to the lawsuit. From what I can gather, this organization is shady. "

"ROBERT DAVIS IS A STRAIGHT UP DRIVING ON SUSPENDED LICENSE, CONVICTED FELON....THEY ARE DESPARATE FOR BUSINESS DUE TO THE FACT THE OWNER LISA SMITH AKA LISA WATTS OWES ALL HER CLIENTS, AND THEY PULLED THERE BUSINESS.....WARN ANYONE THAT IS LISTENING DO NOT PLACE BUSINESS THERE,THEY USE ILLEGAL TACTICS LIKE STATING A WARRANT WILL BE ISSUED FOR HER ARREST IF YOU DO NOT PAY ....THEY REALLY GO BY THE SAYING DESPARATE TIMES CALLS FOR DESPARATE MEASURES........
