The DNC is a list, not a call blocker. It governs sales calls not debt collectors. Your advice is also 4 years too late for that person, although it certainly would not have done them any good had it been more timely.
Got a call from 917-745-4823-----Howard and Associates----- called my work ###- several times I hung up-- said they are about to garnish my wages??????? I said I haven't rec anything in writing what is this about---he wouldn't tell me--i asked for his address so my lawyer could mail him a letter-- got very rude-so i hung up---who are these people??? don't see them listed when i do a search by phone ## this is what came up
I got a call from this number, calls my Mom house number and threatens her about taking me to court and harass about a loan that I took out. This man that calls himself David Mayne say's he is a Lawyer. Nasty person taking to us like that has no business, no right at all.
They called me yesterday and said they were going to garnish my wages and I have not received anything in writing about this. Wanted my card info so they could take deductions from my account in order to prevent garnishments. I wont give them card info definitely but can they garnish your wages without you getting anything in writing first?
"IF they do not provide you with the verification of the debt, the debt is invalid and not subject to collection. PAY NOTHING TO ANYBODY UNLESS THEY PROVIDE YOU WITH WRITTEN VERIFICATION OF THE DEBT, AND ONLY THEN IF YOU FEEL THE DEBT IS VALID - otherwise, let them sue you for the debt, as a real law firm will only bring a legal action on a truly valid debt".
