This number tried calling me the other day on my house phone. I don't answer numbers I do not know. It left an automated message with a totally different number to call back. Will not call back because after reading this list of complaints...all set.
A woman called my listed home phone asking for me. She said she was from a company called Unified Processing Service and that she has a lawsuit for me. She said she was going to give me a number to call and I said OK. Then the line went dead. I do not know what happened?? I am not aware of anyone filing a lawsuit against me.
There is no lawsuit, read the following and use the links to learn what you should already know about how debt collection is supposed to work and while there report this criminal enterprise.
Criminals masquerading as debt collectors attempt to extort money from people by scaring you into believing that you will be criminally charged (they use the bad check or hot check claim a lot) and go to jail, lose your driver’s license, have wages garnished without actually being sued or going to court, be sued, and a variety of other variations on this, all for an alleged or nonexistent debt. One of the tricks they use is to call your family, friends, neighbors and/or places of employment (past or present or both) to create panic and embarrassment so that their intended victim calls them and they can scare that person into paying their extortion money. They will use the words “Mediator”, “Arbitrator”, or “Law Office” to make you believe that they are something other than a debt collector want-a-be and that they don’t have to follow Federal and State collection laws. They do have to follow those laws, but they won’t. They mention that they have received a Fax document, to create the sense of urgency. They also tell you that if you fail to call them back you are "waiving your right to council", which is pretty much nothing but hogwash. They also use the “process server” ruse who calls and claims he is going to serve you, but then says you could avoid it by calling another number where they will ask for money to “make it go away” (this is actually the same place, they work in teams, one pretending to be the server, and the other usually pretends to be a lawyer). Process servers do not ever call ahead so that you can dodge them. Process servers get paid to serve papers, nothing else.
