D.F.G law offices with judgements and summons for credit card dept for court hearings example centinal credit card

These [***] just had the sheriff serve me court papers at my job. They had my house address but sent them to my job on purpose. Now i have to take time off from work with no pay to go to court because now because they wont work with me. What can I do? I live in Arizona and don't make a lot of money.

These are lowlife lawyers who sue people then garnish their wages. They have a network of process servers who contract county sheriffs to serve people. They are the lowest of THE LOW. PURE SCUMBAGS WITH NO HEART.

these people keep calling me saying they are trying to serve me a legal summons and I have to call them within 3 hours.  They called a few weeks ago and said the same thing, but we were out of town at the time.  They say they have had a process server at our house 2 this week(its only tuesday, 6pm)  Who the hell are these people?

What gives these [***] the right to come to my job and garnish my wages? I had a court date but i couldnt miss work. Now I have $211 taken from my pay. What can i do to stop this besides quitting my job?

I have had them call my number also and will find out, whats up?

I have received calls from this number. They are looking for my son, which has not lived at this number for 8 yrs. They do not care, they would rather hassel me. Callers name is Andy Shaffer...he is hard of hearing!

This number belongs to Continental Finance- MasterCard. If you owe them make sure you pay them or make arrangements to pay them because they will hire an attorney to contact the local sheriff's department to serve you a summons to appear in court. That's what happened to me, I got a call from Sheriff's Dept. saying they had a summons for me and if I would be at home, they told me my address and I replied that it was correct. They said that they would come and serve me the summons and if I would be at home. I asked what it was about, and they said it was a sealed summons, so they couldn't look up exact details but they were provided with an 800 number for me to contact. They told me if I contacted 1-888--526-4581, the clients that hired them to serve the summons, I might be able to resolve whatever issue. They said they recommended contacting that number because if not, if they didn't receive an email from them saying not to serve the summons, they would come looking for me. So I called, and I did have prior debt I forgot about, since it was going to a different address (the correspondence). I made arrangements with them to pay $100 monthly for 9 months. So, I'm okay now. :o)

Did they ever gave you a receipt and confirmation number for your first payment. I was just curious because I only a confirmation number.

I have recieved two calls. The first was a message from Jessica Gonzolas and stated that a process server along with a uniformed agent would be out to my house between 11 to 3:30 pm and to call 888-526-4581 with my case number. No one showed up. I called and an agent said they were going to sue for over 5000 dollars but they could settle out of court for 2000.  They said I had a court date of Oct 13,2010. I requested written documentation for a settlement offer but they claimed they could not because its time sensitive. I went to the county court house to inquire about the court date. There was no court date any time at all for me and the clerk stated she has no idea what these people are talking about.

Yesterday afternoon I received a phone call from a witheld number. When I played the message back it was from a Jack Ericson, who stated he was from the legal dept. of my county. A summons had come across his desk and an officer would be at my residence between 12:30 and 5:30p to deliver a summons. He stated that a civil suit had been filed against me by a financial institution. He slurred the name of the institution, as to where I would not understand what he said. He left the number 888-526-4581 with my file number to return the call.  When I returned the call, I got a voice message, where again the name of this group was unidentified. I did some research and found the name to be DF Group. Last night at 9pm, my brother-in-law received a phone call, an unidentified man said that he was looking for me because a police officer was coming to my home to deliver a warrant. I received many frantic phone calls from family members thinking a warrant had been issued for my arrest! These guys are scum and operating outside of the boundaries of the FDCPA. I am reporting them to my state attorney general as well as the FTC. They cannot relate senstitive information about me to anyone! I encourage anyone else who has encounters with this DF Group to report them to your local atty general and the FTC. They need to be put out of business.

Did you call the local courthouse?   They can verify whether a lawsuit has been filed or not.   Its important that you DO THIS!  You need to verify yourself before you are served

They cannot serve you if they have not filed with the courts first.  

Claiming that they have filed and are serving you when they have not is ILLEGAL

It sounds like they are using illegal scare tactics on you.  

Process servers do not call - they just show up.   And they probably would not be referring you to the collection agency to work "something out" before they serve the papers.  That is not their jobs.

Please keep this thread posted on what happens!

Same thing just happened to me.  Private Number on the phone, gave me the number 888-526-4581.They wanted to know if I would be home to accept paper work and then asked if I wanted to talk to some one in the legal department.  Since this has happened to me before, I said no, give me the phone number and the case number.  I am pretty sure that no one is going to show up at my home.  Will be changing the home number now!!  I'll update if some one does show up.

I got a call from private number couple days ago from Jack Ericson too left me the number 888 526 4581 and case number,told me to call  them back, he said somebody will come out to my house from 11- 4 oclock  bla...bla...bla  and that i been sue by someone . So call my lawer , he call them and told them that he will report them to state general attorney,they said they dont have anybody name Jack Erison and hangup on him,untill now I dont see anybody come out .

Are they legit or not? I don't care about the lawsuit, summons, judgement....etc. Are they representing the original creditor? The fact is we all obviously had a creditor, ran the debt up, and now can't pay it for whatever reason....I AM NOT INTERESTED IN DISPUTING THEIR METHODS - I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF I SETTLE FOR 200 ON A 1900 'BALANCE' IS IT LEGIT?

Make sure you get something in writing stating what they are willing to settle for. Chances are they wont. They told me I couldn't get anything in writing because they were serving me and taking me to court. That has not happened yet. The court date they gave me had come and gone and did not exist in the first place according to my county court house. Any way, I talked to another guy there who said he would settle the 2000 dollar debt for 600 bucks out of court. He wanted my debit card number right away. I did not give it too him because from what I've herd from others is that they will drain your bank account.  Get a written agreement and send a check if you want to settle. Keep in mind that a paid collection is considered the same as an unpaid collection when it comes to credit scoring.

Recieved a phone call at work saying they had a summons for me.   I inquired as to the nature of the summons and they gave me 888 526 4581  to call with a case number.   I called and talked to ANTHONY BROWN and he informed me that I owed 6000  on a dell computer.   He said that they just got control of all the loans  from dell financial and any agreement before  Sep 25 were null and void and the total was due immeadiatly.   The 6000 included 3000 lawyer fees , 2000 for the original debt, and 1000 for admin fees.  I told him that primary financial services were still drafting on my bank account.   He said he could settle for 2000 or I could make arrangements to pay it out including all extra fees.
I offfered to pay 75 per month on a draft and was informed since the total was so high, it wasnt enough.
He asked if I could pay the 2000 and I said no, to which he replied, "we have no choice but to serve the summons tomorrow at work.   When I got home and opened my mail, I found a letter from primary financial services reminding me that they would draft on my bank account Oct. 29 and that the total balance of my debt was 1071.68 .

Make sure you file a reply at the court and ask them for orignal papers with your info ( they will not have) have them validate the debt and ask for a dismall, www.budhibbs.com ...

In order to serve you, they have had to already file papers with the court, they are using threat teq. which is illgal repoert them to the FTC.

If served, make sure you file a reply asking them for paperwork and if debt over 3 years old ask court to dismiss

they are Bottom Feeders debt collectors working on commission

You have to file the correct paperwork at the court where the garnish was filed
