WHO IS THIS

Voicemail received, "Hello, this is Angelica calling from MIA. I have a delivery agent out there to the property address on file and he was unsuccessful again at getting someone to sign the documents today. Our contact is 202-802-9505. We will only be able to make one more time before we return your file for failure to comply. Again the number is 202-802-9505." No idea who these people are. They have never been to my house.

The fake process server/location finder extortion attempt usually consists of the following:

They mention that they have received a Fax document or some sort of complaint and that there is a pending legal matter or action about to filed against you to create the sense of urgency.  They tell you that they are a “process server” and cannot give you the particulars of the case since the file is sealed. This is simply ruse to get you to call another number (often with a made-up case 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).  They threaten to serve you at home or at work.  They tell you that if they serve you at work then they will need a supervisor, security, or HR person there as a witness, hoping that will cause you to panic over the alleged embarrassment of being served at work.  They also tell you that you will need two forms of ID.  None of which is true.  Process servers do not ever call ahead so that you can dodge them.  Process servers get paid to serve papers, nothing else.  They certainly are not going to pass up a paycheck by telling you that you can avoid being served, they are not going to give you an extra day or even a few hours to get a “stop order”.  Court documents are time sensitive and must be served within a certain amount of time.  Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there really is a lawsuit that has been filed against you.

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and (this is the important part) that they have the legal right to collect it.  You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid.  

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.  If and when you get that letter you should immediately send that debt validation letter by certified, return receipt mail.

First, you should make a complaint at this Federal Agency, and while there you should also read up on how debt collection is supposed to work as well as what your rights in this matter are: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/

Also file complaints with the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

Spam call. Same message as Carl. They have never been to my house.

I just received the exact same call, "Hello, this is Angelica calling from EMI".  No one came to my house, this is a scam.

Same call and message as others posted here. They are hoping to find somebody that actually owes a debt and panic them into paying up. SCAM! Best thing to do is ignore these calls.

I got the same phone call but they told me they were from EMI.....this is a load of crap, no one has been to my house, this is the only phone call I have ever gotten.....scam
I have only had a sherrifs office call me asking me to come pick up something that needed to be served due to corona virus, and the sheriffs officer that called is a good friend of ours so I knew it was legit.  I never went and he threw it away eventually

"he threw it away eventually"? So you missed your court date? Well, that's not good. I'm pretty sure your "good friend" shouldn't have done that.

they were trying to contact my nephew who lives in Iowa. I live in Tennessee. He has never been to this address. I did not give my cellphone number to anyone. At first she said someone tried to deliver a file here. I have been here all day. the only person that came to my door was UPS man.

Same message as above

They just called me and they said the same thing but I knew that I have no one looking for me and I don’t have no debts, so I told them because I actually called back to come back and make the delivery attempt and I’ll be waiting with Smith and Wesson and I hung up on them✌🏽

I got the exact same voice mail message today.

Called Harassing my family, Asking for my husband suppose ably regarding our son,  when I finally spoke with some one they where rude had wrong info on us and Kept saying I don't even want to speak to you. I asked them just to send us the paperwork so we can go from there and they kept saying sure sure fine. That they usually communicate through Text not phone calls or mail.

I just got the exact same VM. Funny bc my husband & I are both home today. And a hurricane is blowing!   Scam
