Conner Evans and investigator Chavez called claiming I owed an old debt and they represented the law firm of Ross and Peterson   Provided a web address to a bogus site.  Anyway I ended up giving my credit card for $150 and set up a payment arrangement.  This was not sitting well w/ me iso I did my own investigation. I called the credit card  company to find out an attempt to charge $484 was made but blocked. I repeatedly asked for proof and none was provided. Follow your instincts if it smells fishy it is fishy. SCAMMERS

I hope that credit card was destroyed and your cc company is sending you a new one.  Per the FDCPA  - you should NOT pay any caller who refuses to MAIL a debt validation letter showing you owe a debt and that they have the legal right to collect said debt.  If they refuse to mail this documentation, do not pay!  Refusal to mail the DV letter is a violation of the FDCPA.  If you really were to be contacted by a law firm about a valid debt, you would receive letters from that firm - you wouldn't get a phone call first.  Please do report your callers to the FTC, FCC and your state's Attorney General.

I'm a bankruptcy attorney.  A client of mine called and told me that this Investigator Chavez had called her and she gave her a phone payment as well.  I checked out the website and it was clearly fake, the address of the firm listed was the old Enron building which is now owned by some other company which occupies it in full and does not lease out any space therein.  The bios of the "attorneys" were completely misspelled and fraught with grammatical errors and just sounded ridiculous.  I plugged the photos of the alleged attorneys into google image search and they were available on a stock photo website as generic "executive" photos.  I reported them to both the State Bar of Texas and the Houston FBI field office.  Haven't heard anything but the website is down.

Ms. Coston,

 After our conversation we did forward you the letter that you requested. You told me that you knowingly committed the offense and would like to resolve the matter. Yes there was an attempt to charge $484 because that was the original settlement offer on your case. We contacted you after the payment declined and offered to divide the payment into multiple payments. When you asked for the payment to be placed on hold until you received your documentation, I immediately contacted our payment processing department and stopped the payment. We will log this post along with the phone recordings.

If you have any further questions or comments, contact our office.

Thank you.

John,

As an "attorney" you should understand more than anyone how valuable our reputation is to us. If you have any questions please contact us instead of posting ridiculous and outlandish post on the internet. We respect and appreciate your attempt in trying to protect and inform consumers.

Respectfully,

Conner Evans

Doing a little back-pedaling there pal? Why don't you post your valid physical address right here? Once you've been verified the regulars here will be glad to help you with your endeavors. I doubt we'll be hearing much from you. None of us will wonder why!

Your boss will be over-joyed to know that you tried to play on this site. He'll probably want to cut your pay. But he can't. Minimum wage is minimum wage. He'll just have to remind you that you're not even worth that.
Skeff Ett Liv!

Ms. Coston was informed that her credit card information would be removed and destroyed from our system. What Ms. Coston did not mention is, once she informed us that she did not wish to resolve this matter we issued her a full refund. We mailed (email and USPS) Ms. Coston  several "validation" letters of which we have a returned signature receipt from USPS.

If you have questions regarding our firm or practices, please contact us directly.

Thank you,

Conner Evans

Gunnar -

If that is the REAL Conner Evans, Attorney, the years have not treated him well.
However, there is another possible link:
Conner Evans is an actor, known for Out of the Darkness (2012)
In any case, it might be entertaining to follow the adventures of these two "attorneys", as they use 800notes to argue their "cases".

And yet again, you tell people to contact you. Without supplying a valid physical address. "Mr. Evans", you're making an ass of yourself while, at the same time, confirming that you're a smoke-blowing junk/zombie debt collector or just a measly fraud.
If you want to play on this site you'd better be ready to put up or shut up. If you piss us off, we'll take you apart. Bring it on "Mr. Evans" ! We'll be waiting!
Skeff Ett Liv!
Gunnar

Gunnar,
 
 Your response was immature. If you need our address visit our website and you will find all the information you request.

 Have you ever had any communication or affiliation with our firm? I'm not sure where your response is coming from but you can also contact us if you have any questions regarding our business practices.

Thank you,

Conner Evans

This phone number is managed by Level 3 Communications.  It is apparently located in Tomball Texas.  Anything managed by Level 3 Communications should be suspect.   There have been complaints made about it .   My suspicion is that Level 3 is being used by domestic debt scammers, but in itself, Level 3 is legit so far as I know.  

"Mr Evans"

Gunnar (and some others) are suspicious of your response.  Y'see, there is no proof that you are really Connor Evans, the attorney.  In addition, the original poster complained of problems with a firm, possibly entitled "Ross & Peterson", not "Connor Evans" or even "Connor, Evans and Hafenstein" (note the comma).

In addition, Peterson and Ross LLC closed several few years ago.

So, your suggestion to visit your website seems less than informative.

Of course, "John" may also not be an attorney, but that is all part of what we see on a daily basis, in 800notes.

Feel free to quote where I said I was an attorney.

Feel free to give us your physical or web address, to correct our (mis)understanding or (mis)impression.

Immature? I think not "Mr. Evans"! Visit your website? Not a chance! Do you have some idea that the regulars on this site are amateurs? You had better do a little research there "Mr. Evans". You obviously have no idea of who we are here or what we do. As we speak, I would advise you to watch your website. You are going to see an inexplicable rise in hits. Hits that can't be tracked back, with IPs that can't be explained. That's if your site is even up!
Don't toy with us "Mr. Evans". We can, in mere hours, dissect you, your company, your employees & expose more information about all of you than even a talented skip-tracer will be able to believe. We're a team here "Mr. Evans". A team that even the largest debt collection firms steer well clear of. We do it for free. We carry no debt. Except the debt that's maintained to our advantage. We have no fear of debt collectors, legitimate or not.
So go ahead and respond "Conner". Tomorrow will be the first day of the rest of your life. Piss us off "Conner". The morning will be just a taste of what will be happening to your career for the rest of your life. If you paddle in to the deep end of the pool, it would be wise to be able to swim.
Skeff Ett Liv!
Gunnar

>>> Anything managed by Level 3 Communications should be suspect. <<<

No, they are the largest competitive local exchange carrier (CLEC) in the United States.  What you are saying is like saying that anyone who has an AT&T Uverse or Comcast phone should be suspect, or that anyone who arrives via a car driven on an interstate highway should be suspect.

The difference between Level 3 Communications and, say, YMAX Communications is that YMAX is a wholly-owned subsidiary of magicJack, and the issue of whether the local tariffs filed to register YMAX as a CLEC was considered by the FCC a few years ago (at that time, almost no one actually connected to them except via magicJacks).  Although their SEC filings since then seem to indicate that they now have some actual YMAX users, they are still a wholly-owned subsidiary of magicJack, and that's not only where they make nearly all of their money, it seems to be the main objective of their business to sell their services through magicJacks and similarly branded software rather than to sell CLEC phone service to other end users.

Even then, most users of magicJacks are legitimate.  Thus, even for magicJacks, you cannot conclude solely on the basis that a caller's number is a YMAX Communications number that the caller is a scammer.  I think that, in many cases, the use of a YMAX number can provide relevant additional evidence of that fact, but by itself, it is not particularly relevant.

Level 3 Communications is so big, on the other hand, that I don't think that its use can ever be deemed relevant to provide any evidence of anything.

>>> As an "attorney" you should understand more than anyone how valuable our reputation is to us. If you have any questions please contact us ... Respectfully, Conner Evans  <<<

Mr. Evans, you use the word "us" twice in the quoted package as though you were an attorney and as though you were a member of this firm, which appears to be located somewhere in Texas.  However, a search in the records of the State Bar of Texas shows no one registered as an attorney with your name, and no law firm with the name given in this thread.

So I would like to ask, are you an attorney, and if so, in what state or states are you registered?  

If you are not an attorney but are another type of employee for a law firm of any kind (yes, I know that law firms employ office managers, paralegals, secretaries, account executives, etc.), could you please point us to this web site you mention so we can all look at it?

Yo Conner,

You mean tell that you are an actor playing an attorney?  Wow that is so cool!  What is the character you will be playing and can you tell use the title of what you are appearing in? BTW, how might a I get your autograph in case you become famous.

Conner

This whole situation presents a dilemma for readers.  On the one hand fraudulent debt collectors are a huge problem.  Not only do they create a loss for consumers but even hurt the legitimate accounts receivables professionals who own the account.  On the other hand, there (as you correctly point out) the potential problem of people posting malicious and false information to hurt the reputation of business.

I would you be kind enough to post the name of your business or firm?  If so I am sure that readers could then do their own investigation and find out about the positive image of your company.

I will caution you though that regulars include several members with extensive investigative skills.  They are not "skip tracers" and the word "skip tracing" is not in their vocabulary.

I await your positive response!

Wassup Conner,

 How might we contact you?
