You do realize that Kristal posted here 5 years ago right?  Did you expect here to keep coming back here to check to see if someone replied to her 5 years later?  If you really need to know, then read the following:
It is incumbent upon them to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it.  Not the other way around.  If you paid the fine, then you should have a receipt for it from the courthouse, which is all the proof you need.
Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) 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 receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.

A lot of serious complaints about this group.  Seems they don't do a good job of contacting the right people even if they have been contracted by local governments to collect fees.  And apparently when given all the personal information they need.  Could be they are using a shotgun approach--send out letters to anyone who might have the same name as the party they are looking for and see who responds.  A lot of governmental agencies use GILA.

they are looking for some one who does not even live here..
But they have call everyday for the last 4 week except on Sunday
now I am sending all the information to the Texas AG for harassment
this is [***] up

This no. (5125328633) had been calling our landline. The message does not state who the call is for, and to call a 800#.  If we have any legal matter (none that we know of), aren't we supposed to receive a letter, a certified one? Phone calls are not dependable - whoever has this legal matter could have given them a wrong no.?

This call is coming to a business is  unsolicited and needs to stop.

Please stop calling people. Go F**K yourself.

caller ID reads :: BRUCE CUMMINGS :: Left message about putting  a lien on my property in Texas. Great news! We've never been in Texas!

The company I work for gets calls numerous times a day from this place.  Our phone lines are set up where if one line is busy the call rolls to the next available line.  We have so many phone numbers I don't even know what they all are.  I have tried to give this company the numbers that I do know, including our MAIN phone number which is the number everyone gives out that works here.  They insist that they don't find any of the numbers that I give them in their system so there is no way for them to stop the ROBOCALLS.  The recording doesn't give the name of  who they are looking for so we have NO IDEA who to let them speak with.  I did speak with RAMON OBENA at Municipal Services Bureau today, and informed him they better figure out a way to make the calls stop or figure out who they are looking for when they call or I would be reporting them to the FTC.

Must be a real important matter if its a automated call. This isn't a sales call... this isn't something else... that's when I hung up and blocked the call. Total BS.

They were looking for someone I don't know and had my number I've had for 10 years.  I recommend you call them back and find out what you want. They said they would remove my phone # from the auto-dialer in 48 hours. We'll see.  They've called before for other unknowns so it makes me wonder how they get the phone numbers to call.

All you have to do is, "Tell them to stop calling" and they're not suppose to call anymore.  You can put a law-suit against a company if the continue to call once you have requested for them to STOP.

I agree, this is a possible scam.  I had a company call me, stating they were trying to collect money on a debt.  I reported the number to LIFE LOCK and they looked into this situation.  They people were arrested

They get your personal information from the government agencies they contract with.   Problem is, what do they do with that information?   You wonder how much security these contractors really have..  Or what they really do with it.

This is a ligit company that takes all kinds of old forgotten debts and tries to convince (fool) people that they need to pay up.  They are bottom feeders looking to get some fool to pay them for a debt they purchased from the original creditor but never was able to collect.  If they collect any money they keep it.  Most likely they paid pennies on the dollar for the debt.  It's an old debt that was written off as a loss and sold to someone else.  They use a robo caller cause it's cheaper than a real person.  Make sense?

They may be a "legit" company(from Texas) but their business tactics are illegal and immoral. They threaten and pressure you to pay nonexistent obligations.

Robo call saying this is Municipal Services Bureau calling about an important matter. And to call them back they are open until 11pm tonight. Well that's not going to happen. Caller ID had Gila Corp

They have been calling me for 18 months. They don't realize that they have been blocked for over a year  So much for robots. We do not owe anything so do not know why they continue.  I have reported this to a friend who is with the local police, and she said that this was a scam.

Have no idea what they want or who they are!

the caller ID said GILA Corp, 512-532-8633, left a msg saying they are not a sales call, to call them back at 800-295-0851. Not calling. We have no outstanding debts, and no one knows our landline number, so they can kiss my butt.
