    Be aware that extortion scams exist where victims are being harassed for fake debts. Process servers (they serve legal papers like subpoenas) don't call up targets before they show up at the door because targets can run away! This tactic is used to scare victims into paying $money for debts that may be real or fake. If there is a real lawsuit filed against you, it will be recorded in your local court so call them up and ask if there's a lawsuit against you. If there is, just wait for the paperwork and deal with it when it shows up but somehow I bet there isn't. You need to read up on the debt collection process and be ready for whatever comes.  
    The FDCPA http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre27.pdf treats the INITIAL CONTACT between collector and debtor (first call, first letter, first whatever) as a special event. Legit collectors per section 809 of the FDCPA *must* tell you at initial contact, or send you paperwork within 5 days of initial contact, the following:
    1. $amount of debt,
    2. name of the current creditor (which may differ from the original creditor who might have sold your debt),
    3. a statement that that debt will be assumed to be valid unless you dispute in writing within 30 days,
    4. a statement that that if you do dispute in writing within 30 days, the collector must mail you written verification of the debt,
    5. a statement that if you ask the collector in writing within 30 days, the collector must send you the name and address of the original creditor if it's different from the current creditor.
    If you don't get the 5 disclosures, orally or in writing (you do not have to ask for them, the FDCPA requires collectors to provide them), treat the collector like you would any SCAMMER.
    Note that 3,4,5 must be done *IN WRITING* so you will need to ask an address from your collector. If s/he refuses to give you one for any reason, treat the collector like a SCAMMER.
    The collector can threaten court action at initial contact but the FDCPA requires that the collector actually take you to court if the collector threatens it. Threatening court and not going through with it (coercion) is illegal.
    If they say the FDCPA does not apply to them because they own your debt, the debt-owner exemption only applies to the original owner. A 3rd party who buys the debt for the purpose of collecting debt is treated as a debt collector and not an owner and must obey the FDCPA as explained in this FTC Staff Opinion letter here http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/letters/arbuckle.htm 
    Has the statute of limitations for your state http://www.fair-debt-collection.com/SOL-by-State.html expired on your debt? If expired, don't pay.
    Collectors generally have to be licensed by your state to practise (collect debt) in your state and you can find out by calling your state Attorney Generals Office. Ask if a license is required and does this collector have one. If not licensed, don't pay and file a complaint with your state AG.

    The BBB has issued several alerts on this scam, just google "bbb.org alert phony debt collector"
    Report to the Internet Crime Complaint Center http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx , the Federal Communications Commission http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm , the Federal Trade Commission https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ and your state AG http://www.naag.org/current-attorneys-general.php as appropriate.

    Got a phone call at my work, telling me that they are going to deliver a summons complaint for a debt.  I called up the county courthouse, and discovered that no lawsuit has been filed.  According to their records, the statute of limitations is up in January, and it looks like they are trying hard to intimidate me.  If they really do deliver some sort of paperwork, I will be interested to find out what it says.

    I received a call from this number today with the same scam as above though now it's 2 years later and they changed there name to Global Doc Servers. They give you a number to call (855) 440-3957. That company is supposedly LVandV? I asked the rep to spell it and say the name again but she became very rude and agitated saying I already gave it to you.  She told me to give her my reference number because there's 6 different departments. I looked the company up on BBB with a grade of an F. Scam artists!!
