I have been getting repeated calls from this number and they never leave a message.

Yeah, I keep getting calls from this number too and they never leave a message!  I haven't called them back, so I don't know about it being disconnected.

I had my boyfriend look it up; he says Google told him it's Papa's Pizza (I'm not sure which one, but it's either in Eugene or Springfield, OR).  I looked it up on Google just now, and it brought up this webpage.

I am not sure, but they may be collecting for a debt in relation with Apartment debts owed.

If they harass you, threaten, or give false information please report to Oregon's attorney @  http://www.doj.state.or.us/finfraud/concompform.shtml
and with the FTC @ https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/.

They keep calling my cell phone for someone else.  They will stop calling after I call them for two weeks,  but then they start calling again. I reported them for harassment after they started calling me again.

I was sued by Mcgavic. They sued and won a judgement,my day in court was never stated. I was to show up at a court on a day sometime. Now Derrick
Mcgavic is suing me also,the credit card company "Captiol One" used him to sue me. They won,He's suing me for his attorney fees from suing me. He has a garnished my joint account I have no income. He took my husbands Birthday
money from his 86 year old mom. So he takes money from a joint account.
The debt is mine and mine alone. How can they take money from a person that
the judgement is not againist. If it is a joint account how can they take
monies out that are not mine. He is now garnishing my account 2 xs,for the bill and now for his monies. He states I owe him 405.00 plus 9% until the
bill is paid. How can I get out of this....Will this haunt me forever.??
The letters I get I cannot understand, He would not take any payments,and wanted 700.00 a month..I make nothing.
Someone has to stop this guy and his gang. The people working there are ruthless and unwilling to work with people that are not deadbeats,but are just having a hard time with this economy.  He needs to be stopped,all the complaints againist him have not stoppped him. He would call 9 times a day
with a recording to call him back they would start at 8 am and end at 9pm
There was never a live person to talk too,sometimes back to back calls.
Shut him down.

good luck, i have tried and tried and tried to sue his ass.
oregon attorneys are all as bad as mcgavic, no one wants to face him,
not even the attorneys that have sued him and won against him dont even want to sue him again, he lies under oath, he breaks and manipulates the law. mcgavic is the bottom of all lows, he just pays his fines and keeps doing wrong and even worse no one will stop him.

not oregon attorneys.
not the oregon state bar
not oregon attorney general
not the police
and not even our president - good job obama LOSER.

not even dateline can shut this guy down.

the national counsel for consumers, ftc fcc, no one has theballs to putthis guy in his place but me and he is a big mouth all talk coward and wont even answer the phone himself and wont face me.

do not pay him, dont even watse your money on an answer he will pull some illegal stunt and it will dissappear like majic.

just dont even answer the phone, this office has not spoke to me in a year but yet they just keep calling from 2 times per day to yes i have digital caller id record 47 times in one day and over 100 calls in a 24hr period. if that is not harrassment i dont know what is.

this is a law firm that does not practice law and has no sympathy or comppassion and is not professional in any manor.

do not communicate with them.

I got two messages on my mobile phone over the past few days; recorded messages telling me to call the law office of derrick e mcgavic.  Both times they called late when my phone was off.  I received another call today at 4:40.  When I answered it, they hung up.  Interesting tactic.  If the really want to talk to me, they should speak when I answer.  But in fact, they do not want to talk to me, they want to pretend that am being unresponsive to whatever it is they are calling about.

They called here and asked for my social security number so they could locate my "file". Ha! This is a law firm???

Since .....Political moves>>>  I have begun receiving phone calls from this company  "AGAIN".  I am not sure why they are contacting me, or trying to get information from me.  First of all my telephone number is unlisted and I surely did not give it to this company. When this "female person" contacts me she is not openly identifying herself.  She is trying to get me to give her private information, which for safety reasons I do not know her, nor do I just give information over the phone to someone who calls me and demands information.  She could be anyone.  I have NOT received any demand letters or information of what they are doing as of this date May 17, 2010.  I am hanging up the phone when she requests improper information, stating "I do not know her nor do I give out private information."  So I guess this will appear that I am unresponsive or however they choose to legally word this to get the desired results to pursue law suit or whatever they are up to.  It seems like they are fishing for information.

I am very concerned that this is not a company that is working in a proper, ethical manner.  And I do understand from all the complaints that they are very organized and quick at whatever they are politically motivated at doing.

So this office keeps calling over and over and over for a person that doesn't live at this number.  We tell them over and over again, that they have the wrong number.  But they continue calling.  Sometimes as early as 6am.  I've asked the lady to please remove this number from their call list and to not call anymore.  About the third time I requested her to please STOP CALLING, the party you are looking for does not live here, she told me that she was going to have the Police come over to arrest me for "obstruction of justice".  BRING IT.

Just got ANOTHER call from these sleeze-balls.  I told them AGAIN, that they had the wrong number, that I don't know of anyone called roger at my home.  The lady would not accept "no" for an answer and informed me that she was going to have me arrested, take my kids away and have them placed into foster care.  My God, these people are SCUM!!!!!!  Somebody needs to stop them......

The best way to get over with and give them the BIG FINGER is to file a BK and let them stick it you know where!! I did it 10 years ago and I will do it again and again if I have to,

I am going to fight them as long as I can, If they win I will file a BK, ASAP after the judgment, I will make them spend their time and money to fight me first, I lost over a million dollars in the house and properties in the bad market, I am ready to file a BK, but I delayed every things until I fight them and teach them a lessen, they are so bad and made me mad  
   The best way to get over with and give them the BIG FINGER is to file a BK and let them stick it you know where!! I did it 10 years ago and I will do it again and again if I have to,  get a new fresh start

Did you know they can be sued for up to $1,500.00 PER violation under the current TCPA (Do Not Call) laws for every intentional call they make after they have been told the person they are after does not reside at your number?:

Under the TCPA, a consumer has a right to file a lawsuit and recover $500 for each call that violates the TCPA. The TCPA can also be used in conjunction with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act in some situations.  

Generally, the TCPA does not apply to debt collectors making collection calls to debtors. However, if you are subjected to calls from a debt collector and you are not the debtor, you may file a lawsuit against the debt collector under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) and the TCPA.

This right was recently recognized by Judge Legrome D. Davis in a case called Watson v. NCO Group, Inc.  NCO Group is a debt collector that uses automated prerecorded collection calls.  In this case, Mr. Watson alleged he was getting hundreds of calls from NCO Group after he got a new phone number. Mr. Watson claimed he owed no debt to NCO Group, Inc.  Mr. Watson filed suit under both the FDCPA and TCPA.

David Israel, defense lawyer for NCO, argued that the TCPA should not apply to debt collectors.  Judge Davis rejected the argument made by David Israel. The judge ruled that Mr. Watson had a right to sue NCO Group Inc under the TCPA for $500 for each call.  Judge Davis wrote;

[The] Court is convinced that a non-debtor's rights are in fact violated when he is subjected to repeated annoying and abusive debt collection calls that he remains powerless to stop.

Judge Davis' ruling was based upon his interpretation that collection calls to non-debtors violate the privacy rights provided by the TCPA.  

So what can you do if you receive "wrong number" calls from debt collectors?

1. Sign up for the Do-Not-Call registry.
2. Save the calls captured by your voice mail or answering machine.
3. Contact a consumer lawyer.

TCPA: What Is It & How Does It Affect You?

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA) does many things - including prohibiting debt collectors from calling your cell phone without your permission. Each unauthorized call could result in the debt collector paying you up to $1,500. Here's some helpful information on the Act and how it might affect you.
What is the TCPA?

The TCPA, which was signed into law in 1991 under the first Bush Administration and codified under 47 U.S.C. 227, prohibits calls using any automatic telephone dialing system or artificial or prerecorded voices to:

•Emergency telephone lines
•Telephone lines of any guest room or patient room at a hospital, health care facility, elderly home or similar establishment
•Telephone numbers assigned to paging services, cellular telephone services, specialized mobile radio services, other radio common carrier services or any service for which the called party is charged for the call
•Any telephone call to a residential telephone line
•Send unauthorized faxes
The only way that a caller won't violate the statute is if express consent has been given - and violations of the TCPA are steep. An unintentional call carries a damage amount of $500; an intentional call carries a damage amount of $1,500. That's per call and regardless of the purpose of the call. In other words, if they call you using an automated dialing system without your consent, they've violated the Act and you are entitled to damages.

How does it affect you?

Most debt collectors use automatic telephone dialing systems to contact debtors. You'll recognize this when you go to pick up the phone and there is a slight hesitation on the other end. In fact, most debt collectors are calling nearly 100 people at a time just waiting for someone to answer. Although many have stopped calling landlines, cell phones are another story. Since more and more people are using cell phones either instead of, or in addition to, traditional landlines, debt collectors are finding their cell phone numbers using skip tracers, calling them and hoping that they don't realize that the TCPA has been violated.

http://bankruptcy-law.freeadvice.com/collections/tcpa_how_it_works.html

In addition, making false threats of having you arrested, taking your kids away and putting them into foster care is a serious violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA):

§ 807.  False or misleading representations  [15 USC 1962e]

A debt collector may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of any debt. Without limiting the general application of the foregoing, the following conduct is a violation of this section:

The representation or implication that nonpayment of any debt will result in the arrest or imprisonment of any person or the seizure, garnishment, attachment, or sale of any property or wages of any person unless such action is lawful and the debt collector or creditor intends to take such action.

Keep careful logs and recordings of their calls (legal in most states) and get yourself a consumer attorney.

Do you realize it's absolutely no skin off his nose that you fight him? The fees all go back to the original creditor, so thumb your nose at your credit card company.
