Robocall threatening legal action.

I also have gotten 6-7 call from AQRN LOC SVCS. One time it came up as SPAM RISK then they called with same number and it came up AQRN LOC SVCS. They have called from different Florida numbers all with different area codes

after a few calls I called them back, was told it was a robocall and I would be removed from the list, then hung up on, we'll see.

They call from various numbers from the same area code as mine I’m guessing hoping I answer. I block. The voicemail that’s left is threatening lawsuit, wage garnishment and various other penalties. Leaves a long case number. BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK

Have called daily for a week leaving robo-voice messages that threaten legal action due to a debt. I have no debts to anyone.

Been receiving calls various calls a day sometimes every day several times a day they are a scandalous outfit first thing they ask you for your private information do not give it to him simply hang up and block their numbers if you can

I’ve received numerous calls from different area codes and phone numbers from all over the country. All of them show up on called ID from Aqrn Locate Svc. It’s always the exact same bot that leaves the exact same voicemail threatening legal action over a debt I supposedly owe but they never mention who I owe or how much. It’s always supposedly the last time they’ll call but they’ve called almost daily for about 2 months now.

The fake process server/location specialist scam usually contains:

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 they 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 have to be served within a certain amount of time.  Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there is actually 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, email, or text (postmarked in the case of a letter) within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. Unless they have communicated it to you verbally at the beginning of your conversation. It also must contain the “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 communication 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 communication 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 a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

Aqrn loc svcs.  Has called me almost daily an has threatened me with legal  lawsuit  wage garnishments  ect.     They say I have a out standing debt with a payday loan company  that they bought the debt from.   I have asked the to produce  the files    they have not done so but all Dailey.      I have had my credit run professionally  an there is no such thing any where on it.   What can be done about this. It is now starting to effect my job.    They leave a nasty voice mail when you don't answer

I received a call from the number, first it was one of those pre-recorded calls.  He said that there was a legal action against me and that there was a lawsuit pending garnishing my wages, take my home away etc.  I am scared I am 69 year old person.  What can I do

For starters, be aware this is a scam, since they can't simply take your home or garnish wages without a Court Order, meaning they first have to take you to Court and win.
Second thing is you can read the post by BigA for some info about this kind of scam.
