844-557-1320

I received call from this number also, 844-557-1320 stating I had complaint and had to call by 10pm or action would be taken against me in Illinois

I ignored the call, and they ended up calling my sister asking for me and using the verbiage similar to what you got, only in a different location that I have not been to...ever.

 The fake process server/location finder extortion SCAM usually consists of the following:

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 then they will 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 must be served within a certain amount of time.  Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there really is 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 complaints with the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

A person purporting to be Jesse Colin (sp?) from Anderson and Associates on a pending action by Weld County, CO, Reference #125840. She claims that there is a pending action and to call 844-557-1320 by the end of the day or further action will be taken. She said Dean Pefley, my Son-In-Law, is the subject of this "action" but she called my number which is not associated with Dean Pefley.

Received a call from same #, identified himself on behalf of Anderson & Assosciates and needed me to contact them today or they would act on behalf.  I originally ignored the call until my mother called and stated she had just received a message from this same man.  When I called I was informed that I owed a company that I never remember doing business with.  The girl that I talked with was unable to tell me anything except what I owed and to who allegedly.  They gave me a 48 hour timeframe to research the call.  I took the time and googled and found this information.

I received a call from 844-557-1320 Saying; this is the second attempt to reach out to Mrs. Douglas Kemp about a complaint and that she is required to call 844-557-1320 with a case number by the end of the day. I'm not that person and don't know the person. caller ID says it came from Lynden Intl

Claims that this # is a Mitigation Firm for Anderson and Anderson and are giving me the chance to make good on a CC that I opened in 2003 and that was failed to follow through with payment arrangements in 2007.  When I asked why this debt wasn't on my credit report and part of my Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, she said that because I failed to follow through with payments in 2007 they were allowed to pull this credit card from my credit report and then when then bring it back around basically "dodging" the bankruptcy .  I had that phone call to either agree to pay back the original amount of the CC of 3000.00 or if I refused and they would file a judgement it would be 7000.00-8000.00 with fees.  I had the option of three payments or in full.  They had called my dad who took the info but did not give out my info.  These people had my address, last 4 of my SS#, Make and Model of Car, both of my frequently used emails.  They wanted a valid email to use because all correspondence was done via email only (odd).  I told her I did not have a valid email  I was instructed to make a new one and call her back. She threatened if a judgement was filed in the next 1-2 months they would put a lien on my car which is paid off.  Maddie Reiz, the woman who called, made me promise to pay $100 by the end of May 2022 "a show of good faith".  I have a call into my attorney.

All of this is BS.  Do not pay them one red cent.

Scam make them send info

Got the voicemail from anderson and associates for my brother, my number isn't even associated with him. If they can't find him (he's currently in jail) that's their problem. So dumb!

Just got a call at 9:23 am May 26,2022, didn't answer but left a voice mail. I did save it. Stating a complaint in Valley County which don't know where that is with Case#. Needed to call back today at 1-844-557-1320. If I didn't they will move forward with out my consent.

I'm going to send the notice onto a lawyer I've worked with in the past.  It sounds like they are trying to collect on an old debt that was written off.  Claiming to be mitigatory agency and that because my bankruptcy failed (back in 2007 or 2008) that the original agency can collect on the original debt.  They claim they are not a collection agency so they don't have to follow the FDCPA.  It sounds very scam like.  The threat of taking it to court was mentioned and that they could file without my consent.  I've not paid them anything and will not setup a plan until I can find out if I can talk to some local lawyers about the validity of this.

Quote:

collect on an old debt that was written off

Written off is simply an accounting term used to take the asset off the books.  That doesn't mean that you don't still owe the debt.  Now, bankruptcy on the other hand means that the debt was discharged by a Federal Judge and it is illegal to attempt to collect that debt.  If the debt is before 2007 or '08 then they also can't legally sue you.  No matter what they tell you they are posing as debt collectors and must follow the FDCPA.  This is a well known scam outfit filled with scum trying to extort money from people.  Everything else you need to know has already been posted.

Got the call from Anderson and associates women named Becca Fisher, looking for my Wife. So these call had made the rounds my Wife's brother ,mother ,niece and myself. I  called the number and they told me my wife owed Chase bank a sum of money credit card never payed. I  told them good luck on collecting they said ok see you in court. So I googled the number and found you guys and a lot more. So I called them back and  laid into them and they called me back and said funny what you can find on google( that was about me I'm assuming ) I  say everyone call and prank them until they change their number and the way they do business" scamming"

They won't change the way that they do business and the best way to get them is by reporting them to Federal and State Agencies unless you can get a real address then you and everyone else can sue them into oblivion.

I have gotten a few calls in the past few days from them saying that I can pay an unpaid CC. They said they needed my e mail in order to get the paperwork to me...
