Trying to collect on a non-existent debt. Will not provide information on who they are, what authority they have, what their address is, etc.
Bogus!

Same as most of what I am reading above.  Caller started with a mean directive tone. Asked who the owner was.  Tried to get me to tell him my owners cell # and email address.  Got threatening about a lawsuit and litigation as I would not give out that info.  Super RUDE and for sure had to be scammer.

This company Just called me while I was attending a funeral!  The guy would not stop talking and questioning me he did not care to  listen to my surroundings!  I don't even know who they re looking for or why they called for I hung up on him since he could not be courteous I had to be rude.  I do not have a  debt nor do I plan on paying anyone else's debt they think I owe!  I will follow a lawsuit against them if I am EVER HARRSSED by them again!

The bigger question would be why you have your phone on at a funeral and why would you answer it?

Brian turner is a scumbag. He should do us all a favor and eat a bullet!!!!! I wish I could rip people off and get away w it.  Actually I have a job and some self respect so I'm glad I don't rip off people.
Levitton law is a group of scumbags and should be put under.

Fraudulent accusation of a past due account. Called back several times as well as emailed. Never have I gotten a reply.

Got this one too

The nearest pending litigation against my business.

Call from JOHN STARK  ext 411.  Got message from John Stark about pending litigation.  Next day got another voicemail about payment of collection or go to litigation.  Funny thing it was a different voice.

This "law firm" left a message for my company owner. He said he was Matthew Heyward and was representing Monster World Wide.
Gave me the same number listed here with extension 458.  Next time he calls I will know what to say now that I found out it's a scam.  I did not give the message to the company owner.

This guys are fake as they don't even know who the debt is owed to so report scam they have been doing this with a first nation band and continue to harass them .

I received this exact message in an email today.  The guy has left 2 voice mails threatening further action.  He must have gotten my email from my voice mail.  Glad I found out others are receiving the same harassing calls and it is a scam!  Thanks

I can assure you that we are not "fake" debt collectors. I am licensed in Illinois and the District of Columbia. The PO Box is our mailing address.

These guys have been calling our company for a few months.  Their website is incomplete and their "Facebook" contains no pictures or posts. I can't find them listed with the BBB in Illinois, nor do they have a listing in the yellow pages.   Michael Ashley and Matthew Heywood are two of the names of the "lawyers" that have called and left messages, but so far I have been unable to confirm that either of them are actually lawyers.  (NO listings ANYWHERE!)     This is definitely fishy!  Screams scam.

Don A. Leviton, who is supposedly their supervising attorney seems to actually be an accredited lawyer, who graduated sometime in the 80's.  I'll be trying to get in touch with him directly and asking for full accreditations.

Has anyone actually been taken to court by this "firm"?  We keep getting voicemails and threatening e-mails from a "David Katz" and I found this article online:

https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20160502/civ ... ers-accounts-da

Not sure if it's the same person, but it's funny that this is what comes up when you search him online.

Keep receiving rude calls with vague info about a breach of contract.  Info keeps changing.  Called my sheriff and the state attorney general, both told me it's a common scam going around.

I recieved a call back in August of 2016 regarding an account with Vantiv. I recieved an email and 2 phone calls. How are they getting this information? Me being a fool I paid them for the debt especially when they threatened me to take me to court. They had the file number, the exact owed amount, and my contact. Someone please twll me how to get my money back if that is even possible?

if you are being harassed by this company, file a complaint with the Illinois State Bar:

These people keep calling about a lawsuit but no one answers the phone when you call back.  Glad I found this site.

This company started calling me about three months ago. I have told them repeatedly that I do not owe (Blank) Company the $4,900 they are claiming. Every call is supposedly the "Last day before their Client files a lawsuit". I told them that I would happily see them in court, no problem. It is not the first time some idiot has tried to sue me. He advised that it will cost me more to fight it than to pay the alleged $4,500 owed. My response was that I have spent over $400,000 in lawyers in the last two years dealing with idiots like himself. Then I was told that I must be one of those cocky people that has money and doesn't want to pay his bills...... Here is his response

The above captioned matter has been referred to our office for immediate action. We have obtained all relevant notes of conversations, e-mails and documentation from our client and its collection agency. This communication is being sent as a courtesy, so as to allow you a final opportunity to resolve your breach of contract voluntarily before our client makes this a public matter via civil litigation and is left no choice but to notify the appropriate State and Federal regulatory agencies of your ongoing non-compliance.

In light of your repeated failures to address this matter responsibly, demand is formally made herewith for the full and complete payment of $4,920.00 by March 24, 2017. In the event payment is not timely made by March 24, 2017, our client intends to proceed with any and all available remedies in effort to protect its legal and financial interests.

Furthermore, in the event that you do not intend to timely make the full and complete payment of $4,920.00 by March 24, 2017, then demand is made that you produce all documents, with respect to the above captioned matter, including all letters, faxes, agreements, emails, correspondence, minutes and notes of conversations by March 28, 2017. Please advise our office when and where the documents will be available for inspection and copying and our client will arrange to have a legal document copy service reproduce these documents.

In the event there is litigation, our client will attempt to recover not only the full amount of the account, but also, if applicable, all accrued interest, applicable court costs, attorneys’ fees, and other expenses, including but not limited to deposition costs and citation fees. We also feel obligated to advise you that, in the event a judgment is awarded in our client’s favor, our client would look for evidence that would pierce your corporate entity veil, and enter litigation against you personally and all other potential principals, successors and affiliates. In doing so, our client would look at the comingling of the business assets with those of the individual principals. Additionally, our client would examine the reality of the corporate existence as evidenced by the keeping of minutes and other corporate records. Our client would explore the possibility of an obvious inadequacy of working capital, and would also determine the number of non-functioning officers and/or directors. The possibility of non-payments of dividends would be investigated, possibly coupled with payment of substantial salaries or other forms of payments to dominant shareholders. Our client would also look at all of your expenses to determine if your business was paying your personal expenses, such as excessive meals, travel, cell phone bills and automobile expenses and the legitimacy of employment of family members. Our client will seek Attorneys’ Fees against you for having to engage in any post judgment proceedings.

In the event a judgment is entered against you, our client will engage in every method of post judgment remedies to recover the amounts owed. This will include, but not be limited to, the freezing of accounts, debtor examinations, levying against your real and personal property, and filing citations against any and all parties you transact business with. Our client will trace funds and if our client finds that you have transferred assets in violation of Fraudulent Conveyances Act, it will seek to have these assets re-conveyed to you and sold to satisfy the judgment. If you are directly involved in another business which is not in your name, our client will investigate the business thoroughly and seek to have the business re-titles in your name and sold to satisfy the judgment. Our client will record a Memorandum of Judgment against you and it will negatively affect your credit, making it more expensive and difficult for you to borrow money.

As we have illustrated, the amount of any legal fees, Judgment, court costs, late fees, interest and statutory penalties would likely be very expensive for you. In order to avoid the time, expense, inconvenience and embarrassment associated with litigation, we strongly recommend that you timely pay the amount due.

AND THEN IT CONTINUES:

As it is now clear that our client must proceed with litigation, we would like to schedule some time for next week Monday or Tuesday to have a legal document copy service visit your office to inspect and make copies of the pre-litigation documents requested in my below 03/22/17 email to you. We would also like to have copies made of your corporate minutes and other related documents so that we may examine the reality of your corporate existence in order to determine whether there is any personal liability on the part of your company’s officers.  Let us know what date and time would be best.

If you have already retained an attorney, you should provide their contact information at this time.

Kind Regards,

SO, I RESPONDED.................

Dear Mr Stones,

Did Your “Copy Service” people get lost??? What happened??? I was expecting them to show up Monday or Tuesday of last week as you stated in your last E-Mail. If you need to reschedule, make sure they stop by the courthouse first to get a "Court Order”. It shouldn’t be out of their way, since the Federal Superior Court is only two blocks away. I am a little confused about the address of your "Law Firm”. Are you located in Hoffman Estates or Itasca or Rolling Meadows, Illinois??? Maybe you have a mobile home that keeps getting relocated with the numerous tornadoes in the midwest. My lawyers are anxiously awaiting your arrival, as am I. We have had enough of your endless “Stall Tactics” and imaginary “Last Day’s to settle” [***]. File a [***] suit or [***]-OFF…. Is that simple enough for you to understand?????????

(Yes, Mr Stones, not Mr Stines was a deliberate typo. He must be stoned if he thinks he will intimidate me) And YES, my lawyers are anxiously awaiting his arrival.....
