855-444-4130

Called my cell and left a message for my husband.  Stated that they were serving him on Tuesday with a notice of intent.  They didn't leave any info as to why or who was serving.  Just said they were from the claims dept.

Received call stating I had been "served" and needed to have valid ID available for this Wednesday as legal papers were going to be sent to my home address or place of business but never stated who was making claim against me or for what company they were representing.

Stephanie- were you ever served?

Legitimate process servers do not call to warn you, or to get money from you to stop the process.  They will deliver the notification without warning.  One way to confuse any "process server scammer" is to ask these questions:

• What is the name of the person or company suing me?
• What is the reason for the suit?
• What is the name and address of the issuing Court?
• What is the phone number of the District Clerk's office where this process is registered?

Then, check those answers against the real District Clerk info you find on the Web, for your County.  Or, ask the County District Clerk to tell you if you have a process being served.

Common opening statement of a debt scammer.  Ignore and block.  Read Slim's notes.  If there was a lawsuit being contemplated against you, you'd have heard about it from the attorney for the other party.  You'd have a paper trail.  You would not have heard about it from some scammery-scummery debt collector who refuses to give you a proper ID.

This fictitious / fraudulent company left a voicemail on my cell for my father stating that pursuant to state & federal law, they were providing a courtesy call regarding their intent to serve legal papers. The message went on to state that it was "mandatory" that my father make himself available between 12-6 with his state-issued ID to receive the papers. Of course the specified day came and went and no papers were ever served.

So many red flags, I could spot this scam from 100 miles away even if I weren't an attorney. I don't have the time to really drill down on this issue but if you receive a similar message, just know this is a regular old debt collector and no "papers" are forthcoming.  There is no legal requirement to provide a courtesy call to give notice that you will be served. I mean think about it. How many wrongdoers do you think would actually make themselves available to receive service if they had advanced notice that a process server was on the way?  It is not mandatory that you make yourself available to receive service either. The legal system does not expect you to miss work or school in order to be available to receive service. That's why the law allows you to be served wherever you can be found.

Like I said, there were numerous red flags throughout that ridiculous voicemail and unless you feel like tangling with a suspected scammer, I would simply block their calls.

One popular talkoff advises to have "two forms of ID" handy and to secure dangerous pets before the phantom server arrives. There have been worse and more absurd PDL thug scripts, but they must all be quite risible to practicing attorneys. Very few stick their necks out on this site to corroborate what is known of fake debt collectors. Your remarks and business name ID are appreciated.

1st I got a NO CALLER ID call from a Brooke Orders with LPS.  .  and the following message

that pursuant to state & federal law, they were providing a courtesy call regarding the intent of having ;legal documents being served for 2 suits against me attached to my SS #. The message went on to state that it was "mandatory" that I be available anytime after February 18 & have a  state-issued ID to receive the papers.  That is to ensure I am the person who is being sued. & for further information I can contact the filing party at 844-444-4130.

Called that number a Robert Wolfe answer the phone stating that in 2 days I would be served with the information who is suing me.  I took the advice of Slim from above who responded on 2/6  and when I began asking questions he kept saying " you will have all that information in 2 days".

I had a similar call 4-6 month ago and the same.  Maybe the next time I should play along and ask scarred and say I will pay get all the info and turn it over to the police.

I just receased the exact same call. They phone number was blocked and the voice-mail message was I wold be served with nolive of intent (didn't say intent was for) for 2 claims that had my name and social security number attached.  When I blocked my number and called back 8554444130, a Claims Officer Wolfe answered.  No agency name, no law firm, no indication of where the bill is supposed to be from. Nothing. I immediately started investigating the phone number.  I don't know anyone who doesn't send letters first!

This number called me twice. Once on Friday at work, which is a huge legal no-no, and today on my personal line. Stated he was Robert Wayne of LPS, that I am to receive a notice of intent at my residence and my work, in front of my supervisor, I might add, on Tuesday. And at the end of conversation & voicemail, Robert signs off by saying, "Good luck" or "Good luck to you." I agree with Slim that process servers do not call ahead and announce that they will be serving you. They just serve you. That's it. I suggest asking the caller those questions that Slim posted.

Received another call Dave Stephens of LPS, stating the same as others here have heard.  Returned the call this time and requested Dave but talk to lady who answered.  I was not nice to her as I already searched the number and it comes up as a scan on several searches.  She told me after I confirmed the last 4 of my SS# that she could tell me what it's about.  Told her I would not because I don't know who they are and they come up as a scam when I looked on the net.  She was polite and told me to wait until tomorrow and someone will be serving me the papers.

Have received calls from a guy claiming to be Quinn O'Malley saying I am going to be served today with papers.  Have turned this number over to the Attorney General not that will do any good.  But have called the last 3 days very annoying.

Here's an update.  Today, Feb 24, I receive a call from the elusive Dave Stephens again telling me I was getting served today(was supposed to be yesterday) and he'd be seeing me soon.  This time a local phone number came up on my caller ID.  I googled the number, pinpointed the address, and decided I was going to find him myself.  As expected, it was a home in a nice neighborhood.  Obviously not a business.  I will be calling the number back tonight and letting that person know their number is being used in a scam.  As to the 855-444-4130 number, it comes out of Jersey City, NJ.

Please read my comments posted here and let me know what you think.  Should I turn this info over to police at this point?

Receiving calls now from a restricted number leaving essentially the same message but directing me to call an 844-289-7382 number.

These [***] are relentless. FML.

These people are complete crooks, there real names are Michael mangiapane, Gustavo olivera, and towanda armor. they stold all of your personal information from there previous employer and are trying to scam you out of your hard earned money. Any monies paid to these people is not going toward your unpaid balance, instead it is going into there pockets. just take a look at there facebook profiles and see for yourself.

Got the same call from 855-213-4191 saying the exact same thing. I talked to local enforcement and detective and they both said to just block the calls and ignore them. If you don't know the number don't answer nor give them information. They said there is a lot of this going on right now and people are falling for it.

Got the call from Quinn O'Malley today...Felt shady, so I googled his name..thank you for this website...

Been receiving phone calls from Quinn O'Mally and various other individuals always stating that same thing....There are legal documents that need to be served.  Papers will be served on a given date between such and such hours with valid ID.  They say they will be tomorrow then when that day rolls around they call and give another date.  I do not answer numbers that  are not stored so this is always left on a VM.  Last two calls showed up as 888-888-8888

I just received the same call and voice mail today. I wish there was a way to stop them permanently. so happy this site cleared my confusion
