Mr. Micheals from Document Delivery Services leave a message that court documents have been served on you.

Total scam.  A phone call is not valid service of process.  Ignore and block the number.

Claims to be a collections law firm. I have never in my life had a JCPenny's card. Said they are filling suit in my local court.

1.   If they were fining a suit,  you would not be warned.
2. It is illegal to claim to be a lawyer if they are not licensed.

Some guy named Tony(No announcement of they are, so no authority whatsoever.) called about a "file" that is being reviewed for a "complaint". You will never be warned about a suit via a telephone call. You will always receive a "register" mail, so the IRS or whoever can confirm that you received the document. THIS IS A SCAM. DO NOT EVEN RESPOND.

just got a call from this number,  notifying me of a file that was being reviewed for OUR pending lawsuit (??) and if I didn't respond they would continue with out my consent... who are these people!!!!!

They are scammers.  Debt scammers.  Basically they are trying to scare money out of you.  Don't fall for it.

Ignore and block these calls. If you were the subject of a pending civil lawsuit, you'd have received a letter from the attorney for the other party.  You'd have a paper trail.

Then, if a case was filed, you'd have received a summons delivered to you by someone licensed to serve process in your locality.  You would NOT have first heard about any civil law case from some scammery-scummery debt collector who cold calls you and starts demanding money.

You can check this out yourself by simply going down to the local main civil court and checking the defendants civil list.  The court clerks are usually glad to help and are familiar with these kinds of scams.

Just because someone on the phone calling you says you owe a debt does not mean you actually owe it.

If a voice on the telephone claims you owe a debt:

1.    Demand the person give you his or her name, company name, and address
2.     Demand a debt validation letter by US mail.  E-mail no good.
3.    Do not pay  the collection agent or anyone else a  dime until the debt is validated

Of course they won’t do this, no scammer ever will, so simply ignore them and block their calls.

If they are bothering you, report them:

http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection (Threatening civil proceedings with no intent to follow through, or threatening criminal process in order to collect a civil debt is a  violation of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.)  The same goes for endless telephone harassment

Also contact your local attorney general

If they continue to bother you,  and you know you do not owe any money, tell them that you know this is  a debt scam and that you are making a complaint to the police for extortion.  Once you get a copy of the police report and they call you again , just read out the  file number and the name of the PD or Sheriff’s office involved.   Tell them you’ll be glad to send a copy to them at whatever address the jack***es are working out of now.

You'll probably have to yell at them and talk over them.  Tell 'em  no scammy debt collector is going to push you around.

You have to get tuff with these people because,  being akin to thugs, brute force is (metaphorically speaking).   the only thing they understand.
