855-777-9050

Was told to call this number or have my attorney call this number in regards to a pending matter.

It's an attorneys office. Dudes name is John Stanton.

I sincerely doubt that but why don't you give us his address so that we can check and see?

It’s a scam. States it’s a paralegal with an attorneys office who is working with Premier Group to collect an old debt before they summons you. The address they provide is for a house it appears. They do not have a phone number to provide that is not toll free either. Be very careful!

I have to wonder why you didn't include the address?

Whenever someone tells you that they are a "lawyer" or that they work for a lawyer or law firm, the first question you should ask is what state(s) they are registered in and their BAR number for that/those state(s).  Then go to that state and check them out, contact them directly using the information in the state registration, as these crooks have been known to research real law firm names and attorney names and impersonate them.

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.

John Staton is claiming to be with a law office. Said that there is a civil case filed against me. Must call him to stop being served at work or home.#855-777-9050

Stated a summons has been issued to be served at my home or employment (a supervisor or HR must be present) in regards to a sealed document.

They called and stated they were scheduling for court documents. Stated lawyer John Davis for Chrysler capital.

Premier legal debt collector other numbers include 1866 312 2435 and 916898 4532 sating they are going to serve me at my residence and/or my employment with in 24 to 48 hours regarding a debt breach of contract

That still doesn't give me the address.

These people including Robbie Webber have been hounding me for years!  I called that phone number back and someone says hello, and when you ask the name of the person they say John Stanton.  Someone is posing as a attorney with fake debt collections.  All scams!

Called for a grandchild.  Said they had legal papers

"Robbie, your request is denied. Just do the best you can to deliver whatever you want, and I'll take a look at it. It's against my policy to return calls to people I am not already doing business with. You will have to mail me a letter or a bill."

Left me a voicemail to give a call back to 855-777-9050 regarding a civil case that will be opened and they are just looking for a server and to give them a call back if we want to handle this before getting a summons.

I called the number back (although they originally called from 279-214-0470) he answered saying hello so I responded hi I received a voicemail from this number and I don’t know who is calling me. He said this is John. I said okayyyyy why are you calling me? He said well who am I speaking with I said Dominique. He responded with my last four of social (in voicemail he said he wasn’t sure if my last name of it was my maiden or married but to me it was a red flag)

He said he is a paralegal and works for John Davis attorney with the premier group. I asked for the bar # and he got really annoyed and said I never know why you guys ask for it in my 22 years of doing this. I said because I want to know if this is a legit call.

Supposedly they are representing HSBC Bank which is the bank to his client I asked who is the client he said Kay jewelers. I was like Kay jewelers!? Isn’t there a statue of limitations or something. He wanted to end the phone call there and not answer any of my questions. I said that was over ten years ago. He said the amount owed is $1319.00 or I can pay $481.38 because the attorney isn’t looking to charge fees if I settle. I said again won something from over a decade ago? He said okay well then you can just wait for the summons. When I tried to ask for his name again he hung up.

John Stanton, scheduled to serve me papers with the premier group, I completely don’t trust this and will wait to see if I get served. Unlikely it will happen.

Said he was a pre litigation specialist with Premier group said there was a summons through my local county court to be served.  I’m not calling them back.

Person named “John Stanton “ called my ex-husbands family, and my current family stating it was in regard to a legal matter and I would be summoned unless u wanted to handle it prior to litigation. I tried researching Premiere Legal Group” and found NOTHING in them. This [***] needs to go to jail!

Called me using a last name I have not had for eight years called my daughter my ex-husband‘s first ex wife saying there was a litigation and I needed to call as soon as possible

Received a call from 860-337-9970 stating his name was Scott Weaver a registered courier. He left a message stating that he had paperwork in his possession that contained sealed documents involving my name and SS#.  Mentioning he is coming to my home tomorrow between 3p-5p to make myself available to sign for them and if I had any questions, to call 855-777-9050
