    Complete scam.  First, real process servers do not call ahead to warn you.  Secondly, law-abiding, legitimate companies do not disclose that sort of information to a third party - it's illegal.  Your caller sounds like a debt scammer trying to scare you into paying a bogus debt, a debt that's already been paid, or even a debt that is owed - but not to the caller.

    How can I verify whether or not a debt collector is legitimate?
    UPDATED 8/26/2014
    Here are a few warning signs that could signal a debt collection scam:

    The debt collector threatens you. Legitimate debt collectors probably won't claim that they'll have you arrested or claim that they or their employees are law enforcement officers.

    The debt collector refuses to give you information about your debt or is trying to collect a debt you do not recognize. You have certain rights to ask a debt collector to verify the debt. You can use this sample letter to request this information. Ask for an explanation in writing before you pay.

    The debt collector refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number.

    The debt collector asks you for sensitive personal financial information. You should never provide anyone with your personal financial information unless you are sure they're legitimate.

    GET HELP
    Submit a Debt Collection complaint

    We’ll forward your issue to the company, give you a tracking number, and keep you updated on the status of your complaint.

    Tell us your story, good or bad, about your experience with consumer financial products.

    If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

    Ask the caller for his or her name, company, street address, telephone number, and professional license number. Many states require debt collectors to be licensed. Check the information the caller provides you with your state officials, or the state in which the debt collector holds a license. If the caller refuses or is unable to provide you with information about his company, or if you can’t verify the information he provides, do not give money to the caller or company.

    Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." This notice must include:
    The amount of the debt
    The name of the creditor you owe
    A description of certain rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
    If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, consider requesting this information in writing or seeking assistance before paying the debt to make sure the debt, and the company, are valid.

    Tip: You can consider sending the collector a letter requesting the information by using one of the CFPB's sample letters. You can also submit a complaint to the CFPB or you can contact your state Attorney General’s office.

    Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know the company or person you are talking with is a real debt collector. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft such as:
    Charging your existing credit cards
    Opening new credit card or checking accounts
    Writing fraudulent checks
    Taking out loans in your name

    Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate – but you think the collector may not be – contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.

    Report the call. Submit a complaint with the CFPB or get in touch with your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers.

    Stop speaking with the caller.If nothing else works and you believe the calls are fraudulent, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files.
    Tip: You can use this sample letter to write a letter demanding the debt collector stop contacting you. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.

    Tip: If you're having trouble with debt collection, you can submit a complaint with the CFPB online or by calling (855) 411-CFPB (2372).

    FYI: the links included don't show up here, so you'll have to go to the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau's website at the first link at the top of this comment to see the letter samples you can send.

    Yep, Samara Reed is apparently very busy and able to jet all over the country just to serve people imaginary legal papers. She'll be at my *old* house (we moved 18 months ago) between 10 and 2 and if I'm not there she's just goign to mark Refusal to Sign and get an automatic judgement. I find it hilartious since I know the laws regarding debt collection very well and she is breaking several of them leaving these harassing messages on my voicemail (that doesn't have any identifying info, just says the number). Tsk Tsk Samara, if you get caught, you're going to get sued by someone that knows the law and hires an attorney... Like for real sued, not your "legal papers" suits...
