I love 800notes!!!!!! "Phylicia" from "Preston, Clark and Associates" called and left VM for me about an "action pending filing" today. Thanks to info provided here by 800notes users I was able to eventually come across this post:

Preston, Clark and Quinn Associates aka PCQ Associates,  is located at 27720 Jefferson Ave., Ste. 210, Murrieta, California, and is managed by James Robert Cork, who lives on Ravenwood Dr. in Murrieta, CA.  PCQ is connected to multiple other offices, including GCCS, LV and V Associates, PLS Associates and BG and M Associates.  BG and M Associates, is run by Barbara O’Neill. Smythe, Stone and Crum aka PLS Associates, is run by a questionable character be the name of Ahmad Zubair Amozgar (he just got “promoted to his own office a year ago).  LV and V is located in Corona, under the name of Bernie Gomez.

Further, the name of an attorney that these offices have been using, at least for letterhead purposes, have turned up at all offices.  I spoke with this attorney today and he confirmed that he “represents” all three offices but claims he did not know the extent of the illegality involved.  While I do not believe this attorney’s claim of ignorance, out of courtesy I have agreed to withhold his name, at least until such time as my investigation is complete.  I will say that the contact person for his law offices, per the documents produced from the various aforesaid collection agencies, all list a John Alarcon as the contact person.  My research indicates that John Alarcon was involved in at least two lawsuits wherein he was sued, along with an attorney, for among other things, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, etc.  some of the allegations where that Mr. Alarcon falsely represented himself as an attorney, and was actually a signatory to attorney-client fee agreements.  Mr. Alarcon was served these lawsuits  in June of 2011 at 495 East Rincon Ave., #175, Corona, CA…..does this address sound familiar to anybody!!!  Alarcon’s co-defendant, attorney, Raymond Carl Prospero, was disbarred in 2012.  Now Alarcon is the contact person for aforesaid collection agencies.

Alarcon now runs a business called “Community Law Center” in Corona, CA.  The lawsuits filed against him are in Riverside county, case no.’s RIC 1108501 and RIC 1107045.  He is also prominently mentioned in the disbarment paperwork of Raymond Prospero in 2012.

Two federal lawsuits have also be filed against Bernardo J. Gomez dba LV and V Associates for violations of the FDCPA.  Ahmad Amozgar also has two federal lawsuit filed against him for violations of the FDCPA, one for NLS Associates and one for Direct Resource Capital dba DRCC.

What is clear from all the foregoing is that this is a huge operation, well worth the FTC’s time.  Further, because of the efforts to de-centralize the offices, and to have each manager get their own “crews”. along with other evidence we have obtained out of Corona, it is clear that the real owners have had experience with FTC investigative techniques and procedures.

Employees for PCQ and Associates, 27720 Jefferson, Ste. 230? (I forgot to look when I walked in lol)

Got a call from (866) 232-8548. Their debt collector scam. I get tons of debt collectors scammer so be aware. They don't even use their real name. Don't fall for their trick. If anything block their number or file a complaint against them.  #Scam #Scam #Scam

someone called from a blocked number and left 866-232-8548 said case # is 33229 never heard of the people they were asking for and said someone named Skylar or TEA has a pending lawsuit
this sounds like a SCAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
SCAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

I got a call from 866-232-8548 it showed up as unavailable on my phone and the lady said she was calling from Clark and assoc.and that she had someone file a complaint against me and I should call 866-232-8548 to address the matter.  She also gave case # 332--   SCAM SCAM.

Got a call from the exact number saying I had a "complaint" filed against me for a case file of 332--. SCAM

So they handed you papers and said show up? What are the circumstances of the papers saying? I am curious as I have a feeling someone is going to come to my door and do the same damn thing.

This is a phishing scam.  Plain and simple.  DO NOT give them any info including your address.  They may have some info on you but do not "verify" anything if they ask.  The info that they currently hold on you they got through putting your personal info into the wrong type of website or in other ways.  They claimed that they were going to send someone over here as well to get me, to serve me with papers, all kinds of stuff.  They are "sending the authorities" blah, blah, blah.   Just so you know, I am still waiting.  I wish someone would come to my door...lol.  I live in a "right to stand your ground" state...in other words trespassers can be shot.  God bless America.  Anyway, where was I?  Oh yeah, waiting.  Waiting for papers.  

The other person who posted on here probably works for them too.  You do know ANYONE can post on here right?

They will try to scare you and get any info that they can possibly get on you to "close the loop" and add to info that they have already obtained on you through phising.

Update...

I'm still waiting

Someone Served you?

Fine.

Now, tell us:

1.  Name of court
2.  Address of court
3.  Date case was filed
4.  Case number
5.  Names of the parties
6.  Attorney for plaintiff.

You can't object, since this is now all public record.

UPDATE...

I'm STILL waiting...sigh.  I was just looking for a reason too.

Don't let these [***] scare you.  They are liars.
