person called said they would be here within 24 to 48 hrs to put large animals up and all guns away there would be a uniformed dresses officer coming to our door.

What did these ppl say?

Are they a legitimate company.? Referring to an attorney.

They left voice mail my husband called them. We didn't know if my Attorney needed to send them letter or if we needed to call and file a report. A male states his name is sam Hopkins. Was difficult to understand who they were with.  Claims they deal with banking. We are worried about scams.

Stopping out in the next 48 hours, put away large animals and guns.  Person at the address would be served by someone accompanied by a uniformed officer.

No one gets a heads up they'll be served - it would defeat the purpose of catching you unawares.  The process server gets paid to serve you - nothing else.  This is a scare tactic designed to intimidate people into paying a bogus debt, a debt that's already been paid (or discharged in bankruptcy), or even a debt that is owed - but not to the callers.

Got a call saying am about to be served and they will be accompanied by officers in uniform and for me to put up all large animals and to put all guns sways to insure everyone's safety.

They call my state that about get serve they had my social security number they telling me put dogs and and armed officer coming to my house

Received same voicemail message about somebody coming to my home in the next 24 - 48 hours and will be accompanied by a uniformed officer.  My voicemail also stated that this is there 3rd and final attempt to send somebody to the house.  There is always someone home at my house, it's usually myself, so I know they have not tried to serve me two times already.

I ignored the call from this number. Not sure what they wanted. Didn't leave a voicemail

never leave the name of the person they are calling for, claims they tried to serve papers twice I don't even know who they are looking for

Said they had tried 2xs too serve papers about internet fraud on my behalf. Threatening me when I called back, I told him he had wrong number and he continued too verbally abuse me over some scam. Gave his voicemail and number too my attorney.

Get calls from this number. I never answer and they never leave a message.

Scam:  See 877-239-8098  800notes.  Also: 866-795-6367  This Mike Juliano makes an appears on both numbers.

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

got the same message today--"will serve you within 48 hours with an armed police office-put away guns and pets for safety"
said I or my attorney shouls call 888-426-4445. gave info to attorney/FBI and sheriffs dept. Never said what the supposed debt was.

How can I verify whether or not a debt collector is legitimate?
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.
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).

Have they shown up on anybodys doorstep?

Armed Cop and collector coming in 48 hrs.  Secure my animals and weapons. Some jetk named Mike Juliani told me to reschedule the scam if i will not be home

Definite scam.  I know by law a federal tax ID number must be given upon request.  They will not give it and told me they aren't slaves and don't have to do anything.  Put me on hold 10 times and left me and each time I call they have the next person up the food chain answer. All weaker than me.  Tried to scam my nephew about check fraud.  He's  never had checks.  Pretended to be police to him.  Demanded his ss# . Dirt bags.

Why in the world would you keep calling them back?! Once would be bad enough but to keep calling them? Just block their calls and tell your nephew to do the same. They can't attempt to scam you if they can't speak to you.
