Sorry you pathetically inexperienced Shill! Anyone with even half a brain knows not to pay a bill unless the person or company demanding it will provide WRITTEN, VALID PROOF by MAIL proving the claim. If you cannot provide a letter of validation then you are OBVIOUSLY a fraud and have forfeited your claim to any payment. Not to mention being in violation of numerous laws covered in the FDCPA.
Get a new line of work you scam. The doors are slamming on fraudulent collectors in this country and all your jobs are being out-sourced overseas. It'll be back to dish-washing for you.

RPS called me today, and when.I called back, the woman "Blanche" I spoke with hung up after being rude. We contacting the company we owed to, and they did not turn it over to this "debt collector". They called my husband from a cell phone number only 1 digit off of his cell number. SCAM!

This is a scam company that buys out of statue of limitations debt for pennies on the dollar.  They act as if they are attorneys.  It is illegal.  Go to the FTC website and file a complaint against them.  The FTC has shutdown several of these companies in California froze their assets and arrested the owners. Do not fall for their scam.  Report them.

RPS is now DRI Dynamic Recovery Inc. I have gathered information on these people and will keep updating

I have been doing some research on to this company and it's practices are no where near professional. Their CEO and his partner instructs employees to get violently verbally aggressive against the debtors in order to force payment of debt. They were also located in Daytona under the name of Legal Recovery services. While there, they collected thousands of dollars which their clients suggest they never received their appropriate share. When they called to address the matter they get told the president of the company Mr.Haywood Merritt has ceased doing business and the company has closed. That he is the only one who would have access to the accounts. Which, if you do your proper research you find that the Haywood Merritt, president of Legal Recovery and Charles Merritt, president of Dynamic Recovery both worked together at Legal Recovery. When asked why the company ceased doing business,you are met with a scripted response. This is the scripted response you receive:

On September 12, 2012, Legal Recovery Systems ceased doing business. All employees were discharged for lack of funding. Mr. H. ****** ****** is the CEO and sole shareholder of said company. All banking accounts are in his and/or the company name, wherein he is the sole signatory.
Your contract, is with Legal Recovery Systems, Inc. All payments by debtors were made to Legal Recovery Systems, Inc. and deposited into the aforementioned accounts by H. ****** ******. All funds earmarked for litigation cost were made and deposited in the same manner by the same person.
Legal Recovery Service, Inc., regretfully, cannot assist or facilitate in whatever action you deem necessary against H. ****** ****** and/or Legal Recovery Systems, Inc. We did not assume any of the debt or outstanding obligations as we are a new entity with no ties to H. ****** ****** or his company. No one but the President and CEO of Legal Recovery Systems, Inc., has access to or knowledge of the status of his finances or client base.
We suggest you direct all your inquires directly to Mr. H. ****** ****** through the following:
Mr. H. ****** ******

I will include links to the Better Business Bureau that have some complaints on there. With further research you will see that this is not just an isolated case and seems to be rapidly growing. Their practices are illegal. It is called collections harassment. Their in ability to give clients their share is theft and is a felony offense. Possible money laundering which is a Federal offense. If you are offered a position by this company, it is imperative that you turn it down. I am including a verbatim copy of their "basic" script which they tell you to you use until that they are making excuses. Then they want you to talk over, get loud, take complete charge of the call by threatening consumer with court, liens, arrest, etc. If you are asked for a supervisor, you are supposed to tell them "I am the supervisor". If they ask for the Lawyer on Site, you are supposed to say "I am one of the Lawyers on Site". There are reports of them posing as law and government officials and even appearing at debtors house and threatening them. Here is the verbatim copy of the script which I will add a scanned copy of as well.

IF ANSWERING MACHINE:

Hello (You are told to not say hello, so you will see it scratched out on copy) this message is for (debtor's name), this is (your name) with the offices of DRI. IT IS IMPERATIVE that you cantact my office IMMEDIATELY regarding a serious issue involving yourself. You can contact me directly at show contact info When calling reference case number (give case #). HANG UP! (You are told not to say thank you or have a nice day.)

IF DEBTOR GETS ON PHONE:

Mr./Mrs. (debtor's name), my name is (your name) and I am with the offices of DRI, we have been retained by: (client's name) regarding an outstanding obligation owed by you in the amount of :(give amount) and what our client has instructed us to do is to proceed immediately with the filing of litigation against you UNLESS you and I can come to some sort of out of court resolution TODAY and that is the purpose of my call.

AT THIS TIME THE DEBTOR WILL START TALKING LISTEN TO THEM. IF THE DEBTOR STARTS DISCUSSING THINGS YOU DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THEN SAY THIS:

Look, (debtor's name) without discussing the merits of the case right here and now, really all I need to know is if you want to resolve this obligation TODAY IN FULL and if so we can do a check over the phone RIGHT NOW.

IF DEBTOR SAYS YES THEN GET THE CHECK INFORMATION (ROUTING #, ACCOUNT #, CHECK #) AND LET THEM KNOW YOU WIL DRAFTING PAYMENT TODAY AND THEN END CALL.

IF DEBTOR SAYS NO AND IS DISPUTING THEN SAY THIS:

Well I am sure that my client did not pull this debt out of thin air, and having said this, how much do you think you owe?

IF DEBTOR SAYS NOTHING THEN SAY: Ok we will see you in court! HANG UP!

IF DEBTOR GIVES YOU AND AMOUNT LESS THAN WHAT THE CLIENT WANTS, THEN YOU SAY:

Ok I will call my client right now to see if they will accept that amount and if they do I'll call you back to close the case with a check over the phone. IF THE DEBTOR SAYS OK THEN DO AS YOU SAY!!!!!!! (Yet no attempt to call the client is actually made).

IF DEBTOR SAYS I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, THEN GO FOR PAYMENT TERMS SUCH AS: HALF NOW AND HALF IN A WEEK, 2 WEEKS, OR A MONTH, 1/2 NOW AND SO ON.....


What the script doesn't say, but what they tell you to do is this: If the debtor is deceased, ask about
the Executor of the Estate. Get information and call them. If no EoE then mark as deceased and move to the next. If they claim wrong number, ask how long they have had the phone, if they know the debtor, if they are friend or family of the debtor. They tell you not to be polite, but be forceful and over bearing. Never let the debtor get control of the call. Their address is 218 B E. New York Ave. DeLand, FL 32724. I beg you all to do your research on this company and help me bring a stop to it. This is getting out of control.
