888-383-4324

No caller ID displayed. Left voicemail claiming he was a process server. Wanted me to call NJ Associates at 888-383-4324.

I received this call 02/01/2024.  Left a voicemail saying he is a process server and will be at my location between 2pm-5pm to sign documents today or tomorrow.  If this is not convenient, please call NJ Associates at 888-383-4324.  I figured this is a scam only because I owe no one and they did not say my name when leaving a message. Scammers!!!

Received the EXACT same phone message. To the letter. I'm hoping he shows Up!!!

Number has called every week called back and asked for company name and address to file suit but all he did was call ma a piece of s””t and hung up

I returned a call from this number after they left a voicemail.  He was calling to inform me that a process server will be coming to our home to serve a subpoena very soon.  When I tried to get more information about the situation he called me a fraud and hung up.  I called my local county clerk to see if there were any active/pending subpoenas for me and was told no.  I called JAMES back to tell him and he was extremely angry and defensive before hanging up.  I am incessantly calling him back after every hang up because I'm afraid his process server may be lost >:)

We just got a call stating the same thing . He said we were bring sued. My husband said well call me again and leave me a voice-mail with any info.
He knew our bussiness name and adress wierd thing is he said he was with R & G Associated out of Las Vegas his number came up as 702-209-0936 but was told to call 1-888-383-4324

Left message that they were going to serve me with documents today or tomorrow and to call back this number if this is a problem

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.

The process server called me from 614-300-6595. Told me that I was being sued and needed to call 888-383-4324. I was concerned so I called. This number had NO legal disclosures, and if it's a law office or debt collector office their recordings should have some legal disclosures "This is an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used for this purpose". However, this guy answered the phone and right off the cuff was super rude and aggressive. Tried to tell me I owed a $2k from 2017 and I was being sued. I laughed and explained statue of limitations and he can't sue me, statue in Ohio is 6 years for any debt. I looked up county clerk of courts and no pending suits in my name or my maiden name. I told him that I never received any mail and I had the same number for 18 years so obviously his "skip trace team" needs work because I lived at 3 different placed in the 10 years and always changed my address with the post office. Im not that hard to find, I am not paying anything until I get some sort of paper work on legal letterhead. He got mad, told me "fine they will sue me" and slammed down the phone.

I recieved call from this number calling me "gregory white" even though thats not name connectedto my phone, anyhiow it was the exact same script as this thread has. very wierd that they want this.
