888-585-0971

A woman by the name of Christina called from 302-212-4096 and left a voicemail asking for a call back at 888-585-0971
She is calling asking for my son (who is a minor) saying it's about a legal matter. I have tried calling both numbers only to get a voicemail system asking for my name & # so they can call back.  Voicemail for 302-212-4096 states it's company name is A-1 Processing and the 888-585-0971 is Central Plaza??

Spoke to a Christina she stated she was calling from Clark County Prosecuter office that I had a legal complain and it was sealed document so she wasn't sure what the complaint was about, i asked for her last name and her direct number gave me 888-585-0971 and no last name, I called the person that i spoke with said there office was located  in Ontario California I asked for Christina there's no one called Christina in that office.
Christina stated they were located in Clark County.

The fake process server/location finder extortion SCAM usually consists of the following:

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 then they will 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 must be served within a certain amount of time.  Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there really is 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 (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “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 letter 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 letter 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 complaints with the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/#crnt&panel1-1

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

I have had a couple calls from these people, though I believe the number they're calling from will not be the same because they use spam calling, so it shows up as a local number for you. But they were looking for my brother in law for some reason and he has actually passed away. They gave the same 888-585-0971 number and referenced a case ID. I will not be wasting my time calling them back, but this is clearly a scam.

Same experience. Instead this person name was Sarah and another rep who worked in litigation dept tried to stated owed a bank many years ago.  It like ok serve me and prove it.  Bring it own ! People will use desperate measures and its clearly sad
