firm got busted and shut down by NYS Attorney General's office:http://www.wivb.com/dpp/news/debt_collection_business_shut_down_090623

They will not stop calling over a dept that was charged off of my friends account in 1998.  Wow!!!I think I found a way to track them down....

A Marcus Truant called from this number claiming to be with Special Litigation Consultants Services.  He said there was a civil complaint a***nst us and we should call back to settle out of court. We got a case number and called back.  When questioned as to why we were not served papers they said they were trying to keep us out of court. When we would not give personal information they told us we blew our chance and ***g up on us...  Clearly a scam...

This is a group of people currently taking advantage of people across the United States. They go by a variety of names and phone numbers -- some of the names they use include Global****et Investigations, Worldwide Recovery Services, Worldwide****et Investigation Services and North American****et Investigation Bureau (NAAIB). Last year they were operating out of Cleveland, OH, until they were shut down -- the Cleveland BBB named them as one of the top ten scams of 2007 (http://cleveland.bbb.org/WWWRoot/SitePage.asp ... 19642b&art=4334).You can get more info here: http://www.budhibbs.com/debtcollectorpages/NAAIB.htm.They will probably continue using this MD number until they get shut down a***n, then s**** using a new area code, but the MO is always the same: they call and identify themselves in a way that implies they are either working for a lawyer, the court system, or the police department (all of these misleading statements are illegal); tell you that there has been a civil case filed a***nst you, they give you a case number, and tell you that you must contact them before a warrant is sworn out a***nst you. When you contact them, they tell you that they are investigating a debt that is 10, 12, 15 or so years old; they'll name some bank you've never heard of, or a credit card you've never heard of. They'll have just enough information about you to make you nervous and they'll be phishing to find out more information. They'll tell you that the debt is some ridiculous amount -- let's say $10,200 for an example -- but if you're willing to pay today, they'll reduce it to, for example, $650. But they can't give you an address. Instead, they will ask for your bank account or credit card number. They'll tell you that if you don't settle on the phone with them that moment, a sheriff will appear at your door within 48 hours to arrest you. NONE OF THIS IS TRUE. Complaints have been filed to the AG of OH, MD, TX, NY, and IL, as well as to the FTC, FCC, and the FBI (as they are trying to illegally extort money over the phone). They often target the elderly and infirm. Do not speak with them, and save whatever messages they leave on your phone. If you get a phone call, file a complaint online with the following organizations:http://www.oag.state.md.us/Consumer/complaint.htmhttps://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/FTC_Wizard.aspx?Lang=enhttp://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htmas well as the Attorney General of your own state. Remember: whether the debt is yours or not, you should not be dealing with these people. They are not a legitimate organization.PLEASE -- file a report. You were smart and savvy enough to do research on this number; not everyone is that lucky. REPORT THEM!!!

Glad you guys realized they were scam artists before they got any money out of you.

Revieved threats of legal action being taken for a supposed debt.Caller was rude and identified himself as "Mark Anthony".

Received threatening phone calls from this number and they say I owe a debt.. they have my street address .. phone number... occupation...and the company they say I owe...they are threatening to send an officer to my house with a warrant or supena ...and they are saying so****ing to the effect about a watch dog in new york company... they sound crazy... I talked to my attorney and if they do send a summons to my house.. which I don't live in maryland.. I live in wva... my attorney says he will take care of the problem... I will not pay these people ... because I know they are not a legimate company...one of them actually called my grandson an arrow head.

We got a call from them and they did the same thing to my husband. They told him he was being "evasive and illusive" and that there would be criminal charges for "theft of goods or services"!!! This turned out to be over a debt that was discharged in a bankruptcy!! My lawyer said it was illegal collection procedures. When I got a hold of them, they said they would "notate" that they would not call us a***n. I was livid cause my husband has a bad heart. Then, a few weeks later, we got ANOTHER call from them for the SAME debt!! I tried to call this number back. It will ring and ring but, I found out by calling from my cell at the same time, this is ONE line!!! I continuously called back for a half an hour straight! (I could have done it all day if I had to:)) After 10 minutes, they s****ed picking up and ****ing up on me. After a half an hour of  calling repeatedly, to get the company's name and address in case they called us a***n, someone finally answered a "Daniel Hoffmann". He was P O'd!! He said, "you can't just keep calling our number repeatedly!" I said, "How do you like it? You're not supposed to call mine either" He said the company's name was "Litigation consulting services" but refused to give us the address. Needless to say, I had a long conversation with him and requested they cease and desist contact with us because they were using illegal collection procedures and causing my husband undue stress and he has a life threatening heart condition! They ARE there at that number. They just choose not to answer it. They REALLY seem to dislike it if you call repeatedly. Ironic, huh??

called & said "special investigator ..." i asked them to hold on a moment & when I went to get the person they asked for they ***g up (within 50-70 seconds). That # call here all of the time but usually when I pick up, there is just silence.

She Told Me She WAS Special Agent Alveriaz?(not sure how to spell it), Iv'e had calls like this before and I type in the phone number, and it's a company that they hire to try and get their money. The last time the BBB(Better Business Beuro?) had tried to bust them, because it is illegal to call someone's house and say you are a special agent and you are going to jail. Someone had tipped them off and the ****e they had rented was empty. Right now the Ohio BBB is taking complaints, on this matter as well as the KY. BBBDon't give them any info, tell them the person is in the hospital, and see how fast they **** up!

who is this? says they are a "special agent... call right away or you are going to jail...
