This company, Triumph Partnerships is a scavenger debt buyer. They bought an old credit card debt from HSBC credit card company and hired this Attorney Robert Scanlon to sue me for payment of a $1033.00 debt. I had requested validation of this debt several times however he refused to supply it. He then filed a lawsuit in civil court and called me to tell me that he wanted payment or he was going to " get a judgment and come take it from me " I told him I would see him in court.
He stated I had made a payment in 2003 of $37800.00 I asked him to provide the copy of that payment to which he replied " Oh we don't have things like that from so far back " This clued me into him not having any validation of this debt in which I replied to the court and stated such. A pre-trial hearing was set and I asked the judge for a dismissal as this Attorney had still not provided proof and the judge gave him another 45 days to provide it. The day before the trial I received a notice that the attorney filed to strike the court date and dismiss the case without prejudice.
This debt is on my credit report and is reported as a revolving credit which in the state of Washington has a statute of limitations of 3 years which has also passed.By dismissing without prejudice this jerk can file another lawsuit for this debt. Triumph Partnerships also re-aged the debt on the credit bureaus, I found this out by comparing my old reports to the newest one and saw the dates. This company is buying up old debts and going after anyone they can get to go after and this scumbag Attorney is more than willing to oblige. Many FDCRA violations by these people. Watch out!
