This company left a message on a relative's answering machine saying I wrote bad checks and was being summoned. I answered the call and I told them if they could or were going to serve me, they would just do it and not call. They would not give the name of their company—the first guy said he was Michael Woods with Allstate Litigation, then transferred me to what I believe was BAM after I informed him of his illegal practices. The next lady I spoke to would not give a fax # or web address, and I had to wrangle the physical address out of her (I think it is a fake address because I could not find a collection company linked to it on the web). They called every hour from an unknown number until I told them what they were doing is illegal. Know your rights and let them know that YOU know&this approach scares them off the quickest because they know their tactics won't work on you. Check out Clark Howard's website for free help and info.
