Just got a call from 720-378-5177

A woman who did not identify herself, other than saying she was from Denver County (when the phone number was from Longmont) informed me that I had a civil case filed against me and that I would need to contact Avery Law Firm to get details. I contacted my personal legal representation instead who informed me to contact the Denver County Clerk for details as a law firm is charged any time they search the public database for case information. The Denver County Clerk knows nothing about the case number that I was given. The number I was told to call by the woman on the phone was 866-552-2804. I’m very glad that information about this scam was available for me and am writing a report for anyone else who gets this call.

Terrifying Scam

Received a call today, and they also called my father (so embarrassing!). They claim I owe $1000+ to Wachovia Bank (I have never had a Wachovia account). They said my legal fees would be up to $7000 if I didn't act now. They threatened to put a lien on a car I paid off 13 years ago (and sold) which is what set me off that this was definitely a scam.
They had my full SSN and said it out loud, plus my current address.

I was terrified, wondering if I ever banked at a bank that was bought by Wachovia and forgot about a debt possibly.
I pulled all of my credit reports to confirm I have no deliquencies-
And I contacted a local debt lawyer, and they informed me that this was an awful scam and to block their number and warn my family.

There has to be more that can be done about this!

They told me to call
1-866-552-2804
He said his name was Jared Cruz.

The voicemail was a pre-recorded woman and the same for my voicemail and my Dad's.

They pronounced the county that the legal charges were from incorrectly, also tipped me off.

Be careful guys and spread the word. Update if you find out how to do more to stop these people, I will as well.

Avery Law Office

My father called me a week ago and said that someone called him asking for contact info for me because there was a civil suit being filed against me in my county. I brushed it off as a scam because I have had no contact about any such thing. Today, a lady claiming to be a courier service for served paperwork called from 305-506-0446 (a Miami number) saying that they tried to serve papers at my address and missed me so they wanted to now when I would be home so they could set an appointment for delivery. I asked what the paperwork was in regards to and she gave me the number for Avery Law Office 866-552-2675 and a file number and said to check with them because you don’t normally get served papers for something you are not aware of. I call and a guy answers the phone Avery Law office. I give him the file number and he transfers me to another guy that tells me that I owe $1800 on CC from 2016 for some company I had never heard of. He says that they sent letters to my address and I never responded. He quoted several things out of my credit file like my medical bill dispute and the card companies that I have accounts in good standing with. He also quoted my DOB and full social which is very scary to me! He said that he might be able to keep them from filing In court and docking my wages if his director would allow me to settle still. He put me on hold and came back and said that he could if I would pay the $1800. He said he checked and nothing had been filed against me yet but after they served me the papers, he couldn’t stop it so I have to pay within the next 24 hours. I may be crazy but I thought paperwork had to be filed for you to be served? He says that his assistant is emailing me a certified letter that I will have to sign for. I haven’t seen the email yet. This is the email that was sent to me. This is a very believable scam! It is crazy!

Avery Legal office with no last names

My mom and dad texted me that they received called from a lady claiming that there was a complaint against me in my county and they gave them a file number and that I needed to contact them. They even said they didn’t know if it was a scam or not but they were worried about me because we didn’t know if it was something criminal or debt or what. So I let them know I was ok. At first I didn’t pay no mind to about the calls or whatever becauseI didn’t have anything going on. Then my mom sent me the voicemail to hear and the fact they said that if wouldn’t be home to file and sign the papers they were serving me that it would proceed with or without me. So I called and when they answered all the guy said was “legal department “ and I gave him my case number and asked if it was criminal or debt and he didn’t say at first until I confirmed who I was. Said that I had a complaint from a auto dealership from 2007 in which his date was wrong. I had paid it off back in 2013 but he said that another collection agency could have bought it off at the same time the other one did and it didn’t get reported and that the contract I signed had an polling agreement which can extend the time of limited stature. He had a lot of my personal info including my FULL social security number which is very scary cause especially with this being scammers I don’t know how else they can use my info. I called the auto dealership and the prior attorney that took my payment and they couldn’t see anything that pertained to this debt call. The guy got confused a couple of times when I was asking questions and they gave me two different time frames of how long they have been trying to contact me and how long ago they received this debt. They wouldn’t tell me the collection agency that was supposedly purchased it. I was almost ready to do a settlement and I just decided to google them and found this page. I was very relieved and astonished of how elaborate they were and all the information they have on me and that they would call my parents. They also said they sent me letters and made it seem like they’ve came to my door a couple of times and I never received anything or anyone coming to my door. They never introduced themselves of what attorney they represented or gave me his last name. Is there any other place we can report them? BBB and anywhere else please let me know because these people have my social security number. The number they had me call was 1-866-936-0091 and claimed they were in California.

Same types of Calls - Civil Suit

I received a call today on my cell phone claiming that I had a civil suit pending and they were going to file with my county. I have no idea what this is about, glad I checked here to find that they are scammers. I received a similar call over a month ago claiming that I owed on a credit card from 2002, which was paid in full in that year. Also claimed to have sent letters to my house and nothing ever showed up. They sent something to my email but that is not legal means of notification. They are scammers, I refuse to call back and have blocked the number. They did have alot of information so beware!

Avery Law Office scam

Yesterday I received a voicemail from an unknown number about a complaint that had been filed against me and a judgment that was going to be ruled against me if I did not respond. I was skeptical so I paid no attention to it but then my mom called me and said she had received the same voicemail. So I called the number that was left in the voicemail and Avery law service answered. I gave them the “case number” that was also left on the voicemail and he began to inform me that I was being sued for $8000 plus attorney and court fees that would amount to over $10,000 from a Discover Card in 2015. I still have this card open and at a $0 balance. He told me that they have sent me numerous attempts at my home address to settle this debt through payment options etc. but I have never received anything. He then informed me that I would be served papers that day and that I could still make a payment option to him that day as long as it was before I was served papers. I told him that I believed these were fraudulent charges. He informed me then to receive the paperwork and continue to file a dispute from there. I asked him how I would have never seen this on my credit report and he informed me that per federal law after a period of time although the debt is not resolved it is removed from your credit report. This is true but it takes a period of seven years to do this. I spoke to at least four different people who seemed very informed of the law and they had a lot of my personal information. Be careful, this was the most elaborate scam I have ever dealt with.

Avery Law office scam

I received a voicemail about a judgement being made against me in a complaint filed against me that I have never heard of before. I called the number left on the voicemail and Avery Legal Office answered, I gave them the “case number” that was also left on the voicemail. He informed me that I was being served papers that day(at an address that is not associated with the Discover card he was saying I owed on) and being sued for $8,000 plus attorney and court costs and fees that would probably amount to over $10,000 for a discover card in 2015. I still have this card active and at a 0 balance. He said they have sent me numerous attempts at my home address to contact me and resolve the matter through payments ect….. which I have never received. He also informed me that he could still take a payment and resolve the matter as long as it was that day before I got served the court papers. I asked him why this has never showed up on any of my credit reports since 2015 and he replied that per federal law debts are removed off of your credit report although the debt is not resolved. That is true but it takes 7 years for this process to happen. I informed him that I believe these are fraudulent charges and asked him what to do from there. He said to receive the served paperwork and file a dispute. I spoke to at least 4 different people, they knew way more personal information than I am comfortable with and spoke as if they are very knowledgeable about the law. Be careful, this is the best scam I have come across.

FALSE DEBT COLLECTION SCAM

I had been receving confusing letters that LOOKED like a scam, naming multiple banks at the top with no sender name at all. That was my first "This is a scam" red flag. I ignored them and didn't call.

They got my husband's cell number and called him, left a vm and he called them back but wouldn't give him any information. He passed it on to me. I called them and their number went to busy signal for 5 minutes (probably on the line with some other victim). Called back again and a "receptionist" answered, "Avery Law Firm" and asked for my case #, which I gave. She then put me on hold and "transferred" me to some guy.

This guy started talking and I asked for his name. He said it was Daniel Sanchez. He goes into his schpiel that "they" have a civil complaint against me in my county and are going to sue me. I kept asking who is "they?" And he got mad. He said "Can you let me talk?" I only wanted to know who is suing me, why get angry?

He finally tells me after trying to instill fear first that I have an old debt with US Bank in the amount if over $1,000 and some cents (he gave an exact amount). And that they are going to sue me. So I said, "US Bank is going to sue me?" And he said, "Well your account was written off, and they sold their debts to investors and now those investors are suing a civil complaint for the debt. If you don't pay this, the lawsuit would include legal fees and you would be looking at $7,500."

I was like, OK. So sue me. He said, "So you want us to serve you?" Yep. Serve me. Thanks! And hung up.

I promptly called US Bank to verify and they don't do anything of the sort and my accounts are in good standing. She told me to look up Avery Law which I did and found ScamPulse (thank you ScamPulse!), which confirmed this is a scam.

The number they had me call:
866-609-3205
He did not give me an address but said they have offices all over the US and I've called the California office.
They also used my last name, knew my home address, DOB, last 4 of SSN, and got my husband's NEW cell phone number which means they are good at scouring the internet.
I also think they call family/spouse first as the first scare tactic.

Stay vigilant. Praying for these people who take this job/choose to scam. ??

Civil lawsuit

Avery Law Office called my phone number, my spam blocker caught it and I didn't answer so they called my brother, my husband and my daughter. I don't know how they got those numbers, pretty scary and told them all that I needed to contact them, I was being sued. When I called the number they asked for a bunch of personnel info to verify, which I refused to give They knew my address and county and a bunch of family. Where are they getting this info. They said they had tried to serve me three times and didn't have time to do it again so it was going to go to court. The address they gave me was7080 Hollywood Blvd Los Angeles which comes up in a search advertising virtual office space. Really want to know how they are getting that much personal info.

Credit card debt

I received two separate phone calls months apart. They also called my sister and Mom. I spoke with Sarah and she said i have a visa credit card debt from 2016 in the amount of 2551.26 Lol even had the cents. She told me that i got the card through Cross county bank who had merged with Applied bank. I told her i had never taken a credit card out with either bank and that i would investigate, to make sure someone wasn't using my identity, even though this supposed card was not on my credit file. I than called Applied bank and they informed me that i don't have an account on file with them and that they don't have any affiliation with cross country bank. Furthermore they put me in touch with their fraud department and was told nothing is on file. And the funniest thing, they want to serve me documents, and never asked me for my address, lol. Don't stress over it.

Received a phone call from"Avery Law" today

They contacted my husband and brother in law trying to get ahold of me. I called them and the lady said they were assigned
a debt in my name from "first premier." She stated I owed a debt of $5000+ from Bank of America and then it would be served court papers for this debt. When I asked what would happen if I didn't pay it, she said that they could put a lien on my bank account or other assets. I decided to pay it and was able to have all within quite a bit and get the amount down to 1180 which was the first red flag. They sent me a payment receipt which was pretty much just a receipt that I signed on doc you sign. They Also sent me the contract stating I was paid in full. However, it was a very generic form and also didn't have much information on it other than the original creditor and the amount that I paid.

The lady on the phone would not give me a website connected with their law firm and stated that they didnt advertise to the public. I also googled the phone number that she called me from: (909) 522-3547 as well as +1 (323) 603-3967.

I called the card company i paid this scammer with and reported it and put a stop on the payment. What a mess and waste of time.

Fraud

Called for 4 months trying to cooled a debt from HSBC. I have never had a credit card yet they say I did. I called HSBC to confirm I have no debt with them. They told me it was a scam. This so called Avery Law Form couldn't give me the EIN number or address to the company. Said they have been trying to serve papers on me in our county. Called out county and nothing pending for me. I reported to BBB as well. I then called them back and said I was going to record the conversation where they told me they don't consent to recording. I have never got any mail even though it is 4 months later. Don't give these people a dime.

I Received 2 voice message from them

First I looked u my name in the county's Civil Court cases file in my county under my name there where none. Then I ask my sister about it and she told me that it's A SCAM. Then looked up the number and It came up to a home in Huffman, Texas. I'm disabled and don't leave the house very much so they are not going to get anything from me. God bless these people that feel taking from others is b easier then taking the energy they spend defrauding people to a legal job they would make more and have a clean soul instead they rather steal hardworking g people's money and add stress to their lives that no one needs now.

Received call saying that I owed CITIBANK from 2005 and that it was on my credit. ALso, they had my drivers licenses number knew my maiden and married name and home address! Said papers would be served to me and a civil suit filed. They called from 267-742-3116 and 1866-840-0383

They called my husband first, then me, and then my sister from an Unknown number. They used my maiden name with my sister but my married name with my husband and me. The person calling left a voicemail saying that there was a delivery of legal documents that were sent to me but were sent back for whatever reason. I called the number provided back (866)840-0383 and they told me they were Avery and Associates. They said I had a debt from 2008 and I was being sued by Capitol One for “Malicious intent to defraud a financial institution.” They would not send me paperwork in regards to the allegations and they would not provide an address or PO Box for me to check their validity. When I told them I doubted that they were an actual company they told me I would be served legal papers that would summon me to court. (Which would mean they would have to send me paperwork though they refused to do it earlier in the conversation.) I’m assuming this is a scam because they refused to provide any proof of their legitimacy.

Just got a call at my house for my husband saying they were from Avery law firm. They were trying to serve my husband papers between such and such hours and asked if my husband would be home. I said no they said it was for a civil complaint and gave us a case number and said that he needed to call the law firm back at an 866 number and give the case number. They said it was out of the county we were from.I had a bad feeling about it right away and looked it up and seen other people were getting the same calls.

I've received two separate calls from Avery Legal office, a few months apart. The first time a lady told me I was going to be served papers and that I better call the legal firm at an 866 number. I did so. They told me I owed a Home Depot balance of $3,000.00 and that I would be served and there was a civil lawsuit against me. I told them I didn't owe this and that I'd never had a Home Depot credit card. We argued about it for a bit and then he hung up on my. The 2nd time they called me they contacted my ex-husband AND my father trying to "find me". They told both people that I had a civil lawsuit against me. Can you say defamation of character. This is so frustrating!

Same as previously mentioned. My spouse apparently has debt going that will be brought to court if I don't pay them immediately. They had is name, date of birth, and last 4 of his social. Ran a credit report and has absolutely no debt, no open accounts, nothing in his name (he's retired and everything is in my name). When they called the 4th time, after credit checks were run, they got angry and rude when I explained that he owes nothing and they were a fraud. He said the courts would be coming after him. Frustrating fraud!

On April 28, 2021 my spouse received a phone call from a legal service by the name of Avery Legal Services asking my spouse to pay for a First Premier Credit Card debt of $1900.00. The person who goes by the fake name of Joseph at phone number 866-577-0487 ext 161 ask my husband was I still in the military and gave him our current address and said the police had been by my house several times to try and deliver the summons of course not true someone is always home. They had my personal information such as name, address, where I work which is pretty scary. When my spouse gave me the information I immediately called the company and a lady answered I didn't get her name and she then transferred me to the man who goes by the name Joseph and once I started asking a bunch of questions he became rude and kept saying you will get the summons. I then told him we would be waiting and that I would make sure to report the scam to the police, ScamPulse.com and the fraud department for the military. Please help these people are scammers and they have a lot of valuable information on people not sure how they are getting it.
