I was at the doctor w my mom and I was already in a nervous state of mind. I wouldn’t normally fall with such an obvious scam. I received a call from an private number stating to be someone who is trying to “serve me to appear” I was confused and asked him “appear for what?” the person claimed to not be able to disclaim what it was for. But to call 855.7744959 and give my case number. I did and Mike Epstein was who I spoke to. I gave him the case number and he asked for my last 4 digits of my social and I did. He “confirmed “ my identity and said “so that means I can discuss the case w you” he said that I was being sued for breach of contract from a debt from 2007, that was bought by a company that he is representing and he is a mediator. He said the company was preparing to take legal action against me for failure to comply.( Of course since I was already on edge due to my mother’s health, what he saying scared me even more. Normally I would have caught on, but my mind wasn’t all there.) I told him I wasn’t aware of any debt collection and he responded “you really don’t know” in a shocked voice. He said he would talk to
his “client” to see if he can convince them
to give me another chance. I asked him for proof of the original debt since I want to know what I was paying for, and he went on to say that the only way he can give me that information is if they sue me and that that will come out and discovery and at point he wouldn’t be able to help me(again I should’ve knew better by that point). He asked me to remain on hold while he spoke to his client and that for me staying on hold that would proved that I’m actually serious. which I did and then after waiting for about 10 minutes he came back and said that they countered my offer with two offers and I told him I couldn’t do either option. We should just go to court and he insisted maybe you should just counter because you really don’t want to go to court. I told him at this point I can’t pay what they want me to pay so we’re going to have to go to court and then he kept on saying do you know what will happen if you go to court and a judgment be placed on your account he said it in a very stern voice. Once again he convinced me to counter and this time he claimed that the client actually accept my offer, and that they wanted something in writing and asked for my email so they can send over the paperwork to sign plus put my card information. So I gave them the information they sent me the paperwork via xodo sign. I signed and added my card information. but I noticed two days had passed by and the charge wasn’t on my card. I know Amex check for fraudulent charges. I looked up the company name that was on the document I signed & it said global asset recovery associates on the paperwork. I googled the address and found this website and saw Mike Epsteins name everywhere and he used the same exact tactics on me like every one else. I immediately called AMEX told them what happened. Amex marked the charge as fraudulent and close out my account and are issuing me new cards. My only concern is now they have the last four of my social, so I’m guessing I’m gonna have to pay for credit monitoring to avoid them trying to mess up my credit. Like I said it normally I wouldn’t have fell for something so obvious but I was going through a lot with my mom’s house and other situations in the my life that clouded in my judgment. Luckily, I was able to sit back and reflect and stop it before it got worse.

Mike Epstein gave that is his direct number is 8889854358 the voicemail says he is with the Thompson & Associates legal group.
The company that the payment was processed through is Ssas llc.

I RECEIVED A CALL FROM AN ALLEGED LEBGAL OFFICE THREATENING ME WITH A LAWSUIT AND A JUDICIAL SUBPOENA. THEY EVEN GAVE ME A REFERENCE NUMBER AND A PHONE NUMBER 1-833-734-2760, AND EVEN IF I CALLED THEY NEVER ANSWERED ME, SO I CALL THE NUMBER WHERE THEY CALLED ME FIRST 1-833-405-9014. WHEN I ASKED THEM WHAT THE LAWSUIT WAS ABOUT, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS FOR A CREDIT CARD DEBT FROM 2004 THAT OWED AROUND 7,500.00 DOLLARS. I ASKED WHAT THE CARD AND THE BANK WAS, THEY ONLY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A VISA THAT ENDED IN 3582 BUT THEY DID NOT WANT TO TELL ME THE BANK. THE MORE I ASKED, THE MORE ANNOYED THEY WERE UNTIL I WAS HOOKED. THEY HAVE MY NAME, PHONE NUMBRE, SS# AND DOB. I'M WORRIED HOW THEY HAVE MY INFO.

My father just received a call on 03/18/2022. The man that called him knew his name and address and asked my father to confirm his information. When my father asked how he knew this he told him he was being sued. The man very aggressively gave my father a case number and this phone number to call back 833-734-2760. When my father asked for his information he said to call on Monday to that number and they would give him more information. Please be ware this is a scam

Received a call from 909-500-8731. A man said I was being contacted because they could not reach my mom. He gave me the number 833-709-2665 to call with a case number. I had my mom call and she spoke to Frank Garcia at x103. He said he was trying to collect a credit card debt from 2005 for $2,795.34 but if she was will to settle this dispute today, they would accept $1,101.33. If she refused, she would be served papers and have to go to court. They also offered to let her counter offer which she did with $550. It was immediately accepted and paperwork sent via docusign to provide CC info for payment.

They had her current address

They almost had her but she gave me all the info to research and make sure it wasn't a scam and I found this site and knew right away. Luckily she did not pay them anything.

She gave an old, old address from 12 years ago and said she was trying to serve me papers. I told her I didn't trust her to tell her what the correct address was, so she gave me the number to Hudson Legal "833-709-5717" and gave me a case number. I called this number, and Alan Thorne answered. I provided him with my case number, and he immediately rattled off my SSN without asking me for any of my info. This should have triggered all the red flags, but I stayed on with him. He said I owed a debt of $2716 + court costs if it went to court, or I could just pay the $1000 HSBC "originally offered me," but he would have to get approval from his boss Trevor Hudson. After keeping me on the phone for about an hour, he finally sent me some fishy looking paperwork through docusign... First of all, the address is: 501 W. Broadway Suite 800 San Diego, CA 92101... This address is taken by an individual lawer LLC. Second of all "[email protected]..." ProtonMail is a secure mail service so you can't be tracked... nice try, but no legitimate law firm is going to use a ProtonMail email address... Thirdly, the document ONLY asked for Credit Card information... Please, please, please do not fall for this scam... These people are not legitimate.

I was contacted by "LCS Legal Services" regarding an old debt from 2008 in my name with Orchard Bank. They said they attempted to serve me at an address I havent resided at in 7-8 years and that they are attempting to file a judgement with NY for $3000 (including legal costs). I was told the attorneys name was Trevor Hudson and to expect a DocuSign agreement. I called Orchard Bank. They stated they DO NOT contract out collections and do not have any account in my name open, closed, or in collections. The docusign form had a logo for Global Asset Recovery with address of 501 W Broadway Suite 800 San Diego CA. Global Asset Recovery was out of business in 2002. That address is for a legal firm but they dont handle debt collection. LCS is a name of a debt collector in New Zealand. Trevor Hudson is not registered with the CA state bar in any way. And the phone number originally called from was 518 -900-2381 which is a NY number. The number left on my voicemail was 8338590726 which has no registration info and the number on the form is 844-406-4637. That number is only associated with this site

I have filed complaints with US Att General, FCC, NY Attorney General, Cal Attorney Gen, CA state bar and CA consumer protection

They mention there is a legal action against you, and talk to you in a way that makes you want to like pay it and handle it right away. The document they send to sign looks legit, but the phone numbers they call from you can't get anyone - the line is busy or it will just keep ringing. There's like a whole bunch of different phone numbers when you try to search the name, plus they don't have an official website. I was so stupid to not ask a bunch of questions in the beginning, but they sounded legit and look legit - plus they gave me my information and I just confirmed it, like I didn't give them any personal information they had all of it, which made me think this was real, and they've taken money from me for over a year now out of my account.

I was contacted by a Jack Palimeno. He said I was being sued by best buy for a debt from 2012. He had my address and the last 4 of my ss#. He also contacted my parents! He told me if I sent $1000 it would be settled. So I asked him for their direct address, office email, the account # he had (its a fake account #), and for his Bar #. He said the hearing was in a completely different county then the debt was. Mind you its been paid off and is not on my credit report. He also informed me he wasn't a lawyer and couldn't give out the Bar # for the lawyer there which I was told is Trevor Hudson. He asked why I wanted this information. I told him because I had a feeling it was a scam. He got mad and told me I apparently didn't care about my credit and to call back when I wanted to resolve it. Then hung up. Extremely rude and it's definitely a scam. The fact he had that much information on me really bothers me. Stay safe and ask 1000 questions.

First received a call from someone tel# 213-262-6440 and said that he was trying to deliver or serve some confidencial documents to my current address and had correct address. He said he was not to discuss matter with me and he was to give the company telephone number. Provided me with tel. # 833-405-9014 and a case number.
Called right away and spoke to Frank Garcia and started telling me that this was being recorded for legal services. Thereafter, he stated that they were taking me to court for a debt on behalf of Chase Bank for the amount of almost $5000 but their company was willing to settle for $1800 and that was if paid within an hour or 2 if not case was to be taken to court and then I would be responsible for paying the whole amount plus cost of fees imposed by the court. So I told him I did not know who they were and that I needed the confidential documents he was talking about. He asked me for an email address and provided to him. An hour and a half later he sent me a DocuSign document coming from "Trevor Hudson"
This account for which they were trying to settle it was from 2008. Which I did not even had a credit card with Chase. This kind of situations is very bad because they confirmed my correct social security number. I cannot believe they have access to this very private Information.

They did the same exact thing to me! I got the same docusign email. I am now paying for credit and identity monitoring because they had a lot of personal info and I reported them to the federal trade commission, bureau of consumer protection and the attorney general's office.

Talked to Michael Epstein from Hudson Group today, after he left a message, with a case number from me to call back about. He stated they would be serving me court papers today. First 2 times I called back, it just rang and rang. Third time, he answered. He went on and on how this was a Capital One account through Best Buy! If that wasn't enough to set off warning signals, he proceeded to tell me ot was from 2004. I've never had a card from Best Buy and I have nothing in collections on my credit report. He said he would check with Global United and see if they would settle for 80% of what I was owed. He couldn't promise me anything, but he would try. He put me on hold for about 10 minutes. When he came back, he said it was my lucky day, because he sincerely believed that I had no idea what this was about, so he was able to convince them to take the deal. He wanted my payment info, but because I was at work and wanted to check on what the heck was really happening, I told him I didn't have my info. I'm so glad I didn't believe it! I hope others look into these claims before they agree to pay!

I was in contact with a Michael Epstein with the same m.o as the other reports here.. once I realized this may be a scam I stopped my payment setup and reached but to avail, the numbers were unreachable.. today he called (the payment set for today didnt go thru) the moment I raised my concerns he got an attitude and said how the global United assets company cant be reached, you cant call them they call you ... and how if I didnt set up new payment then it will go to court and how this company runs lives, and has people homeless on the streets.. mind you this debt was paid off about 9 years ago now by me. It is no longer on my credit report. the original creditor knows nothing about this dept collection/"lawsuit" .. I said well, I guess I would need to go to court to know that this is a legitimate issue and not a scam. This dude was so rude and said I wasnt intelligent because I was questioning the realness of this situation. I have never been spoken to like that by any real professional, ever! ..scam! I asked to speak to his supervisor, he said he didnt have one! ... everyone answers to someone! that's how I knew it wasn't legitimate! .. be very careful! many people are trying to take advantage of the people who may have lost work figuring that their dept must be high due to layoffs or reduced working hours due to the pandemic.. smh ... real criminals!

A Michael Epstein called me at 3pm stating that i was being sued and served, and was "shocked" that i did not know about it. He seemed very legitimate, making me think that i actually may owe Wells Fargo an amount of 3k for an account that was closed in 2010. He advised me that if i decided to lawyer up, that it would get really expensive, as i would be responsible for the court fees, legal fees, as well as my balance. I then asked for an invoice. While i waited for the invoice, i called the local courthouse to see if i had any judgements against me, as well as Wells Fargo. After doing some research, this company is a scam. They call you, bring up old debt, pressure you and hope to get paid.

My employer received a call from a Ryan Howard (888-398-7947)stating that they had civil court papers to be delivered to me. I called back and spoke with a Trevor Hudson, they told me that I owed $1604 for an old Orchard credit card from 2009. I called Orchard bank services and I have no accounts that are still open or in collections. He also told me that they do not contract out with this company they have their own collections agency. Spread the word...

I received a call from 872 310 6520 Hudson Group, name of person escapes me, asking for my address to deliver me court papers since I was being sued! I asked him who was suing me and he said I had to call Global United Assets Svs at 1-833-341-6627 with the supposed case number and I spoke with Edgar Ramos?!? Right! Who said a credit card company Ive never dealt with was sueing me for not paying my bill from 2006! These guys are completely clueless! Anyway, Im flooding the internet with their scam!
Oh! And he told me I sounded like a Karen when I wouldnt buy his BS!
And both numbers go to the same place!

Mr. Frank Garcia contacted my brother saying my mother was being sued for over $3000 which would include court and attorney fees. They said we could do monthly payments for $133.38 for a max of 12 months. They told me a company name and year that was suing my mom. To get the man off the phone I gave a bad credit card number. I contacted Continental Finance (the company name Frank Garcia gave me). They said they had no record of my mother ever having an account with them. They told me to call them back and tell them I was going to contact the attorney general. I called Frank back he got an attitude with me saying. He never told me Continental Finance. He told me to contact First Bank of Delaware. When I asked for the contact information. He accused me of talking over him. I kept saying I wanted to verify my mother truly owed this money. He kept saying he did not have contact information to give me. That's when I accused him of scamming us. He got upset and told me to contact First Bank of Delaware.
