Now operating as "Parker & Shultz"

I had a similar experience where I received a restricted call claiming that they tried to deliver a certified letter, call this number, etc. I did call and they claimed I owed Chase Manhattan Bank $3700 and if I didn't pay they would sue me. I previously had an account with Chase that was closed and settled, but I thought perhaps something happened and it wasn't. I almost paid them. The payment was to Principal One Group.that happens to have one of the same bumbers listed for Scherwin & Assoc. (888-210-5587). They sent identical documents to many shown on this thread. I contacted Chase and no such debt or account exists. I requested debt validation and was ignored. I filed a complaint with the cfpb and will continue to file/call them out everywhere possible.

Got a.call

Glad I searched this. But I received something too from over 12 years ago. I stated statute of limitations and wanted paperwork so I can verify that this is mine. The lady on the phone got quite upset saying I won’t let her speak but yet all she wanted was me to give her a credit card and a settlement number. I kept saying. Email me the paperwork you have and I can verify this debt and I’ll call you back. She said she needed a payment setup now. I kept asking for paperwork and then she got mad said. I’ll just put down “refusal to pay”. And hung up on me. Haha. Then I found this.

On a payment plan with Sherwin and Associates they took a double payment in December I talked to the lady and she said she was supposed to give me my payment back and hasn't

Just an FYI this is a scam. This company states they are a law firm but they are not. Their address is a UPS store in California. Unfortunately you paid them so good luck getting that money back. If I were you I'd contact a lawyer and open up a fraud claim with the BBB.

I received a call and it said to call this 888 number with this account # and at the end of the message it said you have been notified. So I called the number and sara answers the phone and said I owe overdraft fees from compass bank back in 2008 and they will take 1500 as settlement and that I could make monthly payments. She sent me 2 letters through email that she wanted me to sign (but I did not). So when I told her that she couldnt garnish my wages that statue of limitations is 6 years and she preceded to tell me that I signed a tolling agreement and that there is no statue of limitations that they can garnish my wages and put a tax lien on my home. Please dont fall for this. I almost did.

I got the same call, and told the same thing about the "tolling agreement". Mine was for a JC Penny card back in 2006 (Statute of lmitations in WI is 6 years) and the amt being sought was over 10K, when the original original debt according to "Mr. Ramirez" was less than $1,000. They also sent me a document through docusign which I did not sign either. I called a debt lawyer and explained my situation and he said even with the "tolling agreement" that the Statute of lmitations had passed and this was most likely a scam. I have been watching my states website to see if the lawsuit they threatened to file with Dane County courts back in October 2021 showed up and as of today (December 29 2021) has not been filed. Also the email for Sherwin & assoc is a GMAIL (red ?#1) and their address is a UPS Store in CA (Red ? #2). I emailed Scherwin & Associates back and told them that if they continued to contact me via email/phone that my attorney would be filing a fraud/abuse & harassment suit against them & that I'd filed a complaint against them with the FTC/FCC & BBB. I haven't heard from them since! Total scam!

On 10/8/21 I received a phone call from a Restricted number to call 888-618-2176 about a civil suit being filed against me. When I called, Sarah informed me that I had an outstanding debt from Bank of America Credit Card for $18,011.57 from 11/2004 - 4/30/2009. If I didn't rectify it by 6:00 on 12/10 a Civil Suit was going to be filed and I was going to then be obligated to owe $35,059.19. The increase was due to past interest and attorney fees. I have never has BOA CC AND I filed bankruptcy in 2011 and this was never on my credit report. This is a scam.

received a phone call today from Emma Cruz who is part of SMP associates. she left me a call back phone number 888-680-7416 with a file number and told me that if I did not call back by close the business today the civil case against me would be processed in the court system. the number that came up on my phone was 267-793-7010. when you call that number back it automatically hangs up on you. when you call the 888 number you get Sherwin and associates and you give them your file number and it takes them 10 minutes to find your file definitely a scam. I googled them and they are not any type of company or law firm.

They sent me a voice mail because I don't answer private calls today stating I have a civil case they will be moving forward with if I don't call them back by 4pm today..welp guess what bring it on ...SCAMMERS..

Wow I have to say they really dig deep to try to scam most of the people out of their money. This Company have a few names - SP Associates - Scherwin Perritti - scherwinperritti.com.. Phone numbers are 866-618-0749 , 888-712-1721, Attached below is the owner of the company named Owners are Sherman Humphrey and the manager is Serena Lopez and the CEO is David Brown 16000 Yucca Street Hesperia CA 92345 ... The address of 6185 Magnolia Ave Suite 258 is a UPS Store mailbox and the other one is a Virtual office .. No real office. So these guys are collectors and not lawyers...These guys are good scammers and should be reported

I got a text today and my girl friends 2 daughters got the same text telling me I needed to call before something goes to court. I called and gave the guy the file number took him a few min to pull up any Info and he said I owed over $2500 in Wells Fargo fees from 2002 but would settle for $650. He said I signed some tolling contract I’m not sure what it is. But then saw your post with the same phone number and I’m not stressing quite as bad now. Thanks for your post.

These people called me around or about two weeks ago threatening to placed my car and home on lien. Also, threatened to garnish my wages, and also threatened to take my spouse's social security disability check. If I do not pay them$10,000.00 or 2,000.00 settle on a credit card issue by HSBN. I informed these people that this is not my account n they asked is my name Catherine Butler, I said not me because since I got married I go by Mitchell they said this debt occurred in 1994-2000. I said you got the wrong person. Next, last week I received a text threatening on 11/04/21 I have until 4:00 PM to respond to them or else they will go to Orangeburg SC to file a civil lawsuit against me for$10,00. Reference number is 156336 and phone number is 1 (888) 206-0246. I text them back and stated my attorney will call you on Monday. What can I do to stop these people from harassing me?

These people are a scam. They are attempting to be debt collectors, under the guise of a law firm. They are not a legitimate collector or law firm. They manage to somehow collect data on old collections, many no longer in that status and try to con people into giving them money. I work for an attorney and have not had anything debt collections for 20+ years. We were not able to verify their legal credentials in any state. The number that called me was (414)203-9681 and a call back number of (888)590-8011. They claimed I had an outstanding civil matter in Waukesha county. Which has never been the case. Civil suits involve you being served or sent legal documentation via mail, not a bogus phone call. Do not fall for these. Even if you do owe someone money, this is not how a legitimate collection agency goes about trying get you to repay. Report them!

They called from a restricted number 1st and stated they had been trying to contact me regarding an old credit card account that was never on my credit report at all. Stayed they were lawyers and was taking me to court if I did not pay 2011.00 immediately. They sent me documents to sign from a Gmail account, not a business account, and since it was never on my credit reports at all I'm at a loss as to where the card even came from on 2004 to 2009, other than an ex husband who may have opened 1 up on my name I never knew about. Screenshots of all they sent me, and they kept calling yesterday. I truly feel it's a scam, they even said they had to "get a judgement" first before they could say it was "my debt"...

I received a call from an Angelica Ross asking to call (877) 539-0028 regarding a civil complaint that is attempting to be filed against me. I called back and spoke to an Eduardo Garcia who proceeded to "help" me by setting my debt for only $600. The total debt was for $4300. He proceeded to say that if this wasn't handled and paid by 3pm today that they could garnish my wages and levy my bank account. This was for an old Citi credit card that I got back In 2006. my mother works for a law firm in collections and said that I should call back and be extremely nice and to ask for all information ie. Credit card number , dates it was opened , date it was closed , and any amount. They were able to give me the whole card number which I used to to verify with Citi bank customer service. since the card was sold off they directed me to Calvary Recovery which stated that they still owned the account and it was never sold off.
I review the "Settlement" that they emailed me and it came from an @gmail account. which is the reason I started to question everything. Wouldn't a law firm have a real email account. I then googled the address and it was a UPS click and ship location. and the website is generic and gives no info. clearly fake. see attached for "settlement" template. Reporting to FTC. Beware of these scams.

They email your "settlement" via hellosign it comes from a [email protected] address.

Received a text about a pending court case for my brother and mother.
I called the number in the text and they answered "Sherwin and Associates" and said their office was in Riverside. Since I was not a "defendant" they couldn't provide me information. I tried to ask about my mother but said it was only for my brother. I texted back the number that text me and told them "Nice Try" to their scam and immediately they called me back from a private #. I pretended to be my mom so they could give me info and only told me it was in regards to an old loan they had taken out over 10 years ago. They did have some of their private info so it seems they buy old debt and go to these crazy scenarios of pretending to be a law firm to scare people into paying or scamming them. My brother said their loan was paid a long time ago. Not sure why they would wait over 10 years to collect a debt. Definitely very fishy but I can see how some people would fall for it and pay them.

Tried calling me several times and I blocked it. However, embarrassingly, they left a message on my family members voicemail that she sent me. I called and the gentleman on the other line started screaming at me telling me when I questioned the charges. Said that I was calling him a liar and that he was NOT one of my kids. Huh? He hung up and sent me an email with a "settlement" due in 2 days. I was super upset that he knew everything. My address, ss#, dob all of it! I am pretty distraught.

Someone by the name of John Donahue called and left a message at my job stating that I had a case against me and that I should call 877-639-0116. I called back and was told by Derrick that I owed HSBC over $5000 from 2008. Why is it not on my credit report? They told me that they could accept $700 as a settlement and sent me a DocuSign form which was more proof that the call was a scam. The DocuSign had typos which a real business would not have. It was also set so that I had to enter my own fields of information instead of it being preset. No real company does this. BE CAREFUL because they seem to be getting ahold of social security numbers and addresses.

I recently had Scherwin and Associates contact me, my mother and father regarding a supposed Bank of America Credit Card debt from 2005. I've never had a CC through BOA. When I asked more questions about the debt, Marc Ramirez could not give me any specific information other than listing an old mailing address of mine and offering to send me an e-mail (via Docusign) verifiying the debt and giving me a speech about the credit card's tolling agreement and how it voided any statute of limitations that might protect me. Mr. Ramirez stated that I owed over $5k but he would settle immediately for $1,500. I haven't paid anything yet and now that I'm aware its a scam, I will continue to ignore them. Does anyone have any suggestions for when they call back? Should I continue to ignore them? Has anyone received an actual Summons or Notice of Judgment from Scherwin & Associates? I would rather go to court and represent myself than be scammed out of $1,500! I will report them to the FTC and contact my bank over this scam. I just want to know how far has Scherwin taken their bogus claims with people?

Thanks in advance for any advice/information!

I got a similar call and text yesterday. They even called my fiance. Same thing most people here are listing. "Sent a letter 38 days ago" (but never did), You owe this much on an old HSBC card, which is now Capital one, and we're suing you for this + legal fees, settle now for a fraction... etc.

I told them I was working, and I'd call back when I was able to deal with it. In the meantime, they sent me a Docusign email with the letter they apparently sent me 38 days ago. Misspelling your "clients" name in an apparent legal notice - a big warning sign.

I called HSBC, as I don't remember the account they're talking about. They checked with my SS#, and I've never had an account.

I called Capital One, and aside from my current account, they have no record of a 15+ year old account, and certainly nothing in that timeframe.

So I turned my research into Scherwin and Associates. Website has been suspended, no Social Media presence, at least one lawsuit against them (Wilson v. Scherwin & Associates, LLC) and hundreds of complaints like the ones listed here. As I said, they all seem to follow the same script, with a little variation on numbers.

So I called them back. And I got a generic, default voice mail. No greeting with the firm name, nothing. - BIG warning sign. They did eventually call me back.

During the timeframe this account was apparently taken out, I was living in another state, yet they could only provide addresses back 10 years, in the state I currently reside.

I asked when they apparently sent this letter to me, and they gave me a date. I have USPS informed delivery emails dating back over a year. Their response "Well, it's just my word I never received it, and the USPS probably has problems"

I told them about the statute of limitations on debt collections, and they told me there was a tolling agreement on this contract stating that there was no statute. We went back and forth on a number of things, and mid phone call, I get an email saying the Docusign letters have been withdrawn.

The TL:DR of this is simple: These guys are a scam. Yes, they may have information like your social, but data breaches happen every single day. In 2017 Equifax had a massive data breach, and your info is out there. It's easy for scammers to get. Even if they take me to court, I was able to find enough information on them, and this apparent debt in a few hours to make me confident in the outcome.

Thank you for this because I was told the EXACT same thing. I had an HSBC account and then they said something about a Capital One card that made no sense. I was told the same thing about a tolling agreement on an account that was opened in 2008. When I received the DocuSign there were several red flags. The document was not professional looking at all. It was clear that this was a thrown together document made to appear legitimate. They had my social security number which worried me but glad to have stopped and did the research before taking it any further. So again,thank you.

Received a text on June 8 from 323-643-5124 about a complaint in process of being processed and filed against me in my county. It says I need to contact the filing firm at 888-476-0482 and provide reference #102521. When I called the 888 number I spoke to someone saying that they are trying to collect in an HSBC account from 2007. That should’ve been a red flag to me but I’m trying to work on my credit score and I just didn’t think right away. They said I owed over $2000, can’t remember the exact amount, but that they could settle for $1222 and some odd cents. My hearing was scheduled to take place that Friday and so in order to abound attorney fees which would be over $6000, I could take care of it or go to court and risk losing. I ended up paying $600 with the balance to have been paid on July 20. Oddly enough, my payment card that I used,to make that payment, was compromised so I had my bank block my card and issue me another one which should arrive by today. So I called the 888 number last week to inform them of my situation and they moved the final payment date to today. In the meantime, I decided to look in on this Scherwin and Associates and find that it is a scam.
Today I received a voicemail call from someone named Ben Garcia regarding final payment but I have not called them back at this point.
Is there anything I should do about this call and is there something I can do about the monies I paid out already?
