Abner Dudley and Associates Reports & Reviews (20)

Does anyone have an email for these guys, Dudley and Assiciates. I need to get in contact with them.

They have been harassing my wife and would like them to stop.

Thank you in advance

Brian called my family matters telling me it was a legal matter that needed to be taken care of immediately! I was at work but called them and set up arrangements to make payments for a debt. I have been making payments but now I see that this could be a scam. Here is the receipt from my first payment because I requested a receipt! I will be requesting the remainder of my receipts or statements for this debt. So I want to know How I stop this if it is a scam!

My situation started with a voicemail that was left on my number and my mother in laws number. Stated that they were going to send someone out to serve me. This was a bit odd, but I am trying to be responsible these days. So I call the number. I speak with a woman who says her name is Kristin. Super nice, seems professional. They say this is a Chase debt from like 2004. I am sorta on edge about it, so I call Chase to see if any amount was written off back then in my name. Sure enough, it was. So now I am thinking this is a true debt. It may be. But this is absolutely not the company associated with it. She calls me back a couple days later as I did not get right back to them. Anyway, these people have ALL information. They know addresses, phone numbers, socials, employment, recent loan history, everything. She rattled all of it off to me, I did not give her any of that info. I ask for them to send me the documentation in the mail. And I am told they cannot do that right now, time has ran out, either make a payment or it goes to garnishment. Stupid, I know, but I panicked. So I decide to make a "good faith" payment so I do not get garnished. I pay them $50 and then set up auto pay for monthly payments. I am told all the documents will be mailed to me. So 2 weeks go by, no documents. This whole time I have had a bit of an uneasy feeling about it all, but when I got no documentation that sealed the deal. That this is not a legit place. I find these entries today in a search. I then decide to call Kristin back, and just anonymously ask for company name and address. Of course it's Kristin, she tells me Dudley Legal Services. Instant attitude about the address. She asks my name and I give her a random name. She then believes she knows who she has on the line and gives a last name to the first name I gave her (I have no idea who that person is). I ask again for the address or mailing address to her company. She tells me she is not going to give out her information unless I give more of mine. Really? A company is hesitant about giving out their address? Anyway.. she got a huge attitude, was yelling at me and ended up hanging up on me. I have cancelled all my cards and it's done now. But they did get me for $50. And whoever she thought she was talking to, she got that girl for $60 as she mentioned that in our phone call. Just BEWARE! This is a SCAM!

Answers the phone vague.. something like corporate offices.
Dudley Legal Services
SW United Financial **says they are servicers for/ or this company is their servicer.

I've had the same experience with these guys. Vague phone call about "civil legal" action scheduled to be filed against me, etc. When I called them back they told me it was a debt for a credit card I've never had and made some comments about garnishment and filing a judgment against my SSN. This is not how lawyers talk. They also never said they were attempting to collect a debt, which is not how debt collectors talk.

it looks like these guys are connected to the Dudley/Ceccarelli crime ring that was taken down by the US Attorney in Western NY in 2015-2019. Same scam, same name, same exact format. I filed a tip with the FBI and so should you. Go to tips.fbi.gov.

They should know one of their crime-rings is back and operating again. Maybe if enough people file a tip they will stop them again.

So I talked to someone named Sabrina he ext is 101 she states.. she said i owe a bill of $1300 and the company that I owe sent me paperwork back in September 2020. I never received such mail..

She said they could settle out of court for a 50% discount of $650 one time payment and they will stop the process server from serving me court papers.

I told them there are allot of scams lately and I need proof of the bill owed she said proof will be provided in court and that they are beyond the point of sending out paperwork..

So she sent me a Document using docusign in my email I didn't open it and I will not open it. She said get back with her in 3 days or they will proceed in the legal process to serve me and or garnish my wages and our levy my bank accounts..

I didn't pay anything nor agreed to anything this is a scam..

They me everything about me including all of my credit..

Hi do you have the email address, they sent you the DocuSign from.

Thanks

On Thursday 17, 2020, my ex father-law had my daughter call me to give me a message that a lady called him and stated that she needs to serve me with papers. I proceed to return the call to (866)736-5905 at EXT 101, where I spoke to a woman named Sabrina Sundeen. Sabrina Sundeen proceed to ask me to identify myself before telling me why she is looking for me to serve me some papers. I verified my identity, my name, and the last 4 of my social security (which I should not have done). She stated that she was calling me about an outstanding debt; she says I had a credit card from continental finance. However, I could not remember if I did or not. I listen to her tell me that this debt is mine and that I owe $2,309.85 and that she has been trying to reach me to serve me papers so that Abner Dudley and Associates can sue me for this outstanding debt. I replied to her can you send me the documents via e-mail as I would like to look at the paperwork and get back to her on Friday 18, 2020.

I called Sabrina back on Friday evening after I had a chance to look at it via e-mail. My first thought was, where is the rest of the paperwork? As I stated to Sabrina Sundeen, you only sent me one paper through the Dock sign where it was time-sensitive; after so many hours, it deletes the document. She said that is all she can send to me as back up documentation is used for court to show proof that I owe this money, and I could not have a copy of the allegation against me. She also stated that she would have to recommend going forward in their lawsuit against me. But Sabrina Sundeen made it a point to say I could settle out of court if I paid $1,500.00. I told her I would need to talk to my bank on Monday 21, 2020, in the morning and that I would call her back on Monday 21, 2020. After my call with Sabrina Sundeen, I spoke with my husband and told him the whole story, and he said this sound like a scam. However, all weekend I contemplated on the idea of being served court paper and having to go to court and defend myself on a credit card that I don't have any memory of even having. On Monday 21, 2020, instead of calling my bank to see if I could get a loan to settle for the $1,500.00, so I can get this behind me. I decided to google the business name Abner Dudley and Associates with the BBB. Long behold, they have ten complaints and so many bad reviews. And the kicker was the business address 154 W Foothill Blvd Ste A-372, Upland, CA 91786 belongs to The UPS Store.

After uncovering all of this, my husband was right. I am so glad I didn't let fear get the better of me and just settled by paying $1,500.00 to a scam artist. But now I am so pissed. This scammer went to great lengths to get in touch with me. After the fact, my daughter even said that Sabrina Sundeen called my ex-brother in-law as well. It is just unbelievable the lengths that they are willing to achieve in taking your hard-earned money, even during these trying times where so many people are out of work or fighting covid, and losing love ones in the process; this is just downright shameful. I hope this helps someone not to fall prey to this scam

I have a call, from the same company and yes I made a range payment and this is been bothering me, until I did my research and report the issue

- Suamico, WI, USA

Received a phone call from a blocked number. They said they mailed something to me 2 weeks prior to the phone call about what the complaint/issue was about. I didn't know what she was talking about. She gave me a number to call (866-979-0648) with a case number. So I called the number and he knew my name and full social security number. He said I was being sued by Jackson Memorial Hospital in Florida for an unpaid medical bill. I've never been there. I started asking if this was some kind of fraud thing, and he wrapped up the conversation and said 'see you in court'. I called Jackson Memorial Hospital, they had no record of me owing for anything either.

BEWARE.

This loser called us as well and was speaking to my husband after he got home from surgery, I heard my husband talking about unpaid medical bills and my red flax went up (we don’t have any) I told him to give the guy (Brian Lawson) permission to speak to me. Brian Lawson said they sent us paperwork in March and we received nothing, I asked him to send it again and nothing. He was threatening to levy our bank account for $784.10 from 10 years ago Nov 2010 from Community Health Systems (who do not own any hospitals in Nv) he had no info he could give me and told me I would have to supoena our own paperwork/ info. My husband was active duty Navy in 2010 so I knew this “bill” was BS he told me not to be aggressive or he would hang up on me. He put me on hold twice. I told him sorry for getting angry ( really wasn’t) it’s just that there are so many scammers out there Especially since Corona, he replied with if I was a scammer I would t have your address, bday, phone number etc, etc and I said yes a scammer would absolutly have all that info and you should know that your a lawyer oops sorry a paralegal. I was pissed and a teeny concerned just in case it was real for some reason. I was not going to give him any money tho without proof and he could not mail or provide me with any proof. He worked at Abner and Associates legal services, the numbers he used were 1 (786)353-3075 Ex 110 this number did not work when I called back the next day so he could speak to Tricare he told me the Extention Was 1001 still didn’t work. 1-855-905-1488 this one he did pick up that’s when he told me I got the Ex wrong that I didn’t. So he gave this other number and it was (909)304-3776. I asked why so many phone numbers and why one didn’t work and why he answered two of the numbers and not the one he gave me, one of the numbers was from my husbands phone by the way but he said the company was really big and all over the country so I found it weird he answered 3 out of 4 of the numbers he gave. He started fumbling his words and got mad at me. Anyhow sorry for all the run on sentences and bad punctuation etc I just wanted to add my experience. This is a scam and I don’t see how Brian Lawson/ Jennings and the woman haven’t been caught (we did not speak to a woman). I am so happy I didn’t not pay them. The dude at first sounds like a lawyer he does sound legit until you ask lots of questions, it isn’t hard to rattle him that was my first clue he was fake along with the refusal of sending me paperwork. DO NOT FALL FOR IT. My mind is finally at ease I just found these encounters today.

This was June 29 he called us

I have been contacted a few times by Abner Dudley Associates regrading a medical bill from a few years ago. When I asked for details on this bill all they would tell me is to look at my credit report in between 2 other accounts. They had sent me a document on Docusign to review and sign stating that I could either settle or be taken to court and be fined double the amount. Out of fear I set up a payment arrangement (knowing now I never should have). As the day went on I got to realizing how shady it all was and called my wife who had looked into it further even calling the police department who had informed her it was a scam. Now I have received a couple of calls and voicemails telling me that my card info was declined and I need to get in contact with their office at 9093043803 and speak with Natalie a new account manager as the old one is no longer in that department. Now I have blocked all calls and am moving on.

Is it really legal to call a number and leave a full message stating this person business on an unknown caller that knew the lady they were inquiring about. Telling them everything from case number and a legal matter. But daughter in law called back they wanted to know if her name was Crystal, if she knew her and was this the number to contact her and if it was her address. And they called the daughter-in-law on her cell phone number.But yet they wanted to know if she could give her a message. But why after why they already left everything on her answering machine . Of someone else’s business.

I was originally contacted by a Brian Lawson 855-908-1488 that stated he was representing a company that I had a prior debt with. He stated they sent a letter to my residence over 30 days ago and did not receive a response so they will proceed with a bank lien. He stated I had a certain timeframe to respond or make a payment. I called a few days later and he stated I can make a payment, I made a payment, he emailed a receipt from Docusign from a company named Southwest Financial, his name on the receipt was Brian Jennings, The next day I receive a voicemail from a woman saying the sane thing he said about the debt last week, she did not leave a name just the 855-908-1488 to call the attorney. I spoke with my attorney and he advised me to let Brian know that he can call them to discuss any further issues.

- Forney, TX, USA

received a call at my place of employment from someone at Abner and Associates regarding an unpaid medical bill for $1200 from a couple of years ago. They said a lawsuit has been filed against me on behalf of Community Health Systems and the judgement is for double what the original bill was for. The individual with the firm was rude and hung up on me when I tried to get more details. So, I looked up Community Health Systems on the internet only to find there are no locations near me. I called Community Health Systems and right away the woman who answered told me it was a scam! They have received several calls regarding the same issue and she even provided me with the full name of the scammers....Abner, Dudley and Associates! The phone number was 866-989-1011 and case # was 433434. These people need to be STOPPED!!!

This is the exact story this guy said to my husband and I in June

I will say I wish I had taken a few minutes to slow my thinking before jumping into making a payment. I was contacted by a Kristen for Abner, Dudley Assoc who said my husband was going to have his wages garnished. Now, I know that can't be done but still in the heat of the moment I panicked. It was for a credit card dating back before 2003 when we had 2 small children and I was working part time. It came down to pay unsecured credit card or pay house bills and provide for family. Well, guess what did get done. It's embarrassing and yes, we learned over the years of how stupid that is. I paid, got my email from Brian Jennings which I wondered why not coming from Kristen...then after researching I found that even though they were nice I was definitely scammed. Please learn from me and don't fall for it!

I received a call from a restricted number to my personal cell phone and a voicemail that indicated I was named in a legal complaint in Allegheny County, PA where I reside. The woman indicated that she would be sending paperwork that I would need to respond to. I never received any paperwork detailing the complaint. A week after the initial call, the woman contacted my brother's cell phone, leaving the same message. I returned the call to get more information. I spoke with a man named Joseph who indicated that the complaint is related to the collection of a Visa credit card debt issued by Maryland Bank. When I asked for more information about the account, such as when it was opened, he offered only that payments were made and my social security number, which he rattled off verbatim, was associated with the account. He also knew the credit lines and last-four digits of my existing accounts. This led me to believe that there may be some legitimacy to his ask. Joe indicated that the amount I owed, which included interest, was nearly $8,000.00, but since my credit score is excellent they would settle for $3,900.00, the original debt. He used tactics such as indicating this was quite a good settlement which would keep me form going to court, paying court costs and legal fees, and having my checks and accounts garnished. I asked if I could have more information in writing to better understand what the debt was about. I'm a single parent with 3 small children, working remotely, in the middle of a pandemic.

My request to review a document before submitting a large sum of money is within reason and should be expected. Any emotion or request that I made was met with the threat of legal action, spinning the conversation on me as being aggressive or non-compliant. The negotiation ended with him speaking with his supervisor about a settlement of $2,500.00. He asked for my email address so he could send the agreement. This was when I found out the name of Joseph's "firm." A Google search brought up numerous complaints and fraud charges associated with this subhumans. When confronted, he responded that he didn't look at blogs and reviews and that we would have to go to court if they didn't receive payment today.

They contacted me by phone saying I was being sued by us bank, for an 11 year old debt, and if I didn’t settle with them I would be taken to court and my bank account would be closed and my wages would be garnished. I agreed to settle but would call them with a prepaid card the next day. I googled both the numbers they called me from and their “law firm” and pulled up a news source about someone scamming people from that company, 3 complaints on bbb, 1 on the irs FTC page and multiple random ones on the web claiming they are scammers. I called us bank and they have no records of anything. I told Kristen Evans (the “lawyer”) about my contact with US bank and she claimed they wouldn’t have record of it because they haven’t filed the charges yet. A bunch of bull. So I asked for proof of who she was and the debt. She sent me an online document of a payment agreement to sign as her proof. So now I’m being sued according to her and going to owe thousands of dollars to us bank. Even though they have no records of me owing them anymore. They called by a private number and had me contact them at ?(866) 915-2097? the first time then after that contacte me through ?+1 (909) 304-3785?. The lady who contacted me claimed to be from Abner dudleys and associates and claimed her name was Kristen Evans. The email I got the “proof” from was from Brian Jennings. And they had the last 4 of my social which they didn’t ask me to confirm my identity, they told it to me. They didn’t once say they were recording the conversation for legal purposes which if they wanted to get me to acknowledge the debt they would have and she basically hung up on me after I told her she isn’t accredited by the bbb and has had 3 complaints filed in the last year and also has an F rating from them.

- Seattle, WA, USA

On 2/11/20 I was contacted on my cell phone (phone display said Private Number) from a women telling me that I would be receiving a notification regarding a civil complaint from Pierce County. She said she couldn't provide any information but she gave me a phone number to call along with a case number. I called the number. After being on hold, a man came on (Brian Lawson) telling me that I was being taken to court for a credit card balance from 2007. He didn't say who he was with or that he was trying to collect a debt. He sent me an email offer letter dropping the amount in half to pay it right away. I responded to the email that I needed a few days so I could discuss this with my husband. I have had no reply.

Today, I received a phone call at my work. I told him I had replied to his email. I then asked him not to call me at work. He got nasty and said that he would call me at work and that he would call my HR Dept and garnish my wages.

I don't feel this is legitimate. The debt is too old and he's pushing too much. When I told him that this debt was over 7 years old, he said that they could pursue for 10 years and that the 10 years was up in April 2020. I have researched the web and have found that in WA State the statue of limitations is 6 years on credit card debt and in California (where this company is located at) credit card statue of limitations is 4 years.

Back in 2007, my Dad died, my husband was not working and things were really bad for us. I think the last payment I made on this card was August or September 2007. This isn't anything I'm happy about or proud of - but I don't want to be bullied either.

The phone number i was given to call was 866.318.0528 and my case number was WA863216. The man I talked with was Brian Lawson. When he emailed me, it came from a Brian Jennings. The company name on this letter was Abner, Dudley and Associates, 154 W Foothill Blvd, Ste A-372, Upland, CA 91786 866.318.0528 fax 909.912.8497. I can't find a Business License for them in California. The address seems to be a UPS store location. They aren't ScamPulse.com accredited either.

I am contacting a lawyer to make sure i'm within my rights to ignore this and wait to see if they can do what they are trying to do.
