ADR called stating that I needed to contact them to avoid being sued. They stated the debt was from 2007. It is 2018. They stated they did not have to validate the debt, and I needed to make a payment or get sued. I contacted Bank of America, where they stated the debt originated. They have no knowledge of this company, and stated they were not trying to collect anything from me.

I received a call from someone using the name Stacy White, saying they were an Independent Process Server and would be trying to serve me for a court date and they gave me the number 832-558-8997 to call back. I called, and they said they were Alternative Dispute Resolutions and that they were calling because of a debt owed to a Bank for overdraft fees.

They said I could pay the money (a few hundred dollars) to them immediately or contest in court. When I called the bank they said they had sold the debt almost 10 years back and the company it was sold to has since gone completely out of business due to an unrelated scam.

I called the county constable, they didn't have a process server with that name, and they don't use Independent process servers. When I asked them to send me the details in writing they refused, and gave me a number to the people who hold the debt supposedly, Meridian Capital management. They also claimed to be a mediation firm and refused to send anything in writing, and hung up on me. The number for them was also a Houston number so I am sure I called the same people.

They had called my little brother, and my parents, and had a lot of details about my history with the bank. They almost convinced me they were legit, but with some help from friends and by finding the company name on here (the BBB) I was able to determine it was a scam.

I got a call from a Claire Walker who identified herself as a county employee. She said her office had received a sealed complaint and gave me a file # and telephone # to get the details. When I called that number a man who identified himself as a Kevin Wagner told me that I owed money to someone, and that a certified notice of intent to appear in county court from the county clerk's office would be served on me if I did not settle the debt with his agency within 24 hours of the call. I did my homework on the situation and it's a scam.

Hello I need to report a phone scam. I have received several calls from a woman Nicole Campbell who claims to be a processor for Travis county and attempting to serve me legal documents for a case filed by Wells Fargo. They attempted to have me make a payment over the phone to prevent litigation. I call Wells Fargo who says I do not have an outstanding account. I call the mediator back and inform her of my call to Wells Fargo and she responds that she is turning in as a direct refusal and will recommend they sue for 3 times the original balance and all legal fees if I don’t pay now. I have all voicemails saved.

I have received a few phone calls from private numbers who leave a message telling me I will be served on a certain day between the hours of 3-5 for a court date. They leave a phone number to contact them as well as a case number. I contacted the local county who tell me the case number is not one of theirs and if I was going to have a court date I would get something directly from the county. Also, when I call them back with the number provided, they say they dont make outbound phone calls, even when I explain the called and left me a voicemail that I've also saved, then try and get me to verify my social security number over the phone with them, but refuse to give me more info what this is actually regarding.

I received a message from a Melissa Morgan stating she was hired by a company, she wouldn't disclose the name because it was "confidential". She said she was a legal courier and needed to serve me with some legal documents, she left me a number to call and an account number, the thing is, she called my husband's work first asking for me and then she left the message on my husband's phone, how she got that information is beyond me. The next morning, I call this number and spoke to a Michael Brandt and he proceeded to tell me that I had defaulted on a payday loan with Advance America, he said walked into a location (wouldn't say which location) and asked for a payday loan he game me the date, my employer and my bank information from 2012. This person was telling me that I would get sued if I didn't want to come to a "resolution" and eould be liable for 2000 plus dollars not including my attorney and court fees, but stated we could settle out of court for 856 dollars. I started questioning everything suddenly the call got interrupted by a person that named himself Jeff Cohen, and he proceeded to tell me the same thing and was trying to pressure me into a "resolution" I asked him if legal papers were already drawn, he stated no, I then told him I received a call from a legal courier and that she had legal papers to serve me, he said "oh yeah, we did hire someone" It was all so strange because he kept trying to pressure me and scare me into "settling" out of court. I finally told him I had to end the call and would contact them later in the day. Then I was called again by the courier and said she would extend the delivery of the legal papers for 24 hours because she couldn't explain why the company that she was representing had told me no legal papers had been drawn. I also asked her if we could meet at her office so I could pick up the documents and she stated that she couldn't do that and that it had to be in a disclosed location. I called Advance America and they couldn't find me in their database, and was asked to report it immediately. I hope this helps, it's scary the tactics they use to intimidate people.

I received a voicemail from this company (Jen Coleman) and within 10 minutes they called my mom, dad, sister and grandmother trying to reach me for a "legal matter". Once I called back (speaking to Anthony and Jane) they told me I had a Wachovia/Wells Fargo account back in 2010 that was overdrawn and they were the mediation company. If I didn't agree to set up a mediation, I would be served with court papers at my home and place of work the next day. Knowing I have never in my life used the listed banks, I requested them to provide me the account number and their information. I went into Wells Fargo whom confirmed through my social I have never had an account with them and the provided account number was never vaild in their system. This company harassed myself and my family looking for me, threatened to show up to my home and work and lastly, they knew the last four numbers of my social security number.

Received voicemails from a Piper West and a Chelsea Rickman in which both stated they were an "independent process server out of Riverside County" and have papers to serve requiring my signature in regards to civil lawsuit against me for a debt I owe and that they would be making attempts to serve me in 2 days between the hours of 3-5 at both my residence and places of employment, and should she need to serve to my place of employment then she will require a signature from my supervisor. I was given a number to contact, 844-237-4385, along with my civil court case number to provide to that number to find out what I'm being sued for and in what amount. When I contacted the number initially, an Anthony Adams picked up informing me that I'm being sued for the amount of $800 something and that it can be tripled should this go to court but that if I could make a payment then and there then I would not be served and I would not be sued. This debt was with Cashnet, a company which I did receive a pay day loan for back in 2012, so I believed these scammers and paid an initial amount of $100 with several more payment to be processed in the amounts of $252 until my debt was paid off. I did receive an email from a [email protected] with my payment processing agreement and amounts.

After my initial payment of $100, my proceeding payments did not go through and I began to receive more threatening voicemails. After some research, I've learned that Alternative Dispute Resolutions is in cahoots with Capital Currency Solutions and Great Lakes Capital Management.

When I try to call any of the above numbers, they all go to the same voicemail of Karen Green with Capital Currency Solutions - straight to voicemail when I use my cell phone (I believe my number may be flagged now because all of my calls to any of these numbers now go straight to VM, but when I call from different numbers I get right through).

I spoke to Cashnet who told me my debt has been sold to a different and legitimate collection agency in a much, much lower amount.

When I was finally able to speak to someone in regards to the account and the money I owe, both Anthony Adams and Karen Green get very rude and adamant that they do not have any information in regards to the initial amount I owe but Anthony informed me that my debt must have been sold several times and he has no information how many times or how much interest would have been added.

I received a call from a blocked number and every time I picked up they hung up. Then they left a message threatening to serve me from 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm with papers either at my home of office. I called back the 855 number that was left on the voicemail and the loser who answered said it was for a loan from Check and Go. I told them they had the wrong person and they continued to talk demanding 2,000.00 or I was going to jail. I have never done business with Check and Go.

My daughter received a phone call on her phone from an unknown number. Caller left a voicemail for me stating “My name is Stacy Harris, I am a private courier and I have an outsource to deliver legal documentation to you that is surrounding your name and social security number I will be making several attempts to serve you on Friday, March 23 at your home residence or current place of employment if I am unable to obtain your signature on these documents they will be forwarded out to the county as a direct refusal to sign and you will be in jeopardy of missing an upcoming court appearance if you need further information regarding these proceedings or to reschedule your service date you will need to contact the filing party's office immediately at 866-573-4911 case number is *** (my name) you have officially been notified…” I called the 866 number. Spoke to Kurt Henning who stated that they were a mediator Company-Alternative Dispute Resolutions. He Told me that Lawson Recovery Group (unable to locate a website) would be taking me to court regarding a Visa line of credit. Stating that that last payment made on the Visa was in 2013 and that the lawsuit was for over $5,000. He stated he only had the last 4 number of the visa card and did not have the name of the company whom the visa was issued through. He also showed my address being an address that I have not lived at since approximately 2005. I have never received any paperwork whatsoever regarding this said “collection balance” and it is not listed on my credit report. I called the 866 number back and again spoke to Kurt Henning to get the phone number and address for Lawson Recovery Group and he provided me with a phone number but stated that they may not have much information available for me at this time. He then stated he needed to put me on hold before he provided me with the address. He then hung up on me.

Alternative Dispute Resolutions is NOT a real company. Do not provide them with any personal information if they call you (SSN, DOB, address, account information, NOTHING). They will claim they are going to serve you documentation at your work/home or that you owe them money and demand an immediate payment and provide you with false information. If they give you a case number go onto the court website for that county to see if it is legitimate (it will not be). Let them know you know they are a scam so that they will stop! This is happening Hampton Courts, literally just had this happen but unfortunately they got someone who works in legal.

Received a message from Jared saying he was coming by to serve me papers so I needed to call him back. Called back and spoke with Jane who said I was being sued for nonpayment of a quick cash loan from 2011.....7 years ago! I never took out any sort of loan, so I knew this was BS. I was told my bank branch manager was willing to testify against me. I hung up, called my branch manager who promptly said she hadn't talked to anybody and that this is probably a scam. I called back and spoke to Anthony, the supposed director, who couldn't tell me the name of the bank branch manager, nor what city my bank was in, other than to say, "I'm assuming it's in the town you live in now". I hung up, then called back and got yet another person who refused to give me the address of the company for "safety" reasons.

I had a loan with plain green loans for $500 back in 2012. I paid this debt back in September 2013 in the amount of $800. I got a call yesterday from alternative dispute resolutions saying someone will be bringing me a court summons if I don't set up a 12 month payment for $194 a month for the same loan that I already paid off. I called plain green loans and I was told by them that my loan was paid in full. Don't give these people any of your information!
