Type of a scam Debt Collections

Tried to get $3000.00

I received a call and the person asked for my wife and said they tried to call her at her cell number. They gave me a case number and a phone number which she needed to call. She called them and they provided her with the last 4 of her social, our address and stated she owed over $3000 on a credit card that HSBC was suing her over due a credit card non payment. They asked if we got the papers which were taped to our door, no we did not he then said someone will be by in 1 hour to serve her papers and put a lien on our house. The credit card In question did in fact go to collections but we paid it in full and sent him the proof to [email protected]. The whole thing seemed shady. He never asked for money as we told him we had proof of the debt being paid in full. He never said he was contacting us to collect a debt either.

Ditto: Pretty convincing scare tactics

Pretty convincing scare tactics
Jasmine called me saying they were serving me papers. Then left me a message saying the same. I called the # she left and a man answered. At first he never said the name of the company. Only said my name and last 4 of my SSN and that I was being sued. He asked me if I received the letter they sent me. I said no. He read me my street address to confirm them. He told me that I had 1 hour to pay the settlement amount or pay a down-payment and make payments on the total balance. He said it was from a credit card that I signed an agreement for in 2006, it was sent to collections in 2009, and then Citibank filed it as bad debt and that they have infinite years to collect on it. If I didn't pay it within an hour, he'd have to close the case and I'd be served papers at work. They couldn't provide me with any other information about the account. I asked him for proof of debt. He told me that they didn't have to provide it. He sent me a link to sign a payment agreement. Again I asked him for more time to verify this wasn't a scam. They then threatened me with over $11,000 in legal fees and court costs. I played a long and then locked my checking account . Now I can contacting the police and trying to shut down these scammers.

Jasmine called my brother, and stepmother saying they were serving me papers. Then left me a message saying the same. I called the # she left and a man answered. At first he never said the name of the company. Only said my name and last 4 of my SSN and that I was being sued. He asked me if I received the letter they sent me. I said no. He read me my street address and my husband's name to confirm them. He told me that I had 1 hour to pay the settlement amount or pay a down-payment and make payments on the total balance. He said it was from a credit card that I signed an agreement for in 2009, it was sent to collections in 2021, and they have 6 years from 2021 to collect on it. If I didn't pay it within an hour, he'd have to close the case and I'd be served papers at work. I was out picking my daughter up from school and at work after. My husband and I both asked him for proof of debt. He told my husband that they didn't have to provide it. He sent me a link to sign a payment agreement. Again I asked him for more time to verify this wasn't a scam. He said that I could go to mpmprocessing.com, it's where people make their payments. My husband told him we weren't paying someone we didn't know was legitimate. He said we'd be served papers and someone would be at the house within the hour. No one came.
