These folks called my house and left a message looking for me saying there was a complaint and I needed to call them back. Out of curiosity I called them back with the apparent case number. I apparently owed money to some party and they mailed me a statement 45 days earlier. I was greeted by a woman saying nothing more than "Brown Goldman & Associates, I need your name and case number. I told them and then was put on hold. Another individual picked up who gave me his name as "Derrick".

He asked me the same two questions and put me on hold again. After a few minutes I finally got through to an individual who didn't even give me his name. He started rambling on about how they sent me a notice in the mail which I never received.

I told them that I would be happy to clear any debt if they would send me the statement. They told me the time for that has passed and gave me three options.

1. Try my luck in court and possibly get the amount nullified but there would be lawyer fees.

2. Overnight a check and email them a tracking number.

3. Pay with debit or credit.

4.Buy a pre paid card and give them the number.

Thinking this is still a legitimate situation (a few red flags were starting to show). I asked how the overnight check method would work. He explained that I would write the check out for the amount and have it overnighted and to send them an e-mail with tracking number.

This sounded insane to me. They wanted my e-mail address so they could send me an agreement to sign and mail back. I gave them an old e-mail I haven't used in years in case it was fake. After giving them the e-mail they asked if I was ready to write down the address in which to mail the check to. I said ready and the phone line went dead.

Now that I think about it I think they wanted me to write a blank check and mail it.

Anyway. They called me three times on the land line (I was on my cell phone). No answer again on there side. I gave up and went to work.

I came home to a voice mail they left saying they had phone issues and he gave me his name and extension. Jonathan West.

I'm fairly sure this was a scam also because I Google mapped the address and it was for a strip mall. Using street view I found no law offices in the area or signs of that name.

First call from 4075847169 saying she was just a locator. told my husband he was hard to find (not true, never moved without a forwarding address - and correct information in major credit bureaus). Said she would be giving phone number to collection case worker. *** called from 8662170579 ext 403. Said our case number is 72883523 and it is from a MasterCard used 2002-2006 and that a judgment had been issued in 2010 for $3500 with 10 years to collect on. The original amount was $900, the judgment with attorneys fees was for $3500 but he would settle the claim today for just $526.15 using a credit card over the phone. My husband offered him cash and he said no, had to be a credit card, then my husband told him that his wife handles all his business and I would call him back. My husband called me upset, I assured him this is a scam and investigated as much as much as possible (my husbands current credit score is 768 with zero collections and zero public records). *** called back and told my husband that I never called and my husband told him that there wasn't anything in the credit bureau about the judgment and *** told him they don't automatically report it, they give them a chance to pay it. He told my husband he would be filing the case today and a process server would be out in the afternoon, to make an offer and settle. My husband told him it was stupid to expect someone to settle a bad credit card debt with a current credit card and he would be home waiting for the summons and he looked forward to seeing him in court.
