888-807-5801

My dad got a call from this number about it being some legal documents! They gave me a case number and said that they couldn't open until he calls them about a court date? Can I report it? I mean what kind if company is this to gave some "legal documents" that supposively belong to my dad!?

My son got a call from them, so did my brother. I also have a case number. You can call after hours, an answer machine says Rubin & Weissman.  I think its a debt collector.

I got the same call with a case number and the whole nine yards, they said i had a credit card in my (which i never had) and to either pay or get taken to court ! I call the credit card company that they told me and the credit card co doesn't have me on file or anything, this number is a scam to get info from you !

same thing.  they got a hold of my dad multiple times.  they even said they were going to deliver a certified letter to his home!  they never did.  they told him they didn't know what it was, only that it was legal documents.  even if it is an old debt, still very sketchy!

Received a call from 213260943, giving me a document number for a summons. I had to dian another number to find out what the summons was, called, and they told me to hold on, so I just hanged up the phone. This got to be a SCAM!

I got this call also they told me I owe money on a credit card didn't know I had I think it is a scam

My dad got a call from another number referencing this number to call with a case number.  They said that civil legal papers would be delivered to the house on Monday.  I did not call the number to find out who was calling.

Oh my God!  I have been screwed, yet again.  I can't believe that so many people are out there do this type of thing to to people who have nothing.  I got a call from this company claiming I owed $700 from a Visa Card I supposedly received in 2001.  They sounded legit but after I started thinking about this I realized the date of the credit card didn't match the date or time I lived in the State they say I received the CC.  How do I get my money back?  When a person is threatened with a law suit, legal judgments it is quite scary and we so often don't want the problem so without thought we accept their terms.  Well I got screwed and now I need to know what to do.  I am disabled, 100%, financially unable to just pay a bill outright, though I did give them half of the money they said I owed.  What do I do and how do I get this problem straightened.  This is not my bill, I did not then and have not ever had a Visa CC.  HELP ME PLEASE!

1-888-807-5801 is the number I called after being called from (562) 257-3899 stating they were trying to send me legal documents, and claim that they are not able to send me the documents. When I called the 888 number and gave them my fake case number, she wanted the last 4 of my ss# number I refused to give her the number, and she said she could not give me anymore information, I asked her the companies name, and she said Reuben and Associates. I asked the company address and she refused to give it to me, I said why won't you give me your company address, and she said we don't give that out, I said if you are a legit businuess you are legally required to give out your address, why would you want to hide your address if you are a legit business anyway? She hung up on me. I called back again and said I want your address, if you are a legit businuess you would give it to me, again she refused, I told her I was going to keep calling and she said that's ok, I will just block your number. Called again with a different phone numbers, and got different people, and they all refused to give me their businuess address, I said I want your address to send you a cease and desist letter, and you would give me your address if you were a legit businuess, they stuck with the same thing saying they would not give it out, also tried to make a mockery of me. They have been calling my Mom and harassing her as well! They are a SCAM---do not believe them or give them ANY of your information. A legit company does not HIDE their address from anyone. PLEASE report this company, as I am doing.

MY FRIEND GOT SCREWED TO, HE PAID THE OWE AMOUNT $872.00, BECAUSE HE WAS SCARED, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT TO DO FOR HIM,

My grieving father got a call from these people about legal documents to be delivered tomorrow and a case number and they file is sealed and can't be opened. I called them back and asked them to contact my lawyer and they refused. My Guess is a scam. Spoke to Michelle Turner, and transferred me to Stephen McCoy they claim it was for a bounced check to ACE Cash Express, a company I have never done business with, on a Bank account I have never had, when I asked for a copy of the documents, I was told it was sealed and could not be provided. This is not the first time they have tried this scam and since the last time was about a month ago I doubt it will be the last time.

They have been callin gmy cell and now my work saying the same as you guys. Now my work thinks I have legal issues? How do I stop this????

We received numerous phone calls from someone who leaves this telephone number and gives a case number.  We are told they are going to be serving one of our employees with legal documents and ask if someone is going to be here at our address.  They say they are going to be in our area so they will deliver it today.  I checked the caller ID and it's from Montana.  We're here in Hawaii.  Of course, they never deliver anything.

A few days later they call again and ask if I gave the person the message about the "legal documents".  I said I did and ask if they came to deliver it.  She says that she did.  I told her she was lying since no one ever came to the office.  

Don't fall for this scam.  I feel sorry for the people who believe them and send them money.

I am received numerous calls for some third person, I am not aware.. and it is all about delivering a legal document for a court summon..

This company Rubin & Weizmann, LLC called me and threatened to send a sheriff to my house for an "unpaid debt". They told me very little but enough that the scared me into agreeing to allow them to debit my Discover Card for two amount for a total of $325.00. They then told me that once it is declared "paid as settlement" they would notify me of who was the "original creditor" When I got the letter. it look so fake and it said the crediotr was ACE CASH EXPRESS. I called them many times to inform them that I never did business with that company. I even called Ace Cash Express which said they didn't have me ever as a customer.
I then did some on line research to find out I wasn't the only vivtim of their scam. I called my Discover Card Fraud Unit and they advised me that they would dispute both charges and charge them back to Rubin & Weizman,LLC. I want proof of documents that shows if the account was from a former fraud account or if there was a singnature on file. I also disputed this this issue thru the BiBB-Orland FL and they couldn't get the case resolved either. It was just closed out a "UNRESOLVED" I just called Rubin & Weizmann on Fri, April 5th snd  the same girl that threatened to have me arressted if it was apid back in Feb 2013, said her "BOSS" would be willing to credit my Discover Card for the same amount they took out!!!  Is this a sam or what????????

To those who's employers are being called, print off this page and/or ask them to look up ANY of these numbers and see that these folks are nothing but FRAUDS, even though they DO have collection agency license ... for the moment.  Actually, the one for Rubin & Weizmann, LLC was terminated 8/8/13, so they have NO business calling anyone about ANY debt.  But, they're in a "ring" with some others, all in the same offices, so you may get calls from them.

There are complaints about them all over the internet for harassing people that do not owe the debt, threatening to arrest people for a debt, telling people the only way they'll stop calling is to pay "court costs" on an alleged suit they filed, etc.  According to some of the MANY complaint pages and numbers they've called using, it seems they call about debts that are 5-10 years old, don't care if they were paid or not because they want money.  There are people who have fallen for this, and stated that they paid, and are STILL waiting on getting the documentation of the debt from them.  Of course, their story is that they sent it out ... yeah, right.
What's laughable is one page on their website that says they follow the law during collection attempts.  OBVIOUSLY, NOT!  THEY have an F rating with the FL BBB (see below).

By the way, it would seem to me that, IF you had a bad debt, it would show on your credit report (if still eligible to be reported).  IF you do have a bad debt on your credit report, you might want to consult an attorney and/or the original creditor, rather than these folks who obviously could care less about the law.  [I am NOT an attorney, nor do I profess to be one.  I am NOT dispensing “legal advice,” simply giving my opinion!]

IF they were calling about a legitimate debt, they would NOT be calling to see if you'll be home all day on certain day to "deliver legal documents" or "subpeona."  A legit collector CANNOT discuss your bill with anyone else OR threaten to arrest you and/or send you to debtor's prison, etc.

Make yourself aware of the rules in the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT.--http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpa/fdcpact.shtm  
Here is more info on it from the FTC Consumer information -- http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection
It's glaringly apparent that these folks enjoy breaking most of these rules.

Hope this helps someone!

[NOTE: As far as I’m personally concerned, the behavior of these companies IS a form of domestic terrorism, although the FBI may not.]

It also occurs to me that, particularly on the GreenDot/Prepaid card “payments,” since they are apparently difficult to trace, I seriously doubt they are reporting these funds on their income taxes === tax evasion.  (That’s the way they finally got Al Capone!)  The IRS has forms for reporting suspected evasion, and even a reward form you can complete for if you help them catch the folks!
http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/How-Do-You-Rep ... aud-Activity%3F   (I’m 99% sure it’s the Form 3949-A that you’ll want to complete if you’ve been swindled by these folks.)    It looks like Form 211 is to claim a reward!

http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f211.pdf  -- Reward form

   I personally don’t care WHICH branch of the government goes after these people, as long as THEY get REAL FEDERAL ARREST WARRANTS out on them!!  So, if you’ve been taken in by these folks, besides filing with the above, don’t forget the IRS!  (You KNOW they like going after money!!!)

It may not help, but it certainly wouldn’t hurt to fill the mailboxes at the White House with letters about these folks.  If the President wants to get involved with courts and everyday peoples’ lives, then he needs to get involved in THIS!
http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact  -- to the right side of the page, there are links for leaving online comments, writing a letter, or calling the White House.



I'd suggest giving a list of time, date, phone number, and anyone's name you were given on these calls...EVEN if you didn't answer or it went to VM.

SUGGESTIONS (again, I am NOT an attorney and am NOT attempting to dispense legal advice.  These are my PERSONAL suggestions)
1-IF you decide to answer one of their MANY calls from about 50 different telephone numbers (no, I’m not exaggerating), give them NO INFORMATION.  In fact, YOU MAKE THEM ANSWER QUESTIONS, and if they don’t, hang up on them!   I don’t know anything about spoofing/masking numbers, but there have been comments that they are VOIP’ing the majority of the numbers they’re calling from.  I do not doubt this, as a person said the number showing on her phone was that of the local police department.
2-Keep a running log of the date, time, telephone number, person calling and note of conversation to file with your complaints.  (Or, try to record the call, BUT they usually hang up when they’re told they’re being recorded.  ROFLOL, now how many LEGITIMATE collection agencies would do that?  NONE that I’ve ever heard!
3-Look up your state’s Statute of Limitations on debts that can be pursued in court (that you can still be sued for).  It seems to vary from 3-15years.
4-DO NOT allow them to intimidate or frighten you.  These idiots have even called the numbers attorneys, police officers, etc. with this scam.  Intelligent, they are NOT.  

USUAL PLOYS:
1-call friends, neighbors, relatives, employers, and you trying to intimidate you into paying JUST to make the calls stop (but, from looking online, they don’t stop…they just demand more). – Ask these folks to also keep a log of the calls, give them this internet page to check.  Ask them to do a search for ANY of these company names.  They’ll soon realize it that these people are nothing but SCAMMERS.
2-“…have important legal documents (or summons) to deliver, will you be home ---(day) from 8:30 to 4:30 to accept it?”
3-“There’s a warrant out for your arrest UNLESS you send us $xxx TODAY”  -- they seem to prefer asking for the “Green Dot” prepaid card and want you to call back with the numbers on back … harder to trace where to $ goes, apparently.

COMPANY NAMES:
Goodman and Stern LLC, aka GSA Recovery, aka GSA Management Orlando, FL  … AND/OR … EIESNBURG, WHITMAN & ASSOCIATES LLC, Rubin and Weizman, LLC.


TYPE OF CALL:
SCAM AND/OR EXTORTION BY A DISREPUTABLE LICENSED COLLECTION AGENCY
