Cease & Desist
Date: Wed, 10/17/2007 - 14:59
Ooook...I think CA's are being pissy little jerk-os. All my letters have this:
It is inconvenient for me to receive calls at my home or place of employment; I require any communication from you to be in writing via United States Postal Service.
Well when dealing with LVNV I decided to make a call, see if I can get any violations on the phone. I ask the lady why they sick their lawyer- CA on me while the debt is in dispute and not even bother to send validation.
The bitchy woman replied in a very snide manner that we sent them a cease and desist so they can not validate. I told her to put her glasses on and re-read the letter, that I just said no more phone calls.
Well, seems another CA is using this tactic as well. I get a letter from a new CA I never head of, oh and get this..no mini-miranda..the letter opens with this:
As you recall, MKM Acquisitions has purchased the above referenced account.
Ok…just days ago Accounts Receivable had it. So, I decide to call ARM and ask them if they sold the account. The man tells me he can’t talk to me because of the cease and desist. Hello. The cease and desist is so they can’t call me, states that rather plainly. This seems to be a new BS tactic of CAs that I thought you all should know.
So I guess I have to go DV this MKM. I wonder if they are using that above opening statement to try and bypass the 30 day window…lucky for me I’m in Texas and there IS no 30 day window heh heh heh.

They read what parts that they want to read and ignore the rest.
