I got a call from this number from Gary Baker, it was a voicemail. When I called back, an Adam Pleviak answered the phone and said he was Finch, Pleviak and Associates and that they were working with the Attorney General's office in Wisconsin and an "Affidavit" against me on Monday at 10:00. I informed him that my debt with Check n Go had been discharged in my bankruptcy, he said well that makes no sense, maybe Gary was calling you to help you. I said help me how? Are you trying to collect money and he said no, but he could fill out a stop action form and talk to the attorneys and tell them my side of the story. The attorney being a Steven (Steve/Stephan/Stephen Finch) out of Dallas Texas and that they could work a possible settlement. Sounds to me like he was a debt collector and was trying to get around the fact that I had filed bankruptcy. He said that my closing my checking account was a federal white collar crime and the funds were considered stolen. When I asked him to send me something in writing, he stated he couldn't. When I asked him to talk to my attorney, he said he couldn't because I had a bankruptcy lawyer and not a criminal one. When I asked who the contact was at the Attorney General's office in Wisconsin was, he gave me the name of the actual Attorney General. Wouldn't the person "handling" this be lower down than that? Also, Why would the Wisconsin Attorney General be involved in a "federal" matter?


that is also a scam to mislead you the one who filed for bankruptcy. if they can not give something in writing it is a scam. as they are in Texas and you are in Wisconsin i would have to say if it look like a scam and feels like a scam it is one.

Call or get in touch with the Attorney General see if you are really in their system. Sometimes it's only talk.

Thank you both for your responses. He said that they are actually based out of dallas tx, but I couldn't find them anywhere, not the attorney (except for a real estate attorney) or their supposed firm name....its is really bizarre. a search of their phone number is 214-377-4820 pulls up whocallsme etc with more information about threatening tactics. What's weird is the attorney general is closed on Monday except for the Handgun hotline also, he said they would file in milwaukee county, isn't my county where they should file?

they all use real law firms to scare people who owe debt to creditors. The only way to fight them is writing them and having some kind of written statement on their behalf.

it feels like a scam to me. Got a letter from someone saying to call a certain person only to find out it is a scam from california. They all use places in us to threaten debtors to pay their debts.

they could say they are based somewhere in the US but they are really overseas like somewhere in Asia or Europe.

This Gary Baker also called me, he said he was with the Texas Attorney General's office in Dallas. Mind you there is no Attorney General office in Dallas. He called my place of employment and told me that the police were on the way to "detain" me, I said ok thats fine I will see them when they get here. He called back several more times to speak with different coworkers and members of management to let them know that he was with the Harris County Police Dept. and that i was a person of interest in a matter. His tactics of debt collection are unethical and illegal. I meet with my Fair Debt 1 in the morning to see exactly how I can file suit against him. I filed a formal complaint with the Attorney General's office. This Gary Baker is something else, I also read a post where he said he a Federal agent to someone else. Its also against the law for debt collectors pose as any government official and that person is also filing suit.

I received a call from Adam Pleviak stating he was an attorney with the state of Ohio and investigating me for bank fraud, theft, and passing bad checks and that he was dispensing affidavits to have me arrested for felonies.He told me to call 512-777-4311 or I would be arrested if I did not come up with $669.10 today.

I guess there's a bunch of such con artists/ illegal telemarketers who'd do such things. It's not going to be a wise decision to pay a single cent without knowing their true identity. I think it's right to do it the way the police has instructed you. Reporting it to the FBI might see it through another level, but it's not a bad step if you're getting too many calls to ignore.

I got a call from Adam Pleviak yesterday at work. He said that an affidavit was being filed and I had three felony charges being filed against me. I was being accused of a white collar crime but he could file a stop action form on my behalf if I could pay the debt off before 1:00 p.m. So I came home and googled him. Thanks the comments are helpful.
