I received a phone call from 3 people from E-max that don't stop calling. First a Mark Ford called saying he wants $688 due immediately from a deby due from Bahamas Marketing Group. I told him to give me his telephone number and he gave 1-800-458-9081. Then I asked him where he was located and he said Somerset, NJ. (Kind of strange when all 3 people have an Indian accent and couldn't even provide me an addressof his location). When I asked for the address he placed me onhold and hungup.

Round 2 (10 minutes later), I get a call from Sophia stating she was from Emax. I told her I do not know who you are and not to call again. I hung up on her.

Round 3 (5 minutes later), Sophia calls back and says my manager wants to talk to you named Keith. I get Keith on the phone and tell him to give me his location, address, phone number, license number, agency number, also to mail me a validation that he has the right to collection in my state. He claims he mailed me a leeter on 9/1/05 stating that I owe $638 for a debt from PPGC (Premier Processing Group) I said what? Keith said ok it's $526.50. He changed the price again. I told him the phone line is being recorded and he said no do not record the phone line. I said do not call me again and only mail me documents he said, "I will keep calling you everyday until you fax me a cease and desist letter to 732-748-4381". I then said, "don't order me around. why don't you give me your address and i'll have my attorney send you a legal document." he said, "you don't need my address. you just need my fax number."

I just started laughing at him and said, "Keith you are funny. Are you sure you are with a real collection agency? You are just making me laugh to hard." He said, "stop it. it's not funny. Ok give me $500 dollars." I told him keep calling and wasting your time because I have better things to do then to waste my time on the phone with you and he said, "you will see when the documents come in the mail". I said, "go ahead. mail them and we'll be in touch then."

This is just so ridiculous and I think we can all agree that these documents will probably never come in the mail. This company called E-max apparantly bought the accounts from Ellis Crosby and Associates. Now they are trying to act like a real collection company but they won't provide you with a mailing address. This is because they are so illegal.

If you receive a call from E-max I guess its just going to be a funny call. just tell them you are recording the line whether they like it or not. You will only continue the conversation with them if they answer questions for you and provide you with a mailing address.
