I guarantee that we will still get horror stories about them or other related operations even after the suit was filed. They are so arrogant.

I'm glad to see that the AG's are waking up and realizing what is going on. In the last few months alot of the AG offices have went after collection agencies, internet pdls. I see a big change coming in our favor.
Thank You! That is so freaking awesome! I love it! :D :D :D

This lawsuit was initiated by you,the consumer.The article states that over 130 complaints hit Ag office in one month causing him to take action.This is great news and always remember to file with the Attorney Generals in consumer disputes.

Well, at least now I know my complaint didn't go unheard. Finally maybe we will see justice against these thieves.
Bass and Associates
Can someone please tell me if United
Pay Services/Pre-Litigation Services/United
Federal Bank/I-Collect is part of Bass and
& Associates. This is the company that
has the foreigners calling and making
all types of threats which sounds like
some of the Bass postings here.
thanks Happy July 4th

I'm hoping to see some criminal action taken as well, they have represented themselves as attorneys among many other professions which is illegal, they have also committed extortion with the false threats which caused unknowing consumers to give up hard earned cash out of fear of losing their freedom and family. :twisted:

Yes, I just read it. If the AG wins, and I'm sure he will, Bass is finished along with the Jacksons. Anyone who has been contacted by Bass or Jackson Phillips and has not already done so, file a complaint with the Forida AG. Here's what the Florida AG is requesting of the court in the complaint:
Quote:
WHEREFORE, the Attorney General repectfully requests that the Court enter judgment in its favor for the following relief: a) Permanently enjoin Defendants BASS, JACKSON PHILLIPS, FRANK JACKSON, and EVELYN JACKSON and its officers, agents, servants, employees, attorneys and those persons in active concert or participation with it who recieve actual notice of the injunction, from engaging in the methods, acts or practices alleged herein that are unconscionable acts or practices or deceptive or unfair acts or practices in violation of Chapter 501, Part II, Fla. Stat., pursuant to Section 501.207(1)(b), Fla. Stat. b) Permanently enjoin Defendants BASS, JACKSON PHILLIPS, FRANK JACKSON, AND EVELYN JACKSON from engaging in collection activities in the State of Florida pursuant to Sections 559.55 et seq. and 501.207(3), Fla. Stat.; c) Impose penalties of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) per violation of the Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act pursuant to Section 501.2075, Fla. Stat. and civil penalties in the amount of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000) per willful violation which victimized, or attempted to victimize a person who is 60 years of age or older, pusuant to Section 501.2077, Fla. Stat.; d) Award consumer restitution and damages in an amount to equal the amounts each consumer paid in excess of an amount allowed by law; e) Order the revocation of the Office of Financial Regulation of the Department of Financial Services collections license/registration granted to defendants BASS and JACKSON PHILLIPS pursuant to Section 501.207(3) and 559.730(1) Fla. Stat.; f) Order dissolution of Defendant BASS corporate existence, pursuant to Section 501.207(3), Fla. Stat.; g) Enter Judgment declaring Defendants' actions and practices unlawful under Chapter 501, Part II, Fla. Stat., pursuant to Section 501.207(1)(a), Fla. Stat.; h) Award Plantiff costs and attorneys fees pursuant to Sections 559.77(1) and 501.2105, Fla.

While this is indeed a great day for consumers in Florida, what's to stop these people from just pulling up stakes and moving to a different state? How can we shut them down--not just in Florida but all over?

kscornell,you bring up a very good point.I have been asking members to file with ic3.gov,local fbi office,state bar association,and local police if situation warrants it.Until people start getting jailtime for their actions,it will not sink into their heads.

Absolutely, Cajun. We all need to keep on doing this. Until then, there's nothing to stop them from taking their telephone terrorist act on the road to another state and setting up shop again. They can harass people on the phone just as easily from Delaware as they could from Florida, right? We need to make it so there's nowhere for them to run!

I just ended a phone conversation a little while ago with a friend of mine who works for a government agency in my state. A little bit of interesting news to share here. I've also shared it in the DC forum. It seems that we used to have a poster here awhile ago that worked for Bass. It seems her co-work is possibly on the boards posting as a regular member of the forum. The IP address have been tracked to Florida and they are identical.

This has probably loaded bass with an awful lot of ammo! I really hope that not too many people here get hurt. This could do a few of them in totally. What a betrayal!

irish, I doubt that Bass could use any information against anyone on this board. Information posted on this board is generally anonymous, and wouldn't be admissable. From all I've read, nothing has been posted on this board about Bass which isn't true (as the FL AG's complaint now confirms). Besides, soon Bass will no longer exist.

If anyone receives a pm considered to be threatening,please contact someone in the admin department.That is a civil threat at the least and could be considered a criminal action in some case.Do not let anyone scare you away from the truth of the matter.

Here is a tid-bit of a pm I received, not the threatening one, from the Bass employee who came on a few months back. If you don't believe there is a member among us who is actually a Bass Employee, here is a tid bit of this member's co-worker's admission, and admission about being in prison.
