Landmark Litigation

I received a phone call from Landmark stating I would be served with a summons for 2 counts. 1 for check fraud and another for worthless check. I called to see what the issue was, as I haven't used my maiden name in 7 years. The man on the other end of the line refused t give me his company address, his location, and refused to send me a letter of dunning. He stated they don't do that. They weren't a collection agency. His job was to inform me of the issues and serve me with a summons if I refused to co-operate with making a payment arrangement. He said he would be in contact with my supervisor and that he would be out to my place of employment this afternoon. He has my old address on file and used my maiden name. Any help on this?


I just got the same thing on this...and they refused to give me anything, had no problem giving me all of my public information and wanted to collect payment. I told them i would pay once they sent me documentation...also said to go ahead and send me information on the charges. When I asked for the address of where they were located and the full name of the "law office" they claimed they were from they refused to give it to me stating that they cant do this because I can use it in a case against them. Makes it difficult because I cant file a complaint on them without the information.

These guys are a scam and the worst kind. They wouldn't give me there address and told me I could verify with the company I took the debt out with. So I did call the company and they said Landmark is a fraud! The number they called me on was 8553566151. I called them back and the guy threatened psychical violence and hung up!

I got a call from my in laws stating they called and said I was being served a summons for court for petty theft. I called them back and they tried to work out a settlement. They called family members that I have not spoken to and threatened to have me arrested.

The address she gave me was 2550 Zachary Woods Dr in Marietta, GA and she did not give me her first name and she doesn't say her first name on her voicemail. I am going to look into this address.

I got a call from Eric Schroder yesterday, claiming that there was two charges against me and that a summons would be filed. When I told him I couldn't pay immediately, he tried to work something out. Last night, I got an e-mail from a family member, saying that they called them and gave them the same information. A family member I don't have any contact with. I called the number provided back, and was told that they are located in Fairfax VA. IT'S A SCAM

First they called my job identified themselves as "New York" I said that's a state not a company ...she ignored me said they were working for JHS Marketing...told me call her later or they would file charges for larceny.  Called when I got home said I reached Landmark...everytime I brought up a new lie I caughter her in she got defensive and said she's just going to file..would not provide me anything saying I could use it against her company in litigation...I said if you are doing nothing wrong?  Then how? So I reported them to the FTC and my Attorney General's office and told her I would talk to her when I could verify who she was...she just kept threatening me so I hung up.  But she threatened to garnish my wages, and contact my employer and the other references on my loan...the way I caught it was a scam ... the names of the references she gave me ... I don't know them and none of the email addresses she had matched but what worries me is she did have my SS ## correct????

I received a call from them as well. I no longer live in my hometown and the woman that called told me they were a company based in my hometown. She told me I owed one amount and when I called back, she gave me a different amount. When I asked her for their address, she gave me an address in Marietta, GA which is not my hometown. I believe this a scam as well.

These sane people called me and said If I couldn't make my payment today for a payday loan for 200.00 using my visa card they would locate me and lock me up. I told him I can't pay anything and I don't have a visa card then he said so you don't.have a bank account pending in your name
E under your social. I never verified any information over the phone I asked for documentation and the guy told me I received many letters I told him I haven't received nothing in the mail so he really got upset and said he was sending locatera out to find me at my address or old job

My husband got the same call. I was stupid to believe it at first and paid them some money. Now I know better. I had to call and cancel my debit card. They called my from 888-995-1506 and her name was Naomi Jones. The "company" name has changed from Universal to Landmark to Consolidated Legal and now to landmark Legal. They are threatening to serve him with papers but refuse to send us anything proving they did what they claimed or where they are from. This is supposedly from May of 2012!

Sorry, that they scared you enough for you to give them the money. They definitely scammed you. Debts are civil, not criminal they cannot do anything to you. I would report them to your state's AG and the FTC.

They have called, Mrs Jones left a MSG saying the sheriffs office missed me serving my warrant. So I was bored, called her back, and told her I have been at home for the past week, she said well they were going to serve me. I also stated that I had sent them a C and D letter and I was now reporting to all involved, Mr. Wilson whom doesn't rambler cussing at me 2 weeks ago was very apologetic. Just ignore, it will stop! And cutter group will kiss my a$$!

They called my cell phone, some lady named Morrison, senior fire recovery something. The mess wasn't for me but for someone else. She has a case number but I think se made it up or they generate it themselves. She left her number 877-987-7339 ext 407. I called her back but got voice mail. I told her to not call my personal cell number and I didn't know who the person was she was calling about and how did she get my number. I am thinking about calling her a bunch til she tells me how they got my personal cell number.

This is a scam people if they contact you.....immediately request that they give you a debt validation letter showing the debt that you owe within 5 days.....believe me after you request this they will stop because they can't provide it. DONT give them you credit card info. They are using scare tactics to scam people. Tell them you've talked to you're lawyer and they must provide this info or they are violating federal law.!

it is a scam.debts are civil at best.file a police report as they broke the law in infereing arrst.then ignore them.basically if the number looks unfamiliar,or blocked don't answer.then delete the message.

I received a call today from someone calling from Landmark who stated she was a litigator and that I owed money on a loan and because I have not paid uniformed officers were coming to my house today to arrest me. I have bank records showing I have paid $1800.00 on a $300.00 loan. I tried to explain to the so called attorney that I had lost my job in January and sent an email to the loan company asking them to not withdracaw any money from my bank account because I had lost me job and not funds will be deposited until I get back to work. The have continued to try and withdraw the funds which has caused me to go into overdraft for over $757.00. And they continue to try and debit my account. Once a year I get an annuity check for $600.00 that goes direct deposit to my account and that was absorbed by overdraft charges and now I am in overdraft again for $97.00 which is going to continue to happen because these vulture do not cease. I contact the local police and sheriffs department and was told that I cannot be arrested for being in debt. I also contacted the Attorney Generals office and registered a complaint against the so called attorney and Landmark. I provided them with the persons name and phone number. Let's see if this works.

OK...I come home from work & the other half said the neighbor is pi$$ed that an outfit called Landmark called him implying that there's a "Class C felony" out on me & to call them "about a matter". Of course, it's the dirtiest trick in bill collection--just remember to NOT let them use fear like that on you!
By the way, the number they used is 1-855-216-1809. Y'all wanna have some fun? the extension in this case happens to be 224....just sayin' :)

The bottom line is if you owe it pay it! They also called me and I owed the bill and I paid it. If you are a debtor and you owe, pay! They are a legal company just trying to get you, the debtor to pay your bill! Most of the information that they had was legit and I did take out the loan. If I wanted to be a dead beat debtor I would be complaining like it sounds on here, but I owned up to my debt and paid! Bottom line, pay if you owe and don't CRY!!!!

i received the same info. scam. but they called me at work with a person stating they work for the deputy and said i had a certain time to pay and so on, the information they stated as far as account and who i did owe money to was accurate but when I called the company i owed money too they never heard of such a place. But the worst thing about it was like an idiot I paid them before finding more information about this Landmark. can someone give me some advice in what to do next, I will be getting attorney for this bull#$@%$. Iam not out $700 some dollars.........there is more to this story but its too long, im too pissed at this point.

ever hear of chargebacks on a cc,or filing a fraud affidavit with your bank,and cancelling your debit card?the fact that you mentioned an attorney who will charge you more than 700.00 to investigate just to tll you there is no real info so there's nothing they can do.that makes you an idiot.to #17 that goes double for you.

Hear this. This girl from Landmark Collections had the nerve to call my 74 year old father and tell that I owed them 200.00 for a payday loan I borrowed back in July. When I called her back she was absolutely disgusting chewing gum and laughing in the background. She told me that I must give her my a cc now or the sheriff would be comin to pick me up for processing. She said the charge is cc fraud class c felony. Well, I knew I owed the damned company 200.00 and I called to make payment arrangements with them but the number no longer exists. At this point I was a bit shaken because this nut job comes off very aggressive and stern. She then in such a loud voice asks me if my father could pay. I told her no and that I would make payment arrangements with her. As I began to ask her for her company info she starts stalling and now wants to rush me off the phone. I told her I needed info to give to my attorney for followup. She then tells me she has to go and I had better call her back in 45 minutes or she would be pushing the button and sending ppwrk for a warrant. She then calls my dad back who said that he would take care of it. I then called her back and she told me everything was ok and my dad would take care of payment. Well, I did my thing and started my investigation. I searched on the internet for payday loan help and spoke to people who advised me they were prab a scam and to tell my dad not pay them anything. God is so good, it just so happened that they didn't take the card my dad was gonna use for payment and he told them he would call them back. In just enough time I contacted my dad to tell him they were bogus and not to even answer the phone. The ignorant ass girl never called me back and Im assuming cuz I mentioned my attorney. I am currently enrolled in a payday support program to help me pay my bills the right way and I have my attorney on the job. I have proof that I am not ignoring this debt. These people must be reported because they are scandalous. Im waiting for the girl to call me back because now she will be surprised for whats in store.... "She gon learn today"....lol You guys take care and never rush to give anyone any money when you are unsure of who they are, especially when they come off like this idiot did....

I contacted both my sister and brother, and told them to ignore the calls (this is a scam). I was about ready to contact my attorney and have him call them. I haven't received a call since I called on December 5th. In addition, when I called (on the 5th) and gave her the "reference number," she had the wrong name. I've already reported them to my authorities, and the attorney general in my state (used to be my neighbor).

These people called my brother yesterday stating, I was being charged with three counts of fraudulent check activity and this was going to be subjected to criminal action in my county. I had a payday loan. When I called, "Mrs. Jones," stated I took out an internet loan (I did not). I stated, I need your address, you need to send me a debt validation letter within five days. She was arguing with me, then stated, I'll just send out the summons today. I contacted the payday loan company. They don't even have internet loans, were very nice, and gave me a completely different collection agency (who has not contacted me).

Who are these people? They have my brother and sister all shook up.

you need to tell them to file police reports as those calls broke the law,and this is nothing but a scamming bottomfeeding pile of crap.then they need to pay no heed to future calls.you need to realize the fact that they are a scam,and to ignore them.anyway tell your siblings what you found out here and to report and ignore.

My husband got a call yesterday from this so called Landmark and said we owed money and if we didn't pay he would be put in jail for up to 6 months and fined 25,000. My husband asked if he could pay with a money order and send it to the address but they said they only take cc. I looked up landmark online and found all of this so we did not pay anything. They said they are sending the charges to the county now. She then called back and left a message and the funny part is she gave us the attorney's number they are working with and she gave us my husbands cell number! Hahaha
Anyone out there do not give them anything and report as soon as possible!

I received a call from Landmark saying there was a warrant out for my daughter and she was going to be picked up and put in jail. They gave me a case number. They said the warrant could be cancelled if the outstanding debt she owed was paid right away. I was unable to get ahold of my daughter so I called them back and was connected to an extension that answered central booking dept. I finally got ahold of my daughter and she called the police and they said that there was no warrant out on her and this was a scam.

what is it you want?once you found out this place is a bottomfeeding scam what did you do?sorry to say,but anymoney you paid to this pond scum is gone.now you must remember the first rule in dealing with pond scum is that nobody can have you areested for owing a debt period.never just pay that voice without at least a basic letter of collection.other than that i hope you learned something from this.meaning next time a piece of crap calls,and implies jail tell them to drop over,and burn.so to close never just pay a voice on the phone that threatens illegaly as this scam,and most likely the others calling have done.
