JHS Marketing BS

received several calls from 888#'s with threats on serving me at my home/work. I have posted in here before but thought I'd give you an update on what's going on. After talking w/ the 888# & them saying they can rectify the situation before me being served & going to court, I asked for a debt validation. It got transferred to a supervisor where he "made me aware that I could get served at any point or can just go ahead and pay" but I req that I have this information in front of me before I pay anything. It then got transferred back to a "Mrs. Gordon" where she took my e-mail address. This is the email I received from them. I will be forwarding to AG, FTC, and BBB. These guys need to get a life.

Received call from Debt collector - JHSMarketing related.
We've also received a notice and call from a debt collector P&R Associates trying to collect on a debt originally with JHS Marketing. We had paid over $1200 to JHS Marketing for a $300 loan and when the State of MA told them they could not do business in MA they sold the debt off to a debt collector, whom were also not licensed to do business in MA. They gave me verbal assurance that they would close this debt and send a "Paid in Full" notice, which we never received. That was back in Oct. 2009. The current debt collector does have a license in MA and is threatening a summons and court. We were instructed by the Attorney General's office and the Banks and Loans Dept to ask both JHS Marketing and the original debt collector for their Corporate license #'s to do business in MA and both refused, because they did not have one.
What happened with your case? Did you get the Attorney General's office involved.
