Consumer Complaint: I found out from a District Court notice that an attorney XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, MD XXXX is Suing me for Debt allegedly belong to a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.
XXXX TX XXXX. Apparently this XXXX XXXX XXXX acquired this Debt from XXXX XXXX where I had a auto Loan from in XXXX. I had recieved one notice from this XXXX XXXX company earlier in XXXX. I had tried to call them with the Phone numbers provided and they are not valid numbers. I tried to email them from their website and recieved no response. As of this complaint filing I have had no contact with XXXX XXXX. I assumed it was a scam so I just kind of let it go until I was served a Summons for a lawsuit. I have contacted the Attorney above about this Debt allegedly now owned by XXXX, They are Trying to have a Judgement placed on me for XXXX XXXX which is allegedly owed. I have ask the Attorney for the contact information for XXXX and they gave me the same numbers that I already had and tried and are not valid. I ask them how they contact this XXXX XXXX management and they Replied that they never spoke with anyone, only email. all this has happened in the past couple weeks. I last tried to contact XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and I did talk to their attorney on XX/XX/XXXX and could not resolve anything.
after further looking into XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I found out that just recently that the company was shut down by the Securities and Exchange Commission for fraud and that the president XXXX XXXX XXXX and others that owned collection company ‘s under various name where charged and being investigated. Also the Company has many XXXX Complaints like mine. I believe that I am a victim of unfair collection practices and that I could not verify this debt with this company or even have ample time to resolve this Debt in any way shape or form. I have a court date of XX/XX/XXXX where the attorney above is asking for a judgement. I do not believe this debt is owed this company and at the least because I had no way of contacting this company that any judgement for this company should be granted. I only recieve SSI and I will never hold a regular job again due to my XXXX, and without being able to even contact this Company this is causing undue Stress. Again as of XX/XX/XXXX I still have had no contact with this company to try to resolve anything as the contact information is invalid
