Complaint What Happened This problem began back in XXXX XXXX when XXXX XXXX XXXX was collecting for this defaulted/ charged-off XXXX XXXX Account with a balance of {$980.00}. XXXX XXXX XXXX after reviewing my personal income and assets, they determined I was " judgement-proof '' for the foreseeable future. Soon I received harassing calls and letters from the " Law Office of Howard Lee Shriff '' in XXXX, RI. I agreed to pay {$10.00} a month towards the balance as agreed to with their Attorney XXXX XXXX. I have struggle to pay approximately {$220.00} towards the debt but had to stop since my income is not over {$800.00}. a month with many outstanding medical bills that I have to pay. I also have to pay co-payments for my medical coverage and prescriptions. XXXX I stop paying the {$10.00} a month after I notified them by phone, they sent me a false " unsigned '' court document filing a " judgement '' being entered in XXXX District Court in the XXXX Court House. This court date was to take place on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX. To my surprise, the case was never heard or even scheduled. This law firm of Howard Lee Schiff sent me a new letter dated XXXX/XXXX/XXXX claiming to discuss this judgement. It claims it is still owe per the court system. This Law firm of Howard Lee Schiff is using deceptive & illegal purposes to try to collect on a debt that is beyond the statue of limitations. I am going to send a letter to the RI Attorney General 's Office Consumer Protection Department and may consider seeking legal action against this " collection law group '' I have seen many complaints entered on web sites against their shady and unethical ways

Complaint What Happened The debt is owed to XXXX. XXXX did not give us enough time to resolve the debt with them before sending it to a law firm. I am attaching what the law firm sent us due to it not looking like it is filled out correctly. Since I have already filled out the form. I would like to ask about other debt and who I can speak with. I also owed a credit card company approximately XXXX dollars. They took me to court and did I had no idea what I should do. Of course I did nothing and now that XXXX debt is a XXXX lien against my house. How can unsecured credit card debt get a lien against your house.
