Debt collection Credit card

Complaint #1650844 submitted on 11/11/2015 relating to Weltman, Weinberg & Reis. Complaint relates to Debt collection Credit card - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 11th November 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

I received a debt collection letter on XXXX XXXX from a debt collector by the name of Weltman , Weinberg & Reis claiming the I owed {$8000.00}. I sent this debt collector a certified validation letter on XXXX XXXX, however I was also served with a summon and complaint from this collector of which I answer the summons denying all claims of owning this debt. This debt collector ignored and refused to give me solid proof that this debt was mine. They continued to collect on this debt by filing a motion for a default judgement. I received a letter from the courts stating that the motion for a default judgement for the plaintiff was denied and that the matter was dismissed without prejudice. I did not hear anymore concerning this matter until a week ago when my wages was garnished resulting from this debt. This debt collector never validated this debt, they ignored my validation letter, and continued to aggressively pursue a debt that was not validated, and I feel this was a deliberate violation of the fair credit debt collection act. I am filing this complaint because they have violated the fair credit debt collection act with their false credit schemes.
