Debt collection I do not know

Complaint #1638785 submitted on 11/04/2015 relating to Machol & Johannes, LLC. Complaint relates to Debt collection I do not know - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Wednesday 4th November 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

For approximately the last year, the law firm of Machol & Johannes , LLC has been repeatedly contacting myself and my parents in an attempt to collect a debt that I do not recognize. Per the office, their client obtained a judgment against me in 2010 ; however, neither myself nor anyone at my place of residence was ever served with any paperwork to notify me that I needed to appear in court.

Each time the law firm calls, I ask them what the debt is for. On several occasions they have stated it was a credit card for several XXXX dollars. I have never had a credit card with a limit higher than {$1000.00}, if I remember correctly the highest limit I have ever had is {$750.00}.

I offered to discuss payment options if the firm provided me proof of service and verification of debt. I have requested XXXX these items multiple times and the woman I speak with, XXXX XXXX, refuses to provide me any additional information. She has raised her voice at me, hung up on me during our conversations, and not returned my calls when I request additional information.

If this is a debt that I do owe I am willing to attempt to make payment arrangements ; however, I am not going to blindly send in money to a law firm without any documentation evidencing where the original debt was originated, details of the dollar amount that I owe, and proof that I was served paperwork and given the opportunity to appear in court as I was never made aware that there was the possibility of a judgment being entered against me.
