Same deal, some A$$hole calls and says he is 30 minutes away from my house and he is serving me papers for a court case and gives me my address and tells me "by law I have a right to know what this is about" and then he gives me a number to call and a case number.  So I don't call the number and 10 minutes later some dirt bag calls and says he just heard from the first caller that I don't know what the court case is about, so he is going to transfer me to someone who can help.  So now the original guy gets on the phone, the one who is supposed to be serving me papers in 15 minutes, and says he is in Culver City (300 miles away) and that they bought a 9 year old account and they are trying to collect, which I have no clue what it is or if it is even real.  Idiots!!  They say they are with GDF Financial, but I cant find anything on the net for GDF...  they are just stupid bill collectors grasping for anything possible.

I got a call like this in Sept. from the same number.  Check your credit reports because they are doing hard inquiries and that will cause your credit score to go down.  I was also told that they are GDF Financial but don't think it exists.  The company that pulled my credit is CIF Financial Services coincidentally on the same day that I received the call.  Read up on Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.  These scumbags CANNOT legally sue for a debt that is out of Statute of Limitations, usually 4-6 years after it went into default.

called my wife today same story 10 min out serve papers wont tell whats about at her work said he would get all her boss involved they hang up when i call.cant wait for them to show up then its on

I got the same call from these "people".  GDF Financial Servcices.  They said that they had purchased the debt from some other firm.  Sounds like a pretty bad idea to me since they were claiming that I owed someone some money and then they bought that crap from someone else.  Idiots.  Anyway, It has been about 3 hours now and I am STILL waiting on this guy with my court papers (that do not exist).  Maybe he got a flat tire or something.  He said he would be here in about 30 minutes.  While I was waiting I pulled my annual free credit reports and printed them out.  Nothing on there about the claims the guy had made.  I did see that CIF Financial Services at 2160 Fletcher Pkwy, El Cajon, CA, 92020 ran an inquiry recently.  I wonder if these are the same people that try to scam me through the mail too.  Oh well, if you get a call from these [***] don't sweat it because it looks like a scam to me.  I would not even bother writing down their phone number or the case number because it would be a waste of time unless you plan to sue for harrassment or something.

well i got the same call. This guy called and said he is from GDF financial. Said that he has papers to serve me. I said ok, What is it about? Stated that he will arrive shortly........4 HOURS LATER  NOTHING
