Received a call from 704-612-5237 from a Christoper Dorsey stating that he is w/Garrett and Associates and they are a litigation law firm. He wanted me to set up a payment plan (and, for my convenience, they can post-date a check!) over the phone. I requested a letter of debt validation and certification of the company, which he refused to give me. So, I dug.
Garrett & Associates is a arbitration and mediation firm coming out of Birmingham, Alabama. I contacted their offices @ (205) 313-9153. Karen, who was so awesome and nice, never heard of Christopher Dorsey. I gave her the numbers that Mr. Dorsey was calling from and she, in turn, called them. They then said they were Garrett, Baretta, and Assoc but people call them Garrett & Assoc. Karen said she told them that she is Garrett & Assoc and the woman from the scam co. hung up.
Another WIN for the smart people. :) PS: The call back number they have is 1-888-778-0488.
