They cant do that to you. All they are is a collection agency.  I worked there for almost 2 years and hate how they lie to people to make them pay. thats why I left them. Yes Dave and Kelli its me. They lie to people make you scare and you feel like you have to pay them. They also will take your credit card information and run a payment 2 to 3 days before it is do and will try to get payments on accounts that have been closed. THIS IS ILLEGAL and soon SRS and Associates will be shut down I will make sure of that!!!!! First do not pay anything until you get a copy of your credit report. Then check it make sure you owe this and get a lawyer Do Not Pay Them!!!! or gave them any account numbers. Also you will see on here some comments saying pay them I didnt and now owe alot of money or other smart comments to make them look good. Its them so dont be a fool. One more note they also use fake names like Frank Shapiro or Samantha Green they are fake names. CALL THERE BLUFF if you do call them back ask for Dave or Kelli Grieco the owners or the Manager Michael Grant. They are all liers and bet they will hang up the phone.

I received a call from an agent that was nice in the beginning until she found out I couldnt make a payment today. Her demenor became different, very angry, rude, disrespectful and talked over me. she then said she didnt have any regards to me, after I ask her to stop yelling over me. I wish to receive no more calls from these people. Sadly to say, I was willing to make out agreement or some sort.

These people have been calling my work every day. The first 2 weeks, there had been gentlemen with a Middle Eastern accent of some sort (Indian or Pakistani) asking for me, and actually said it was for a case, WHICH DUH, YOU CAN'T SAY LEGALLY TO A THIRD PARTY (morons). I don't know who these people are. Apparently, its SRS and Associates. . .WHO?! Look them up on BBB, and do your research. Anyway, these people are indeed junk debt buyers, and are notorious for breaking the law and going against consumer rights. They were told numerous times I cannot answer the phone. Today, they called and posed as a law firm, and spoke very professionally, as my secretary told me. His name is JAMES ANDREW S. and he left the phone number 856-691-3636, which is a New Jersey number. . . Wow, it is the same number all of you in this thread are reporting! Thank you 800NOTES! :) The man told my secretary to inform me I need to call back Attorney Epstein.

THIS IS A SCAM. THESE PEOPLE ARE FRAUDS.

There are two known practicing attorney's with the name Epstein, and I could go on giving more information . .but I feel if I give more information the idiot FRANK HIRSCH will catch on if he's smart enough, and try trying something else. I do suggest you call these attorneys personally and inform them their names are being used by SRS and Associates to perform illegal debt collecting practices.

EVERYONE DO THIS:

Report this number and any names you gather through these fools to the FBI as well as your state's Attorney General's Office (AGO) via certified mail. Tell them they are committing fraud and breaking the law as well as harassing you. If you happen to speak with these people again, let them know you reported them to the FBI and the AGO, and give the name of your AGO.

NEVER, EVER ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR GIVE PERSONAL OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

Good luck, and FRANK, get a life!

Sincerely,
Tom

I have been receiving harassing calls for several weeks on my home voice service from SRS. Suggestion to others: Save them and record them on a hand held device. You may need proof for when you sue them under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) look it up.  Each one of the calls say that if i don't call by end of day they will be forced to file suit with the State of NY. File WHAT? I have received nothing via US Postal service regarding this alleged debt. BTW: I DON’T OWE ANY DEBT - When I finally called to find out what the hell this was and to stop this nonsense, i was told they represented a Major Credit Card Co. I stopped them right there and told them, NO! The info was false, they screamed back at me and tried to get me to a settle on a $ amount. Then a 2nd call to them II asked them who they represented and I found out that it was someone different. Not the Credit Card Co. as previously told- but another collections agency. SRS is a 3rd party collections co.  A Real Scam.

Fortunately for me, I have the original letter dated 7 yrs ago from the original Credit Card Co., the original first credit collection agency's letter, and copy of the cashier's check (proof of payment.) But they kept talking over me and didn't want to hear this. Do not agree to anything! DEMAND that they send you the most recent "up-to-date" proof of debt from the original creditor - certified mail/signature required. They must do this by law! Under the federal fair debt collection law, consumers can ask for written verification of debts within 30 days of being contacted by debt collectors. Collection calls and letters must stop until the debt collector provides proof of the debt, but that "proof" is minimal:  the name and address of the original creditor.

Do not just go by a phone call and a "I say so", this is a scam. Don't fall for a just anyone calling with just a little bit of info fished out of your trash and demanding payment without proof.  Then check to see what the Statue of Limitations are in your home state they range anywhere from 3-10 yrs.  DO NOT AGREE TO ANY $ AMOUNT/DO NOT TALK MONEY - this automatically opens up any alleged old debt that you may or may not happen to have. Beware when they put you on hold, they're actually setting up your conversation to be recorded without your knowledge, they must tell ask your permission and tell them this- guarantee they hang up.  You should record your conversations at all times. Never give any additional information, if they ask you for your lawyers name and number – DO NOT GIVE THIS either, you tell them he/she will be in touch with them.

HOPE THIS HELPS - GOOD LUCK
