Worst collection agency, strongarms public

I have been receiving voice mail messages from this company. On my caller ID is indicates that it's H & P Capital. The phone number is 904-672-1023. At least 3 different individuals have left messages indicating that there is an action pending against me in the city where I live.

The message also indicates that I need to contact them immediately, to provide my "statement."

I have never returned any of their calls. If there is truly an action, why would they call me so many times?

After doing some checking on the internet, I have found out the following information:

This company is a bill collector, not an attorney.

The address is 1919 N. Blanding Bl. # 8 Jacksonville, FL 32210.

The phone numbers I found are 904-387-3187, fax 904-854-9447

Another phone number is 800-201-0565.

I would strongly recommend that you don't answer any calls from this organizaton.

I found a great attorney, and you may want to contact the National Assoc of Consumer Advocates- I am unable to provide the internet address on this site. Just google the name, and I'm sure you'll find it.

I filed a complaint today with the Florida attorney general.

This company is supposedly owned by a man named Ted Ellis Crosby, and he has quite a lengthy legal history with the state of Florida.

he has been fined a lot of money, for committing fraud.

By all means know your consumer rights, and file a complaint. If you ask a bill collector for proof of any "alleged" debt, they must provide that to you. If you tell the collector that you dispute the debt, in writing, they must stop contacting you. They can however, pursue legal action, but I think this company is full of hot air!!

It is illegal for them to misrepresent themselves as attorney, or say that they've filed a legal action, if they haven't. They also can't put you in jail for a debt.

I hope this helps!

• Pros: You have rights to stop them in their tracks
• Cons: That's what they are "cons"

Avoid Legal Mediation Practice - Jacksonville, FL

I received a voicemail from a Darryl Green from this company today at my job. When I called the number back and asked for Darryl Green the person said they would transfer me and put me on hold. The person that answered the phone when I first called WAS Darryl Green because I recognized the voice from the voicemail he left. Right there I knew this was someone trying to pull a fast one. The person who picked up the transfer call was Mr. Davis and started telling me I committed fraud and I owed $1200 dollars which I had to pay immediately or my wages would be garnished and I'd go to jail for fraud. I asked him what he was talking about, what company I supposedly took a loan from and he wouldn't give me that information. I told him that Mr. Green had already committed fraud and I had it recorded on my voicemail as he stated there was something about a case I filed and it was being ruled in my favor; that's why I called back to find out what he was talking about. I told Mr. Davis I needed to see something in writing and he stated I already had it; which I didn't. He stated I should contact my bank because it was already there but I didn't get anything from my bank. I knew this was complete fraud. So I told Mr. Davis to send me something in the mail and that this conversation was over. It felt good to slam the phone down on him. He thinks he can commit fraud and harass people and threaten them when he won't explain what he's talking about.
