Fraudulent Judgements

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
They filed a judgment against me for a claim. I told them didn't belong to me. It's a fraudulent debt. I've made several attempts to contact them and no one is responding!

IF they have a judgment, they sued you. Did you bother to show up?

If not, they were awarded a default judgment and can garnish your wages.

You're up the creek mate but as a warning to others, do not waste time trying to "contact" someone, show up. If you're not paying your bills, blocking calls, changing numbers, moving, or telling people not to contact you again, you should go online every week to be certain you aren't being sued.

There trying to collect a debt from 97 in which the firm bought debts from Providian Bank a visa and claims I owe over 7K on it. Were talking 22 yrs ago the sharks already levied my checking accts 3x and took 700$ they are relentless to get money unethically. Their strategy is to send certified mail of the subpoena for civil court so if you don't get it they win the judgement automatically by default. Most cases are won by them through this same method not to mention the firm has a relative on the civil court division in Bergen county related to the lawyers. So on 3/15/96 I filed bankruptcy in Newark NJ and was granted a chapter 7 status when i proved hardship and owed 30K in credit cards so what creditor in less then a year later after declaring bankruptcy is gonna give me massive amount of credit in which they claim. The card was for 500$ visa they had mailed me and i exhausted it so when Pressler bought this debt how did $7000 get tacked on it and never was told to me but 22 yrs later am I paying 6500$ interest apparently illegal and not made aware of it and besides they cant show me charges of this amount in which I requested but according to my lawyer they don't have to prove it once they win the default judgement. Scammers and extortionists its beyond my comprehension how the firm still has a license to practice in NJ with all these complaints and the government doesn't investigate them and don't take action against these con artists!!!!

Bank levy

I accrued $5000 in debt in 07-08 abd Pressler and Pressler have hunted me since.they finally got a bank levy and my paycheck got my account and they took the whole thing . I charged via my credit card the amount they froze in order to get my cash.i agreed to a payment schedule and before the first payment I had a financial crisis ask instead of the $200 they demanded I paid $10 a payday.they sent threatening letters and calls.well today was payday and luckily I pulled all my money save the amount I need in there for bills and I just discovered they grabbed my account again.so the bills I tried to pay today will back up.I'm trying to pay them when I can and is never enough for them.they need to be stopped!!!!

They contacted the courts in NJ and are suing me for 500$

I received a letter stating that I'm being sued by Pressler et al for a credit card debt of about 500.00$ It came from the Superior Court of NJ...is it normal to be sued for such a small amount?

they harassed me for years but when I asked for documentation that these were my accounts and my signature to open the said account over 12 years ago..never got that info and so just stopped paying. My husband passed away almost 11 years ago and if he used my name but he signed for it I wanted to see that but was never provided that info.

I have also been subject to a wage garnishment from each paycheck of $160 for close to $2000 judgement. I have no idea what this is for and that is a lot out of every paycheck and I only get paid 2x a month. they are *** waiting to call the court and figure out why this garnishment is on. we are the lowest paid and get this *** taken from us without knowledge or being able to dispute it. they some how find a way to get money from us and its legal. personally I think this is wrong and there is really nothing we can do about it.

I as well have been sued by Pressler & Pressler. Unfortunately it is a debt I owe.

At first they we're insisting I pay them $100.00 a month. It took about four months of paying them $25 to $50 a month for them to agree on a payment of $50 a month. The first month I mailed my $50 money order along with the signed contract. Conviently they didn't receive the money order and assist the list office lost it, when though it was mailed n the same envelope.

My "judgment" is in the amount of $1403 and change. I've finally received a statement showing my last payment of $50 and now says my balance is $1354 and change. They are charging me .25% interest and a new charge of $43 and change as additional charges. No where did I sign and agree to additional charges.

Its the weekend so I have to wait until Monday to call them to explain these charges.

I will then followup with phone calls to other attornies to see if this is legal. At this rate I will never pay them off

this site has info about their bold fraud which is aided and abetted by NJ Attorney General, NY Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, NJ GovChris Christie and Manhattan DA Cy Vance and Michael Gordon: www.presslerclub.com and

http://tamra.nyc/2014/10/21/pressler-proof-of-ownership-ruling/ -- also see related links at bottom of article.

Sheldon Pressler is filing lawsuits on his own behalf including for accounts never lawfully owned. this is one of the largest, unprecedented frauds in history.

see documents on last above link which shows Sheldon establishing New Century Financial Services in his own name. This is unlawful.

For Attorney's, I hope they take a refresher course on collections

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
P&P are mass debt collectors, you can tell this by the volume of claims they send out and use a canned response/collection tactics. Case in point. I received a collection letter from them, it was not my debt. It was my mothers, she died two years ago. It was for some random hospital bill. Well, according to law, one.: the estate was administered and closed, probate court confirms, two collections are time barred on probate estates to 9 months. Two years latter, sorry guys but there's no money left in the estate, and even if there was I would not be allowed to give it out anyway. Good luck trying to explain law to lawyers... They even asked if my died mother had an active checking account... Come on guys pay attention to what people tell you. I think its comical. They have 20 year old's acting like attorneys trying to scare people into paying debts that are not theirs. I guess im not too scared of them as im a third year law student.

They put a Civil suit warrant out on me for a bill that was $493.00 for an MRI that was for a torn tendon caused by J&J Pharmaceutical company. Fluoroquinolone Antibiotics are POISON, Levequin caused me severe debilitating injuries, tendon tears, Perihipial neuropathy, Heart valve damage among at least twenty other things.

This happened in 2007 and is still happening, go after J & J they caused the injury, and are still harming and poisoning people without their knowledge or consent. I wound up in the ER when I opened that letter saying I had a warrant for my Arrest !!! Chest pains instantly, I paid them $100.00 living on Disabilty that is a lot of money for me, if I don't pay them off fast they want my banking information, Drivers license Number mortgage Companies name and how much I owe ? This is ludicrous, especially the MRI place I went to actually was giving me discounts because each time I went they were paid $5600.00 The $493.

was from what I can see a bill that was lost its from 2008,Eight Years ago, even though the harassment started in 2014 still Five years, going through so much for a medical Bill, NJ had Laws against this previously, I need to call Trenton and find out if this is even legal.

They need to find out how the ER was able to charge over Ten Thousand Dollars for the Visit I had when they caused me chest pains ? The same ER cost $1400.00 a few months before, no wonder the Country is going broke, good luck to all.

Pressler and Pressler - Debt Collection Review from Owings Mills, Maryland

It is about the time someone stand up against Pressler and Pressler but the problem is the only people that they choose to suit is poor people that live pay check to pay check and even that they want to take away. Moreover, it that even make sense to enrich the corporations like credit cards bank affiliates who get six times the amount of monies that the applicant or card holder is getting approve? Yes the credit cards companies recieve six times the amount of money that you the consumer spend in that card. So the interest paid since you aquired the account is 100% earnings because they have been paid six times for that same account. However, attorney's like pressler and Pressler are scavingers or voulchers and not true collectors because collectors collect legitimate debts and not scams perpetrated by fraud and misleadings practices of credit cards services.

I made a payment plan for what I actually owed. Im on a fixed income & by law I don't have to pay. I wanted to do the right thing and agreed to a plan & missed a payment while I was in the hospital. They sent me letter that agreement broken & I received it a few days after my hospitalization. No questions & just to call to make a new arrangement & that they will continue their collection efforts. They claim that I owe more than 4 times what I really owe & I now am beyond angry at these bloodsucking moneyhungry jerks!

Hey take money that wasnt suppose to be taken

They took my bank account and it was not my bill & I proved this, they were ordered to put it back but not before it put me behind in my bills..I was out of work and this was all the money I had. If I find the right consumer rights attorney,I should be able to sue for them doing this. I went a month with a frozen bank acct and NO FUNDS. They need to be stopped!!! I hope to *** that they are LEGALLY & PERMANENTLY driven out of business,become sued & bankrupt!!! MAY THEY ROT IN ***!!

they did the same thing to me, this is very very annoying, I was mid led, in 2003, I wanted to fix my credit so I agreed when what I thought was the credit card company asking me to pay off this bill in a payment arrangement they said they were some financial company mind you the credit card was from the early 90s and the statute of limitations is 7 years and you don't have to pay it off in NJ, I didn't know that and the credit limit at the time was like 300 dollars, long story short, after I finished paying off the 1,100 dollar bill, 4 to 5 years later they called me again and now they are trying to railroad me into paying on something I cosigned for which was a vehicle that the person it belonged got it repossessed in 2000, which this is 17 years later they levied my account and my husbands account when I tried to get this fixed they wanted proof I sent them 3months worth of transactions in that account and my husband gets direct deposit everything they asked for I sent, now here's the bull----, they wanted to know where 200 dollars and a 41 dollar deposit came from, the 200 dollars was a deposit to pay a bill and the 41 dollars was to pay an overdraft. If he deposited cash how can I get proof showing that he deposited the cash.

they said to me we need proof, for all we know it could be your money. I said its not my money I have my own account all I had in my account when they levied it was 94 dollars, and I said why would i give him 200 dollars and 41 dollars to put in his account when I could have put it in my own account. Hello every time I called I spoke to someone different and they all kept asking me the same thing over and over, my blood boiled i have High Blood Pressure and i swear I was so livid, now I'm getting a lawyer to represent me on this matter they are crooks, when they thought I had a lawyer they was spooked the paralegal *** said do you have me on speaker, I heard someone talking in the background, then he hung up on me when I called right back they said he wasn't available, That said SCAM to me.

all the extensions they give you when you dial they transfer you to someone else so it's all bull. i will see them in court.

I will NEVER EVER have a bank account again because of these thieves.I had a joint account and they did this I didnt know at the time but if I could have proven that the money was put in by the other account holder I could have least got half of the money back.Please be very careful of having anything in your name.I would advise against it,they will try to destroy you and they wont stop!!!!

House Lien Review

They put a lien on my house after we had already started paying them back according to our repayment arrangement. They had told me they were not going to do this. Clearly they lied.
