Legal Precedents (Decisions) to Use When Fighting Junk Debt Collector Lawsuits

March 31st, 2010. Published under Scams. No Comments.

DISCLAIMER: I’m not an attorney and this isn’t legal advice. It is for informational purposes only. Legal information is not legal advice. ~ Allen Harkleroad I’ve been receiving a lot of email regarding Junk Debt Buy collection lawsuits. In nearly all cases the junk debt buyer seems to be manufacturing documents to use in court, or creating questionable affidavits and filing them. In nearly all cases these affidavits of account or record are hearsay be default. However if it were me I would file a sworn graduated denial with the court ( read my book ), to in effect make all affidavits filed by the junk debt collector heresy. If you do not contest the affidavits or questionable exhibits many times a judge won’t rule on them and by default allow the documents. You must question them all in court so that a judge will exclude or not allow them. Below are several legal precedents (legal decisions) that may cite as objections, and/or motions or briefs that you may in the course of defending yourself in court. Affidavits are often submitted to prove default that are conclusory and insufficient. Manufacturers & Traders Trust Co. v. Medina, 01 C 768, 2001 WL 1558278, 2001 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 20409 (N.D.Ill., Dec. 5, 2001); Cole Taylor Bank v. Corrigan, 230 Ill.App.3d 122, 129, 595 N.E.2d 177, 181-82 (2nd Dist. 1992) (where bank officer’s “affidavit essentially consisted of a summary of unnamed records at the bank,” unaccompanied by records themselves and unsupported by facts establishing basis of officer’s knowledge, foundation was lacking for admission of officer’s opinion regarding amount due on loan); Asset Acceptance Corp. v. Proctor, 156 Ohio App. 3d 60; 804 N.E.2d 975 (2004). Computer-generated bank records or testimony based thereon are often offered without proper foundation, or are summarized without being introduced. Manufacturers & Traders Trust Co. v. Medina, supra; FDIC v. Carabetta, 55 Conn.App. 369, 739 A.2d 301 (1999), leave to appeal denied, 251 Conn. 927; 742 A.2d 362 (1999). A witness cannot “testify” by regurgitating the content of business records that a witness has reviewed when the witness has not seen or heard the events in question. Such regurgitation is hearsay, plain and simple. Wahad v. Federal Bureau of Investigation, 179 F.R.D. 429, 438 (S.D.N.Y 1998); In re McLemore, 2004 Ohio 680, 2004 Ohio App. LEXIS 591, *P9 (Ohio App. 2004); Nebraska v. Ward, 510 N.W.2d 320, 324 (Neb. App. 1993).. “There is no hearsay exception . . . that allows a witness to give hearsay testimony of the content of business records based only upon a review of the records.” Grant v. Forgash, 1995 Ohio App. LEXIS 5900, *13 (Ohio App. 1995). See generally, Trujillo v. Apple Computer, 578 F. Supp. 2d 979 (N.D.Ill. 2008), condemning the inclusion in an affidavit of information supplied by others. A good case (from the debtor’s perspective) involving debt buyer affidavits is Luke v. Unifund CCR Partners, No. 2-06-444-CV, 2007 Tex.App. LEXIS 7096 (2nd Dist. Ft. Worth Aug. 31, 2007). In Unifund CCR Partners v. Cavender, No. 2007-CC-3040, 14 Fla.L. Weekly Supp. 975b (Orange Cty. July 20, 2007), the court held that a debt buyer “assignment” that does not refer to specific accounts does not establish ownership by the plaintiff, nor is testimony based on a computer screen sufficient National Check Bureau v. Ruth, No. 24241, 2009 Ohio 4171 (Ct. App., 9th Dist., Aug. 19, 2009) (document referring to transfer of accounts on Exhibit 1, without Exhibit 1, not sufficient to “prove the assignment”). “Generic” contracts that cannot be identified as pertaining to the specific account sued upon, Velocity Investments, LLC v. Alston, 2-08-746 (2nd Dist., Jan. 15, 2010), supra. Filing a single lawsuit without having in hand the means of proving it is not a violation of the FDCPA (Harvey v. Great Seneca Financial Corp., 453 F.3d 324, 330 (6th Cir. 2006)), but a practice of filing lawsuits with the intent of dismissing them if they are contested may be a violation of the FDCPA (Mello v. Great Seneca Financial Corp., 526 F.Supp.2d 1020 (C.D.Cal. 2007)). Source: Collection Defense February 2010 PDF , this document written by attorney Daniel A. Edelman has a large amount of debt buyer defenses, legal citations and other collection case information including examples of FDCPA violations. Anyone that is fighting debt collectors, especially junk debt buyers should review the document and consider making use of the legal precedents contained in it. For more information on how to fight debt lawsuits yourself (Pro Se) and beating debt collectors, be sure to read my (Allen Harkleroad) book, “ Stick it to Sue Happy Debt Collectors ”.

Direct Marketing Associates Corp Settles FTC Charges; Falsely Told Consumers They Were Pre-Approved for Auto Loans

March 30th, 2010. Published under Business Scams, Fraud, Scams. No Comments.

A marketing company that solicits prospective customers for automobile dealers has agreed to settle Federal Trade Commission charges that it falsely told low-income and “credit-challenged” consumers that they were pre-approved for auto loans and improperly obtained their names from a consumer reporting agency. According to the FTC, the company prepared sales solicitations for automobile dealers telling consumers that a specific finance company would lend them money to buy a car, but the finance companies featured in the ads lacked business licenses and didn’t actually make any loans. The marketing company obtained lists of consumers from a credit reporting agency by falsely representing that the lists would be used to make prescreened firm offers of credit to consumers. The settlement order bars the company and its principal from telling consumers they are pre-approved for, or are likely to receive, an extension of credit or financing unless the defendants know that a lender can make good on the offer for all eligible customers. The order also prohibits the defendants from obtaining credit reports from consumer reporting agencies without a purpose authorized by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The order imposes a $157,000 civil penalty that is suspended based on the defendants’ inability to pay. The full judgment will be imposed if they are found to have misrepresented their financial condition. The defendants are Direct Marketing Associates Corp. and its president and owner, John M. Rainey, Jr. The Commission vote to authorize staff to refer the complaint and proposed stipulated final order to the Department of Justice for filing was 4-0. The documents were filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, Phoenix Division. NOTE: The Commission files a complaint when it has “reason to believe” that the law has been or is being violated, and it appears to the Commission that a proceeding is in the public interest. A complaint is not a finding or ruling that the defendants have actually violated the law. Stipulated court orders are for settlement purposes only and do not necessarily constitute an admission by the defendants of a law violation. Stipulated orders have the full force of law when signed by the judge. The Federal Trade Commission works for consumers to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint in English or Spanish, visit the FTC’s online Complaint Assistant or call 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357). The FTC enters complaints into Consumer Sentinel, a secure, online database available to more than 1,800 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies in the U.S. and abroad. The FTC’s Web site provides free information on a variety of consumer topics .

Loan Pitchman James Nicholson Permanently Banned from Telemarketing

March 30th, 2010. Published under Business Scams, Fraud, Scams. No Comments.

Loan Pitchman Permanently Banned from Telemarketing Consumers Charged Up-Front Fee for Supposed General-Use Credit Card The telemarketing business will be permanently off limits to a deceptive pitchman whom the Federal Trade Commission sued last year for allegedly tricking consumers into paying hundreds of dollars for a credit card that could only be used to buy merchandise from his companies’ Web sites. Under a settlement order with the FTC, pitchman James Nicholson and a group of companies he controls have settled FTC charges related to an advance-fee credit card scam and a bogus advance-fee interest-rate reduction/debt negotiation program, as well as allegations that they debited consumer bank accounts without permission, failed to tell consumers they would not be able to get a refund, and illegally called consumers whose names were on the National Do Not Call Registry. Under the settlement order, Nicholson and his companies will pay more than $200,000. The FTC filed a complaint in 2009 charging Nicholson and several of his businesses with using deceptive telemarketing pitches since 2006 to offer consumers with poor or no credit a general-use credit card in exchange for an up-front fee of as much as $250. Telemarketers working for Nicholson’s chief company, Group One Network, also claimed that consumers would get access to a significant line of credit that could be used for cash advances, and that their payment histories would be reported to the three major credit bureaus. In reality, consumers who paid the fee received an online shopping card they could only use to buy products from Group One’s Web sites, they could not get cash advances, and their credit histories were never reported to the credit bureaus. In April 2009, the FTC filed an amended complaint naming four more companies and adding new allegations relating to the deceptive telemarketing of a bogus advance-fee interest-rate reduction/debt negotiation program by a business operating as Credit First Financial Solutions. The FTC’s amended complaint alleged that Nicholson’s telemarketers, among other things, falsely represented that in exchange for an up-front fee, they could lower consumers’ interest rates by negotiating with consumers’ creditors; would provide consumers a minimum savings of $1,500 to $20,000 within the first 30 days of their enrollment; and would provide a full refund if they failed to achieve the promised savings. The settlement announced today bans Nicholson, a repeat offender who pleaded guilty to wire fraud in connection with fraudulent telemarketing in 1995, from telemarketing and from selling advance-fee loans or credit cards. It also bans him from assisting anyone in telemarketing or marketing such loans. Furthermore, the settlement prohibits Nicholson and his companies from misleading consumers about credit-related goods or services, or any other goods or services they market. Finally, the order imposes a $17.2 million judgment against all the defendants, which has been suspended based on their inability to pay the full amount. However, Nicholson will turn over a 31-foot power boat, his Nissan Pathfinder, and jewelry and art valued at more than $10,000. The other defendants will turn over more than $200,000 in cash and other assets. The settlement resolves the FTC’s charges against: Group One Networks, Inc., doing business as (d/b/a) Credit Line Gold Card, The USA Workers, TheUSAWork.com, and TheUSAWorkers.com; US Gold Line, LLC, d/b/a USGoldLine.com, Gainsway Credit, and GainswayCredit.com; My Online Credit Store, LLC d/b/a MyOnlineCreditStore.com, MYOnlinecr.com, Diamond Executive, NewECredit, and NewECredit.com; James Nicholson, individually and as president of Group One Networks, Inc., and manager of US Gold Line, LLC and My Online Credit Store, LLC; Credit First Financial Solution, LLC; Group One Administrative, Inc.; Tall Pines Administrative Services, LLC; and Sun Coast Data Services, LLC. Brett Fisher, the chief executive officer of Group One Networks, Inc., and manager of US Gold Line, LLC and My Online Credit Store, LLC, settled similar FTC charges in December 2009. He agreed to a court order banning him from selling advance-fee credit cards and from violating the Telemarketing Sales Rule. The order against Fisher also imposed a $17.2 million judgment, which was suspended based on his inability to pay. He has turned over $21,000 in cash to the FTC. The FTC vote authorizing the staff to file stipulated final the order against all the Group One Networks defendants was 4-0. It was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, on March 17, 2010, and entered on March 18, 2010. The FTC complaints amending the original complaint and approving the settlement order against Fisher were both 4-0. The amended complaint was filed in court on April 14, 2009, and the court entered the Fisher order on January 12, 2010. The FTC received invaluable assistance in this matter from the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, the University of Central Florida Police Department, Largo Police Department, and the Better Business Bureau of West Florida, Inc. NOTE: This stipulated final order is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by the defendant of a law violation. A stipulated final order requires approval by the court and has the force of law when signed by the judge. Copies of the stipulated final order are available from the FTC’s Web site at http://www.ftc.gov and from the FTC’s Consumer Response Center, Room 130, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580. The FTC works for the consumer to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot, stop, and avoid them.
