Eltman Eltman And Cooper scam artist, corrupt company, stop eltman eltman & cooper! ripoff New York New York
Can anybody give false documents and grab a hold of our accounts, freeze them and our banks just allowed them and brush us off that easily?
Back in college like 8 to 9 years ago i owed a credit card money, about $4,000. I haven't heard of them in years and it wasn't on my credit report, so i assume it was written off, until last year, when a company called Eltman Elman & Cooper contacted me.
A man with the the name Mr. sims kept calling me @ all sorts of hours threatening me saying i have to pay them or else. At one point I got so scare I was going to sent him money by western union but before doing so i had ask him to fax me a statement of all monies owed to them and how much i would have to pay if i agree to anything. he got upset and hung up on me.
Then last week i week to check my acct. and it was frozen. I never got any papers from any court and my bank just let them do it. I tried speaking to this company. That didn't help me. My bank, they were just as useless. How can we stop this scam of a company?

I am in the same position...This happened to me last week. I spoke to a Samantha there, she was extremely rude. I gave her more info regarding my payroll info and work place, which I did stupidly because I thought it would be better to be honest. I am going to sit down with a lawyer next week though and see what he thinks. Let me know what goes on in your situation. As of now, I'm getting my checks mailed instead of deposited directly into the bank.

Katy,
I am sorry to hear that these lowlife stole your money, but you can get it back and also get paid for the damages they have caused you.
If at all possible, for best results you should immediately get a lawyer who specializes in collections matters. The NACA is a good place to start. Take a look at Budhibbs com website for details.
First, from both the courthouse and your bank, get every peice of paper that was filed in this matter. I can guarantee that they had to falsify something to get this done.
When you find out what they falsified to get the garnishment against your account, immediately file a BAR ASSOCIATION complaint against them, as well as an FTC complaint online.
Also notify the court of the fraudulent filing and speak to a prosecutor about filing criminal charges. It is a felony in most states to file false documents with the court.
Any half decent lawyer can get your money back for you, but it will be cheaper if you do all of the legwork, as attorneys get paid by the hour!
Good luck!!
