Boyajian Law Offices ripoff lawyer liars Sent two letters stating that they are collecting a debt to Verizon for $1003.42 Rutherford New Jersey
I received a 2nd letter from this predator to collect $1003.42 from me for a debt to "Verizon". I have NEVER had an account with Verizon. I called Verizon and they verified that they have no account for me - and I owe them nothing. This ripoff boiler-room outfit does not give the details of this debt other than the company and the amount.
A bill collector (which they are just posing as - they are actually criminals, using intimidation to steal money from scared people). Again I HAVE NEVER HAD A VERIZON ACCOUNT !!
I wish I had the time to come to New Jersey and sue them, but they will probably be running to another state soon. Does anybody know who I should report this to?
My main fear is they will put this bogus debt in my credit history, and they may already have.

You want validation, ie, PROOF that this "debt" exists. Guess what? They can't provide what they don't have and they can't prove what doesn't exist. A printout from their database or "we say so" does NOT qualify as "validation." These are some laughably inept people, trying to "collect" so-called bills from the 1990s, when Verizon didn'ty exist until 2000 ( a fact easily verified on Google search). Send them a letter demanding validation and also to cease communication until the "debt" is validated. I seriously doubt if they have put this on your credit report, but you should check any way. I suggest that you also fax the letter to them, as they have been known to "not receive" or refuse certified letters and with a fax confirmation, you have additional documentation.

It's very unlikely

It's highly unlikely that Verizon would use an office of this calibre to collect unpaid account balances. You should contact your states attorney general office and file a complaint. Sometime people don't realize, but this is a tax payer funded office to protect the legal rights of the states citizens. If you do not get satisfaction from the office on your contact, call your governor's public relations office and tell them you will send the info to the largest paper in the state as well as the Associated Press office. When an office takes the money and doesn't perform their duties - it's theft in office. :-) God go with you;

SEND A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER

And in this letter, also demand validation of this "debt"..something with your signature on it, an actual billing froim Verizon (not a printout from Jack (off) Boyajian's database. They can't validate something that doesn't exist. Be sure to tell these goons that any attempt on their part to falsely re-age the debt/report to the CRA as anything other than "disputed" will be met with every legal option available to you. Check your credit report and if they have put this on your credit (not likely, but possible), demand that this be removed if they are unable to provide validation. Do not allow these creeps to intimidate you by phone or by mail. You can send this "cease and desist" to Boyajian Law Offices, P.C. PO Box 4036 Clifton, New Jersey 07012 (B) 800-803-9804 (F) 800-803-9806 (keep your fax confirmation) Jack (off) Boyajian is licensed in California and has been in trouble with several state agencies, including Minnesota, Connecticutt and West Virginia for illegal collection practices (under JBC Legal..do a Google seach for more info). He claims to be a real estate and entertainment attorney as well, but seems to be most accomplished in violating FDCA. I would report this to your state AG, the FTC, as well as the State Bar of California.
