Complaint Review: NAAIB - Independence Ohio

My husband was contacted in mid-July 2007 about a repo that had happened to him back in 1997 by an Investigator by the name of Andy Spears from the Law Offices of Robert Goldstein. Being a collectoer myself I know that any Ohio institution can collect for up to 15 years on old debts. This woman called and was threatening my husband with a Class E Felony for not having paid this in full yet. So, after he gives them permission to talk to me and I did some checking about them online I contacted a Rose Dawson at NAAIB to make arrangements to pay the debt. Over the course of 4 months these people took $2,000.00 out of my account - which is the amount the was suppose to settle this debt. After all of this was done I called and asked for a letter stating that the settlement had been satisifed for my records. The letter never came. I called again and asked to have the letter faxed or e-mailed. They took my information and said that it would be done once approved by another Investigator. Again I never received nothing.

My husband's grandparents receive a phone call from an Investigator David Weinberg looking for my husband and I. Remeber, I gave them all of my information when I talked to them in July - nothing has changed. He told my husband's grandparents that they were issuing a warrant for our arrest and charging us with felony and fraud. A little while later my husband receives the same phone call from this Ivestigator David Weinberg. Once again ,I contact the company and tell them that everything is taken care of and I did not appreciate being threatened. At this point, David Weinberg became extremely irritated with me and told me that he would look into the matter. I also told this David Weinberg that he could not do anything to me because I was never on this loan - I'm just the person who paid it. I told him that I could provide proof of everything that came out of my account. Mr. Weinberg stated he did not want copies of anything as they would not provide him with any information. I called back about 15 minutes later with some contact information that I thought would be helpful and he assured me that everything had been taken care of and the debt was settled. He also said he requested a letter stating that everything was settled to be issued. I didn't exactly trust this man so I called back to the original number (216) 393-0517 to speak with someone about this letter. Again no success.

I received a voicemail from an Investigator Madison Young stating that she is working with the local authorities in regards to issuing a warrant for my arrest and getting a subpoena issued for me to appear in court. She requested a return call at (240) 235-0634 when the call came from (240) 696-1772. When I called back a Melvin Flint answered and would not even let me talk. Once I started talking he hung up on me. By this time I was furious with the whole situation and my husband contacted them back and told them all of the same things I had already. I just had a gut feeling this was a scam. Low and behold we started another search on this company and was flooded with scam reports. I have filed a report with my local authorities and am going to pursue this. I'm willing to help anyone I can.
