The Neville Group Dishonest and Threatening Billing Practices, Ripoff New York, New York
On September 7, 2005 I received multiple letters from The Neville Group saying that I they were collecting debts from a web based company for charges I had reversed almost one year ago. I had reversed those charges because when they appeared on my credit card statement, I did not recognise the name of the billing company nor did I recognise the amounts they were for. I had ordered some things for my wife the same month.
I called the company that I had ordered stuff from and told them what had happened and they confirmed that there was indeed someone in their billing department that was getting credit card numbers and using them. I promptly cancelled that card and received a new one and started the ball rolling on a fraud case should this person be found.
The letter that I received from the Neville Group was very threatening, saying that they were currently researching what property I had that they could take in lieu of payment in 10 days. The letter also stated that they had in fact verified that the charges using from my ISP and CVV2 numbers. I've worked very hard for what I have accumulated in my life and I like to think I'm an honest person so I immediately added up all the charges, wrote a check and put it in the mail that same day.
Now on September 20, 2005 I have received that envelope back from the USPS saying "Return to sender - Attempted - Unable to forward" on it. I'm somewhat concerned because the last thing I want is something like this on my credit report and/or a civil case against me for charges that I attempted to pay.

Micah, Good luck must be smiling on you because The Neville Group did not get your check. If you do a search on the Neville Group on this site you will find that everyone who got a threatening letter from them had once found a fraudulent charge on his/her credit card and had it reversed. The Neville Group is just the same bunch of creeps that stole your credit card info now trying to scam the same victims again. They did not trace you through your ISP; they used the personal information they stole along with your credit card number to find your address. Many of the others who reported receiving letters or calls from the Neville Group indicated that their cards were charged by off-shore enterprises. Russian mob, Nigerian scammers, and Al Quaeda terrorists come to mind. Do not worry about these jerks filing any sort of legal action against you. If they ever set foot in a US courtroom they will be in shackles. Ignore their threats and do not send them any money.
