Debt collectors sued for $1.3 million
(Most Recent Consumer Letters
Below)
A Jacksonville agency was probed after 130 complaints were
filed. By J. Taylor Rushing, Capital Bureau Chief
TALLAHASSEE - A Jacksonville debt collection agency was sued
for more than $1.3 million Monday by State Attorney General
Bill McCollum on claims the agency was impersonating
attorneys and state officials, threatening arrests and
collecting excessive fees.
The lawsuit was filed in Duval County against Bass
Prelitigation Services Inc.; a related company, Jackson
Phillips & Associates; and the owners of both firms, Frank
and Evelyn Jackson.
It seeks an unknown amount in restitution payments plus $1.3
million in penalties, or $10,000 for each violation of
Florida's Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, plus
dissolution of the companies and a permanent injunction
against future collection businesses.
The Times-Union did not receive a response to two messages
left with company receptionists Monday.
A total of 130 complaints about the company have been
received by the attorney general's Economic Crimes Division
since January 2006, with most coming since October.
Investigators opened a probe in November. McCollum's lawsuit
claims the company knew it was being investigated, yet
continued its "abusive tactics."
"Consumers under financial burdens deserve our protection
and consideration, not the predatory nature of these
allegations," McCollum said in a statement.
According to the lawsuit, those tactics included sending
employees to pose as government investigators; extorting
money from consumers by threatening arrest; claiming and
collecting excessive payments; and abusing or harassing
consumers, such as calling them at work. All are illegal
under state law.
October 2008 After
my son receiving a call from a supposed law firm threatening
him with arrest if he did not pay a loan debt that he never
took out, and cause him a hassle a year ago with his
military bank acct., I stated doing research online. I came
across this site and started reading about this Ted Ellis
Cosby and all his crooked dealings. I recognized a business
name and immediately looked a some paperwork for my son,
from March 2006.
He owed some money to a cash advance business and the matter
had been turned over to a legal firm, and I'm wondering if
it was part of this Cosby joker's dealings. The firm name is
Legal Mediation Practices, 1919-4 Blanding Blvd.,
Jacksonville, FL. Phone number is (800) 201-0565 or
(904)387-3187. The debt was paid via a money gram, attention
Mr. Knight, and the office manager's name was James
Marshall.
This may have been legit, as we did receive a letter from
this firm when the debt was paid, however, I'm still a
little leery, though it's clearly too late.
October 2008 Just
received a voicemail from a "Mike Williams" and "Daniel
White" both with a very thick Indian accent. They both
foolishly stated "a lawsuit has been filed against you, and
you need to call me back today at 800-717-1708, extension
1002."
I can't wait for my "lawsuit" to be served, not just because
I am a lawyer but also because they claim I took out an
online payday loan through "Bahamas Marketing Group" and
there is no paperwork to validate the debt! They couldn't
tell me where the case was filed, but that the complaint was
filed in December 2007 and that I alledgedly owe $786 WITH
LATE FEES AND PENALTIES. These people are clueless.
It's a scam. And all their threats are false and illegal.
ABC News just did a report on this particular scam. Here's
the link to the report:
http://abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=5621205&page=1
This is a very active group of scammers, many of whom are
calling from India (and probably other countries) and are in
cahoots with a group of American pay day loan scammers. They
attempt to extort money from consumers with a myriad of
false and illegal threats, and alternately pose as debt
collectors, federal and state law enforcement officers,
lawyers and bankers. Their trademark is to use meaningless
legalese gobbylgook phrases like "We are downloading
warrants against you" or "We are filing an affidavit against
you." Another trademark phrase is to threaten the consumer
with something like this ridiculous phrase: "If you don't
pay then only God can help you."
Typical of many financial scams of this variety, they
usually demand payment via Western Union or Money Gram or
credit card. They use any number of phony names such as US
National Bank, Federal Investigation Bureau, US Legal
Investigation Bureau, Sonic Bank, Hopkins Law Office, United
Legal Processing, Morgan Associates, United Pay Services,
National Processing, White Collar Crime Unit and many more.
These criminals also use many phone numbers from many area
codes; they're probably using caller-id spoofing software
and/or VoIP to disguise their real location.
The main thing to remember is that anytime someone calls you
demanding money to prevent your arrest, or demanding your
lawyer's name so they can sue you, it is ALWAYS a scam. No
debt collector (let alone criminals posing as debt
collectors) has the authority to have anyone arrested for
anything. (And it's illegal to them to threaten such a
thing.) And since these foreign dirtbags routinely
impersonate law enforcement, it's also important to remember
that American law enforcement officers aren't in the
business of debt collection. (Debt is a civil, not a
criminal, matter.)
The bottom line is, these are criminals trying to steal your
money.
A consumer posting a complaint about these same scammers at
http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-718-831-7157 notes that
718-831-7157 is associated with an India-based "outsourcing"
telephone bank. Though a reverse search on WhitePages.com
shows that 718-831-7157 is an unlisted land line in New York
City, information on Debtbuyers.Com shows that that number
is used by India-based Intellisourze. (Source: http://www.debtbuyers.com/debtbuyers.asp
) My guess is that it's a VoIP phone number.
This is another piece of the puzzle that fits in perfectly
with other information about this scam. There are some
reports on 800Notes that have suggested that the crooks
behind this offshore scam are also the crooks behind the
notorious Bass/Ellis Crosby & Assoc./States Predisposition
scams in Florida and Georgia. The interesting thing is that
the number of complaints on here about the US National
Bank/US Legal Investigation/Federal Investigation scam
skyrocketed *after* April 7, 2008 when Florida obtained a
$1.3 million judgment against Ted Ellis Crosby, shutdown his
operations and barred him from ever conducting debt
collections in Florida (Read http://myfloridalegal.com/newsrel.nsf/newsrel
... 5257424005858A6 ) There's certainly a good chance that
the crooks placing these calls from India are doing so on
behalf of the American crooks behind the Crosby/Bass/States
Predisposition scams.

Though scam calls from these crooks have been going on long
before May 8, the frequency of complaints about these calls
increased considerably after Crosby was shut down in early
April.
This is conjecture, but appearances suggest that Crosby and
company were originally running a two-pronged payday loan
scam operation -- with some calls being made from
Jacksonville, Florida and other calls being made from a
phone bank in India (and possibly other countries); then,
after the Florida Attorney General shut down the Crosby
scams in Florida, the Crosby crooks transferred most of
their scam efforts to the India phone bank.

July 2008 I've been contacted by a company calling itself the Legal Mediation Practice, which I believe is yet another offshoot of this Bass/Ellis Crosby/etc debt collection conglomeration. They call from Jacksonville, FL and use the same illegal tactics to extort people into paying them (usually for payday debts). I've personally been contacted by them where they begin the conversation by telling me I'm being sued and asking what I intend to do.
June 2008 I was contacted by a Jane Spellman
from Spellman Law firm, tel: 888-441-4001, ext. 4024,
regarding "allegations that had been filed in her office
against me regarding 3 payday loans I supposedly had in
2005. She had the last four digits of my social, and she had
the name of my bank from 2005. She said an out of court
settlement in the amount of $1197.50 had been awarded
against me and either I or my defense attorney should
contact them immediately. I told her I do have an attorney,
she said I would have to have them fax her a representation
letter before they can talk to them, I said give me the fax
number, and she said well if you aren't going to take this
seriously we will systemize you today and hung up.
I just happened to be at home today when they called, and I
am sure they also called my work number. They are not
legitimate, I am sure. When will these bottom feeders drop
off the face of the earth? When one gets shut down, it seems
like 5 more open up---they're worse than cockroaches!
June 2008 ULPD - United Legal processing Division INDIA Actually I think this all comes from Ellis Crosby, so add these people to them. You Google their number and it shows a collection agency in India. Says they are downloading your social security number and you are going to be arrested on a debt back in 2005, yet they can never specify what it is. Its Officer so and so from California. Last week he was from New York and the scary thing is they know my social security number. I just don't answer the phone.
India is starting to be a problem - read Bud's take on another agency...
May 2008 Our business recently has had a quite a few calls regarding ‘States Predisposition’ and ‘Bass Enterprise’. After doing some searching online, many of the information links pointed back to your page. Our company (Superior IT Solutions Inc.) is located at 6931 Lillian Road *SUITE 1*, Jacksonville Florida, 32211. We are an Information Technology company. We are neither of these two companies, yet we are getting nasty phone calls because someone didn’t post the correct information. A phone lookup by address (Without using a suite number) pulls up OUR phone number. This company was located in Suite 2. They since have moved out.

April 2008 State Predisposition Office of GA That stupid phrase "person of
interest" is always a giveaway as to the identity of this
scam; the crooks from States Predisposition/Bass Pre
Litigation say that in many of their phoned attempts to
extort money from their victims. The "person of interest"
phrase is often used by law enforcement authorities to
describe someone they want to talk to regarding a criminal
investigation. Of course, the people calling you and your
husband are attempting to imply that they are law
enforcement officers; don't fall for this scam.
This is a group of crooks that was originally based in
Florida and, after the Florida attorney general filed a $1.4
million lawsuit against them, they set-up shop in Georgia
using the name States Predisposition. Like many crooks, they
go by various names: Bass Enterprises/Bass
Pre-Litigation/United Legal Investigations Bureau/United
Federal Bank/Impact Business Marketing/Ellis Crosby &
Associates/States Predisposition Services/Jackson Phillips &
Associates/Kirby & Associates and many others. And they
often are calling about supposed PayDay loans.
Though their aliases vary, their method never does.
Masquerading as bankers, attorneys, police or other
government officials, these crooks call consumers and
attempt to extort money with a myriad of illegal false
threats. These threats are always phony and include
arresting you, ruining your credit rating, serving you
"papers" for a lawsuit and, yes, taking your children away
from you. In one recent phone call to a consumer, these
crooks even pretended to be on a walkie talkie coordinating
a police raid of the consumer's home. Granted, this stuff is
laughably ridiculous, but, sadly, some people fall for it.
Fortunately, law enforcement authorities and the press have
taken notice of these scammers. Check out this excerpt from
a recent article in the Florida Times-Union newspaper, and
note the last sentence:
"Among the most prominent complaints: Claiming or implying
to be attorneys or government agents, threatening arrest or
legal action, claiming or collecting exorbitant debt amounts
and using harassing or intimidation techniques such as
repeated phone calls or calls to a debtor's place of work.
In July, Attorney General Bill McCollum's office filed a
$1.3 million lawsuit against the firm - also known as
Jackson Phillips & Associates - and earlier this week ,
state attorneys won the first round of the battle in a
Jacksonville courtroom by defeating the agency's motion to
dismiss the case. A motion to shut down the firm while the
case proceeds will be heard in January. The state is also
working with Georgia officials to determine whether Bass is
trying to escape Florida prosecution by moving across the
state line to Folkston, Ga. Records at Folkston City Hall
show that a business license was issued in June to Bass
officials Frank and Evelyn Jackson to establish a collection
agency called States Predisposition Services Inc."

surprisingly, is the same address as Bass Enterprises a.k.a.

You should report these crooks to all the following federal
and state law enforcement agencies (you can do most of these
online):
1) File a report with your local police
2) File a report online with the FBI at https://tips.fbi.gov
3) File a report with Sid Barrett, Senior Assistant Georgia
Attorney General at sid.barrett@law.state.ga.us or
404-656-3202
4) File a report to Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum
at http://myfloridalegal.com/contact.nsf/contact?Open&Section=Attorney_General
and be sure to let them know that it regards the scammers at
Bass Pre-Litigation/Jackson Phillips/States Predisposition
5) File a complaint with your state's attorney general. The
contact information for each state's attorney general is
listed at www.naag.org Just scroll down to the national map
and click on your state.
6) File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission here:
https://rn.ftc.gov/pls/dod/wsolcq$.startup? Z_ORG_CODE=PU01
If these crooks call you again, be sure not to tell them
anything other than that you've already reported them to
federal and state authorities and not to call again. After
telling them that, I'm sure they'll huff and puff and make
more ridiculous threats; if they do, report them to law
enforcement again and take consolation in the fact that you
rattled their cage. :)
In addition to reporting these grifters to law enforcement,
you also have the option of suing them. For more information

Finally, these scammers have a long history of threatening
people with arrest and worse. Remember: if someone calls you
and demands money to prevent you from being arrested, it is
ALWAYS a scam.
2007 I just want to know if "white collars" is AKA Bass and Associates/ and several names. I received a call last Friday 10/12/07 at work from a woman who was talking so fast. She said she was from the company "white collars"? She wouldn't go into detail of her phone call only just to ask for my attorney contact information. She told me I was a prime suspect in my county and I was going to be downloaded this afternoon. I said I could have my attorney call her back and she hesitated and said "this was an outbound line" whatever that mean and couldn't give out the number. I hung up on her!
2007 I was contacted by this company at work about a pdl that I did back in 2006. She was rude and threaten me and said that if I did not pay $897 that day that my file was going to downloaded in the system and someone would be coming to my place of employment to arrest me. I was terrified and had to leave work and go home, call my son and beg for the money. I could only come up with $500 and I called her back and told her that I could pay the rest in 2 weeks. She acted as though she had to consult with US National Bank to see what they said. She called me back and said that would be fine. I ended up sending the full amount of $897 and she finally faxed over a document saying that I was paid in full but it did not look legitimate and had no signature and no return fax number. I wish I would of known about this website before because I paid $897 for a $275 loan. Also, 2 weeks later I received a call at work for US National Bank saying that I owe them $1325. They told me about Bass and to look on the internet and I woudl see what they're all about. That's how I found all of this. I don't think they are legitimate either. I was so stupid to fall for their scam. I almost suffered a nervous breakdown over this.
2007 I just received a call on June 8th from Bass and Associates. They were calling on a balance on a pay day loan. I told them I had been trying to get in touch with this loan company but I never received a response. The lady I spoke with would not give me the name of the loan company they were collecting on. I should not have made a payment until I got the name but she started with the threats. The initial loan was for $300 and now they are wanting me to pay $763. They said this was for court fees, etc. I told them I did not have that amount of money at the time and could I just pay part of it and then pay the balance later. They made it sound like they were a law firm and said if I did not have the full amount paid by 4 pm I will be charged for theft. Of course I freak out because I have never been in trouble with the law and I don't want to have charges put against me. I have a husband and two little children at home. I did pay them the $300 via a moneygram. I have yet to send the balance and I am glad that I have not since I was told about this site. I have contacted a lawyer to see what I should do. How can someone be allowed to do this and for this long? How can a person and the people that work with them live with themselves. I have to collect money on past due accounts and I could never use the tactics these people have used and live with myself. Thanks for keeping people in the loop of the scum bags in the world.
2007 They have called my work and told them I was busted and going to be arrested. I have since asked them not to call and have contacted the Maryland Attorney General as well as the Florida Attorney General for assistance

Jacksonville is a good place to be
past due It leads in the investigation of bad
debt-collection practices.
By David Bauerlein, The Times-Union
Jacksonville isn't home to the biggest number of debt
collection agencies among Florida cities. But it leads in
investigations into unfair or unlawful practices.
Since 2004, the Attorney General's Office has opened three
investigations of Jacksonville-based businesses. In the most
far-reaching case, the state this year won a final judgment
against Ellis Crosby & Associates on accusations the company
threatened consumers with arrest if they didn't pay overdue
loans.
While the state pursued that judgment, the company's
president, Ted Ellis Crosby, 28, is serving time in the
Duval County jail on a possession of a handgun by a felon
charge.
Tom Stephens, president of the Better Business Bureau of
Northeast Florida, said complaints about debt collectors
dipped in 2006 while the state cracked down on Ellis Crosby
& Associates.
But this year, complaints have shot back to the top of the
bureau's list.
"Most companies are doing a good job, but there are a
handful of bad apples," said state Sen. Victor Crist,
R-Tampa.
Crist has tried to win approval of legislation that would
give more power to the state Office of Financial Regulation
in investigating complaints about debt collectors, and add
requirements for businesses to get state registration. He
said he intends push again for the bill, possibly in the
2008 session.
Complaints in part are the "nature of the beast" for
collection companies, which often deal with irate consumers,
Stephens said. He said the worst complaints about
heavy-handed tactics stem from collection agencies that
aggressively try to collect payday loans.
Consumers should understand that under federal and state
laws, they can't be arrested for failing to pay their debts,
Stephens said.
"The debt collector cannot throw them in jail," Stephens
said. "He cannot have local law enforcement come out to
arrest them. It's a civil matter, not a criminal matter. It
could end up in court, but it's civil court, not criminal
court."
Debt collection is big business, and Jacksonville has its
share of collection agencies. According to the Office of
Financial Regulation, 40 businesses whose primary address is
in Duval County are registered to collect debts in Florida.
That's 9 percent of the 428 collection agencies based in
Florida.
A spokeswoman for the attorney general and Andy Grosmaire,
an administrator for the Office of Financial Regulation,
said it's just coincidence all the recent investigations of
Florida-based agencies have been in Jacksonville.
But the state's lawsuit against Ellis Crosby & Associates
does contend a link between Ted Ellis Crosby and Bass
Prelitigation, the latest subject of an investigation. In a
motion filed in November, the state contended Crosby was
involved in debt collection by using "aliases, fronts of
strawman operations such as Bass Prelitigation."
Broward County resident Joanna Cook made a similar
allegation in a lawsuit she filed in February against Bass
Prelitigation.
Cook contended former employees of Ellis Crosby & Associates
formed Bass Prelitigation last year and worked with Ted
Ellis Crosby to develop a business plan for the company. Her
lawsuit contends Bass Prelitigation was organized to
sidestep the attorney general's lawsuit against Ellis
Crosby.
Cook's lawsuit said an employee of Bass Prelitigation called
and said she faced immediate arrest if she didn't pay $999
that same day by MoneyGram for a payday loan. She said she
became frantic because she feared being separated from her
two children, including a newborn.
David Jacobs, office manager for Bass Prelitigation,
declined to comment on the specific allegations and the
attorney general's legal filings. But he said Bass
Prelitigation does not threaten consumers with arrest or
have any association with Ted Ellis Crosby.
"I will tell you, categorically, we have no connection with
him whatsoever," Jacobs said. He said Ellis Crosby &
Associates put a "horrible stigma" on debt collectors and
"is an example of what not to do." He said Bass
Prelitigation will be installing a telephone recording
system so it will have records of what employees say in
their calls.
Ellis Crosby & Associates was founded in 2003, four years
after Ted Ellis Crosby was court-martialed by the Navy in
Jacksonville, according to court documents.
At its peak, the business was collecting debts from
thousands of customers across the nation, but in a 14-month
period, 120 complaints were filed with the Better Business
Bureau.
The attorney general won a final default judgment in
February that bans Ellis Crosby & Associates and Ted Ellis
Crosby from engaging in any kind of debt collection in
Florida.
Meanwhile, the State Attorney's Office prosecuted Crosby on
two counts of possessing a handgun by a felon, based on his
conviction by the Navy court on LSD distribution charges.
Crosby stood trial in April on the gun charges. The jury
acquitted Crosby in a January 2006 incident when he fired a
handgun at an armed robber in a parking lot outside his
Southside Boulevard business. But the jury convicted Crosby
on a charge of possessing a handgun during a 2006 traffic
stop.
Circuit Judge Russell Healey sentenced Crosby to six months
in jail and added a special provision to his probation -
Crosby cannot work in any way in the debt collection field.
"It makes it a bigger hammer hanging over his head not to do
it," said Assistant State Attorney Adam Urra.
2007 This is to the person who commented below. File a complaint immediately with the Florida Attorney Generals Office and also the Attorney General of your state. Bass and Associates will be forced to repay you what is legally and rightfully yours. Each state has laws limiting what you must pay, and you have been violated more than once. Also, the threats of arrest are illegal. Get that complaint in right now. http://anthonylemons.blogspot.com
2007
My run in with Bass and Associates
is exactly the same as everyone else's. I didn't know then
what I know now. I took out a few payday loans in October
and was paying on them fine until they began taking multiple
unauthorized debits from my checking account. It ended up
over drafting me by $2,000 which I could not pay. My bank
closed my account and two weeks later I got a call from Bass
and Assc. They told me that the bank would settle with me if
I paid Bass $656.00. this was on a friday evening and they
gave me until Monday to come up with the money. Thinking it
was legit, I paid the monies since I didn't want to get into
trouble with the banks.
Two weeks later I got the infamous Bass phone call regarding
a payday loan I had taken out and now could not pay properly
because of my bank account issue and the exhorbant amount of
money I had just paid setting me back with the rest of my
bills. They called me on a Wednesday afternoon at 3:00pm and
told me I had until 7:00pm to pay them over $600.00. They
asked me if I had ever been on probation before and told me
that I was committing fraud which is a felony and I would be
"located" for prosecution if I did not pay at 7:00pm and
would not take any alternatives from me to arrange payments.
2007 I have infuriately experienced the wrath of Bass & Associates for over a year now. The first few calls I received were from people I could not understand they both had a heavy Arabic ancient and they proceeded to tell me I was being charged with 4 different counts of fraud and they have total proof of when I received the money from these different companies I allegedly still owe money. I recently contacted the Tele Track which I was told is the company that they report to if the loans are not paid and there was 3 different companies listed and they where contacted and all 3 where paid. I also filed a complaint with my state attorney general office in Michigan and received a response back along with the response from Bass and Associates and they basically told my attorney general's office that I was a liar and they turned the files back over to there clients and informed each one of them what my position was?? They also stated upon receipt of every file they mail out a detailed correspondence prior to contacting the consumer but I never ever received anything in the mail. This company is nothing but a scam and I will not send them a flipping penny until I receive notice or a summons to appear in court. I hope this has helped someone out and that eventually they all will be thrown in jail and made an example of I am sick and tired of worrying about being put in jail and about them threatening me all the time!!
2007 Bass and Associates is an agency which utilizes illegal threats of arrest, and accusations of white collar crimes. If you receive a call from this agency, record the call if at all possible. The mailing address for this company leads to a UPS store in Jacksonville, Florida. The Attorney Generals office of Florida is actively investigating this agency. The latest 'Boss' of this company is a David Jacobs. Their phone number is 877-281-2220. His cell phone number is: 904-982-0091. My site covering this agency is at: http://anthonylemons.blogspot.com Wake up U.S.
2007 Ellis Crosby & assoc. is now using the name of Anthony Galloway, also Taylor, James & associates...They are at it again under different names, same old illegal tactics.
