Bureau Of Asset Management Very shifty, unprofessional, usually unlicensed. Don't send them money Anaheim California

I received a phone call from an old friend. He said that this company had contacted him and were trying to serve me a summons in order to sue me for an old hsbc account, almost 7 years old.

I contacted them, and the high pressure tactics started. They informed me that I was going to be sued, and to send them $3900 to stop them. This is on an original debt of less than $800. I told them I would try to arrange something, and the phone calls started coming from them almost hourly. They were adamant that I set up a payment IMMEDIATELY, which made me somewhat suspicious of them. Very stern, threatening and unprofessional. Granted, they are in California, and I am in Ann Arbor, MI. Any more dealings I have with them will be recorded.

I did some research on them, and found out that they had been sued by the AG's of several states for unlawful practices. They buy old debt, and basically set their own number of what should be paid. They also operate under several different names, and change telephone numbers often, essentially to skirt anybody doing research on them. It's not a large operation, and they have no real legal staff.
