ARA Asset Recovery Associates Talk to the right people and ARA will have second thoughts about contacting you ever again Villa Park Illinois

I recently had a very similar experience with ARA, with the calls and the threats of wage garnishments and such from a Bank of America account they claimed was mine. I had an account with BoA 15 years ago at least, this phone call from Tammy Blomberg informed me that I owed $13,350.78, $7000 of which was interest. The account number listed on their email looked as if it were an old credit card number and I never had a credit card with BoA.

They had me believing that I owed this money and I even was stupid enough to give them my debit card number to pay a settled amount of $2600. Afterwards I thought about it, I did research and I called an attorney in my local area by the name of Robert Peters, he in turn contacted a business associate, another attorney in Illinois by the name of Michael Agruss. Michael and I spoke about the harrassment and the threats, he had me consent to retain his services at no charge and I agreed. In one email to A.R.A from Mr. Agruss A.R.A stopped any payments to be taken from my account plus they pulled my information from there system.

There are laws that protect consumers from scams like this from collection agencies, you just have to look for help. In some instances you can have money awarded to you from these collection agencies for violating the collection laws.

Mr. Agruss's toll free number in Illinois is: 888-572-0176.
