Is this a legit collection agency? As they have been harassing me since the spring. They have sent court summons in the mail. Then recently sent someone to my house. Now my brother was contacted via phone. Then they called and threatened and harassed me until I gave into them. They will be taking $500 from my debit account on 8/29 & 9/19 for the amount of $250. What is even more odd is this is a "debt" from 2011. At first, on the summons, they claimed I was in debt to Discover Card. Today my brother was told it was a "fraudulent check." After they called to tell me it was a line of credit taken out with Amazon for over $1200. What am I to believe? How am I to go about figuring this all out? Please help!

Hi Sandra, I believe First Asset Recovery Group is a legitimate collection agency. First Asset Recovery Group should not be contacting your brother if First Asset Recovery Group already has your location information. Additionally, sending a court summons in the mail sounds suspicious to me, too. Finally, if you agreed to electronic payments from your debit account, First Asset Recovery Group should have received something signed by you, first. I will call you so we can further discuss your rights on the phone. Thanks, Mike
