I just received a phone call from Hamilton Jacobs saying that I owe them $1100 and if I didn’t pay this amount that Wachovia/Wells Fargo would put this amount on my credit reports, file a litigation case against me, contact chex systems so I won’t be able to open up any further bank accounts and also freeze my current bank accounts. Since I just got my credit report in good standing and bought a home, I almost fell for it. I almost paid the settlement offer of $600. They claimed they had been sending me documentation since 2007 at an old address and at my current address for the past four years. I asked her to send me documentation and the only thing she could send me (via email) was a letter with that amount. I asked her what transactions were suppose to be on the account. She went on to tell me, but couldn’t provide proof. Why should I pay for something that I don’t even I owe. Then I asked her when was the account opened. She said 2010. Then that’s when things got fishy. How can you have been sending me letters since 2007 at an old address if I opened up the account in 2010. We both were going back and forth…she was starting to piss me off and she started coming back with a rude attitude. I told her I need to contact Wells Fargo and she said they weren’t going to give me any info. After going back and forth and round and round, we weren’t getting anywhere. After I got off the phone, I looked them up and boy am I glad I didn’t succumb to paying that money. All of these reviews I’m reading about this place is a SCAM! Boy did I dodge that bullet.
I was contacted on Sept 3, 2020 from Hamilton Jacobs about a debt owed to wachovia from 10 years ago. The information they had for me was exactly 100% correct so I went on to resolve this issue to prevent any further headaches with my credit or banking abilities. I did not do my research first before returning their call as I should have. Once I did my research on the company after speaking with them, I found that it was a scam and I call my bank and closed the account that I had initially set up with them to resolve this balance so I would not lose my money. They reached out to me again today and left a message. This time I did not answer the call nor will I be returning their call. They are very good at what they do so my recommendation to others is be very careful.
Harassment from them for months. [censored] that scam
This company is 100% a scam do not give them your money! They have detailed information SSN, account information etc but this company is a farce. Check your credit karma and validate with the bank in question… we got scammed $520. They have you sign a legal document with a 3rd party so legally you have obligation with them but do your homework like we should have! What these people are doing is absolutely disgusting taking advantage of people with detailed personal information so it seems really legitimate… but please be aware it isnât! They work with a 3rd party company Myriad Capitol who you sign a document with saying they are a 3rd party and you pay them with with Your account and routing numbers. The man I spoke with Jonathan West is a personable and well spoken man who is good at his scam. Please look into your credit Karma report and follow up with your bank… I should have ahead of time and paid for it. Research their âlaw firmâ Itâs fake no business front But a shady street on google. Their website has no links to click through all comes up 404 page not found… it is a fraud.
Do not answer the phone and when you hear their voicemail do not call back!
Got a call on Friday in regards to my old wachovia account. I remember having the account however didn’t think the balance was so high. I tried to negotiate the matter and ended up settling for a 20% reduction – at least it isn’t on my credit report
It never was on your credit report. Do your homework!
I am sure you are someone that works for this âcompanyâ trying to cover up the fact that it is a fraud…you guys should be ashamed of yourselves, so disgusting!
I got a phone call from Jennifer Campbell at Hamilton and Jacobs. She claims I owe Wachovia $1100 from an account I had with them in 2005! She said if I didnât âmake restitutionâ than they were going to press charges against me for fraud, report to the credit bureaus and Chex systems and freeze any existing account. I said, fraud? How did I commit a fraud? She said because I let the account go into a negative balance. I said well half the country would be in jail if thatâs the case! I asked her to email me the date the account was opened, the date of the last activity on the account and the date it was closed as well as the info for the original owner of this âdebtâ and the amount. I am far from stupid. I know my rights and the law. So even if I owe this debt, it is well past the statue of limitations for anyone to file any kind of law suit. She got really Pissy with me and said well you know everything donât you? Where did you go to law school? So I got Pusey back and said wheee did YOU go to law school. We bickered back and forth before she hung up. Donât fall for these scams, if a âdebt collectorâ contact you about a debt you have the right to ask questions and have them send you proof of the debt. If you still donât feel comfortable with it, contact the company who is the original owner of the debt. They will be able to tell you what collection agency it was sent to.
Second update…
They have called yet again! This time they are trying to play dirty. One of the âmanagersâ there, forget what he said his first name was, but he said his last name was van buren. Now I am being threatened, saying that if I donât pay, they will contact my employer claiming to be a customer, saying I made racist comments in order to get me fired! So disgusting!
UPDATE…
After filing a complaint with the Delaware state attorneys office online, I was contacted by a rep from there and she confirmed that this is indeed a SCAM. DO NOT give these people Or any other company like this ANY of your information, ss#, bank account info, Current or previous addresses…NOTHING, JUST HANG UP!
Maurice Michael Otunga (January 1923 â 6 September 2003) was a Kenyan Roman Catholic prelate and cardinal who served as the Archbishop of Nairobi from 1971 until his resignation in 1997.[1][2] Pope Paul VI elevated him into the cardinalate in 1973 as the Cardinal-Priest of San Gregorio Barbarigo alle Tre Fontane. Otunga was the son of a tribal chief and denied taking his father’s place so as to pursue a path to the priesthood after completing his studies at home and in Rome. He was made a bishop in the 1950s and then transferred to a new diocese at its head; he later was transferred to Nairobi and was a participant in the Second Vatican Council.[1][2][3]
Otunga was known for his vehement opposition to the use of condoms and twice in the 1990s burnt boxes of condoms before the faithful. He explained that contraception was in breach of Christian teaching and that it was in opposition to Humanae Vitae issued in 1968. He was also a vocal critic of abortion and was critical of priests who involved themselves in social and political controversies.[4]
His cause of canonization has commenced and he has been titled as a Servant of God.[1
Mr. Kennedy was rude from the start then brought my mother into the conversation after I challenged there standing in collections of my alleged debt. He’s lucky I couldn’t get my hands through the phone. COMPLETE SCAM! I WOULD LIKE A RETURN PHONE CALL.
I tried to resolve this with the bank and they didnt let me. i had to wait until they sent to collections and deal with this company. they did not let me pay the original amount even after i told them i lost work from covid. i had to pay the full amount. greed is not good and karma will follow

said I had a debt with Wachovia and Wells Fargo still pwed which was paid in full back in 2013. I asked to email my paid in full letter so they would leave me alone and they said for privacy to fax it to 3023369732. I didn’t of course and when I called back to ask more questions and see if they received my fax to see what they would say, they kept hanging up. I sure hope they catch these people, from google searches it looks like this scam has been going on a while. It was a man and woman that’s it. He said his name was Perry Kennedy and their website is still active using a number of 8776810720. They repeated the last 4 digits of my social, certainly hoping they didn’t have entire SSN.
This company contacted me saying that I am in debt with a bank that I never had an account with it 15 years ago. Iâve called back to get more information from them, but nobody answered. What is this? It is just absurd! How can this happened?
This should be illegal!
I explained to these people that although i remember this debt I do not have the money to pay right now. A man named William said that this can affect my credit and possibly my bank accounts. After talking for some time he was able to take some money off and settled the acct for almost half. Lord knows with this pandemic that most people are still struggling but I’m glad he was able to help me.
You were scammed. đ
You were scammed banks donât use collections… they write it off as bad debt and you can only handle with bank. These people steal the info and collect the money for themselves! Call your bank they will tell you!
These people are so aggressive! I know i had the account and that i owed and after i explained that i had no current employment because of covid they were still going to report to my credit. i really tried to work with them but they would only discount my restitution by $150 had they contacted me 5 years ago i would have had this paid
You were scammed. Just because you know you owed the bank why would you not ask for them to send you verification of the debt to collect by email or in mail? Donât just pay scammers on the phone! Now they have your info! Look these people up! Dover police already have a case but they said… these people do not have an office there and website is linked to Canada!

You must be someone that works for the company.
Thatâs funny because this is a scam. Wachovia/Wells Fargo do not use third parties to collect bad debts. They keep all accounts in house and ChexSystems does not have the ability to freeze financial accounts. They are merely a consumer reporting agency.

I went about my business and denied it Today I received a letter from my bank informing me that my account is being closed due to the fact that I am not in Chexsystems! I then went to my local grocery store store and used my debit card and it was denied. Called the bank and was told they would release my money to me to in 60 to 90days! I then contacted Chexsystems and I was told I now need to pay the entire $1200 to get my bank account back! This entire situation is a nightmare! I should have just paid the $700 and been done with it! I don’t know about anybody else but this situation is real!

I called Hamilton Jacob & Associates and the receptionist attended me very well it was fast. Spoke to one of the Case Manager, they was very nice and actually gave me more information I didnât know about my dept with wellfargo! Iâm glad I called them back and paid my dept. It was super easy and Fast. I donât regret it. You wonât either…
I remembered having the account but i know for sure i only overdrafted a few hundred they wanted $800. After 20 minutes of back and forth they finally settled for $400 not super happy but at least it wont go on my credit
I just had dealings with this company. At first I thought it was a scam however after I received a notice from my bank stating that they were going to freeze my bank account I realized I was very wrong. Luckily I called back and was able to speak to my case manager and get this resolved so I could maintain my banking privileges. The lady I spoke to was nice and understanding and worked with me in setting up a payment plan I could afford. I received a paid in full document 10 days after I paid and everything is good now. Dont believe everything you read online.
THIS IS A SCAM. DO NOT PAY THEM A PENNY AND DO NOT PROVIDE THEM WITH ANY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. My partner received a phone call today regarding a âcivil disputeâ and requested a call back within 72 hours. I told her that I thought it was a scam, but she should call them just in case to see what it was about. She called them back and they asked her if she knew me, she responded âYesâ and they then asked for her to relay a message. At that point, I simply took over the call and asked how I could help them. The lady introduced herself as âJennifer Campbellâ and stated that she was a Case Manager for Hamilton Jacobs & Associates, a law firm contacting me on behalf of the client Wachovia Bank/Wells Fargo related to a checking account that was opened in 2009 (closed in 2011 and charged off in 2014). None of which are true. When I requested validation and verification of the debt, I was sent an email entitled âSettlement Offerâ. When informed Jennifer that this was not sufficient verify the validity of the debt, she became defensive and stated that if I didnât care about my credit and finances she did t. She went to threaten legal action, reporting the account to ChexSystems and freezing my financial accounts. I told her that I wasnât paying a dime on account that I knew was in good standing and unless she could provide a legitimate validation of the debt, she could go to hell and I hung up the phone. I reached out to Wells Fargo and was informed that this was a scam. All of my accounts were in good standing at the time of closure and an account did not exist with the account number I was provided. I was also transferred to the collections department who states that this was a scam and informed me that Wells Fargo does not contract with third parties, including law firms in an effort to collect debts – they keep all accounts in house.
WOW! Just received a very alarming voicemail from Jenay (the receptionist). When I called back I spoke with Jenay who tried to transfer me to Kenyatta (the case manager). According to Jenay’s voicemail we had 72 hours to contact them with our lawyer. When asked what this was in reference to she could not say and every attempt to transfer to the case manager failed. Lucky for me I searched the company before calling and found this page… I quickly fired back calling them for what they were… COMPLETE FRAUDS! Sucks at a time like this people still manage to find ways to try and get over on others.
William Parcell is a joke and phony. Get yourself a real job dude. Big Loser!

Just received a call from 302-202-6542 asking me for $880 for a Wachovia/Wells Fargo account that I had over 15 years ago. I stated that I had documentation that the balanced was paid and was told that that information was no longer valid because when they sold to Wells Fargo they assumed all unpaid balances and I now had to negotiate a settlement again. The sleaze ball I spoke with was William Parcel. I quickly told him I would get back with him and investigated to see that it was a scam and called back to tell him to get a real job and stop harassing people and for him not to call me again upon which he said that not only would he continue to call me everyday for the rest of this week, but he would also call my mom, brother, daughter and son as well. THIS IS TOTALLY A SCAM! DO NOT GIVE ANY NUMBER OR MONEY TO THESE PEOPLE! They use scare tactics to make you think that your credit and debit cards will be cancelled and disabled if you do not pay this ! It’s all bull!

I had a call from these jokes about a Wachovia account that never existed. They had my ss#. All my old addresses where they said they sent mail and I didn’t respond. They said they had experian reports and was going take my checking account and couldn’t get another account for 4 years. They said I will be sued. Wow. I talked to woman then a man. They tried to threaten and intimidate me. He got mad and hung up after I asked him did he want my credit card number cause I don’t have one.
I received a call yesterday very similar to those listed above. They claim I owe Wachovia/Wells Fargo $1,400+ from 2014 charged off account in FL. I’ve lived in Michigan since 2012 so I was a little perplexed. I don’t remember having an account with Wachovia. They offered me a reduced settlement of $700. I asked for documentation and only received a settlement letter. Their website email is bogus. Same threats: garnishment, liens, and ChexSystems. Super aggressive. After my blood pressure went down I tried to request documentation via email but it bounced back as invalid. They had my name and last 4 of my SS#, and my address…but who doesn’t really! I would imagine garnishing wages etc., would require more than a phone call. I googled them and here I am. Times are stressful enough right now without this. I’m so glad this site exists! Thank you.

BRILLIANT! Thanks for more evidence guys! Anyone who receives mail from this ‘company’ should first of all laugh very loudly, then promptly photocopy it (envelope and all), secure it in a ziplock (yes, fingerprints have been documented and already found in criminal databases) and hand it to law enforcement. Send copies to BBB, SEC, Attorney General, and USPS (all of Dover, DE region) via email as they are being investigated and will surely get caught soon. Although officials have in fact confirmed the physical address does not exist for this entity, they are the ones handling it since it attempts to represent an LLC established there. Stay blessed my fellow citizens!
They are using outdated information on old accounts (that were never delinquent) and previous addresses to stir up trouble. Do not engage, call Dover police and report to BBB. Harry Kennedy is a joke, an uneducated fool that thinks others are even less educated than him. He called me on an EMPLOYEE account for an institution that I actually worked for that actually had to compensate ME after the fact, LMFAO! Good luck ‘Harry’. God Bless You, you will surely need it soon enough, watch. Got a call saying that they were a legal firm collecting on a delinquent personal account that does NOT exist. They had all of my personal information scrambled. I notified the bank in question to make sure that all of my prior and current relationships/accounts were in good standing. This was confirmed and documentation was obtained of this. Upon contacting the ‘agent’ to discuss that they have incorrect information on my ID and account statuses I was told I would STILL be reported to ChexSystems. I am not at all worried as I have my evidence to prove my good statuses and there are fraud/security alerts on my ID/credit. However others may fall for it easily as they appear to have a legit website. If the business is in fact legitimate, they are still knowingly and willingly participating in fraudulent collections practices as they were made aware that their information is false. They refuse to follow appropriate protocol on disputed information. The ‘account’ and ‘balance’ information is completely fabricated, don’t believe them, DON’T pay, they will get aggressive, harrass, and threaten you .(That’s fine, let them bark, that’s all it is lol!) Just hang up, report them, and call the creditor in question yourself to obtain the factual evidence on your account standing through them directly. Local Dover, DE police have been notified.
GREAT NEWS! These geniuses actually send out ‘invoices’…LMFOAAA!

Woman harassed me about an old account that was 15 years old. They left me a message and said that I had a lawsuit that would freeze all my assets and bank accounts if I didnât pay and tried to pressure me into saying i owe this debt. With the current pandemic this has brought on a deal of anxiety and stress! Why would someone do this? After calling her back she screamed at me at demanded that I pay her. This is utterly ridiculous!
I had them call my number and stated my full SSN which now Iâm pissed. I payed off all my debts especially the one there stated because I brought a house 4 years ago and anyone whose brought a home knows nothing goes missing from the mortgage loan lenders so in total I knew this was bullshyt from the get go…but now I have to go to my SS office and block my SSN and have a PiN associated with it!

These people told me that they are filing a civil suit against me, stating that I owe bank fees for a bank account from 2009 for Wachovia/Wells Fargo. I continued to tell them that its not my account nor did I have a Wachovia account. They have my complete social security number and of course my address because they had to search for my cell phone number, and they’re using my maiden name. They also said that the account was closed in 2011 and they received the account in 2014. If this is the case, then why does their website state its only been up since January of 2019? Fact! Secondly I googled the address from the letter they sent to my email, it has 2 different zip codes. I called the number associated with the address and the lady said that the company isn’t in the building but they are a virtual business. This is complete fraud, and I don’t know what to do because they have my information. Someone please help!
Omg, they are a joke. They said I owed something from 2008, which the bank said I didnât owe. When I told them this they got mad and threatened to call family members telling them I didnât pay my debts. They also called me a homos***l
same happened to me. I just laughed at him and told him to get a real job! These people are a joke!

This law firm is scamming people. They called us and told us they were collecting a debt from Wachovia/Wells Fargo from 2009. I did some research online and found reports of the same scam directed at other people. We contacted Wells Fargo and were told that it was a scam and they donât even turn collections over to law firms. They have continued to call us and are getting very aggressive. We have blocked them as of today.

I received a call from this company today. They were looking for my husband but did not have an updated phone number for him. They said he owed a debt that was in collections from Wachovia/Wells Fargo. They wanted me to ask him to call them, and would not disclose any other information to me. After my husband called them, he called me (he was at work) and told me what the lady, Mrs. Nancy, said. She said he owed a balance to the bank and theyâve been trying to reach him since 2009. I told him not to pay them anything and to contact the bank directly. He said he gave them my name to authorize me on the account to speak with them. I called them back. I tried to ask for a letter to be mailed to our home stating what was owed, but Mrs. Nancy cut me off, was extremely rude, and hung up on me. I tried to call back and asked to speak with her supervisor. They said that they could take a message and that she would call me. Mrs. Nancy called me shortly after; not the supervisor (Jennifer Campo). She was much nicer and kept accusing me of trying to destroy my husbands credit because I was asking for a letter to be mailed to us. She refused to speak with me and said she would call my husband directly now. My husband was on the phone with Wells Fargo when I googled the company. I texted him when I saw these scam reports on the ScamPulse.com website. He has since blocked their numbers and we will not be giving them anything!

They are trying to verify personal information that they already have. There is no way to contact them except the number.

I received an automated call stating that I was being sought to answer a civil dispute and that time was
running out to respond and resolve amicably before litigation process began. I returned the call and was
immediately told that my number was flagged in their system as being involved in a civil dispute. I was
immediately transferred. Someone named Ian answered the phone and began to explain that I was
being sued by Wachovia/Wells Fargo for "restitution of a government account" for an overdraft of over
$1000 and that they were trying to settle this debt amicably before it was handed off to "check systems"
for litigation. He stated the last 4 of my social and asked to verify that he was speaking to the correct
person. He stated that they had previously tried to contact me at a 12 year old address that was never
my address of record. Then he stated that their records showed my current address as the correct one
and that they had sent me written correspondence in the last 60 days. I assured him that they had not as
I had received nothing from a company called Hamilton, Jacobs, & Associates. He then requested my
email address and sent me a document titled "settlement letter." I tried to explain to him that I had
recently gone through a bankruptcy and that he should be talking to my lawyer. He again said that this
was "restitution for a government account" and that it had nothing to do with my bankruptcy. That’s when
the threats of litigation, asset siezure, and jail time began. I then calmly informed him that I knew my
rights under the FDCPA and that I was formally disputing his claim that I owed any monies and that an
electronic and written copy of my dispute would follow. He became very angry and yelled, "Well sir it
doesn’t look like you’re willing to resolve this amicably so I’ll send this over to a litigator in your district
and you can take your chances with check systems!" And then he hung up on me. NOTE: Several things
I’ve noticed… 1) Zipcode on the "settlement letter" and website do not match ( 85004 vs 19901). 2)
Phone numbers between the "settlement letter and website do not match ( (855) 200-4529 vs (877) 681-
0720 ). 3) The amount in the "settlement letter" was less than was verbally stated. 4) The website on the
letterhead of the "settlement letter" was mispelled. 5) The email used to send the settlement letter is very
likely bogus. 6) The website appears bogus. Each of the four basic pages went live on different dates
only a year ago. Home – Mar 2, 2019 / About – Mar 31, 2019 / Practice Area & Contact – Apr 5, 2019. Pro
web builders ( like myself ) simply wouldn’t do that for the basic pages making up their site. They’d go
live on the same date. 7) After doing some digging, I discovered that they’ve tried to pull this on lots of
people ( https://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-302-202-3249 ). I hope all of this info helps.
