Do you owe this Company Money? If you don't then it likely is a scam.

You might also investigate the parties mentioned to see if they're legit. As for the letter itself, it's not worded as usual Legal notices would typically be. That I've ever read.

It is a scam. See this very similar letter posted with the same docket number: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ripoffreport.com/amp/reports/ace-inc/internet/ace-inc-recieved-and-emailed-with-a-docket-number-adw-261693-stating-that-if-i-fo-not-cal-1228289

I was going to say it sure sounds like a scam.

Don't respond. Please note the improper Americanized English. BTW, if you receive an email from the Finance Minister from Nigeria stating you are the heir to $25,000,000.00 US dollars, I've already sent the funds for the paperwork to release the funds to me. So, also ignore that email. That's my money!!!

Any letter that threatens "we will surely take hard steps against your name and social" and demands "Payment Today" just jumps out to me as scammy along with the whole remix of the English language and incorrect spelling of several words.

BUT if you do have an unpaid loan you may want to get in front of it as soon as you can before a real collection letter is sent to you or a collection damages your credit for 7 years.

Whether an email or phone call, legitimate companies do not threaten to serve you unless you respond to the email or phone call. In fact, they usually don't warn you at all that you are going to be served.

Of course it is, if the rest didn't make it obvious enough that email address should have.🤣

Total scam. Call your local police Dept and report to them along with filing with FCC. Do not call or sign.

I think he should wait. I'm busy constructing a "Don't fall for Mrs Maria Farnandez scam" message, telling those who were cheated to send just $750 (seven hundred and fifty dollars) to an account you can get by contacting me at LTL_not_a_scam_at_all_no_siree@yahoo.com and get nearly all your money back

Hi,

This email is absolutely a scam. I received the exact same email today. My response:

Go AWAY!

#1 You have the wrong person!

#2 You cannot legally garnish wages in the state of SC unless the debt is government.

#3 This is email is poorly worded, has bad punctuation and too many grammatical errors for a law firm. Did you obtain your law license at Walmart? Your investigational talents, inept concept for the English language and imbecilic tactics were my first clue!

Have a nice day!

That law firm name should've been a red flag. Then the poor grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. are next.

Finally, the fact that they use Gmail accounts is by far the biggest red flag.
