Fifth Third Bank Debt collection department,

Other (phone, health club, etc.) False statements or representation Indicated committed crime not paying Tennessee

I am reporting a man named - -. He calls from a disguised number and says he is the Director of Hardship and Mitigation ''. Later he changed it to Hardship and Litigation ''. He used to call me and just say he was collecting a debt but he has now changed his tactics with a professional sounding title.


many times that there was a lawsuit, though i have never seen any papers for any lawsuit. He has repeatedly called my place of business, and my cell phone, when he does not have permission to do that.. I told him years ago to stop harassing me and he responded in a hostile manner. This is a false claim because if there really were some sort of lawsuit I would have been served papers. He keeps leaving cryptic messages, including to my parents, indicating I was in some type of danger. It scared them a lot and they called me thinking I was in the hospital or something. He stopped for a while, then started up recently, again insinuating that there was some sort of court case. Since I have actually dealt with other debt collection companies that are reputable, I know that he is phony.
