Keith D. Weiner & Associates Co., L.P.A. Debt collection department,
I do not know Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine Maryland
A subpoena letter was sent to my workplace by a debt collection lawyer in Ohio ( - - - ) regarding a debt accrued by a person with a similar name as me. The subpoena included my name, along with a couple aliases that do not match my name. When my office manager called this law office to see why they were asking for information about me, they gave her MY social security number and told her to fill out paperwork regarding my personal information ( i.e. address and phone number ), but would n't elaborate as to why. As it turns out, they have my social security number linked with a person who owes them money, even though this person is not me, and I have never even been to the state of Ohio. The person they are searching for has a name very similar to mine, but has a different middle name. I looked this person up online ( which took a grand total of 5 minutes ) and found the person they are looking for, as well as a list of places she has lived and where she currently lives. None of these places are even close
debt using it, but it just has n't shown up on my credit report, or 2. ) These lawyers are just randomly searching for people with my name, and somehow have a way to obtain my social security number. Then they are trying to saddle me with this person 's debt without actually researching who this person is. Either way, I do not owe a penny to these people, and request that they quit harassing me and quit writing subpoenas to my workplace. I have filed an " Identity Theft Affidavit '' with the IRS, as well as an affidavit with the Federal Trade Commission. I have also filed a police report and have submitted my identification. Once the police report is finalized, I would be happy to submit that as well. The amount of time I 've had to waste because this company could n't do a five minute google search, is really ridiculous.A colleague of mine told me to file a complaint with the consumer financial protection bureau as well, in order to get this company off my back. I am requesting that Keith Weiner Law be forced to stop linking me and my social security number with someone who is clearly not me. In my opinion, this company is just taking shots in the dark in order to collect this woman 's debt, and they should be held accountable for trying to saddle some innocent person with someone else 's debt, just so they get paid. The contact information for the law firm is : Keith D. Weiner & Associates - - -, - - -, OH - -
