Laurence A. Hecker

[Frisbee]

You are very welcome. I'm wondering: is it possible to CMRRR BUT to have ONLY the receipt (Hecker) sign? That should be interesting.

[honeyo]

Yeah, maybe I should try that....see what happens! I bet it comes right back to me!

 

And BTW, I just called Suite 1700 and they have never heard of a Laurence Hecker! SHOCK!

[hlburi]

With a name like Laurence A Hecker, the guy sounds like he should be doing vaudeville. If I had to talk to him in person, it would be hard to keep a straight face.

[honeyo]

LOL -- tell me about it!!!! I just called the office of the address he is making me send all the correspondence to, and had to ask for him, and managed to keep the straight face! hehehe.

[Caramel_Pinay]

Frisbee, you seriously rock!!!!

[Frisbee]

You Called? This is getting more and more weird. Who the heck is accepting his mail there? Nobody I spoke with in the lobby (ground floor where the 1000 number suites are btw) knew of him. All I can tell you is that address is very high rent district. Not someplace a CA would be renting. Weird.

 

Another thought: There is no order to the Suite numbers. What I mean is that apparently you could ask for the number 1000, or 1200 or whatever. There are only a very, very few offices in there. The numbers were random, except that Suite 1000 indicated ground floor, 2000 was second floor etc up to 4th floor. But there was no 1001, 1002, etc...very random. Suite 1100 was next to Suite 1700. Even my dd commented on how "confusing" the numbers were.

 

This is so weird! Wait, stop...just remembered, the most floor space on the ground floor was the managing agency I believe Aegis. That is the major reason that there were so few other offices there. Could they be accepting bogus mail?

hmmmmm

thanks Caramel, we already had that though. Dear Mr. Attorney was also santioned for 6 months for all kinds of misdeeds. His assistant apparently went to jail and get this, when the assistant got out....you got it, Mr. Attorney rehired him, even though the crimes were committed in the Attorneys office and had to do with client money. Nice huh?

 

If an attorney here wanted a "nice" zip code, it would be Princeton. Something is going on here...and it's not legit from what I found out.

[honeyo]

And the plot thickens!!!!

 

Yes Caramel -- is he not fantastic!!!!

 

Frisbee -- Yeah, the lady who answered the phone said that there is no such a person working at their firm, she has never heard the name.

And if I could actually read the name on the green card I could ask for that person maybe. I can make out Joseph but the last name I can't figure out.

 

Something has to be going on with the mail being sent there...? What kinda place is Toms River? Might the address be why he is using a different address?

 

The post mark on the envelope he sent me says "KILMER P&DC NJ 088" I don't know anything about post marks but maybe it makes sense to someone else????

 

I smell fish?!

[sparklediamant]

Oh my gosh, this is crazy! Good luck, he sounds like a nutcase!

 

From USPS website:

 

"When you want your mail to reach a specific recipient, use Restricted Delivery.

 

Sometimes, you might have private or highly classified documents that you require to be seen only by the addressee. Restricted Delivery ensures that your mail is only delivered to the person you specify, or to the person authorized in writing to sign for intended recipient. Mail for minors or persons under guardianship may be delivered to their parents or guardians."

 

That may be a thing to do if you still want to pursue it.

Well, actually you DO smell fish!!! Toms River is about 45 minutes from here. It's down at "the shore"...we don't say beach here (that's NY..we say Shore lol). Toms River is, how can I say this, more fun, carnival like.

 

Princeton is just the way you picture it. It is very old, historic and a University Town, although the Princeton Univ is dead center of town and a very quiet like college...Princeton is very, very serious. It's old money.

 

It's dead center between Philadelphia and NYC. That makes living here very, very expensive and very, very attractive to commuters with "new money".

 

The businesses here are pharaceutical (spelling, sorry). Building is not encouraged and when it is, it's under a lot of particular codes. Toms River would be different. Basically you live in Princeton if you are lucky, you play in Toms River.

 

Hope nobody here is upset by my thoughts here. I love the Shore!!!!

[Caramel_Pinay]

Fishy Fanny? ROFLMAO (That is a quote from an infamous-thrice-banned CB member)

[honeyo]

The letter head says: LAW OFFICES OF LAURENCE A HECKER. At the bottom of the letter there is no name... just a scribble off a signature that "looks" like it starts with an "L" and off course the all important ATTORNEY AT LAW!

 

So do I just assume that this is from Hecker himself and do what sparklediamant suggested: restricted delivery? See if it comes back to me?

Scroll down...Kilmer means Post Office In Edison. Edison is 15 minutes north of here. I happen to KNOW all Princeton mail goes through Trenton...anyone remember the anthrax scare of 2001...Trenton.

[Trilliums]

I just did a Restricted Delivery to the Prez of a CA, and the gent at the Post Office told me that there are instances where another authorized person of the CA may be signing for the doc. Sure enough, that's what happened. Or, might this storefront law "firm" have a Registered Agent?

[honeyo]

Something just isn't right....that suite number doesn't even exist so someone in that building must be accepting the mail for my friend. I don't know how to figure it out though.....we'll see what happens with him!

 

Thanks!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

You are probably right.

 

Someone is accepting mail for him. That is FRAUD.

[honeyo]

Simple proof that this guy really is a scum bag so I will just sit back now and laugh laugh laugh!!!

And to think, I nearly DIED when I received that first letter! "OMG A LAWYER IS AFTER US!!!!"

[honeyo]

Hey Frisbee....any new info on that address?????

 

I'm getting ready to send out the second dv to him; I'm sending it to this same address on College Road. Who knows what'll happen? We shall see. This time I'm only giving him 15 days though, right?

 

Do you guys think I should send it to ONLY mr Hecker via restricted delivery and see what happens or just play dumb and do it like I did DV #1?????

 

Thanks!

[Caramel_Pinay]

This thread cracks me up.

Ha! Just because someone is an attorney doesn't mean they uphold the law. Just means they are more versed in loopholes to get around the law. If "Mr." (and I use that term loosely) Hecker is in fact the kind of attorney I suspect that he is, I have no doubt he rehired his ex-Con employee.

Hello,

I am being harrassed by Mr. Hecker. He has never sent me a letter just called me. Well the people that call say they work for him. He use to call my house but he no longer does that he calls my husband at work telling him that he is going to go to jail. I have no problem paying this if I owe it. Well my husband talked to them a couple of weeks ago and they said they would settle for $800.00 alot of money but still have never seen anything in writing from them. Someone called my husband at work today "Steve Petersn" saying that Laurence Hecker gave him the case to federally proscute...Well now my husband is freaking out. He gave me the number and the guys name. I called this number and it is the same place that I have called Mr. Heckers office at and spoke to a Mr. Pride. They asked me who I was when I told them that I wanted to find out how much money I owe them and a address I could send the money too they put me on hold and they never got back on the phone. I looked Mr. Hecker up on the internet and found more then one address for him 650 College Rd East ste 1800 Princeton NJ and 109 Division St Tom Rivers NJ. I have told them to send me a copy of the bill and I will mail them a cashiers check. They will not do it they insist I give them a check or credit card over the phone which I will not do. When i refuse to do this they tell my husband they are going to press charges against him. Does anyone know anything about this guy, his business???

Thanks

Lawyers whose main business is collecting debts are considered collectors, subject to FDCPA,

[xythlord]

Beth....first off, just breath. They are not going to put your husband in jail, we do not have debtors prison in this country. This CA is trying very hard to take advantage of your ignorance of the laws, and unless he identifies himself as part of the law enforcement community he cannot under any circumstances send someone to jail, and even then it always requires a trial.

 

There are many people on these forums who know a great deal more than I do about credit matters, but the first thing you should do is no longer speak with an CA on the phone except to say "I am sorry but it is inconvenient for me to deal with you on the phone and I will wait on your letter 5 days from now, my address is such and such, good bye". Do not ask for any information, deny anything, promise anything, nothing!

 

Then you need to start reading up on the newbies section pronto. They (the collection agencies) have to send you a dunning letter, you are allowed to request a validation letter (proof that you owe the money). There are many things they cannot do, and you can tell them in a letter not to talk to you on the phone at all, only by mail. But you must read to learn your rights....and you have lots of them!

 

Good Luck!

Newbie are you in NJ? Hecker's office is to be avoided. They are scum. IF you are in a one party state (NJ) is, that means you can tape the calls w/o notifying the other party. NOBODY is going to jail. It is illegal for them to tell you that. It is illegal for them to tell you there is a lawsuit pending when they have no intention of filing one.

 

STAY OFF THE PHONE. The reason they continue to call is that you answer and TALK TO THEM.

 

Please consider starting a new thread and tell us about the alleged debt. We need to know:

you state and if debt acquired in different state...

how old is this alleged debt? YEAR/MONTH

what have you told them...did you admit anything?

 

The addys you found are inaccurate. I know EXACTLY where Hecker's office is. It's in Washington Township, NJ. That's how sleazy they are. They don't even give you contact info.

 

Start a new thread and we'll help you out. Put Hecker's name in the Title of your thread so we can better find it.

 

Do NOT pay them.
