This complaint is not about repeated phone calls, but rather repeated information subpoenas to my bank and my job. On XX/XX/XXXX of last year, I was contacted by email by XXXX XXXX, Esq.at Asset Pursuit about a judgement entered against me in XX/XX/XXXX. I was coerced into signing it by an acquaintance, XXXX XXXX, who illegally rented his condo to me. When the condo board found out, they informed him he had 10 days to get the illegal tenant out of the building. I was behind on rent but I was making a good faith effort to get back on track. I wasn't evicted. During this time, XXXX XXXX harassed me with both the threat of XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. Asset Pursuit is XXXX XXXX 's third attempt to collect on this judgement. XXXX XXXX requested a complete record of my banking statements dating back to the first of the year. I complied. I also enlisted the help of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX because I am almost XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX. After I submitted all the documents, XXXX XXXX asked me what I could pay his client. My lawyer advised to state that I wasn't in a position to settle because my income barely met my expenses. Since the beginning of this year, I have received the following information subpoenas to my bank : XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX an information subpoena to my job XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XX/XX/XXXX That is a total of XXXX information subpoenas in less than a year, to a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX woman who works part-time. I would think by now that Asset Pursuit has a very clear picture of my finances. It must also be clear that I am not hiding assets. At this juncture, it is harassment and intentional infliction of emotional damage. I am asking that they be stopped. I am asking for my legal right to privacy. I am tired of being surveilled. This has been going on for almost a year. My income hasn't changed -- in fact it has gone down because Social Security reduced my benefits. Thank you for your time and patience. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX XXXX
10/29/2022	Yes	Debt collection Other debt	Attempts to collect debt not owed Debt was already discharged in bankruptcy and is no longer owed	NY 10462	Web
A debt of {$12000.00} for unpaid attorney fees was discharged in bankruptcy in 2010 and the judge issued only a charging lien against any divorce assets that I might recover. My personal assets remained protected but the attorney persuaded a collection agency ( asset pursuit ) to freeze {$5000.00}. in my bank account. The bank also took {$120.00} out of my account for processing fees. Asset Pursuit then authorized the release of my account and {$5000.00} was returned to me however Asset Pursuit is refusing to return the processing fee of {$120.00}. My cash flow was impacted for approximately two weeks and I am apprehensive that this may occur again in the future. My bills were paid late and late fees were assessed even though this debt that they attempted to collect was fully discharged in bankruptcy. The original amount they sought was {$31000.00} which is yet another error. I have retained all of the emails showing that Asset Pursuit acknowledges the debt as having been discharged and they proceeded to release my funds. ;
