: California Credit Law BlogRickenbacker Collections and Experian Victimize Consumers
By Kemnitzer, Anderson, Barron, Ogilvie & Brewer
Debt collector Rickenbacker Collections, Morgan Hill, California, collects debts for auto towing companies. Nothing wrong with that except Rickenbacker sometimes targets persons who do not owe the debt. When that happens and the person protests, Rickenbacker does not go away. Instead, at least in some cases Rickenbacker's debt collectors keep harassing the innocent individuals.
Once Rickenbacker thinks it has the debtor's identity, it obtains a copy of the person's credit report from Experian which it has no right to do without there having been a debtor-creditor relationship. The Experian report gives Rickenbacker information on where he lives and how to contact the person. Rickenbacker also reports the debt on the innocent person's Experian credit report thereby damaging that person's credit.
Person victimized by Rickenbacker and Experian may wish to contact KABOB to discuss their legal rights against these companies.
