A consumer claims McCarthy, Burgess & Wolff mailed a collection notice that made it difficult to determine which entity was her account's true creditor.
West Virginia
McCarthy, Burgess & Wolff, Inc. is the defendant in a proposed class action out of West Virginia in which the plaintiff alleges the debt collector mailed a notice in which it was impossible for her to determine the entity to which she was indebted. The plaintiff’s case sticks on the defendant listing Crown Asset Management, LLC as the woman’s original creditor, while listing the same company as her current creditor.
“Upon information and belief,” the complaint reads, “[the plaintiff] alleges that Crown Asset Management, LLC was never a creditor with whom [the plaintiff] did business and as such the claim that Crown Asset Management, LLC is [the plaintiff’s] ‘Original Creditor’ is a false, deceptive or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of debt.”
