Amplicon LLC and it aliases are trying to extort me for an illegal alleged debt I do not owe through some type of collection scheme. The scheme is not providing mandatory notices to the consumer of their rights to cancel a contract or their rights to dispute a debt collector or debt buyer. XXXX XXXX and Amplicon notice reveal that they do comply with C.A. Civil Code nor Federal laws. They fail to provide mandatory notices to the consumer which are required by law. If the consumer is unaware of their right to dispute, and did not response or disrupt the alleged debt it would result in severe consequences or an automatic judgment for the consumer. It appears that they are targeting me after I notified them of the contract violation.
