Are You Being Called By Gemini Capital Group?*

The possibility of receiving a 5000% return on investment encourages collection agencies to use hostile, deceptive and unfair tactics on targeted consumers. If you ever find yourself on the receiving end of such abuse, a consumer attorney can help you protect your rights.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, requires third-party collection agencies to be civil and transparent when contacting you about a debt. Collection actions like those listed below are illegal and can result in penalties like fines and license revocation.

• Calling at inconvenient times
• Ignoring a formal cease communications request
• Contacting you at work after being advised that you are not allowed to talk to them there
• Threatening to damage your reputation and credit rating
• Use profane or obscene language
• Leaving voice messages that do not identify the collector and the reason for their call

Gemini Capital Group is a collection agency located in White Plains, New York. It opened for business in 2010, has ten employees, and is managed by Roger Neustadt.

Alleged Violations against Gemini Capital Group

According to PACER, in or around July or August 2010, Gemini Capital Group began garnishing the bank account of a consumer it had obtained a judgment against. He complained that he had not received any notice before the garnishment began, although the Fourteenth Amendment stated that he was entitled to notice.

Feeling harassed by Gemini Capital Group, the consumer hired an attorney and sued the agency for allegedly:

• Misrepresenting the character, amount, or legal status of a debt
• Taking action that cannot legally be taken

The matter was settled.
