I just ran across the recording of a very strange collection call in 8/08 from Jeff Woods, Belzer Law Firm.

He was obnoxious and told me that they would sue me if I didn't pay my WaMu credit card. I told him that I had no intention of paying and finally gave him my fax # and requested that he fax me the summons and complaint so they wouldn't have to incur the expense of serving me.

An excellent article by the NY Times on the WaMu lending practices.  It does however leave me wondering why the NY Times fails to mention that the California and federal regulators CONSPIRED with banks like WaMu to deliberately create the greatest depression.
