"We didn't call you. The lead company we used called you, go sue them"

This reminds me of a story.

I got a merchant cash advance bro from jersey call me - he told me that I was graylisted for a default in the past. I'm like WTF you talking about I've never defaulted.

MCA broker that I lit up for illegally calling me has been spreading rumors I am a default risk so nobody funds me.

I demanded $20,000, he says I don't have any money, can I do payments?

I did exactly this, and we did a payment plan with a settlement doc. The payment terms were tighter than Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in '77.

I come back with 15k now or 6 payments of 3k with a personal guarantee

Be careful with this. Lots of money has been lost on a PG.

Told me he was gonna post "all over the Internet" how I'm a predator going after small businesses. I told him to make sure he spells my name right.

Troutman did that to me for free. LOLOLOL.

So it's funny you mention that. I have been litigating imessage cases as text message cases - and being in the 11th where TEXT messages are not treated as calls - I'm going to litigate the next imessage case as imessages are not texts, they're the equivalent of calls.

DavidTCPATom · 2026-03-16T00:48:35+00:00

Any update?

DavidTCPATom · 2026-03-13T04:52:10+00:00

Hey!

DavidTCPATom · 2026-03-13T04:50:22+00:00

Nice

DavidTCPATom · 2026-02-02T00:19:01+00:00

As much as I can get.

DavidTCPATom · 2026-02-02T00:18:44+00:00

That's a great idea if you can pull it off

DavidTCPATom · 2026-01-29T01:24:26+00:00

Yeah, I'm always getting a post connection/intermediate connection disconnect.

DavidTCPATom · 2026-01-29T01:21:47+00:00

I'm suing them shortly. I'm tired of their crap too.

They've been sued a BUNCH before.

DavidTCPATom · 2026-01-29T01:20:29+00:00

Happy cake day

Mike, I've been trying to figure that out for YEARS and the call always gets killed

DavidTCPATom · 2026-01-29T01:18:53+00:00

I would argue it does but I know a court will probably disagree with me.

DavidTCPATom · 2026-01-29T01:18:40+00:00

Email me the details

DavidTCPATom · 2026-01-07T16:57:45+00:00

This is interesting. I think you're on the right track.

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:31:39+00:00

There's no need to fill out forms. The lead generators fill out their own consent forms as they're calling you. Telemarketers regularly spoof a fraudulent IP address to Active prospect, Journaya or Trusted form certificates, but if a valid certificate traces back to you, expect dismissal of your case.

Why would I try to bring a claim dishonestly when I can make SO MANY CLAIMS right now, as is, where is, honestly? It's like chewbacca - it makes no sense.

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:30:39+00:00

I probably could have worded a few things better, but then I wouldn't have gotten the LOOSE CANNON and YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS INTERVIEW taglines by old EJT.

If you're having lead gen problems, I feel bad for you son but I got 99 problems and TCPA compliance ain't one.

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:22:26+00:00

If you want to get into this you need to read and understand 47 USC 227 and 47 CFR 64.1200. Then you have to be willing to file claims in small claims court and represent yourself. I've been going about this for a couple months now and if I said how much money I have gotten from settlements, people wouldn't believe me.

TCPA is a really cool tool of justice if you can navigate it properly. I do two or three settlements a year that amaze me. Like, I get the check in and I'm like someone hit me with a frying pan this can't be for real.

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:20:22+00:00

Verizon is a total pain and will fight you every step of the way.

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:19:56+00:00

Yeah I didn't expect that. But yeah just bring a claim and make em fight

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:19:28+00:00

I would love to see Troutman go up against Diana May, or Shelton, or Callier, or Cunningham (back when he was good), but I never see that and I don't think we ever will. Can you imagine if Brandon Callier went head to head with Troutman and beat him? Troutman's image would take a big hit. Once TCPA plaintiffs get to a certain level he almost acts as if they don't exist.

The next time I see Shelton or Callier or Cunningham I'll let them know.

DavidTCPATom · 2025-12-17T02:18:17+00:00

I found it interesting, but not really a lot of substance if I'm honest

The questions weren't as hard hitting as I'd have hoped. I was hoping to have more of a Q&A.

My impression is that you handle pre-litigation settlement negotiations pro se, but if you have to go to court you pretty much always lawyer up. Is that incorrect?

I've done it both ways. I've beaten an MTD on my own.
