Our Founder
In 2016, shortly after his time in the Marine Corps, Ray Bueno was taken advantage of by
phony debt collectors. After paying more than $3,850 to the phony debt collectors, who
falsely promised that his credit would improve after the debt was resolved, Ray did more
research on debt collection and found out that this company was in violation of the Fair
Debt Collection Practices Act. Because the company was not legitimate, he filed a lawsuit
with the help of Daniel Tam, from Tam Law Group, and was fortunate enough to win his money
back. He realized that this has probably happened, or could happento others as well. Ray
decided to make a video about his experience on his YouTube channel, Keeping it Real with
Credit, titled "Never Ever Pay Collections'' and shared his thoughts on how consumers should
be more cautious when communicating with debt collectors. He has created educational videos,
including information on how collection agencies operate, how to dispute, the rights you
have as a consumer, and the laws that protect you, so that people can be equipped with the
knowledge of how they should handle their debts and their credit.
