MIAMI — A consumer is suing New Penn Financial LLC, d/b/a Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, a debt collector, citing alleged misrepresentation in debt collection.

Aarambh Shah filed a complaint on Oct. 19 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida Miami Division against New Penn Financial LLC, d/b/a Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, alleging that the debt collector sent a collection letter to plaintiff without stating the purpose of the letter.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that since February, he has received collection notices for a debt he does not owe. The plaintiff holds New Penn Financial LLC, d/b/a Shellpoint Mortgage Servicing, responsible because the defendant allegedly attempted to collect a debt the plaintiff does not owe.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks actual damages, statutory damages of $1,000, all legal fees and any other relief this court deems just. He is represented by Nicholas Michael Murado of Murado Law, P.A. in Miramar.
