12.  From around September of 2016 through February of 2017,  Defendant contacted Plaintiff on his cellular telephone, ending in 1525, in an  attempt to collect an alleged outstanding debt owed by “Maria Rodriguez”.   13.  Defendant placed multiple calls during the period from around  September of 2016 through February of 2017 to Plaintiff’s cellular telephone  from telephone numbers confirmed to belong to Defendant, including without  limitation (800) 642-4720 and call back numbers (877) 453-2904.   14.  Defendant left numerous voice messages in which Defendant  claimed to be attempting to collect a debt from “Maria Rodriguez”.   15.  Defendant used an “automatic telephone dialing system”, as defined  by 47 U.S.C. § 227(a)(1) to place its daily calls to Plaintiff seeking to collect the  debt allegedly owed by “Maria Rodriguez.”   23.  Plaintiff brings this action on behalf of himself and all others  similarly situated, as a member of the proposed class (hereafter “The Class”)  defined as follows:  All persons within the United States who received any  collection telephone calls from Defendant to said  person’s cellular telephone made through the use of  any automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial  or prerecorded voice and such person had not  previously consented to receiving such calls within  the four years prior to the filing of this Complaint.   24.  Plaintiff represents, and is a member of, The Class, consisting of All  persons within the United States who received any collection telephone calls from  Defendant to said person’s cellular telephone made through the use of any  automatic telephone dialing system or an artificial or prerecorded voice and such  person had not previously not provided their cellular telephone number to  Defendant within the four years prior to the filing of this Complaint.   25.  Defendant, its employees and agents are excluded from The Class.   Plaintiff does not know the number of members in The Class, but believes the  Class members number in the thousands, if not more.  Thus, this matter should be  certified as a Class Action to assist in the expeditious litigation of the matter.   26.  The Class is so numerous that the individual joinder of all of its  members is impractical.  While the exact number and identities of The Class  members are unknown to Plaintiff at this time and can only be ascertained  through appropriate discovery, Plaintiff is informed and believes and thereon  alleges that The Class includes thousands of members.  Plaintiff alleges that The  Class members may be ascertained by the records maintained by Defendant.   Knowing and/or Willful Violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection  Act   47 U.S.C. §227 et seq.   As a result of Defendant’s willful and/or knowing violations of 47  U.S.C. §227(b)(1), Plaintiff and the Class members are entitled to   and request treble damages, as provided by statute, up to $1,500, for  each and every violation, pursuant to 47 U.S.C. §227(b)(3)(B) and  47 U.S.C. §227(b)(3)(C).    Any and all other relief that the Court deems just and proper.
