Collecteral

Who is behind Collecteral

One person, working from Cyprus. This page exists because a firm about to send a debtor's name is entitled to know who receives it, and because everything else on this site asks you to check the record rather than take a claim on trust.

The founder

Amos Weiskopf. 3 years in counterterrorism, 20+ years at the intersection of software development, data engineering and applied research, starting in skip tracing in 2005.

Geography at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, then Computer Science at the University of York. The work since has included $250m of loss prevention, and engagements for multinational enterprises, government organizations, global venture investment firms, and defense startups.

The ingestion, the matching of satisfactions to the mortgages they retire, the rules that decide what counts as live debt, are built, maintained, and run by him alone.

Where the company is

Collecteral is operated from Cyprus by Tevelis Limited, a Cyprus private limited company, registration HE 492969.

Two things follow from that, and they are here rather than buried because a firm's compliance people will ask either way.

Contracting. If your firm needs to contract with, or pay, a US entity, say so early and we will tell you plainly where that stands rather than let you find out at signature.

Data protection. A company established in the European Union is subject to the GDPR for how it handles the names you send, including names of people in the United States. What that means in practice is set out in what we do with your data.

Being somewhere unexpected is not a thing to hide. It surfaces in contracting and in data questions regardless, and found late it costs more trust than it would have cost read early.

Why this exists

A judgment creditor has to decide whether to spend money on enforcement. The record can answer that question, and nothing on the market answers it.

Existing tools report what a debtor owns. None of them resolve what has already been paid off, so a search returns a property that looks encumbered when it is not, and a case that looks not worth filing when it is. That is the whole of the idea: retire what the record proves has been retired, count the rest at its recorded amount, and say plainly what cannot be answered.

What I am not

Not a lawyer, and nothing on this site is legal advice.

A report states what the record shows and cites where each line came from, so that you can pull the document yourself. What to do about it is your judgment and your client's. Where a legal test decides something, the report prints the authority beside the verdict rather than the opinion.

What the reports cannot answer is published in full, and kept current, on what we do not claim.

Reaching me

Directly. There is nobody else to route around.

The fastest way to judge any of this is to send three debtors from closed matters and grade the reports against what you already know. Or write to the address.

Bring a debtor you already know the answer on.

Send a name from a case you have closed. We run it and you tell us whether we were right. If we were not, you have lost an email.
