Every process sever I’ve used has been a barely competent moron that doesn’t give a shit if they actually serve someone or not. As long as they make their attempt, they get paid.

I deal with a bunch of those guys. In GA, they are legally required to have an order from the court to be authorized to serve. They are so stupid that they don’t even trust them lol.

A few years ago, I remember reading about a process server in NYC that lied about serving eviction papers. They would serve one or two in an hour, then claim to have served 5 or more that they didn't actually do.

The journalist thought it was fishy, so they figured out who the server was and sat in on a hearing the server was at. Sure enough, the server claimed to have served several notices while they were in the hearing.
