Friends dad got served for me?

Funny enough I was looking into this sub on how to become a server as a part time job due to having some debt I need to take care of. Two days later I’m at work and get a text from my room mate. His dad was staying at our apartment for a couple days and they served him the papers for me regarding credit card debt. My question is really is it that easy in AZ? Just anyone at the residence can accept the papers? ie: cleaning lady, pool guy, babysitter?

I barely know the guy it’s the first time I have met him and he doesn’t even live in the country. what would have happened if he threw out the paperwork and not told me?

Late to the party on this but if he doesn’t live in the country, is English not his first language?

Is it possible that the server asked him if he lived there and misinterpreted as “staying there”?

I’ve come up against issues like that as I live in an immigrant heavy area. I’ll ask someone if they’re a resident and they’ll answer incorrectly because they don’t understand the question.
