The true facts are Kupferstein who continues to remain elusive has been well and truly GOOGLED!!!!
People they have targeted in the past and potential victims of these crooks have been educated to their tactics and intimidation. What we are now seeing is a desparate attempt to shore up the mess they created for themselves?
Potential clients for the Markham act are more than likely using this site for vetting purposes and do not like what they see. Business is NOT very good!

I am so thankful to have found this site after searching the phone number to a very rude and uncooperative Mr. Sargeant. He threatened a law suit in an attempt to collect a $378 debt that is now being billed at $2,900. I asked for documentation, I asked for anything in writing, and I asked for a breakdown of this supposed bill. Mr. Sargeant danced in threatening circles around my questions, was sarcastic, rude, and frankly couldn't provide me with any information. He stated I will have the papers by last week. Still nothing. Is this a debt consolidation firm? is this a law firm that represents Canada? (I am in the States). Anything legit here?

This is just unbelievable how you "Charline" keep coming back for more when you have nothing new to provide to anyone and you have stated on more than one occasion that you will not post here again - glutten for truth are we? Apparently you stil haven't seen the light yet - that is the one leading you through the tunnel away from Paul Kuperstein's boggus firm.
I just about fell off my chair when you stated that your office makes about a 200 calls per day. Then I thought for a moment that it may be true because your so called collegues don't stay on the phone long enough to justify anyones questions for validation. They stay on long enough to verbally harrass and then hang up after threating to "sue".
"Victim of Mr. Sargeant" - you will never see a single piece of paper from this law firm - EVER! They prey on people with their scare tactics in hopes that someone, anyone they contact will send them money. Don't worry, you asked the right questions to them - FOR VALIDATION and because you know your rights, they won't contact you again but move on to their next victim.
Guest78 - I agree 100% - business must be getting slow as they seem to be spending an awful amount of time of this forum trying to defend their illegimate actions.
P.S. Great posting jedijeff13 and Fed Up!
Let's see exactly how long it takes for them to post yet again - they'll never give up trying to defend themselves (until they hopefully get shut down or go out of business) and we'll never give up making sure everyone knows exactly what they are all about - con artists.
End of story Charline or will you come back for more.

Just to let you know, in Ontario, if a Law Firm is acting as a debt collector, they do not have to be registered as a collection agency. Also, the paralegals that work for that law firm do not have to be licensed. This is the gray area that consumer advocates in Ontario are trying to change. Although, paralegals now have to carry insurance and be registered to practice as a paralegal in Ontario.
I am only mentioning this as I have to deal with a law firm on a bad debt in the past.

I really don't know the laws of Canada but I do know that the law firm tried collecting from me (I live in Texas) and the law firm of Paul Kupferstein is not even registered to collect debt in Texas. Every bill collector calling Texas consumers must be licensed and bonded, and with the Secretary of State.

A law office in Canada does not need to be licenced in any state. However, collection agencies do.

however for the a person to be sued , an attorney admitted to the bar in that state would be required. Additionally if the Law firm is in the business of collecting debts they 1) are considered a debt collector under federal law adn 20 may require licensure in some states

It does not matter what the Canadian laws are!!! (unless they are trying to collect debt in Canada) If they are trying to collect in the U.S., they MUST follow U.S. laws!!!! How many times does that have to be said???

Guest,
I see what you are saying but you a preaching to deaf ears because this law firm does not operate legally.
No matter how you put it, they will keep on doing what they are doing because they have no morales.
We have all read over and over in this forum the laws, etc. I agree it's as if we are constantly going in circles here but that is mainly because no one can get a straight answer out of this firm - I am sick and tired of "Charline"'s posts telling everyone to call her - WHY will she not answer the simple questions that are asked on this forum? They are not complicated nor do they require a case file - hiding behind a keyboard and monitor is all it is - period!
As you can see she hasn't been on for awhile because it seems her bluff has been called a few times by participants on this forum - what does that tell you?
Answers to the questions that are brought up will remove going around in circles in this forum.

Does "Charline" really exist???
Has anyone ever spoken to this person??
Please remember the infamous Mr. David aka Zack (and numerous other aliases)..... who these days appears to be gagged.... used to frequent this and "the other related thread" on a regular basis with assinine and ridiculous postings! "Charline's" only plus is the ability to string a sentence together!
Do we really want to believe that these "characters" have suddenly changed their ethical values???
While we are at it ....has anyone ever had the opportunity to have contact either verbally or written with the master himself.... Mr. P. Kupferstein... regarding any issue????
THINK ABOUT IT PEOPLE!

Well, I called to Kupferstein and told them my case # and David just replied that there was a lawsuit for $2000 regarding an overdue balance with eWallet Express which I was unaware of. I called eWallet and verified that an overdue balance of $330 had been handed over to Kupferstein and that I needed to settle with them. When I asked for proof or verification form Kupferstein, David just said to have my lawyer call their office. AFter reading all the past entries, does Kupferstein even have the legal power to put a lawsuit against me when they are a law office within Canada? Should I even try to retain a laywer at this point? I definitely want to hear from people who have actually gone up against this Kupferstein.
