ok, the number is a Sprint phone number from Buffalo, NY. As far as I know, Sprint only handles cell phones now, they dont do landline phones anymore. I could be wrong on that though. But its from Buffalo, NY, which is the debt collector's hive so to speak. From what I have seen there isnt one reputable legitimate CA from the Buffalo area.....

The next time he calls, inform him that you ares till waiting for the collection letter he has to send you by law within 5 days of the initial contact. Also ask him for the address. If he refuses, inform him that you have a right to that information and that refusing to provide it is illegal and violates your rights.

If you still get nothing and he still refuses to provide the info then simply ignore him and hang up on him every time he calls.

I'm replying to sm this scumbag called me @ work today I had the same experience with him and he went a bit further saying he is the DA and they're filing criminal charges against me. When I got home I did some reseach on them and contacted the DA's office in Buffalo NY to file a complaint and also this person is misrepresenting himself, he is a low life scum.

I just got a call at work from a woman with the same network, the number she gave me to call back actually goes to a house phone - not any business. She said my bank hired her to file criminal charges against me - it was odd because I still bank with them and of course my bank knows nothing. I am filing a complaint today.

well when they called me it was a local san diego, ca number. well i did some research, and bonnie duminas IS the san diego DA. well i called her office directly (thanks google) and i spoke with her admin assistant. i asked her if ms duminas called me, she said she has no idea what im talking about, i told her the story of whats going on and she promptly took all the information they needed for DA network, she said she will look into this matter and get back to me. she even said that the DA will NEVER call anybody for anything unless its something major, and highly doubts this is.
im waiting to hear back from my REAL DA'S office

I happen to be having the same problem. This man keeps calling me to saying i owe money. I couldn't pay so they told me i had to pay by a certain day or they'll contact the district attorney and i will have to go to court. I yole them i wasn't giving my money to just anybody. They emailed me b/c i wanted to see proof, but their letter was so unproffessional and had numerous mispellings for being a professional company. They are so rude and pushy too!!

I got a call from a man at the DA Network in New York (716) 725-0348 who threatened that federal charges were being charged at me for a payday loan I never took out. They asked for my banking information. I told them why wasn't I sent a collection letter in the mail. He didn't answer. He put his supervisor on the phone, a Valerie Mills, and she stated they are lawyers represented a company. I told them I never had a loan, they wouldn't listen and offered settledment. I told them even if I did owe, I wouldn't give them anything over the phone. I asked if they would send me an email, which they did and told me it would be on letterhead. They sent a letter, however, it was just a plain typed letter anybody could have wrote. There was an address listed, which I am researching. What should I do?

I think it would be a good idea to get an address and send them a debt validation letter. The least you can do is take steps to get this taken care of properly even if this company isn't. You will need to document everything in case you take them to court or they take you.

Check with the District Attorney's office in Buffalo New York and also with the Better Business Bureau and you will get their address as well as their phone number. You will find that they have several complaints against them.

I have been recieving calls from these people for a while. Apparently it was from a internet cash loan from 2006...They have called 2 of my relatives constantly: telling them that I have 4 bad checks and charges will be filed against me. First of all I do not have 4 bad checks, I found out it was due to ACH withdraws from the this loan. After I spoke with these people they were getting angery with me because I requested something in writing. Then the guy told me I needed to talk to the DA...A man named Jason Chambers got on the phone announced him self as DA Jason Chambers. And he got angry with me because I requested this debt in writing and hungup. I did finally recieve an email from these guys and it was merely a word doc...Something I could of typed up with a settlement offer. So now they're still calling me constantly and threating to pursue legal action against me for the NSF ACH charges like I wrote 4 bad checks. And then he called saying that he has spoke with the clerk of court in my county and advised them to "hold off til the end of the business day" before we take action. What a bunch of losers. Has anyone been taken to court by this company yet? Or is everyone just getting a bunch of threating phone calls? It would be interesting to know if this company is actually pursuing legal action on anyone....

Well as for myself I recieved a call from this company too. I did not believe that they could actually do anything about me repaying my loan, in fact i flat out ignored them. They gave me every opportunity to pay them but i didint have any money. I am now at this point being garnished. I no for a fact that some companies are scams but the DA Network made a believer out of me. Advice....if you took out a loan just pay it back.

I was called by this company and told that a friend of mine might need their assistance and that they were the DA office. They then called my friend and said the same thing but that if she does not pay within 3 days - she would go to jail. They said that they have mailed her numerious letters with no response. She is still at the same place as before and no letter has even been delivered.

It did not sound right to me so I told my friend to close her account since she gave them bank information to pull the money. We called them back and they back pedaled on the fact they said they were the DA. We asked for any information on the letters they claim they sent and they have nothing but the Bank account information that the money was sent to.

The problem with all this is that my friend had paid the loan years ago and now can not prove anything. I think we need to call the Buffalo NY DA and let them know that this company is making claims of working in the DA's office and that they are going to arrest you if you do not pay immediately.

By the way - I have names of the people we have spoken to and the orginal person Valerie Mills no longer works there.... she most likely is running fast to get away from that place or will find herself in BIG Trouble!

Mr. O'Reilly is very rude and loves to argue. Mrs. Campbell never calls back.

i agree most people that work for these places use aliases which is highly illegal. if you file a lawsuit against the company the collector should be liable for part of the suit. if a collector uses an alias the company would be completley responsible since you can not prove that collector worked there. i would be careful with this company! they sound like a bunch of lowlife scums..

Quote:

No it isn't, as long as the alias is consistent and their true identity can easily be identified by the company. It's standard practice and highly advisable, too, given the situation.

For a case example, see Lewis v. Acb Business Services, Inc., et al, 135 F.3d 389 (6th Cir. 1998) - specifically Section B entitled:

"B. Use of the pseudonym 'M. Hall'"

I too have been contacted by the DA Network, and they have nothing to do with any DA's office that I can tell. At Manta.com, they have a report on them, They are in Buffalo NY York, are a collection Agency, have 7 employees and make $320,000.00 a year. They are problably collecting Pay Day Loans or Loans of some kind. I took a paralegal course to understand the law better, and I have learned this. You can send them a letter at the post office, Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, will cost you about 6 dollars or so. Write this in your letter, "Please do not contact me by telephone any more, as is my right under the Federal Debt and Collection Laws. " Also ask them for your case or File number, and any information on this matter they have. Here is the address :
1249 Hertal Ave
Buffalo NY 14216
716-725-0346
I'll not a Lawyer, If you need help, go see a Lawyer, get a referral form a friend, or call The State Bar Assoc. in your state, or Goggle online, and get a referral from them. You can call The Attorney General in your State and file a complaint with them. Don't ignore them, they have Lawyers too and can probably take Legal action against you,so take every threat seriously always. Good Luck and Gods Speed to you.
