(877) 904-1716

Thank you for posting and getting the word out about this scam.  They scared me so bad I gave them my information only because they threatened jail time on a 150 payday loan.  I am a single mom of three and have never been in trouble.  When I calmed down I reasearch them and found out all this.  I had to cancel my bank card and am filing complaints with the FDC, BBB, and the AttGen.  When I called them back and asked for a certified letter stateing what the debt was for, the original amount and the interest charges, Mr. Michael Wright said there was no such thing as a Certified letter and I was making up terminology.  So thanking for your willingness and time to write your complaints.

Please contact your local state attorney general office.  This is a scam. They will try to do the most outrageous things to scare you into giving them money. They have been calling me for months I have at least four different names:Michael Wright,Mark Slater,Curtis Roberts and Amanda McLamb.  The last chick will try to use different names and a new law firm name to trick you but is still a scam.  If they insist it is for real make them prove it. It is an actual law in place every debt collector knows they must give you in  writing any debt they claim is yours.

I have been receiving these phone calls for a while now and stating the same thing you guys have stated in previous posts. I don't know why they are calling or where they are calling from, when you look them up on the web you get nothing. I'm tired of the harassment and the threatening comments. what can be done about this so-called company?? I just received another phone from them this morning wanting Money. They have got to be stopped!!

If this was legit company, they would give you info to try and work it out.  Hope they get caught.  It is unfortunate that people in collections would try and use tactics like this.

recieved call from a guy named "Micael Stater" claimed he was a processor server and to call the Streling and Roberts number. I then spoke with Michael Wright. He left personal info on work number and cell number and used terms like "check fraud" and serving papers to go in front of a judge.  They said it was from a payday loan.  I have only had one pay day loan in my life and have paid it off.  I offered to send them paperwork and they said I was refusing to cooperate and ***g up on me three times.  This is not legit company.  Dont give them time of day

recived a call from someone named Kevin James on my voice mail. so****ing about a bad check that I dont' have any of those.. and to call this number 877 904 1716. well stop calling me you don't scare me and i have a vicious lawyer waiting to tear your company apart for this false threats.. so you have been offically served and next time please stop reading off the script they gave you...lol..You got served!!!!

Received a call on 1/5/2011 from Sterling and Roberts a.k.a. Friedman & Friedman (which is a personal injury law firm) a.k.a. Phillips & Reed they all claim the same thing, check fraud concerning payday loan from BMG Financial and use the same file number. Mr. Andrew Cowlans keeps leaving me messages, only one day he claims to be with the firm Friedman & Friedman and the next day he works for Sterling & Roberts. I called my local Attorney General's Office and am taking action to shut down this operation of fraudulent scam debt collectors.

They did the same thing to be.  Claimed check fraud.  They keep dropping this other girls name I know.  Wondering what is going on and where they are getting there info from.  Kind of scary if they are scamming people.  From now on I am asking for any info to be mailed to me in writing.  Thanks for posting.
