Anybody calling from this # is a Scam.  There is only one employee.  They are not a law office.  Try pressing 1 when you call for law office.  Listen to the mans voice.  Hang up.  Call back and press 2 for the other department and voila!  Same voice answers all departments?   Must have long arms or time travel capablity.  Anyone who comes on here telling you to pay your bills is this juvenile delinquent with a fake name.  Complete scam!!!

Gotta love the morons that come in here chastizing others and telling them to pay their bills! The only way you wind up here is if you received a call from these idiots. So for the people telling everyone else to "pay their bills", what the hell are you doing here in the first place?!!  Not only that but some of these companies steal information or try to collect on debts that have already been paid. So why don't you self righteous f***s keep your lectures to yourselves.

Got a voice mail on my cell phone from a "Christy Harris" claiming to be calling from Bronstein. Shultz and Harris. She stated I was a person of interest in a fraud case and it was imperative that i return her call in the next 24hrs and then gave a case number. (like it was a court case number)  I am not now nor have I ever been a "suspect in a fraud case . I will return their call to inform them that I'am filing a complaint with the Indiana Attorney General's office. Also some how they got my 89 year old grandmother's phone number and harressed her until she gave them  my cell  number.

Hey both of you "honestly pay your debt you owe" AND "WHO"S TRICKING WHO"...think before you speak crap!  Yes its is the responsibility of these people to pay the debts back.  However, they do not have the right to cause anyone to commit suicide or mental anguish and threatening to put a warrant out for their arrest or any other sort of nasty threats.  There ARE better ways to collect the damn money, going to those extremes will cause you a lawsuit! People DO have the right NOT to be harassed or threatened in such nasty manners!   I bet if the shoe was on YOUR foot you would complain too!  And those people who have taken out loans and couldn't pay them back??  Did you ever stop to think that something may have happened where they couldn't have paid it back and wanted to? Then never got a phone call or letter from the debt collector? Yea, another stupid comment from someone else who thinks that some people take loans out just to screw others over. Not to mention, you both have overlooked identity theft as well from these fools!  Not the brightest comment anyone has made honoring these jack***es! And "responder"...i have a family too, but I don't need to STEAL from others to do it! End of that story not so mart one! If these debt collectors want their money...they can call THEMSELVES instead of having a phony attorney call!

i got a call yesterday from a guy at this lawyer place. he said i have a warrant (after calling my parents house!) and that i had to pay everything off otherwise i would go to jail for fraud. WRONG! after i gave him my info (bank card number, drivers license, and verified my social) he wanted to take my whole next paychecks he said that i owed like 2000 and some odd dollars. well i called the place my loan was through the gal was mad and told me that this is NOT true she stated that they NEVER use lawyers that they take people to court themselves. she also said they have been getting numerous calls regarding the exact same thing i was telling her. she also told me that there would never be a warrant issued becuase it is a civil matter not a criminal matter and that if there was any FRAUD it would be if i had used someone else's check when i took out the loan not my own which WAS NOT the case i used all my info to take the loan out no one elses. guess this guy is going to be pretty pissed when he finds out at the end of the week that i shut down my bank card. i also alerted all the credit bureus. the two companies i talked to said that this is absolutely for sure a scam. they try to freak you out (which i did) to get your identity and your money. if you get this call IGNORE them dont freak out if you do give out your info cancel your bank card alert the credit bureus, your local law enforcement and your attorney general. no one needs this crap in their life! they are just a bunch of scammers trying to do horrible things and ruin people lives. and not only that but i bet they wouldnt like it if the tables were turned and it was them in this situation.

First of all, many of the payday loan companies share their information with bottomfeeder collectors or other PDls who have NO connection with the person who borrowed the money and many times aren't even located in the United States, but they are using bogus US phone #s.  They will call and use semi-legal jargon and official-sounding names to scare people into sending them money.  If someone calls you with such a line, do NOT admit to owing a debt over the phone; tell them it is Federal law (and it is) that when a collection agency contacts you, they have a certain amount of time to send you something in writing about your (supposed) debt.  I'm willing to bet you never, ever get a letter.  And in any case, I wouldn't give anyone a nickle based solely on a telephone call!!

I just have a few things to say, I am bothered by the fact that it is some real live idiots posting on this sight wether you take out a payday loan, owe a debt to whomever it does not give you them the right to call your home and threaten you with warrents for your arrest and call your home day and night what attorney office you know works after 5-6 PM thats # 1 and how can they just assume that someone has committed fraud, I have been a victim of identity theft in the past granted that my credit is not all that great but it doesn't mean that people can't use your info in other ways. It's ludacris that some people can just say all you have to do it pay your bills, you never know what a persons situation is, I have been trying to research this company because I too have been contacted out of the blue I never taken out a payday loan and I informed him of that I also have requested that they send me more information regarding this matter so that I can contact this company he told me that he could fax it to me I don't have a fax send it to me in the mail and I'll get it taken care of with the company you claim I owed that was not good enough so I am not sure if this company is legit or not what's a person to do yes people should pay there bills if they rightfully owe them and sometimes people fall on hard times you never know but it's not excuse to threaten people, and I understand that collection companies have a job to do but dam for real if your just that legit why is it so hard to get them to give you information that should rightfully be entitled to.

Man Wins $1.5 Million After Receiving Racist Debt-Collection Calls
By Jeff Mays on Jun 2nd 2010 11:15AM

http://www.bvblackspin.com/2010/06/02/man-win ... collection-cal/

A debt-collection agency claimed that Allen Jones owed a meager $200 on a credit card bill, and they intended to collect it by any means necessary. Instead, it may end up costing them more than $1.5 million.

Over the course of a few months, Advanced Call Center Technologies of Dallas called Jones several times and left harassing and racist messages:

"This is your mother******* wake-up call you little lazy a** b****," WFAA reported a collector as saying in one message.

"Get your mother******* n****r a** up and go pick some mother******* cotton fields," said another collector.

The calls came at all times of the morning and night and allegedly included a sexual comment about Jones' wife. The worst part of the abuse is that Jones, who is African American, said he had paid the bill already.

"This shouldn't be tolerated. Nobody should have to experience what I had to experience," Jones said.


The messages made all the difference, said Mark Frenkel, one of Jones' attorneys. "If we did not have tapes, no one would ever believe that this happened."

A Dallas County jury awarded Jones $50,000 for mental anguish and $1.5 million in punitive damages, and he deserves every penny. Maybe the verdict will send a message to the abusive collection agencies out there that take advantage of people by threatening them or calling them so often that it amounts to psychological warfare.

Some debt collectors also lie about the ramifications of not paying a debt. In one such case, a woman committed suicide after being told that authorities had been contacted about the debt she owed. In another instance, a New Mexico man sued Verizon Wireless after a debt-collection agency threatened to blow up his house over a $308 bill.


The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act forbids some of these dirty practices, but some debt agencies still call family, friends and individuals' places of employment about their debts.

Unfortunately, some of these bottom-feeding agencies also tack on extra fees to the debts that may be owed. They also have a habit of harassing people for debts that have already been paid or can no longer legally be collected. According to the AP, the Federal Trade Commission receives more complaints about debt collectors than any other industry.

More legal protections need to be put in place to shield consumers from these greedy agencies. The way in which these agencies constantly sell the debt to other agencies should be limited, because it forces consumers to go through the process of disputing incorrect debts time and again.

Consumers also should understand their rights when it comes to debt collection. For example, you can stop the harassing calls by sending the agency a certified letter stating that you no longer wish to be contacted about the debt in question. You also have the right to dispute the debt and ask for proof that you actually owe the debt. Finally, consumers have the right to negotiate a settlement.

When it comes to debt collectors, and your finances in general, knowledge is truly power.

"This is absolutely, without a doubt, the most egregious collection case I've ever seen," said Jones' other attorney, Dean Malone. "We made a statement, and the statement is we will not tolerate abusive debt collectors."

This is a scam.  I had already paid back my loan years ago and have evidence.  There is no need to fax personal information to a company.  This is not the proper system for debt collection in the first place.  No attempt to collect has ever been made in writing....because....there is no legitimate debt to collect. Call your attorney general.  A debt collection agency also may not threaten you with criminal suits, which is what this "company" did to me over the phone.

WHO'S SCAMMING WHO? That is the big question, on one side you have people that take out multiple loans(THAT ARE ONLY TWO WEEK LOANS), on the other side you have COLLECTION AGENCIES that have been said to use tactics that are not compliant with F.D.C.P.A LAWS, People should consider that if you pay your loans off under the terms provided you would never be contacted by any type of COLLECTION AGENCY. But if you do not some agency if not Bronstein, Shultz, and Peterson,  will contact you, thats just the facts to these matters. So instead of all the excusses, and complaining of being contacted, just start paying your loans or just do not borrow the money at all and you will not have to waste your time putting sinceless things on the internet. Last but not least who would want to scam a person THAT HAS BAD CREDIT AND DON'T PAY THERE LOANS, would be beyound me, so if someone could explain that on this web page i will be waiting for that ANSWER.

Who really have tricks a COLLECTION COMPANY or PEOPLE that trick company's into giving them loans then close there same bank account that money was placed into TWO WEEKS EARLIER??????? I mean some times these peple do not follow all the rules to the T, but if all people that take out loans was honest, then I doubt these people would think the only way I can get these people to pay us our money back is to make it seem as an extreme situation just to get people to call and pay there bills.

Why is it that the only people that try complaining is the peple that OWE some type of debt, stop slandering this company becuase you think that makes everything okay on you stealing money from these company's, they also have families to take care of, they buy deliquent debt most of the time from company's that have to go out of business from to many people like you all that don't pay their bills, if you paid your bills from the start you would not have to hear from anyone, and further more if they don't call you on it someone will. who's really a SCAM a registered company with the state and better business burea, or a person that takes out multiple payday loans(THAT ARE TWO WEEK LOANS) and emediately close there checking accounts so the company that gave you the money can not get there money back. So you should think on that for a while and tell yourself if i was in their shoes what would i do call these people that owe money from getting a loan or just let them go keep doing the same thing to different loan company's, and run to the internet to put false information on line so people can keep feeding into it. Further more think about it if they call you they already have your information why would they need anything else, also why would they STEAL THE IDENTITY of people that don't pay there bills, you don't have any GOOD CREDIT for them to steal.

IDENTITY THEFT~~~~ SCAM!!  .......Bronstein, Shultz and Peterson is scam. Do NOT give these people the time of day. I think they are trying to pull identity theft. I owed a payday loan place Money and More which is now out of business. I do owe money to Money and More but this company is not an authorized collection company for them. I was threatened with law suits so I payed them with a debit card over the phone which they told me they also needed my driver license number. 2 days later I get a call from "Doug Manning" says he got a memo on his desk that credit card companies are declining payment (it cleared my bank fine). And says that he wants me to dispute the charge and give him a "check by phone". Well... That sounded fishy to me right off the bat. So now they have my debit card#, my diver license # and now they want my bank routing and account#. Not going to happen, I have my bank investigating..

Just becuase a agency buying debt honestly that may have had alot of accounts or consumers that have paid is it there fualt, only thing that company can do is move on after you tell them or show them that you paid your loan. Money and More on the other hand this is very bad that you would not have better records that would prevent honest consumers. I think the problem is you all are looking at this person as an attorney and he is not or has he protrayed to be an attorney. Who would want to steal the identity of people that do not pay their loans or bills would be beyound us all, keep this real this is everyones life, people that owe and do not owe loans, and people that honestly make a living from collections practices that should be done within the FDCPA and STATE LAWS, we should not crucify them for others(loaning institute) short handlings.

Can someone tell the truth to the matter at hand after real research on this firm Bronstein, Shults, & Peterson L.L.C they have not had any law suits they are not established in New York State and have not been sued by that state or being sued by that state, this sound as if you all just should not have taken out your loans if you did not desire to pay them back and under the law your responsible to pay them back, these company's do have the right within the law of each state can come after you for there money.

Bronstein Shultz and Peterson is registered as an LLC in Kokomo, Indiana, as of 3/1/2010.  They are scam artists involved in a Ponzi scheme with the busted company called Money & More, which is being investigated by the Utah County prosecuter's office:'

http://heraldextra.com/news/local/article_ab7 ... da9abcd444.html

I believe that either Money & More illegally sold people's information to Bronstein Shultz and Peterson Or ARE Bronstein Shultz and Peterson.  Regardless, these guys are going to be busted ASAP as the FBI has been notified in addition to attorneys generals offices in MN and IN.  

If you have been contacted by Bronstein Shultz and Peterson, please contact your attorney general ASAP.
