John Alarcon is the Manager of the Law Offices of Edward T. Weber. The attorney licensed in the State of California is Edward T. Weber.  Mr. Weber oversees all aspects of John Alarcon, or "John F. Alarcon". If a licensed attorney is needed or wanted the Law Offices of Edward T. Weber will be retained.

BG & M Funding aka BG and M Associates is run by Barbara O?Neill,  and is only one office of a larger organization.  It is directly connected to another collection agency in Temecula, which goes by the name of Smythe, Stone and Crum aka PLS Associates, which is run by a questionable character be the name of Ahmad Zubair Amozgar (he just got ?promoted to his own office a year ago).  Most recently, another office, also connected, called Clark and Associates, opened just down the road in Murrieta, California, and is managed by James Robert Cork.  Paperwork and training manuals for all three offices have been obtained and all cross-reference in many instances.  All the aforesaid collection agencies branched off from a LV & V Funding aka LV and V Associates, all run by Bernardo Gomez aka Bernie Gomez.

Further, the name of an attorney that these offices have been using, at least for letterhead purposes, have turned up at all offices.  I spoke with this attorney today and he confirmed that he ?represents? all three offices but claims he did not know the extent of the illegality involved.  While I do not believe this attorney?s claim of ignorance, out of courtesy I have agreed to withhold his name, at least until such time as my investigation is complete.  I will say that the contact person for his law offices, per the documents produced from the various aforesaid collection agencies, all list a John Alarcon as the contact person.  My research indicates that John Alarcon was involved in at least two lawsuits wherein he was sued, along with an attorney, for among other things, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, etc.  some of the allegations where that Mr. Alarcon falsely represented himself as an attorney, and was actually a signatory to attorney-client fee agreements.  Mr. Alarcon was served these lawsuits  in June of 2011 at 495 East Rincon Ave., #175, Corona, CA?..does this address sound familiar to anybody!!!  Alarcon?s co-defendant, attorney, Raymond Carl Prospero, was disbarred in 2012.  Now Alarcon is the contact person for aforesaid collection agencies.

Alarcon now runs a business called ?Community Law Center? in Corona, CA.  The lawsuits filed against him are in Riverside county, case no.?s RIC 1108501 and RIC 1107045.  He is also prominently mentioned in the disbarment paperwork of Raymond Prospero in 2012.

Two federal lawsuits have also be filed against Bernardo J. Gomez dba LV and V Associates for violations of the FDCPA.  Ahmad Amozgar also has two federal lawsuit filed against him for violations of the FDCPA, one for NLS Associates and one for Direct Resource Capital dba DRCC.

What is clear from all the foregoing is that this is a huge operation, well worth the FTC?s time.  Further, because of the efforts to de-centralize the offices, and to have each manager get their own ?crews?. Along with other evidence we have obtained out of Corona, it is clear that the real owners have had experience with FTC investigative techniques and procedures.

Barbara O'Neill is an experienced scam collector and was previously working at the "Rincon" collection scam as a manager right up till the time that scam was raided by the FTC.  Barbara O'Neill was mentioned several times in the FTC legal pleadings. The address of the location that Barbara O'Neill is now at is 19310 Jesse Dr., Ste. 150, Riverside, CA, 92508.  The name of the company they are operating under is BG & M Associates.  Strangely, the only corporation registered at that address is BG and M Funding, a non-profit corporation, and the agent for service is Bernardo Gomez.  The numbers that this scam collection agency has operated under are 888-318-0250, 866-296-1843, 877-275-9826, 866-238-3846, 866-264-6296, 888-327-7083 and 877-512-7547 (thus far).  If you look up these number, you will find the same horror stories starting in January of 2013 (when BG and M Funding was incorporated in CA) through to the present.

I will post name and addresses of employees in the coming days, along with Barbara O'Neill's address (although it should be noted that her address is public record from the legal pleadings she has filed in the matter of Bruch v. Begley, Riverside case no. RIC 1117805).

To all the legitimate posters out there, please re-post this information and my contact information on as many sites as you can with complaints about BG & M A**. and/or any of the aforesaid numbers.

Fax nor email is legal, neither is a phone call.

there address isnt the 540 hidden valley pkwy they are located in riverside 19310 jesse ln ste 150 riverside ca 92508

Same people is trying same scam on me,my husband warned me about a scam, & it's a good thing I investigated,& it's the same Tamera Easton of BG Associates, my thanks to everybody for all your posts, they are also using # (877)512-7547.

540 Hidden Valley Parkway st suite 106-175
Corona California 92879

I got the same call , called back, when I started to ask questions , they said I was wrong person they were looking for.
Either very bad operations or scam

I got this call today..Same as everyone else and said I was being sued for a credit card from 2005. Weird part was she used my name now and not my maiden name I had at the time of the apparent debt. She said if I confirmed my bday they could tell me who the debt was from. Not knowing better she said it was from a credit card company that I have never heard of. When I told her its not me she told me I was lying because I made payments all on time for a year and then just quit. Not only did she laugh at me she belittled me in every way she could. She also said they had sent me a letter in the mail prior to the phone call stating this was my chance to   clear up my debt. When I told her I never received a letter she said that she expected m me to say that since I dont pay my bills.They gave me a option of making a one  time payment or because of my "bad credit" that I have from not paying my act I could pay 25 percent down and  make 6 payments. I told her I would call back the following day and give her my decesion. I called my friend who is a lawyer and had her to investigate. BoGUs. Don't fall for anything they say. I am going to call her back tomorrow and record the conservation.

i really hate jessica allen tamara easton mike harris tasha white

I just got a call from them and so did people I know asking for me  I CALLED the attorney generals office here in Maine and then I told them do not ever call me or my family or relatives again  They lied to them saying I gave them permission   I plan on filing a complaint with the FTC I get their emails about cases like this and other financial items  They have a case manager who receives the emails and if enough people write they will prosecute

Sounds like scammers - if they refuse to mail (not email or fax) a debt validation letter proving you owe a debt to them - you owe them nothing.  Only shady debt collectors or scammers threaten to arrest someone for debt - which is a civil matter, not criminal, so no, your wife would not be arrested.  

Threatening people with arrest or threatening to serve them at work is a violation of the FDCPA.  As a rule, disability payments are immune from collections; however I would definitely report the callers not only to the Attorney General's office, but also to the FTC and the FBI.  When they call back - and they will - advise them that you know they're scammers, you've reported them and that all calls they make to you or your wife are being recorded on the advice of your attorney (even if you don't have one).

Remember - NEVER pay any caller unless they mail you documentation proving you owe the debt to them.

My wife got s call from BG and M associates today. It was left via voicemail. They said she had s 2 hour window to call a number and refer to a case number. It said they would send a process server after that and after 3 attempts would have her arrested. I called the number they gave and got a voicemail. About 20 minutes later my wife called and got ahold of somebody. They told her if she did not pay a debt we do not remember of $1000 it would go to court and balloon to almost $4000. They told her not to open any bank accounts and that they would sized my disability from her checking account. Not sure what do. I will call the California Attorney General's office and the Idaho Attorney General's office.

Just got a call from 877-275-9826 saying she was calling from National Documents her name was Tasha White sayng this was the second attempt to contact me with legal papers. After the third attempt I would be served either at home or at work. They have called my employment with the same info.

I contacted the Attorney General's office in California and they sent me a letter stating this company is using a California address, but is not in California along w/ a message to not pay them and how avoid fake debt collectors.  I would contact the Attorney General's office in California, may be they can shut down the PO Box mentioned in another post.  I had a nasty confrontation w/ this company and the lady pretty much told me I was dumb and she could do what she wanted. I do have a debt w/ Legacy Visa and they told me they didn't know who this place was even though BG&M States Legacy Visa is their Biggest client, yeah they are going to charge me 1500 more than I owe.  Don't give them money or any financial information.  I asked for a validation letter and they refused to send it to me.  I just called them on the number they left with the phony process server (214.838.9951- Texas number and when you look it up it comes up as a spoof number meaning the call id on my cell is tricked and shows this number so you can't call it back- busy signal only) the other number is 877.275.9826, "Ashley" answered verified my name, I stated I wanted to talk to someone about harassing phone calls, she put me on hold and I think they heard me talking about the scam they are running b/c after 3 mins the line hung up, I guess they don't want to deal w/ me again.

Left a message that they are processors servers and they are coming to my house or job to serve papers from a so called debt from 2009

I got the same phone call from a mike Harris, then the dumb a** calls back 5 minutes later and claims he's mike Jones. What a joke!! I want to sue then for mental anguish!!

...............this is evidently a scam, I hope somebody reports these frauds,.....they said I owe money, but wont tell me to who................I threatened to come to corona, ca. and kick his a**,.......he hung up on me.....if they cant prove who is suing you it is a scam.......................Maverick

Got a cal from a "Tasha White" trying to confirm an address to deliver some court papers. She didn't seem phased when I refused at first. But she hung up quickly when I asked which court had issued the papers. The whole call felt like a scam when my caller ID read "Unknown."

This B.G & M associates has an address of 540 Hidden Valley pkwy, ste 106-175, Corona, CA 92879. phone number 1-866-264-6296 with a fax number 888-327-7083.

The address is at a mailbox place it's a post office box I call the post box place and they said that the guy get a lot of checks... I did of look of investagating on this place it's a scam they tried to screw me but I didn't said them anything....Don't give them money the said they were going to server me paper I said do it... This was in march it never happened don't be fooled....google map the address there is nothing there......

THESE PEOPLE CALL NUMEROUS TIMES EVEN ON SUNDAYS. THEY CALLED ME TWICE TO DAY AND I JUST HELD THE PHONE THEN I CALLED BACK TO SEE WHO THEY WERE. WHEN I GOT SOMEONE ON THE PHONE THE STUPID GUY SAID THEY WERE BGM ASSOCIATES, THEN PUT ME ON HOLD . AFTER A MINUTE OF BEING ON THE PHONE IT JUST HUNG UP... I CALLED AGAIN AND I LAID THEM OUT TRYING TO FIND OUT WHO THEY WERE LOOKING FOR. I TOLD THEM DON'T CALL MY PHONE AGAIN IF THEY ARE GOING TO BE THAT UNPROFESSIONAL WITH STUPIDITY   AND NOT TELL ME WHO THEY LOOKING FOR...

IT'S CALLED BGM ASSOCIATES

I did request a written statement of this debt. They sent me a letter and I am going to FAX this to BBB. And make a complaint. they are saying I owe on a debt that I paid off 3 yrs ago. even the card company said there is no further money owed. they never heard of such a thing as that.

It is a huge scam!!!!!!!!

Got a call yesterday from a "Tasha White" claiming she was from "National Document Servers."  She said they have been trying to serve me with court documents and that I was being sued.  Said they tried 3 times to serve me and I wasn't home.  I got very upset and said, what can i do, who is suing me?  She said she couldn't tell me who was suing me because they were sealed court documents.  She said I needed to call my agent (didn't know I had one, lol) at BMG Associates.  Their number 1-866-238-3846.  She also gave me a case # to reference.  I came home and researched this 866 number to find out its all a fraud.

Shame on these people!  What can we do to report them?!  They should be prosecuted!

Beware!!!

The exact same thing happen to me..do you know more??

I just got a message on my answering machine that stated the same as above.  She said her name was Marie Galvin and gave a case number.  She said she was trying to reach someone I don't know by way of me at my home address.  She stated she represented National Document Services and wanted to deliver sealed legal documents.  They would attempt to deliver 3 times (twice at home and once at work). If they could not deliver then they would consider it a failed attempt to serve legal documents.  When I called the 866-238-3846 number all I got was an answering machine saying it was B G & M Associates.  I left my name and case number before I researched it and found all these similar posts.  Does anyone know what this is?????
