Found that address on a different site.   Someone by the name of Frank Trippi, a one-time pawn shop owner was involved too.

Don't really know their current address.  They change names so often.   DM is a pretty ruff crew.   Total debt scammers.   Stay away from them.  Don't answer their calls do not give them ANYTHING.

THIS SO-CALLED LAW FIRM CALLED ME JAN 2014, WITH A 72 HR PAY OR ??? NOTICE. WELL I CALLED MICHAEL DRAKE BACK AND THREATEN HIM. THE CALLS STOP. I DO OFFER FREE INFO, ON HOW TO PROTECT YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK FROM THESE JOKERS.THE INFO, IS FREE......... IF YOU WANT TO DONATE ONCE YOU SEE MY INFO IS TRUE THAT WILL BE FIND,  BUT NOT REQUIRED..    602-449-0263  or johnconner@atheist.com

I received a call stating that they were gonna suspend all state and federal taxes associated  with my social....I googled DM & Associates and nothing came up but alot of bad info on them that other people were posting.

I, too, have rec'd calls from this number AND other numbers very similar to this one.  Because I am a brain-injured senior citizen, I could neither confirm nor deny what was said to me.  I appreciate learning this information; I also have a rep from my credit union helping me deal with this problem.  I hope EVERYONE gets the truth about scams like this one.  

They said the same thing about a jc penny card i had and that it is a fredral affiance and that I could get jail time.

I received two phone messages from Michael Drake at DM & Associates saying that action is being filed against me. I never returned the call, but will now report them. The two numbers that were given for return calls are: 888-255-6597; 800-340-0737 x101.

I have received calls from Mr. Allen Roma from 716-210-6204 and 716-210-6217. THIS IS A SCAM PEOPLE!!! Do not under any circumstances negotiate with these people. Mr. Roma claimed I owed a payday loan from Loan.com and closed my bank account without paying. He stated it was a federal offense. After doing a lot of research on the phone numbers (888-428-1999) and address given by this company (1615 Pine Avenue, Niagra Falls NY) it is evident this is not legitimate. Multiple people have reported this address to be an abandoned building. I made the mistake of almost setting up a payment plan with these people before doing my research as I do have some outstanding debts. After I did not return their phone calls, Mr. Roma contacted me using a voice changing machine claiming to be David Mills from my local commissioner's office. He said he had received a case from P&R Associates and before he processed was giving me a call to settle with the company. I could tell it was Mr. Roma's voice has he has a distinct accent. I even told him I would be calling the office to confirm his identity. When I did, I was told there is no one by that name that worked there. I then had a friend call on my behalf to discuss this with Mr. Roma and he denied it was him that called. He was still very persistent that I owed this debt. I am in the process of filing a complaint with my local sheriff's office and will be doing other research as these people have all of my information! These scam artists are very good at making you fearful and seeming pretty legit. But if you do the research you will find out it is not so. I am at the point these days where I am willing to let someone serve me with papers before I give one cent to them if I am not certain it is a legitimate debt and that I am really paying it off with the right people.

I am trying to send these guys a letter, but they wont give me their information, can you post the fax, email and addresses you have.  

Thanks.

People, these scum bags are illegal frauds. report them to the BBB, FTC and the AG's office. In time these scum b@gs will be arrested and shut down, but DO NOT PAY THEM A DIME, THEY ARE AN ILLEGAL OPERATION.

Got a test message and said they were filing a county complaint, not sure what they are filing. using different telephone numbers to send the text and to return a call to them.

I got a friend who was text messaged a 1 800 # for me to get a hold of and i called them a michael drake answered and said i had 3 days to pay 568.86 for a fraudulent check written for a check advance from a bank i use to bank at and if i didn't pay in 3 days they were going to file a class e felony on me. wtf do i do i keep hearing this is a scam and here in idaho 4 yrs is our statues o_f limitation

These people called me and even gave me a case number. When I did not respond they didi not send me anything else nor did they call me back. BEWARE, I have had my identity stolen before and this sounds like another person trying to get my information for illegal use.

So debt police how long have you worked for these charlatans and scammers?? You probably work for them a company that is scum of the earth!!  You should be proud!!!

I suspicion USB Mediations, DM and associates, PR collections( also1615 Pine Avenue Niagara Falls, NY 14301), Friedman and Associates, Attorney Scott Frxx National Check Fraud are all working together to scam people out of their money by using fear tactics.   My attorney sent someone out to check USB mediations and 2809 Wherle Dr., suite#3 Williamsville, NY 14221 does not exist.  Fake address.  Attorney Christopher Hxxx and Coleen Georxx do not exist at all.  SCAM SCAM!!
Attorney Scott Frxx had the audacity to use the National Check Fraud's page as his own.  That is internet fraud.

Turn them into the FBI and FTC.  Write your local attorney General.  Get a debt harassment attorney and go after them.

Peaches this is very highly illegal.  Going through a third party.  You need to get an attorney.  They have an USA address!  You can get them!!

Just called them back and they were very evasive, and rude.  I asked several times for a debt validation letter.
They said they would send it to my email.  I said no I don't want an email.  I want something I can show my attorney.
I bet two to one they won't send it.  USB Mediations just had this loan (Boulevard Cash).  They were not real.  My attorney sent someone out to verify 2809 Wherle Dr. Suite #3 Williamsville, NY 14221 It does not exist.  Therefore, I can only conclude that these scammers are working together.  USB mediation knew I was on to their scam and handed the same loan over to PR collections.
Caller: PR collections

Mrs. Smith is at it again......called my brother looking for payment on a bill from Money and More.  I am so thankful for this site and the feedback that has been given.  Demanded payment immediately and sent a very convicing collection document.  But my ears went up when I couldn't find a legit web address.  And everything surronding P&R came up with negative comments.

For Mrs. Smith et al......move on and get a legit job.

I been recieving calls form another number but the company have the same address.

The number is 888-295-3814 and fax #716-299-0413

They is also calling my job and faxing verification letter to them trying to get my current information.

Doubt it is.  No infor on who owes what to whom.  Call the police.

Susan Daniels and Philip Connor of D&M Associates call me and leave messages alleging I have attempted to defraud a financial lending institution and or claim that I have a derogatory check with their client (what ever that means).  Once they used my name and another time they did not.  I have not yet replied and probably will not.  I'm sure this is a scam of some sort.

MR LOGAN-Yeah Right left a mssg on my phn telling me he was investigating a crime-gave a "case" number-also called my sister n law-told her he was a da -told her I was in trouble -gave her this "case" number and lead her to believe if I did not call "by mon" I would go to jail--she was scared by this joker but realized I had never broke the law so this must be a mistake-was still shaken up by it----who are these people? I filed a complaint with my state atty g's office and the FTC-as well as with my attny-won't hold my breath-judging by all the complaints I found on the web-no one can stop these clowns---they need to get  life -how pathetic to have to make yourself feel important by impersonating attny's ect---I have no idea what debt they think I repeat-think I owe----thank the lord for pre paid legal---

someone calls from 888-428-1999, saying they a going to put me in jail for bank fraud

It's a collection agency.

someone calls from 888-428-1999, they say i fraud a bank ??

They are not attorneys, nor do they work for any attorney, but nice try planting a message on here trying to scare people. This is a man and a woman who use all kinds of fake names when they call people, but they are not even a legitimate collection agency. When you call the agency they claim to be calling on behalf of, they will say they have never heard of them or contracted them to collect their debt.

Here is their information:

File a complaint!! Bill collectors are not allowed to lie to you or threaten you with police or prison (i.e. saying you committed “fraud”). It sounds to me like they are the ones committing fraud because they were trying to scare you into giving them money! Write them letters and file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and the NY Attorney General! Buffalo States Atty. Ofice @716-853-8400.
