BGM Associates - B.G. & M. Associates - BGM Financial Group - Tamara Easton - Scam Collection Agency. Fake Collection Agency. Corona California
BGM Associates has violated the FDCPA and keeps harassing me for debt that I have not acknowledged. B.G. & M. Associates, aka BGM Associates, aka BGM FINANCIAL GROUP is a scam collection agency. BGM Financial is a scam collection agency and a fake collection agency. There is no record found with the California Secretary of State when you search for their business name.
They have been reported to the California Attorney General office and the FTC. The rep who I spoke with is Tamara Easton. They mentioned that Edward T. Weber is the client. I’m starting to wonder about their reputation and whether or not Edward T. Weber Law Firm is a Scam.

It has been reported that I hired BG&M to collect debts. That is not true. BG&M is a debt-buyer, who buys accounts and attempts to collect on their own accounts. The are not a scam and they are not a fake company. They are a real company that buys real accounts. They are not "doing business" as me, and I am not "doing business" as them. They have retained ME to assist and to represent THEM. However, my role is limited to preparing and sending demand letters, settlement letters, and if necessary to file civil lawsuits. However, I am only licensed in California and I can only file lawsuits in California. If lawsuits need to be filed in another state, they are handled by other law firms and not me. Further, no one from my office makes any phone calls attempting to collect debts. Any calls that are made come from my client, not me or my law firm staff. My clients and their staff are not authorized to say they are from my law firm, not authorized to say I am THEIR client (because I'm not), and in no way are authorized to say or do anything that might be a violation of state or federal law in their attempts to collect on their accounts. If they do, it is without my knowledge or authorization and if I find out otherwise, or hear information or complaints otherwise, I will look into it and take care of the matter myself, including firing them as a client if I have to.
Also, I work with a gentleman named John Alarcon who is not an attorney, who does not tell people he is an attorney, and who is not partners with me. Information to the contrary is simply not true.
I encourage anyone with issues about any of this to contact me directly, and I am always willing to discuss and address any concerns anyone might have with regard to them.

Beware this business of John Alarcon. They say they are lawyers but fail to tell you they are not licensed to practice law in California as they probably cannot pass the California Bar! "John F. Alarcon" is the main perpetrator misrepresenting him self and his services as a California lawyer! I can't even look him up as a para-legal at best he is just a secretary!
"John F. Alarcon" claims attorney Edward T. Weber is retained for his office. "John F. Alarcon" went as far as using real judges names in threatening text. We will see how happy the judge will be when he reads my complaint and see's his name being used for threats by fraud!
I will file complaints with the State Bar and the Better Business Bureau. DO NOT FALL VICITIM TO THIS FRAUD!
