Hoffman Weinberg & O'brien

This company's conduct is CRIMINAL!!! They called claiming that we had a debt. They wouldn't explain what the debt was or where it originated from. When asked to send proof in writing of said debt, they said they would send info, but never did.. The phone number they called from just rings & rings, but no one answers, & when we finally found a number that had voice mail, no one ever called back. Then, GET THIS, we started getting $75.63 taken out of our checking account every month that we DID NOT AUTHORIZE!! And to make matters worse, they were doing it as a Point of Sale Purchase, which means that whomever got our debit card number, was entering it in EVERY MONTH so the only way we could stop it was to cancel our card & get a new one (for a replacement fee of $25)!! We are currently, with the help of our bank, trying to recoup some of our losses but we don't expect any satisfaction. My advice to anyone these shyster dirt bags contact is to direct them to your attorney & do not deal ... Read more

This company is a fraud and anyone who receives a contact by them should record it and let them know you are doing so. If they leave a message on your answering machine, then record it. Then contact an attorney who deals with consumer protection rights. They are liable for misrepresentation and if you can prove it, then we can get shut them down. Hopefully enough people will complain to end their practices. If you have any saved or recorded confrontations with them, let me know. I'd like to get a class action lawsuit against these bottom dwellers.

This company is a scam, They buy old debt for pennies on the dollar that are out of SOL and then try and collect them. What you need to do when you get a call from these people is file a complaint with the FTC, and your states Attorney Generals office. The more complaints against them, they may eventually be shut down. I had dealings with this company over a year ago, calling my home and my husbands family and threating to have me arrested and took to jail. Now they are starting again. Also you can contact BudHibb and e-mail him and let him tell you what this company is all about.

I received a call from a lady approximately 3months ago. She stated she was with blagh, blagh blagh....So i contacted an attorney to help me out with my bills. Today 5-12-09 i received a call from 716-597-0889 Timothy Peters he wasnt nice and was threatning me it sounded like he was reading from a read along. He said i dont think you have an attorney. He is offering to settle this account of 1,289.00 for 300.00 IS THAT POSSIBLE. I tried to call the number listed on my phone for about 2 hours and it just rings busy Then i got on my computer and looked up the number and 716-896-1828. And that number rings and rings. On the Voicemail it says that i have less than 5 hours before something happens. i was trying to contact these people to see what is going on because i still havent received any paperwork either. So if anyone has any information on this please respond so i can know what to do. i dont know what to do! Thanks!

For the past month I have requested documentation of the settlement offer they proposed. On good faith I gave them a payment. On 3 spereate occassions they claimed the letter had been sent and they would resend all paperwork. During the last call, I was informed the settlement paperwork would be sent priority mail with return receipt. I have yet to receive it. Beware!

I live in Arizona and this "law office" is in New York. This office has called me repeatedly at work after being told each time I am not allowed personal calls while working. The respresentative was curt and rude and obviously has no knowledge of the laws governing debt collection.
