716-210-1341

This is obviously a hoax - don't call them back.

There's a call coming from (716) 210-1341 (Pendleton, NY) every day now! Is there a way to put a stop to this? It's always a pre-recorded message... or a way to determine which company is doing this, if it's not a hoax?

What you need to know?
1. Quadrant = Debt Collectors.
2. Misrepresentation.
-how do you not answer who you are?
-how do you not know the name of the company you work for?
-why won't you give your adress?
-why do you want so much money under 4 hours?
-how can you threaten me with 4x the amount supposedly owed?
-the dates don't add up with my paper statements! ! !

Now I know:
Just when you think the sleaze can’t get any worse, along comes our Buffalo, NY WORST debt collectors to show us there are new and better ways to fleece money from unsuspecting consumers.
This is yet another offshoot of the GIOVE LAW OFFICES, MCKELVEY LAW OFFICES, EVANS LAW OFFICES, & COLLINS LAW OFFICES out of Western New York.
QUADRANT GROUP, LLC, reportedly owned, run and managed by DOUGLAS J. MACKINNON, a name and partner in all of the above including ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT SERVICES and FIRST AMERICAN INVESTMENT has added this organization to the group of bottom-feeder debt collection groups ripping off consumers.
The Love of Money is the Root of Evil
Reportedly being financed (in part) and managed by Daniel Mendez and Reverend Daniel Grant of a Sweet Home Buffalo Church, Quadrant is said to be recycling old accounts from Giove, McKelvey, Evans and Collins Law Offices in the hopes of scraping money off the bones of already dead collection paper. One report stated that the Reverend was even using church funds to help finance the purchases, a report that could not be confirmed. Whenever a church is involved in something like this, you have to wonder whether the motives include fleecing the flock or hiding money from the Feds?
This double-dipping is a favorite of the MacKinnon brothers - they collect on accounts from one law office, then shuffle the papers to another and start the process all over. They figure if they can scare people into paying once, why not do it again?
In the typical mode of these ‘BUFFALO STYLE’ debt collectors, anyone being contacted by QUADRANT GROUP, LLC can safely surmise that:
EVERYTHING THEY TELL YOU IS A LIE.
YOU WILL NOT BE SUED.
YOU WILL NOT HAVE YOUR WAGES GARNISHED.
THEY CANNOT TAKE LEGAL ACTIONS OR
THREATEN GOVERNMENT ACTIONS OVER AN IRS 1099-C FORM.
THEY CANNOT REPAIR OR MAKE CHANGES ON YOUR CREDIT.
THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY AUTHORITY OR LEGAL MUSCLE.
They are con men, with a track record of proven criminal behavior that includes lies, threats, extortion and violation of federal law, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. We found NO licenses or bonds as required in many states and their association with the WORST debt collectors in America is cause for anyone to be VERY cautious and suspicious of them.
As with many other debt collectors associated with these organizations, you can assume that many may have drug and alcohol problems and that many may have criminal records for various offenses such as drug possession, use and distribution.
QUADRANT GROUP, LLC is an infection you want to avoid!
DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM!
NEVER GIVE THEM ANY BANKING OR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION!
TAPE RECORD THEIR CALLS (where legal) AS YOU MAY BE ABLE TO COLLECT ON LAWSUITS!

They leave a recorded message to press 9 to be connected by say it is regarding your social security number of one of the persons in the residence, even if that person doesn't live there anymore.

another unknown caller at it again, i don't answer it, cause i don't know who it is.

Rcvd a call from this "company" at 8:28 AM.  Pre-recorded message saying something to the effect of info regarding the SS# of an Angela M.  Who that is, I have no idea!  It also asked me to press 9.  When I didn't do it, the pre-recorded message started again but the line disconnected a few seconds after that.

I got a call at 8 58 am from a Katlyn Campbell from QAR. Told to call her at 716-210-1341. The longest call I have ever recieved saying that they have checked all my records and I haven't been involved with anything as severe as this. Said even someone I knew filed on me. Was told to call and their assistant would pull them out of any and all meetings to take my call. If it was the police I would have been talked to or brought in for questioning if it was as severe as they said. I knew from the way the caller sounded it was debt collection. I paid all my bills for a year after my work injury. I am still paying for the rest of my life physically for the injury. I have no money then and still. Anyone who gets a call like mine do not identify yourself or give out any personal information.

This area code but different number has called me before but each time a message is left it is a different company.  This time the message was:  this is Ms White from QAR and we are leaving this message for "my name" regarding a complaint being filed against social security(she had the last four ss number) and the complaint is being filed in and she listed th country in which I lived.  She said that she needed a call back today from me or my authorized attorney. I have had this happen to me on a couple of differnt occassions where someone claims that I owe them money that I don't owe and they threaten me with arrest, law suits, garnishments,etc..  I don't even return the calls. I just take the number down, look it up on the web and then erase the message.  Who are these people?  They are cruel.

I received a call from QAR appologizing for offending me. I have never heard or been offended by this company. She claimed she received 15 faxes about personal information about myself and would like me to call back no matter what so she can appologize.

THIS IS A SCAM DO NOT CALL THIS NUMBER BACK!

I received a call from both evans laws and quadrant LLC evans laws says that they have information about me with related to my social security number. quadrant LLC say that I should or my attorney contact them as soon a possible. I knew it was a hoax when they mention that I call with my attorney because I dont know of any collect agency would say call with your attorney. I also got a call over the summer saying that the police was on there way to my home to arrest me for fraud. I did not call back so now I am screen every call that comes in. the number they told me to call back is (866)788-0624 ext 228 the person name is Mr. Evans.

Got a call from this number, says their is a problem with my social sec number and that i need to call or have my atty call. This is that QAR program, I hate them!

Was going to sue me, Had 12 to 14 court documents, he was going to call my employement, have a jugement against me to garnish wages

I got a call from Mr Washington telling me I am under investigation and am mandated to call him at 716-210-1341 ext 216. He is processing 12-14 complaints against me and I only have 24 hours to respond. He wants to verify employment and assets....I called the number after work hours, got a voice mail saying QAR.
Sounds like a sleazy debt collector using scare tactics.

Kaylin called my phone three times.  She hung up on my machine after leaving a partial message twice before finally "apologizing and explaining herself" in the third mesasge.  She stated someone had filed a negative statement against me (15 documents) and that she had investigated me and it didn't seem right.  She asked that I call and said this was so severe that she would be pulled from any meetings to handle my response.  The number left was 716-210-1341 ext 215. She called from 716-691-7473.  Needless to say, I will not be responding to this message.

Kept saying that a Muhammed had listed our art gallery as his place of employment.  I asked them to please stop calling as no one by that name had ever worked here in 15 years. He said that he didn't believe me, and would need to owner to call him back at 716.210.1341.
Yeah right, like I'm going to bother the owner with this.

Received a call from this number threatening to file suit against me if I did not return their call.

A Google search of this number, 716-210-1341, turned up the following as well as many other reports of the fraudulent nature of this group.

716-210-8442 calls and leaves no message.

Received a message on my cell phone that I needed to call them back regarding my SS#. Phone # was 716- 446-1070.

Got a call this morning, made the mistake of answering it.  She asked for "Tori" and not my full name like companies usually do.  Really sneaky. I thought it might be someone I knew. Nope.  She said it was regarding an old
acct I had with Chase (which I knew had been charged off) and I told her I'm doing a bankruptcy at this point, outta work no money, etc. She said "ok, I'll just turn this over to the proper authorities for the background check for the DMV".  'click'. That's it. just hung up.  I laughed.  I don't have anything, not a car, nothing, they could take even if they *were* legit and could do something.
After reading the lenghty comments on these ppl, that call made my day.
To think ppl like her are wasting their lives making a living out of harrassement and lies.

My dad called me and said someone called him and asked for me. My dad called me and let me know a man from QAR called. Gave his name and number 1-716-210-1341. I called the number and said I was in default of my WM now Chase for some time and was needing to pay the amount or I could have my wages garnished or my property taken from me I guess he mint my house and land. I don't know. But I did know I needed to pay even at lest a settlement but I don't have the money right now. What do I do? I don't know what to do. The people I have talked to from this QAR said I could pay $2500.00 settlement and my debt would be taken care of. If someone knows please let me know please!!!
