Under investigation by ATTN GENERAL-SCAM AGENCY-ANY1 WHO FREELY GIVES OUT THEIR PERSONAL BANKING INFO TO PEOPLE THEY DONT KNOW CLAIMING THAT THEY WROTE "BAD CHECKS"/BOUNCED BAD CHECKS DESERVE TO HAVE THEIR BANKING IACCTS EMPTIED BY MISS STEPHANIE LOWINGER! THE ONLY ONE WRITING BAD CHECKS IS THE PERSON TRYIN TO TELL YOU THAT YOU DID AND TAKE MONEY FROM WHATEVER FAMILY MEMBER SHE CAN GET A PHONE NUMBR TO-SMARTEN UP PPL

I have been contacted by these people and i knew something was wrong because when they left the message they muffled my name and i don't even think its my name they are saying. They said they are gordon capoli and associates and the phone number is 877-860-8240.

According to Erie County court records, Stephanie Lowinger has a new business name; it's Gordon Cappolli & Associates. The address I found is 255 Great Arrow, Suite 4, Buffalo, NY 14216. The person I talked to at the NY Attorney General's office said this was a common tactic of hers -- changing her business name when the complaint volume got too high. I'm posting this in several places to make sure she doesn't get away with it.

Laughing so hard right now..... To who ever is reading this... Donna Latham and Stephanie Lowinger are going on these sites and putting in " GOOD" reviews. They are running a HUGE scam and they are ALL going to jail.. Yup even you Ms. Latham................ Stealing is what you both do best. How dare you accuse hard working citizens of stealing.... What a Joke!!! Oh and Stephanie ALWAYS types in caps!!!
Stripes always did look good on you Lolo... But for you Donna, it might look good if the stripes ran the opposite direction......

this reply is to say that its unfornuate that miss lowinger and associates practice the way they do, because majority of people on here bashing her office and industry did most likley issue a check draft in exchange for funds excepted into their bank account and had no intentions of honoring the check they gave for the funds they accepted and spent..but they will always jump on a way to claim their victims and point the finger. with that said i dont agree with the practices of this lowinger but i work in the industry and work on simular debts with in the law.  but alot of the cause of people like her using these tactics is the american consumer thinks they can buy the american dream on credit cards and loans but when time to pay for the money recieved then they refuse or are the victim or the banks are preditors, even though the consumer seeks out these loans, especially pay day loans and do so with ill intentions of not paying back, then they get calls like this and boo hoo.  if you paid the obligation to begin with, people like her wouldnt be in business nor would they have to resort to these sort of tactics.   the debtor also needs to be accountable!

Whoever wrote this get a life. You have nothing better to do than try to bring people down. Stealing, are you people serious.  I am Donna Latham if you have any questions please contact me. I am the Hr Director and I am not a thief at all. Its funny that people have no idea or clue what they are speaking about. For whoever that wrote this give me a call. I'm curious to find out who you are. I have not wrote any reviews on here. I dont need to steal. This is not my company. You sound stupid. Get your information together and then post something about yourselves. Where is your valid proof? Its funny that if you were working for the same person before why is this now coming out. Why did you ever come if you knew what you call a thief, a bad person, and etc. Oh because you didnt get what you wanted, Now it is everyone else fault. Wheres the scam maybe you know something I don;'t. Please stop with your nonsense. Yes I do look good with stripes I lost 22 pounds. LOL Talk what you know!

So, HR director, what do you have to say about the Attorney General's suit against your company, and the fact that your boss is facing felony charges? Still going to claim there's no scam? I guess that's for the judge/jury to decide...

BUFFALO, N.Y. (September 27, 2010) - Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo today announced the filing of felony charges against the owner of a debt collection company that targeted military personnel and harassed active members of the military and their families.

The investigation led to the filing of criminal charges against Stephanie Lowinger of Anderson Place in Buffalo, owner and operator of Neimen, Rona & Associates, formerly Morgan, Stone & Associates and now known as Gordon, Cappolli & Associates, all debt collection companies based in the Buffalo area. In addition to the criminal charges, the Attorney General has also filed a civil lawsuit seeking to shut down Lowinger’s operation and secure restitution, penalties, and costs. The action is the latest in Attorney General Cuomo’s ongoing probe of illegal practices in the debt collection industry.

Attorney General Cuomo’s investigation found that Lowinger specifically targeted military personnel, referring to their alleged debts as “special accounts.” Lowinger instructed employees to find out where the military members were stationed and identify their commanding officers. Lowinger had employees threaten to call and, in some cases, actually did call the commanding officers, both of which are illegal debt collection tactics.

According to a former employee, Lowinger also contacted the military personnel’s family members in order compel them to pay, another illegal tactic. In addition, the investigation uncovered that Lowinger falsely told military members or their families that she worked for the Department of Justice and illegally demanded immediate payment. She allegedly said that if payment was not made immediately, the active duty family member would be arrested by the military police and would face a dishonorable discharge.

“This individual is accused of operating her businesses in a lawless fashion, instructing her collectors to do anything necessary to collect on an alleged debt, even if it meant harassing and threatening members of the military and their families,” said Attorney General Cuomo. “We will continue to investigate debt collectors who try to take advantage of unsuspecting individuals facing hard economic times and we will bring them to justice.”

Among the allegations detailed in Attorney General Cuomo’s court papers, Lowinger and her collectors:

   * Falsely claimed to be lawyers, investigators, detectives, and mediators
   * Threatened consumers with arrest, jail, and lawsuits
   * Threatened to seize the assets of consumers
   * Inflated the amount allegedly owed
   * Attempted to collect debts from consumers not knowing if the consumer actually owed the debt
   * Targeted family members of consumers, wrongfully disclosing the existence of alleged debts to family members, and attempted to collect the alleged debts from family members
   * Harassed consumers through repeated and constant calls, using abusive language
   * Levied unauthorized charges on the credit card accounts of consumers

According to court papers, Lowinger operated Morgan, Stone & Associates out of 1211 Hertel Avenue in Buffalo beginning in May 2009. After complaints began to mount, she shut down and then reopened as Neimen, Rona & Associates using the same address, contact information, and even the same logo. In the fall of 2009, Lowinger moved Neimen, Rona & Associates to 255 Great Arrow Avenue, and in August 2010, changed her business name to Gordon, Cappolli & Associates. Despite the appearance of being different companies, all three firms are controlled by Lowinger.

The Attorney General’s Office, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Better Business Bureau (BBB) have received dozens of complaints regarding violations of law by the Lowinger operation. The BBB has given Lowinger’s businesses an “F” rating.

Attorney General Cuomo’s lawsuit seeks to permanently shut down Lowinger’s debt collection businesses and require restitution to those defrauded, as well as penalties and costs to the state. Lowinger and her companies are charged with Scheme to Defraud in the First Degree (class E felony). The maximum penalty for the charge is 4 years in prison.

Military service members can be vulnerable targets for abusive debt collection practices since their status, rank, or security clearance can be adversely affected. Complaints already received and evidence uncovered during the investigation show that military service members and their families were subjected to wrongful practices, including:

   * Unauthorized calls to commanding officers
   * Threats of arrest by military police
   * Threats of a dishonorable discharge
   * Threats of loss of security status
   * Threats of court martial

Attorney General Cuomo urges consumers who wish to learn more to visit www.NYDebtHelp.com . The site explains consumers’ rights, gives victims of abusive debt collection and debt settlement companies quick access to the Attorney General’s Office to file complaints, and outlines the stages of the investigation.

The civil case against Stephanie Lowinger and Neimen Rona & Associates is being handled by Assistant Attorney General James Morrissey and Senior Consumer Fraud Representative Karen Davis under the supervision of Deputy Attorney General for Regional Affairs J. David Sampson. The criminal case is being handled by Assistant Attorney General Paul McCarthy under the supervision of Deputy Bureau Chief Richard Ernst and Bureau Chief Gail Heatherly of the Criminal Prosecutions Bureau.

The charges against the defendant are merely accusations and she is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

she is ton the news today for fraud.  you can contact the ag about getting refunds potentially

go to buffalo news,  she is being charged with fraud.  contact them for repayment

Contact the new York attorney general can get your money back!!!!!!

Per a legal document in the case, prosecutors were tipped off to the internal workings of this outfit by a Buffalo collector, Damario Turpini, who sang like a canary and dropped a dime on Lowinger and three other agencies in the Buffalo area.  Likely just trying to save his own skin.  Amazing how the rats on a sinking ship will always climb all over each other.

"I WAS AN EMPLOYEE OF NRA THIS BLOG IS SO NOT TRUE THEY ARE LEGIT PEOPLE IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER THEY DONT MAKE FALSE THREATS TO ANYWAY"

Umm, Andrew Cuomo, the NY State Attorney General, apparently disagrees with you since his office has, as of 9/10, filed criminal and civil charges against her and her company after doing an investigation.

THEIR NEW NUMBER IS 716-748-7261

I just entered a note on these people but I didn't realize it until I read your comments.  The number they called me from is 716-748-7262.  But same MO.  They are laywers and if I don't do what they say and pay back $6000 in full they would continue with criminal proceeding.  when I ask them to send me a hard copy of this supposed debt they refuse saying that information can only go directly to my laywer. They are now harrassing my family members even if I call them back each time.  I tell them everyday send me the proof that I owe and I will pay but no proof sent only calls continue to me daily and to family members everyother day.

Funny how this scum Stephanie gets taken down and yet she's back to work for mckinnon at one of his shotty agencies..Some needs to take all these scums out.Hopefully the AG will do the right thing.
