i got several calls and vaicemails from them in the past few months (all automated calls, no actual person).
today, as i was writing up a report to send in on them, i wanted to verify the number and called it again.
this time a lady answered. I asked :"who are you?" she said "Natale Law Firm".
I said, "why do you call up people and leave automated messages?"
she said: "what number is it that we called which you are asking about?"
i said: "you're funny, aren't you?"
she said: "well then we'll have to call back when we have your number."
i said: "the police might call you first".
she said: "that's ok"
i said goodbye and hung up.
this just goes to show that not only are they a fraud but that they are used to people calling back upset at them and they just calmly ignore you and will continue to call.
i was actually surprised that someone answered...
has anyone else here ever gotten an answer? maybe try calling today and see if you do too...
i sent a complaint to phonebusters but the only real place to complain is the police and i doubt that would do any good if these guys are around since 2005 and are still not shut down. too bad.

You will find a lot of info about these  fraudsters at this link.http://www.canadian-money-advisor.ca/press-release.html

I have been getting ?recordings from this one too.similiar scam as others. diregard or report the jerks.

From the Ontario Ministry of Consumer Affairs Web site
The Collection Agencies Act prohibits collection agencies from doing certain things.

The Ontario Ministry of Government Services consulted the collection industry to develop a standard to be followed by all collectors. Having a standard also allows the public to have a better understanding of what collection agencies can and can't do.

The regulations forbid collection agencies from:

contacting you until six days have passed from sending you written notice of the following: • the name of the creditor • the balance owing • the name of the agency and its authority to demand payment
continuing to contact you if you did not receive the notice unless a second copy of the written notice is sent to an address provided by you, and then contact may only be made six days after sending notice;
contacting you if you send a registered letter to the agency saying that you dispute the debt and suggest the matter be taken to court;
contacting you if you or your lawyer notify the agency by registered mail to communicate only with your lawyer, and you provide the lawyer's name, address and telephone number;
contacting you on Sunday, except between the hours of 1 p.m. and 5 p.m., and on a holiday;
contacting you other than by ordinary mail more than three times in a seven-day period without your consent, once the agency has actually spoken with you;
using threatening, profane, intimidating or coercive language, or using undue, excessive or unreasonable pressure;
continuing to contact you if you have told them that you are not the person they are looking for unless they take reasonable precautions to ensure you are that person;
giving false or misleading information to any person;
recommending to a creditor that a legal action be commenced against you without first sending you notice;
contacting your employer except on one occasion to obtain your employment information, unless your employer has guaranteed the debt, the call is in respect of a court order or wage assignment or if you have provided written authorization to contact your employer;
contacting your spouse, a member of your family or household, or a relative, neighbour or acquaintance except to obtain your address and telephone number unless the person contacted has guaranteed the debt or you have given permission for the person to be contacted.

Receive  any bogus legal threats from Global Credit recently? Judy Sgro's daughter up to her old tricks!http://www.canadian-money-advisor.ca/threadview/457.htmlDeanna Natale, the erstwhile Damsel of Distress, Diva of Doom and Queen of Mean at Total Credit Recovery recently had a difference of opinion (involving injuries and lawsuits) with her old almer mater where she enjoyed many felicitous years of gouging the public through litigation and unscrupulous mortgage brokerage practices. She is now plying her trade up the road at Global Credit and Collections located in the Motorola Building at 8133 Warden Ave., Suite 400, Markham, Ont.,Tel. (905) 479-2222 or 1-+1 800-463-4929. Natale's office is just down the hall in suite 405 at (905) 413-8748. Basically, it's just a fancy boiler room operation with lots of security and carded entry. They haven't made too many friends. I wonder why.You didn't mention whether Global had bought up your account or were just earning a commission on it from someone else. Sometimes collection agencies will buy up large amounts of old and SOL (stats barred) paper for almost nothing on the dollar, send out bluff notices and play the numbers. Surprising, the money that's lined up to buy the stuff.Last week, I had a guy from New Brunswick send me several emails concerning exactly the same phoney statement of claim from her. Maybe she's sending them out en masse and just working the numbers.Natale sent him one of those bogus Form 7A's (Statement of Claim in Ontario Small Claims Court) threatening legal action in her jurisdiction of Richmond Hill. (I thought it should have been Newmarket, Ont.) In any event, his line of credit was just over the 6 year mark since the date of last activity on the account - which is the limitation period in NB). Natale wanted $6,000 OR ELSE! It was even more confusing since the address of the bank where the original line of credit loan was taken out and the borrower's address were in the same New Bunswick town. That would mean that any lawsuit would have to be filed there, not in Ontario, irrespective of whether or not the debt had been bought up by Global. These bogus Form 7A's always have a blank red seal in the upper left hand corner and the word "Draft" in the top middle. In this case, I told the guy that Global was SOL because the debt was SOL.It seems you also are just one more target of Natale's huffing and puffing. Since Natale is using bluffs and threatening lawsuits when, as a lawyer, she knows full well what the provincial laws of jurisdiction and limitation are, then people should send in a formal complaint to the Law Society of Upper Canada keeping copies of all her correspondence with her as submission evidence of professional misconduct.That's one of the reasons why she and George Krieser at Total Credit Recovery were able to get away with their Five Star Mortgage shenanigans at Total Credit Recovery. We effectively had a collection agency garnering unsuspecting, desperate clients for an in-house mortgage company. Some collectors were getting under the table $3000 monthly bonuses for intimidating debtors to take out second mortgages at egregious rates of 10% to 18% to cover small and marginally delinquent debts without TCR's major bank clients knowing about it. In fact, it was expressly against the banks' instructions. However, they had a way of bypassing their CISCO call manager system that would allow the banks to secretly monitor their collection calls to distressed debtors. In other words, the banks didn't want TCR using their clients as a happy hunting ground for their distressed borrowers thus forcing the banks to needlessly lose interest on the accounts. Unfortunately, TCR was able to clandestinely pull this off and doubtlessly put debtors into an even bigger debt spiral. Wayne Macleod, the current VP at TCR, would call it fiction but other employees there would disagree. Even they couldn't stomach what was going on and left. So you see, unless people know what their rights are and come forward, nothing gets done. Be very, very leery when dealing with this woman - her broom has a sharp handle.It's very doubtful or absolutely certain (depending on the province you're in and the date of the debt) that once a debt is stats barred, that it can be revived by suckering the person into making a payment and starting the limitation period **** over again as blogger Al Reynolds earlier suggested.All CRA's (Credit Reporting Agencies) in Canada are only allowed to report a delinquency 6 years from the date of the last activity on the account (which is usually a payment or a written acknowledgement from the debtor [AND NOT THE CREDITOR]. Another Natale bluff.
