Don't let these peckerheads intimidate you. They use threatening calls to try to get money out of people. I just tell them to piss off. I know for a fact I dont own anything since Im not in debt. They can take up there plausible cause with the business end of my expensive shotgun :). Good day.

Not true I was quite nice till she started getting rude and literally. Screaming at me and the person she was looking for doesn't even reside at this number

This number (905) 663-1440 just called me and I did not pick up. Upon retrieving my message, it's a lady that claims I need to call her back about my house. I have no idea what she wants. She did not even mention where she is calling from or who she is. Very unprofessional and awkward for someone to just mention your address.

Mine caller goes even farther, they called my brothers place and left a message for me to call back at +1 888-858-5529 (also Caroline Lee) - same routine. I called the number and the recording is for Palmer & Bocher Professional Corporation. Extension 1453 went to Caroline Lee (so they are smooth operators to make it all look legit).

My question is to anyone - Does anybody know where we can all report these calls and scam to? Maybe the RCMP or ??

You never know, maybe the police can track (via the telco company as they are the police) the number and hit pay dirt. More than likely, these operators are outside of Canada or the States and somehow have a forwarding system in place - after all VOIP technology probably allows for all sorts of abuse.

Going by the above messages, they change their number frequently.

More calls and more lies from this collection agency, Pomer & Boccia.  They phoned my cell phone twice today.  The first time, they hung up as soon as I told them they had the wrong number; the second time (one minute later) I asked the caller to stay on the line so that I could advise them that I had kept a log of their calls to my cell phone, in which they ask for "Terry Mercer" and I tell them there is no such person at this number (I don't know this person, and they've never said if it's a male or female Terry.)  The caller, who identified herself as "Julia", denied that they had called my number before (even though I had just told her I had a log of every call since Jan 14, and she was calling from the same number (905) 663-1440.)  She said they would NEVER call back once told they had the wrong number, despite the fact that I have received a total of 8 calls since Jan 14, and have told them on at least 5 occasions that the person they are trying to reach has no connection with the number they are calling.  Since the Collection Agencies Act prohibits a collection agency from continuing to call once they have been told this, I advised them the next call from their firm to my cell phone would result in me filing a complaint under the Consumer Protection Branch.If anyone else is being annoyed with calls from this firm and needs information on what their rights are, please see the following website:www.sse.gov.on.ca/mcs/en/pages/personal_finance_collection_agency_issues.aspx

Have received numerous calls on my cell phone from this phone number over the past few weeks.  The person they ask for is not known to me, and although I've explained that they have the wrong number, they call back, sometimes seconds later.  Once I missed the call, and they left a message for this same mystery person, stating they were calling from "the lawyer's office".  I answered their call again today and asked them to please be aware that they are calling a private cell phone number exclusively used by me (and I'm not the person they're looking for), and they rudely hung up while I was in mid-sentence.  Very unprofessional. I feel sorry for their real "clients".

Called the number last night and did some poking around. Pomer is in Family Law and the other one is real estate law. Where does collections fit into all this???? Penny, where are you??? I want to hear what you have to say about all this...

These a-holes have been calling me too for a debt that was written off in 1998. Way past the statute of limitations.
I have not responded to their messages and have the mail returned as incorrect address. They can keep wasting $$ on postage.

If anyone has a lawyer friend and wants to start a class action against them I'm in. We can pay our lawyer from the proceeds we are awarded for their harrassment.

Another option is to email the Law Society every day that they call you. Pretty soon the Law Society would get the message about these people and their bad practice.
