Business ProfileforMcCarthy, Burgess & Wolff, Inc.

If I could give less than one star, I certainly would. Let me preface by saying I have no personal/emotional stake in my dealings with this company; I was just the unlucky soul that had to deal with accounts payable for a political campaign that ended up losing. As a staffer for the campaign, I was tasked with cataloguing invoices and managing vendor accounts for our satellite offices throughout the state. Because of this, my cell number was often used to communicate with the vendors. Because we lost, our treasurer closed out our various vendor accounts and tied up any lose ends financially. However, I have been inundated with calls from this collections agency because my phone number is associated with an account through our ISP for one of the offices. After the first call, I got the necessary information about the debt and provided the debt collector with the phone number of the individual to contact to settle it. I notified my manager and the treasurer so they knew they would be contacted. However, the collections agency has continued to call me. Upon the second call, I tried to confirm whether this collections attempt was even legitimate by asking for dates of service, what bills we were behind on, etc. The debt collector sounded like she was making up dates that would justify her call, and when I would ask for more detail she would simply say that she was a third party collector and didn't know. I asked her why she was calling me again when I already told her she needed to reach out to our treasurer, to which she lied by saying this was her "first time calling." By this point, I'm getting a little upset, as I've already given her the info she needs to collect, and rather than trying to understand that this is a defunct campaign and the debt won't be easy to collect on even if she was *contacting the right person*, she started harassing me. I once again gave her the contact for the person she needed to reach, and they called again today. Shut them down.
