as a quick follow-up to a post I made earlier today, I just found the following on the company's website:
"TAKHARGROUP's third-party collection service imparts a sense of urgency upon seriously delinquent customers during these periods, reducing net write-offs and the cost of collecting after charge-off...With the right data supplied to us at placement, TAKHARGROUP can locate and collect from the greatest number of previously uncollected accounts...Our strategy ensures TAKHARGROUP contacts and collects from the highest percentage of customers."

If I read between the lines correctly, they're saying "if a client gives us emergency contact info for all of their accounts, we will harrass the friends/family - imparting a sense of urgency in the customer - until we collect."  Major BBB complaints and lawsuits against this company.

It's funny, someone earlier posted the numbers and extensions of their senior management from their website - then they deleted the info from their site (leaving only their 866# on their "contact us" tab).  But if you want to play their game against them, here are names and contact info for what appear to be management, along with family members and employees:

[***] called and threatened my family and would no say who they were

[***] called and threatened my family and would no say who they were

Had a problem with these clowns back in October of 10. Filed a complaint with the Mass. A.G's office. To make a long story short, Takhar admitted sloppy "research" and had the wrong person. End of calls real quick.

left a rude message insisting that I call them back immediately. These people are a joke.   I called them back and they said I owed money to a company that I have never heard of. TOTAL SCAM. I am going to report them.

Amenda Mathews answered this number

I'm in the process of trying to collect info on them the more I get the better .It is the same Group over ans over again and they have been reported to the attorney general people need to file a class action suit against them find out where they operate out of .
I'm exposing the numbers here they are do not answer them it is wide spread and then turn them in to the FCC .412 2831420  /866 495-0995 /407 347-4014 /443/313-1380/800 6200371  / as you can all see this is harrassment from some company we do not knwo now owe ...this has been going on for months and i hope the FBI gets them but good . Do not answer them or they will win .Just go about your day .

They keep calling my house, leaving threatening messages and when i am home to pick up they hang up before saying anything. They stated we needed to call them or go to their website and they spelled it out as  www.pakhargroup.com.  never heard of them before

Ok i would love to be able to get in on any law suits.  you would not believe how many calls i get a day on my house phone alone.  Then there is my cell.  I have at least 10+ numbers they have used.  Please someone help me.

Listen up every one.

For those of you with gmail accounts there is a feature called googlevoice. It allows you to dial free to ANY number in the US and Canada.

So your thinking, so what? Call back Takhar, 800 620 0371 and do so REPEATEDLY. Oh and guess what the caller ID on their end will show up as 760 705 8888 - ITS COMPLETELY UNTRACEABLE!!!

Try it and lets all give them a taste of their own medicine

Got same message from "Takhargroup" demanding I call them at 1-800-620-0371.
I believe they must be aligned with another group that was harassing me & even calling friends telling them they were "investigators" & I was in big trouble.
I finally reported them to law enforcement.2x..and the calls stopped. I was told they are a scam.
Now this new group has just started calling.
I don't speak to anyone whom I don't know & does not give a true reason for their call.
I will report this bunch too.
I suggest to NOT go to their "website" as they might get your email address if you do.

Received several calls from these people over the past week. The recording of a man leaving an URGERT and rather threatening sounding message of upmost importance that I call back immediately - leaving me a number and a website to contact them at (www.takhargroup.com). I was not familiar with this name and looked them up online - there are SEVERAL sites with complaints against these people. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION unless they supply you with a hard copy of a bill!!! Infact, Don't answer their calls at all! SCAM! Check the following website for more complaints: http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/collection-agencies/takhar-group-2.html

takhar group is a debt collecting agency.  if u dont call back, they send whatever your particular debt is to the three major credit report agecies.

they have only called me 3 times.  the lady i talked to didn't have an accent and they were collecting on something i didn't pay a couple years ago.  i did owe the money and they had my address right.  so nothing all that suspisious to me.  but will be monitoring my bank account very closely for a while.  just to be safe.

I just got a call from these jerks a few minutes ago. I called back, and was told that the office was closed. I don't think this is a legitimate company, because if it were, they would not be so rude up front. A collection agency is rude, but they usually don't get rude until they get the guy they are trying to call on the line. Why call, leave a msg, and not say what the business hours are?
