Ignored call.

im getting dam tired of these people harrassing me .

This Takhar Group is really starting to annoy me. I talked to some guy and told him im not the person he was looking for and he asked me if i knew that person and i said NO for the fifteenth dang time. then he had the nerve ,once i said i do know the person hes calling but will not give him any info, to tell me to give him the number. and that i will not stop being called since i know the person but will not give info. I finally told him that its harrassment and that if they did not stop then i will find out exactly what it is they are and get my attorney! He said he'd stop! ha

i keep getting calls from this Takhargroup there website never comes up on the screen its just a white blank page there just chineese an indian people that dont speak good english at all saying you owe money from a debt from columbia house.  this is a definate scam i havent ever gotten any thing in the mail at all from columbia house. the number is 8776311271.  i want them to stop calling me they call me 3 times a day 16 times a week i would like them to stop calling me

I am having the same issue.  They call every day twice a day.

I have an even better number.  Call Hardy Takhar directly at 519-622-3130, ext 241.

This Takhar group is a crappy little building on the wrong side of the tracks, in a crappy little town in Canada right out of the 1960's. Take a Google Street view tour of Cambridge, Ontario, and you'll see why these people are rude and arrogant... they live in a dirty diaper of a world. I live 200 miles from Mexico, but THIS place is truly third-world. When they call, ask them if they like to eat at Oliver's, just up the street, where the druggies go to drink. It might just put them off their game for a bit...
