This is my complaint that I also sent to the BBB.

My husband was first contacted by this "so called" company with something to do with property. When that didn't work my sister-in-law was contacted by a "Mr. James" (a so called attorney) that she was going to be taken to court and sued as a co signer on a credit card. My sister-in-law contact me as I was the actual borrower of this loan. I was told by this "Mr. James" that I owed $10,000.00 on a credit card through Wells Fargo. After my conversation with this man I called Wells Fargo and my account(s) have been paid off and closed. I did some research on the Internet and found hundreds of results from 1-800-303-5033 and 714-380-3007 about it being a scam. This scam is called the Wham "BAM" thank you Ma am scam. I also looked on my credit report and the # 800-303-5033 comes up under the name Blackrock Assets as a lender. When I called "Mr. James" the second time on July 24, 2012 I called him out on his scam he became furious with me and yelling that I was the scammer and hung up on me. I then called back and a "Mr. Lee" answered the phone and I told him that I knew about the scam and that I had already contact Wells Fargo. "Mr. Lee" then proceeded to tell me that it is still showing up as that I owe and that if Wells Fargo is in the wrong that Mr. James" could represent me in suing them. I would never sue Wells Fargo and I would never have "Mr. James" represent me!!!

BAM Financial first contacted my husband on July 18th as I stated previously with something about direct connection with property. Since my husband had no clue with what they were talking about he kept the voicemail but ignored calling back. Then on July 23rd my sister-in-law was contact by phone and I returned the call on the same day. Neither I nor my sister-in-law has ever been provided with any documents, letters, or statements that this is an outstanding debt from Wells Fargo, BAM Financial, Blackrock Asset Management or any other collection agency. Which to my acknowledgement any collection agency has 5 days to provide me with written documentation. Mr. James said that I said that I was refusing to pay in which I did not state though he hasn’t provided me with any written proof that I do owe. He tried to get my sister-in-law to give him her banking information which she did not do. He also stated that he was going to reposes and/or put a lien on my vehicle. Which he also is not supposed to make any types of threats which include saying that I and/or my sister-in-law will have a warrant out for our arrest or will be arrested in which he did say. I was told by Mr. James that he’s an attorney. I would like to be provided with an attorney bar number. Mr. James said that he has had this account/case since 2009. Then why did it take 3 years to get in contact with me and/or my sister-in-law? Mr. James also knew much more information about me and my sister-in-law than a collection service/agency or attorney would know without talking to them and me telling them first. He brought up things on me from 20 years ago. The address on Emery Court which BAM Financial lists as its address with the BBB is an apartment complex (Red Flag right there!!!). 9393 Emery Ct Ste 6 Fountain Valley CA is an apartment unit located at Grande Apartments, 9940 Clover Ave, Fountain Valley, CA 92708. Blackrock Asset Management is listed twice (July 10th and July 24th) on my credit report as a “lender” with a hard inquiry.
Definition of 'Hard Inquiry’ a type of credit report check that may lower an individual’s credit score. A hard inquiry occurs when an individual applies for any type of credit, such as a mortgage, credit card or auto loan. The reason a hard inquiry may lower an individual’s credit score is because someone who has recently applied for new credit is seen as a potentially riskier borrower.
I myself have not applied or have given any agency permission to apply for any type of credit.
On the BBB website BAM Financial says it is located at 9393 Emery Ct Ste 6 Fountain Valley CA not Blackrock Asset Management. Luis Carrera is listed as the owner of both of these places. (Red Flag once again same owner, same phone number, different addresses approximately 18 minutes away from each other, conflicting address reports and conflicting business name reports). I have talked to a Mr. James, Mr. Lee, Mr. Parson or Carson and a Mr. Cortez. Even with different names when speaking to them they all sound like the same person (another Red Flag!!!)
I also ran both names on the California Secretary of State Website and came up with the following information below:

Blackrock Asset Management LLC is on my credit report as a lender not a collection agency/ service. From the information that I ran on the California Secretary of State website this business is closed. BAM Financial and Blackrock Asset Management have the same phone number of 1- 800-803-5033. There is no listing at the BBB for Blackrock Asset Management though from the information I have on my credit report as of July 10th and of July 24th they are still in operation and not underneath BAM Financial as stated at the BBB and through California Secretary of State.
