Whoever it is claims to be Benjamin Law as far as I could understand. They have left me threaten messages and when I call they will give no info if you ask a question.
They claim that there is a lawsuit against you but will not let you get a word in they will scream and threaten you that you will be sorry. I went right back at them.

I began receiving harrasing calls from this number. I contacted a debt collection attorney who advised that this more than likely a scam. DO NOT feel threatened or give or confirm any information they may have even if it is correct.

I am reporting this number to the ATTORNEY GENERAL

Same thing just happened to me. They yelled at me and told me I was going to jail. Also when I asked for a case number for my attorney they stated no. Also they wanted payments from me and they were just complete jerks. I'm calling scam/fraud. I talked to the police, they say it's not real. I hope no one falls for it.

I also received a rude and threatening message! I called back and was told to either pay $579.50 or have a warrant issued...it seemed to me the man who said his name was "David Jones" was of indian decent yet was pretending to have a southern accent...I feel like it''s a scam but am concerned because they had my social security # and some banking info!!! I am contacting the police today regarding this..

Debt is a civil matter not criminal unless intent to defraud can be proven.  Demand they provide in writing by US Mail a debt validation notice.  If they refuse, say "I take that as a refusal to pay" or continue with threats of arrest and bullying, you can be certain they are engaging in illegal actions.  Go to the FTC website for information on the federal laws that govern debt collection practices:

http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection

You can report illegal practices on the website.

As always, if in doubt about how to proceed, consult with an attorney.

Thanks for the info Mike!

I just got a call from this people called American Cash Advance try to get me to pay money that I dont owe them be aware going to report them. To business Beura its a scam to get u to pay the guy I got a call from name is Steve.

I have been recieving this call for about three weeks now. I have tried to get rid of them with every tactic. I have never let them to get to the point where they threaten about some money. I have tried to be nice, then I fuss and cuss at them and they just keep calling every day for me to be even meaner the next day.  They had different phone numbers some days, but the same type of people called each day.My best soultion came when google what to do with these type of calls.

I started receiving these calls 2/19/13, at work! I have asked for a fax number to fax a Cease and Desist letter and they will not give me one. They are very threatening and harass you. I advised not to call me at work and they continue. This is ridiculous! Very rude, I was nice at first, then I had to get "persistent" so they hung up on me and called right back at work  again, several times today. I am reporting to BBB but how can I get them to stop calling my work now? I just called them back from my cell phone, they read me my "rights", could not tell me who the lender was, which I do not owe any, but wanted me to send them $756.00 today or I will be arrested and that they will call my employer and speak to my boss and get me fired and for me to be prepared to be arrested. I advised that I am the Supervisor at my employer and his response was in my "f***ing" dreams and hung up.

This is a scam and do not respond to them. Contact local police. This guy does this for a living.

Yes I been recieving a phone call from this number also claiming that I have a lawsuit out against me!  They ask that u don't disturb them while they explain the law suit they ask if my last four was correct I told them no and what was this about. So he went to explain I had a suit from Cash USA I let him know I never did any business with this company and he said I was going to jail and started using profane language I hung up the phone!  What other way can I report these harassment calls!!

The benjamin law firm keeps calling my cell and work number. How they got either one I don't know. They threaten me and tell me I am going to jail. I told them to quit calling. I told them I was going to report them. He started yelling at me and saying he would put me in jail and did I not care if I went to jail. He continues to call and harrass.

I called the number as requested by a citizen of our city. He had been informed by the caller that a warrant was issued by the City of Mabank and he was to be arrested unless he wired $200 to the James Morgan company. He has been harassed at his job in Dallas as well. I was cursed and told that the former defendant would continue to be harassed. That I had no authority. Our city secretary informed the police chief and the citizen that this is a scam.

We just switched our phone company and have had our cell phones for not even 30 days yet. My husband continues to get harassing call from this number saying that I- his wife- owe them money and that they are calling on behalf of some sort of Law firm. This was shut down by my husband saying if his wife owed money he would know. They then start calling him swear names. They have since called using a foreign man, foreign female and then today when my husband threatened to turn them into the State Attorney, they called back FROM THE SAME #....and an American male started asking my husband how I liked him in bed last night!! Now he just hits the IGNORE key on the phone. Eight more calls since 9am.

This number has called my cell starting at 5:30am pacific time. I get to work and there is a message on the company voice mail in regards to me. My boss returned the call, telling this person to not call at work that I am not allowed to take personal calls at work. He then proceded to call back 15 times! My boss answered and said we can do this all day if you want! He called 10 more times and then stopped. OMG!!! I was so freaked out, even though I knew it was a scam he got to me.

never did any business with the supposed counts against me from american. who they say they represent. these people have my info. that's scary. i am going to devote some time to running them into the ground. wish i had money for an attorney. according to them and the money they claim i took. i should. lol. i'll add to others who filed complaints with fbi and local authorities.

I too received called from this person claming to have a lawsuit against me.

Same message as others on page> threats< swearing< yelling

Speaks with accent, hard to understand

It is interesting to note that American Cash Advance is not actually a lender.  When a person sends in a application,  they sell it to potential lenders.  (Usually sleezy ones)   Your name is also sold on a list by American Cash Advance.  Go to their website and read all of the privacy notices and fine print.  
Anyone who does business with them is going to regret it later.

Jo,  You cannot fax a cease and desist letter.  I wish everyone would understand that a Fax is not considered a legal document if a need arises.  Nor is an Email.   You should demand written validation of the debt from them via usps.  Not a Fax,  not an Email.   Written validation via usps.  They have 5 days to legally comply. (They can no longer communicate with you until this is provided)    Advise them that you will no longer speak with them until you have received this validation of the alleged debt with all information concerning the Original owner of the debt as well as a copy of any contract that may exist with the original owner.  Tell them that you want all information validated concerning this account including payments made or any other activity and the date of the last and final payment or activity on this alleged account.  (This establishes Statute of Limitations on the alleged debt)  Then stop all contact with them,   have a meeting with your manager or HR people and advise them of what is happening.  Provide them with a letter stating the same. (That's in case you should be penalized or terminated because of this)    If this Scammer,  and that is exactly what unethical collectors who do not follow the FDCPA are)   will not provide you with written validation of the debt or for any reason claims that you are not entitled to it...that means that they don't have any validation.  You cannot be arrested over a civil dispute or locked up.   This is indeed unethical collection practices of an alleged false debt,  or a scammer at work  (Both the same).   Not a thing can be done by him.  Just scare and harassment tactics.
