312-239-0201

Got a call from this number 312-239-0201 they left a message and told me to call them back at 1-888-229-5566 it was a urgent matter. So i called back and they were from William Scott and Associates. Told me to give them my account info cuz i owed money to them or i was going to jail. When i asked for an address to send the money they wouldnt give me an address cuz they had to have my account number. They were all hateful to me and i got cussed out when i wouldnt give out my info to them. They have continued to call me all day and i have not answered anymore. Who are these people?

got a call from an female who said she was an investigator & she was calling about a fraud case & she also demanded my account #.  very rude & I disconnected the call & I will be forwarding this information to the attorney general.

Received a call from some woman at this number wanting my debit card information regard a financial transaction in August of 2008 in South Carolina.  Keep insisting they were from South Carolina. only problem, this is a Illinois phone number.  Only other issue was I was living in Fort Lauderdale at time of stated Transaction.  She was rude and very Unprofessional in her tactics.  Suspect William Scott and Associates are a scam operation.    They wouldn't provide any address information, only wanedt my debit card information.  I don't think so;

What rule number one.  Never give your debit card information over the phone,  Especially from an unknown source.

I recievied a call from the first person on June 3 telling me that I was going to jail for a pay day loan that I took out 3 years ago, this man was very nice he had my address, social, and the amount of the loan that I owed so I gave this man my credit card information, but when I didn't pay any more money I recieved a call from a man with the last name of Darden. He called my job and told my supervisor that I was going to jail if I didn't call him. Mr Darden told me that I was going to jail and I was going to lose my job. Now I am having him investigated, and I advise everyone to do the same and not take this treatment form this man.

I recieved a call from this collection agency William Scott and Associates and this is the number they gave me to call back. They had all my info, where i got the debt, and when, but nothing was setting right with what they were saying: like trying to tell me that a 300 dollar loan from 4 years ago was now over $2000 and that i would be expecting a police officer at my door to arrest me because it would then be considered kiting bad checks.
needless to say i did to my homework and contacted the loan office that originally gave me the money and after 3 different agencies i was informed that the debt was infact with william scott and associates. they SERIOUSLY need to work on their people skills and for the record dont let them tell you one amount on the payment arrangement and then when the money starts coming out they have changed the amount. i caught them on that crap and they decided to get rude and as i called her "snoodie".... i called back and they agreed to the original terms with full clearance.

i recieved a call a couple days ago  telling me they had a warrant out for my arrest they had my soc sec number i foolishly gave them my information when i found out about this i had everything changed.

My son got a call from this 312 # told him he owed money from a loan that was taken out 2 years ago said that the company was going to press charges or what not....we looked up company on the internet seen all the fraud...and he cancelled his card...now he is in Calhoun County Jail awaiting trial for check fraud...please this isnt fraud dont put these things online for someone else to go through what my son is going through now

Got a call from this number this morning, I live in Calif. They asked for my mother who lives in Washington state. They said it was regarding my brother who also lives in Washington state. They told me that he committed check fraud and was going to jail today if my mother didn't call him back. I googled that number and discovered this site. Then I phoned up mom and told her about the fraud thing in case they try to reach her. We know that my brother went to a Check Cash place to get some cash a couple of years ago, but he has been unable to manage his funds for several years and that responsibility is done through an organization. So this sounded fishy from the start.

I received a call from 312-239-0201 from a "Investegor Mark Williams" regarding an important matter that needs ny immediate attention today. He directed me to extension 104. I called the number back and spoke with the man. He told me it was an old debt from a cash advance place. He told me that the debt concludes "check fraud" and theamount was for nine hundred and some odd dollars, which is a high amount due to interest accrued and if i didnt give the account some attention today,which was to make a payment arrangement. Wierd thing was that i owe them in 2004 and si.ce then had filed bankruptcy early 2010. I spoke to my attorney and the attorney general and they said that if you are threatened with a case against you, you would have received a notice in the mail or at least something in print. I then called Mr. Williams back and asked him to fax me something in print that says the debt and criminal case was valid, he did. but the information, court case number, and other information was invalid and false. All the info was verified by my attorney. What a scam!

Today this number called my parents, sister and ex-husband.  I had obtained a Payday Loan in 2008, yes 3 years ago.  I lost my job and did not pay it back.  The check I gave them was presented for payment and returned NSF.  Now, 2011, they told my family that it was for a bad check that constitued fraud.  That each family member was told that because they were listed as references that I could not have gotten the loan without them.  The masn told my father that he would be listed second on the lawsuit.  My father is in his 70's and was upset bu this guy from Willam Scott and Associates.  I have sent a letter to the Attorney General in Texas and will see what transpires.  The guy on the phone said he was going to file a case in Bexar County.  Shouldn't they have filed back in 2008.  I have not heard from anyone until now?  It is so strange.

my husband got a call from  some guy mr. darton are something like that it was concerning my husband daughter he sounded ruded and ugly im ready for him to call back because i look on line and these people are a scam i cant wait to tell him i no what they are doing. and he must cease and decease from calling me and my daughter    THEY NEED TO FIND A REAL JOB HA HA

This company called my daughter on her birthday claiming to be Police Academy Associates; said that she was being named an accessory to check fraud and that they needed her to call an confirm her social security number before to protect her from procecution for check fraud that her brother had committed. They used words like court dockat case number, and arrested. They were pretending to be police.  Her brother has committed no crime but does live in another city and has recently used a payday check lending service. When I called the company they answered William Scott & Associates, but would not disclose their location, state of incorporation or any information about them other than they were William Scott and Associates with a P. O. Box number. They seem to want to get bank information so than can steal assests. This company is a racket. Beware of these criminals. They will prey on your loved ones and extort money from anyone who is vulnerable.

An unpaid loan is not check fraud. Who are you kidding. If he wrote a bad check and did not cover it in a reasonable amount of time, then that is check fraud. This reads like a message that a representative of Willaim Scott & Associates would post.

I received a call today from my boss whom told me that some woman from this number said she needed him to detain me as she was with the county sheriffs department and she had a warrant for my arrest and was headed to pick me up. My boss called me at home telling me this information and I immediately called my local sheriffs department to see if there was a warrant for my arrest. They told me they didn't have anything on me so I called the number in which they called from 312-239-0201 When the person on the other end answered it was Williams, Scott and Associates and they are a collection agency as I later found out. They had me talk to a guy who went by the name Investigator McDowell. This McDowell character proceeds to tell me that they have a warrant in place for me for a $330 check advance back in September 2007 and in order to keep from going to jail that I must pay $2,105 immediately. I not having that kind of money immediately made payment arrangements and gave them my husbands bank card number but explained I would have to make a deposit prior to them running his card. When I got off the phone I spoke with my boss who said he had punched in the number to google and found disturbing reports that made him feel this company was extorting money from people. I researched this online and called the bank that the "bad check" was wrote on and found interesting information. The bank said the debit with them had been cleared up years ago and they had not heard of the so called vice president that was supposed to be the key witness in the case against me. Furthermore I contacted the better business and they rated the company a F-, I contacted my district attorneys office and they said this company was doing illegal things and I contacted the check advance company themselves and they informed me they sold the debt to a collection company whom informed me they sold it to this company. I called this company back and told them I was recording the call and they hung up on me. I called again and told them I was recording the call and that I had done my homework and that I know that they can't send me to jail but I was willing to pay them $400 ($330 for the original check and $70) for any fees they had inccurred they came back telling me that I would have to pay $495. I told them I may be able to do that if they would give me an address he refused saying they needed a checking account card over the phone to process the payment. I told him I would have to get back to him on that. I came home and looked on the internet and ran across the federal trade commission I filed a report with them and was told by them DO NOT SEND THIS COMPANY ANY MONEY. I had my husband cancel his bank card to keep any money from coming out. All I can say is hang up on these jokers if they call you they are bad and pray on people who are trying to make it day to day. They are guilty of extorting money and I hope they are arrested,

I got a call from this company and ignored it.  I just got released from the county jail. A warrant was issued for my arrest and I regret not answering the phone calls and responding to correspondence.  Now I owe MORE money than before!!! UGH!!!!

Trust me..I just got out of jail from ignoring these guys.  I didn't think that this could happen with a bad check written to Ace Cash Express, but it is, in fact check fraud and theft by deception.  It is up to the company to pursue you.  They don't in all cases, but my luck proved to be the opposite.  What have I gotten myself in to?!!  I'm so frustrated!!!
