866-737-9926

I have been called 9-20 times a week. They have 4 styles of recordings, all meant to scare you into a panic. The things they have in common are
1) You can press "1" to resolve this. (If you were on a live call) never fall for this trap.
2) The same (866) 737-9926 phone#. This is a terminated #. A Fake!
3) They try threatening Scare Tactics to panic you, thinking you can't access the Internet to verify the legal accusations they threaten you with. All are Fake!
All legal notices, communications etc... are through the USPS postal System or in person, NOT PHONE OR EMAIL!

Just got one just like what you described.  They said they are trying to serve me and would be at my place of employment soon.

Yes, All 3 happened!!! Look out

I just received a message from this so called firm. The recording said i failed to comply and i have 1 option to contact them to resolve or legal action will be taken.

Same thing happening to me, I think is a scam,

Called left me one of the messages described above.

What it seems is that these companies have acquired lists of people who have used payday loans in the past. Doesn't matter if they paid them off, just the fact that they used them at all gets them on this list. These people call and try to scare people into forking over hundreds to settle an old payday loan that they claim you owe. If you get into it with them they may actually come up with true details about a payday loan you took out (they're counting on you not remembering that you paid it back). The legalese in their message makes no sense; it's like they picked phrases out of a legal dictionary at random. It is 100% FRAUDULENT. Hang up and don't worry.

I got the same message yes I'm scared n tried calling them back so this is fake thank u

I got a call from acg firm wanting me to return call or press 1 to talk to a person I do not like crooks

SCAM SCAM SCAM...Wait until around tax refund time they really come out of the woodwork.  Don't let them scare you.

I just got one ... It scared me.  Said I had applied for a payday loan: unlikely, because I am retired, from overseas, just here on vacation.

Extortion Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

Washington, D.C.
December 07, 2010  FBI National Press Office
(202) 324-3691

— filed under: Press Release

The Internet Crime Complaint Center has received many complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. Callers claim the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check-cashing services.

According to complaints received from the public, the callers have accurate data about victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and the names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. How the fraudsters obtained the personal information varies, but in some cases victims have reported they completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls started.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim’s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide any details about the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers have threatened victims with legal actions, arrests, and, in some cases, physical violence if they do not pay. In many cases, the callers harass victims’ relatives, friends, and employers.

I am getting call after call from who ever this is, asking me to cl them back with a court case # it is not harrassment.they did not leave a name,the # is 8557379926

I made a typo error in my first message, I said it was NOT harrassment, I meant it is harrassment

Just got one telling me to take immediate action. Sooo glad I checked online first before responding.

Fantastic! I just got the call and attempted call back. 866-737-9926 is the number it came from. They tell you to call 855-432-1072. I tried calling and got the recording of what sounded like someone who had a hard time reading the script, telling me I reached ACG Processing then only gave me the option to leave a message. Didn't.
Too bad. ..............He will be remembered.

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt.  It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.
