- maria victoria higginbotham"Veronica" keeps calling me and said that she is a lawyer and threatening me about a lawsuit that I have no clue about. I know I didn't do anything wrong and I didn't get any loan so I never returned the call. She is harassing me and its soooo ridiculous!!!! Can anyone tell me what to do about this???
- JamesHas been calling my phone for the last few weeks. Won't give me any type of information at all, when I asked them to send me something in the mail they refused to send it and instead sent an email. Veronica tries to give back attitude when you give her one or ask for information. Filed a complaint with FTC, hopefully something can be done about this.

- cindyj| 3 repliesthis lady named Veronica keeps calling harassing me. Tries to threaten me by saying she has filed civil actions against me and that she is a lawyer saying that she knows the law. Apparently she doesn't know the law. she's a fraud. she won't get no action out of me!!!! Then when I tried to tell her my rights she said that she is filing misdemenor criminal charges, as her way of trying to intimidate me and others. When I tried to express my views she over talked me and was rude and wouldn't listen. Come to find out that Veronica is independently employed, her company is not a real company. She says she works to collect debts independently. She is not a lawyer and she is not calling from a real business. I had a friend pretend to be a concerning person and asked Veronica what kind of business she worked at and she stated that it wasn't an actual business, and that she worked independently.
- B replies to cindyjShe's called and left messages too saying she's from "PCS Legal Services" and turning my case over to a District Justice unless I paid an outstanding debt. I have no doubt she is a fraud.

- Scout| 1 replyI have gotten calls from this number over the past couple of days saying that my wife took out a payday loan in April of 2007. This is 2011! Veronica said that the loan was not paid back and that her client wants his money paid in full, if not they will call the state attorney's office in our area and file charges against my wife. This is called PCS legal Services. i asked for information on this matter and was told they it would be sent via e-mail. My wife said that she paid this debt off. Veronica has been very nice on the phone. Kinda woundering now if this is a real company or just a scam to get money!! Can anyone help me with this?

- Barb| 1 replyI have the same company calling me and threatening me, I unfortunately did have an outstanding payday loan, and they even named the company, I paid it and now they keep calling me and telling me the same thing only I get a Shawn Davis, Eric Masters, and a whole lot of other names. I have contacted my local authorities and filed a complaint, when investigated, all the numbers that the give are thru Happy Jack and cannot be traced and they are out of the country. DO NOT PAY THEM.
- BARB SODEN| 1 replyI have received messages as well, the numbers I have are 347*327-*6497 and 323*432*8769 and they say they are from PCS Legal Services, they leave very threatening messages on my voice mail such as, if you do not call within 5 minutes, we can't help you and will call the Attorney General and have you arrested. I unfortunately have fallen for this twice and paid the bill they said I owed, only to have them call again and tell me the same thing, I have been tracking the calls and the debt that they say I owe and guess what, it always the the same debt. Don't be stupid like I was, tell them to go to hell.

- Felix Alonzo replies to BARB SODENI too got a v-mail from a "Veronica" which more then likely is not her real name. This so called business also traces back to the UK, so now I really know that theres something really fishy going on. DO NOT NEGOTIATE WITH THIS VERONICA. If this is truely a large business law firm then why is there only one person making these calls?

- army1| 1 replyThey can't arrest people for not paying a loan. Sue them, yes. But nobody goes to jail for being overdue on a pay day loan,credit card or a mortgage."
Here's what they tell you: "This is different. You wrote a bad check" (if you gave a post-dated check). Or, "You committed bank fraud" (if you authorized a transfer from an account that had insufficient funds).
At the time the payday loan company accepted your post-dated check or future bank account withdrawal, they knew you didn't have those funds in your account. Duh. That's the whole point.
And how are they going to prove you didn't plan to have the money in your account later? Unless you were planning not to repay from the very start and they can prove it, they wouldn't stand a chance prosecuting you for a bad check. They know it. You haven't committed any crime. The cops wouldn't care.
If you want to eavesdrop on what would probably happen if they tried to get a cop to arrest you, here ya go. A fellow who works in a county office asks, what do you do when these payday loan companies come in, wanting us to prosecute people for bad checks? And most of the other counties tell him, we just ignore them. We don't like 'em anyway.
But it might get even better for you.
Payday loan companies are regulated in most states. Figure out which state laws apply to you. If you got the payday loan at a storefront business in the same state you live in, obviously the laws of your state apply. If you got a loan online, it might be the laws of the state the company is in, or the laws of your state, so check both.
Then look up the state laws written in plain language at this site. Another source of payday loan laws in each state is here. The laws might not be totally up-to-date, and the legal language is hard to wade through, but try looking for words like "criminal" or "prosecuted" and see if there's an actual specific prohibition against criminal charges.
For example, in Arizona, the law actually says: An individual who issues a personal check to a payday loan place is not subject to criminal prosecution. In Kentucky, every payday loan place has to actually post a sign that says nobody will be prosecuted or convicted of writing cold checks or of theft by deception.
If you're really lucky, you might even find out that out-of-state internet loans are illegal in your state, and the company was breaking the law by loaning you the money in the first place.
But here's the bottom line: Don't let collectors bully you. Find out the law. You're not going to find any cops knocking on your door.
You're not going to jail.
That doesn't mean you can just forget about paying back the loan. You do owe the money, and they can probably sue you in civil court, add a bunch of costs and fees and interest, garnish your wages or put a lien on your property. You don't want that. Talk to them before it gets that far. Try this, if it's not to late. Or see if you can get another loan, or borrow money someplace else to pay it back, or do anything you can rather than default.
But don't let them scare you. You're not going to jail.
And yes, you may know somebody
who's actually been arrested for that.
"Geez," you think, "This is bad."
But it's not. Heck, they might even be
the ones breaking the law.
I'm not a lawyer (thank god), but this is
how I understand it. To find you guilty
of writing a bad check, the prosecutor needs to prove that you intended to write a bad check and that the company accepting the check didn't know there were no funds.
Good luck with that- Caller: veronice pcs

- Mom replies to army1| 2 repliesAnother number they use is 716-240-8045. She calls me all the time too to collect on a debt and has the same threatening messages. Well there is something you can do about it. Sue them. They are breaking the law with the threats. I know first hand and so far I have sued Three debt collectors for misuse of the law. I am a single parent and working on getting my debt corrected. But like you said, don't let them bully you around. I did and now i am standing up for my rights as a tax payer for this country.
- nanny replies to MomI got a call today from Veronica about a IMPACT Loan, I don't have one. She told me i have two weeks to pay this account in full or she will file a pending claim with Mchenry County Courts. i don't live in Mchenry County. This is the fifth time in two months that she has threatened to take me to court. Guess what I have an atterney who is sueing another debt collector, and this one will be next. It is a Fraud. They are trying to scare you into paying. Not me.
- MARY.. replies to cindyj| 1 replyI keep getting threatening calls from all these numbers for a payday loan....I am scared to death
- Kesh replies to army1I got a call from an Adam Smith with a very strong Indian ancient. He called and asked to speak to someone I know does not work for our company and he go upset and said enjoy my 1,000 calls and hung up. And he literally called 91 times when we threatend to get the police involved, since he said this person committed a crime he stated that we were wasting his time and money and he hung up and continued to call when we told him to talk to the police who were here by then he hung up and has not called back since.
