877-333-7033

I just wanted to report this number. I have been getting seeral calls a day that say I owe money from a pay day loan. I have neer taken our a pay day loan with them. And to try and get the money after FIVE YEARS??? Give me a break. Im worried that they have my SS# though. What is my next step?

Since 2011, I have been receiving calls from this company in regards to a payday loan that I had taken back in 2006. They called my place of employment and spoke with my boss. I contacted them and told them I would have to look into the issue and asked them specific information of the debt they said I owed. I asked information on the loan which included checking account #, check #, check amount, date on check, etc. They told me it was from URGENT MONEY SERVICE dated in 5/06 and that they have been trying to reach me at my physical address since then and have chose to file now in litigation! Come on now, 6 years later? For those of us who have taken out a payday loan before know this is NOT possible! They run the check thru until it clears, etc. I knew for certain this check cleared and the debt was repaid so I brushed it off. Weeks went by in 2011, and they contacted me again. I told them I would place a complaint against their company with the Govenor's office if they didn't stop harrasing me. Low and behold, the phone calls stopped for almost a year!

About 3 months ago, Victoria Simmons called my place of employment again and spoke to my boss (different from 2011). He gave them authorization to serve me papers at my place of employment. They contacted me on my cell phone where AGAIN I requested this information. I told Miss Simmons who stated she was located in Virgina, I would research with my bank to prove that the debt was paid off! I requested all their information, business name, address, fax #, email address, supervisors name, and who the head litigator was since they were threatening to serve me papers. I let it go because I knew it was a scam. For weeks, I got numerous phone calls from them on a daily basis stating "your file" is on my desk and in order to stop this from proceeding further, we need a credit card on file or you will have to pay interest fees, blah blah blah. I simply told the lady - TAKE ME TO COURT but I will prove that I paid the debt and will counter sue for damages, loss of hours off of work to attend this SO-CALLED court! But, can I kindly ask which court you will take me to? Since I live on a Indian Reservation, I asked if they will take me to tribal court? County court? State court? Who will be serving me papers? Who should I expect to be served from? They said, oh we havent DECIDED which court we are going to file in. I told the lady (don't recall her name) "that's odd....your threatening that papers are ready to be served, but you don't know which court I am being summoned to?" She stated "in order to stop the process, this is what needs to be done....we need a payment of such and such. I told her, lady you are not getting any payment from me....I ask you to take me to court! Phone calls stopped for a couple weeks.

Until today, I received ANOTHER phone call from Victoria Simmons (877) 333-7033 stating this is a urgent matter from a loan I received in 5/06 in the amount of $460.00. That the charges have increased to $1,219.23 and that in order to stop litigation, payment would need to be received immediately. I told her that I would look online right away to see if a check had cleared my bank in 5/06 for that amount. We spoke on the phone while I jumped on my home computer and researched. I pulled up my statements in 2006 and there was a check in the amount of $345.00 that cleared around that time, I couldnt see who the check was made payable to and she kept trying to tell me that that was not the amount. I told her, well that's the only check that was written that month. I will request a copy! She then went on into her spiel about "if you can't prove this in court, then i'm afraid you will owe us a huge chunk of change". I asked her specifics on if she could email me a copy of the documents stating it was in the amount of $460 cause all I could see was $345. She said "I dont' have that information. Unfortunately the lawyers don't share that information with us, we are just the litigation team." Yah right! I told her that I would call the bank and email her the check copy and kindly asked her to stop calling my cell phone. She said...."we don't have company email. I said, your a litigation firm and don't have access to email?" She said i'm sorry, but no we do not". After receiving a emailed copy from my bank (I love Wells Fargo) I called the 877 number back and talked to Amanda. She asked for my cell phone number to look up my account. I told her I had emailed copies of the checks and can prove they cleared and that I wanted them to stop calling my phone! I told them the amount and check number. She said that's not why we are calling you....we are calling you on a matter of ADVANCE AMERICA for a check written in 12/6/07!!!! I was extremely pissed because I knew I did not have any loan from any ADVANCE AMERICA and why the hell did they give me other information 20 minutes before? I told her I wanted to talk to Victoria Simmons! She said there is NO Victoria Simmons that works here.....I laughed and said OK, stop with this scam already! She said I will get my boss and ask if there is an email you can send your copies to. A man came on the line, and I told him I didn't appreciate this SCAM they were running on me. That it was heartless and wrong to scam people into paying additional money to this so called litigation team but that I would be happy if they would take me to court so I can countersue on their so-called company for damages as well. He said well if you can prove to us that you have paid off this debt, then we will stop litigation today. I said unfortunately at home I do not have access to a fax machine. Maybe I can mail them to you? (I did not want to give them the satisfaction of faxing it as it would cost me money to go to the nearest copy center to do so). He said, well technically....we don't receive mailed copies. I said "well, thats the only way you will get them from me!" I started to give him a piece of my mind and bluntly asked them to stop calling my cell phone otherwise I would make a complaint in the Govenor's Office for the second time, and he said...I am not going to waste time arguing with you - here is the address.  2926 State Road. Suite 300, Cuyahoga Falls, OHIO  44223 - I looked up this address online......THIS IS TO A UPS STORE LOCATED IN OHIO!

From the Victoria Simmons who called me over a year ago located in Virginia....this company is now located in Ohio? WOW.......MY ADVICE, ASK QUESTIONS AND DO THE RESEARCH YOURSELF! THIS IS A SCAM, UNFORTUNATELY....MY MOTHER WAS A VICTIM OF THIS SCAM AND PAID $240.00 TO SETTLE HER CASE WHEN SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO!!!!

This has been the biggest headache for me, and I hope that NO ONE is a victim of this SCAM any further. I have yet to see if the phone calls will STOP!

Michelle,

I am in the same boat. I don't know if they have my social #, but they do have the last four of my checking account number. I have monitored my credit throughly....my advice is keep an eye on your identity!

A lady and a man  keep calling from 850-270-1987 about some documents that require my signature and some "CASE" but then she say to call 877-333-7033

I too got recorded phone messages from a 484-270-5438 ( spoofed pa number from ohio/) saying the same thing that they had some documents tht require my signature and a case number but then to call 877-333-7033  I googled the phone number now they are Galaxy capital solutions--- they also left a message a couple of days ago with a different call back number. I called back and said stop calling this number - I didn't care that they were looking for me - just said it wasn't me - I had my identity stolen last year and was not about to get into it with people who call and leave these "threatening" messages. Obviously not a real debt collector or they would say who they were calling from and what it was in reference to on a message machine - also when I called back the woman answers the phone - Hello...shouldn't she say her name and the company and how may I help u?

I keep getting calls from a John Lee at work.  My wife called him and asked him to stop calling at work and whatever they needed to send it in the mail.  He was rude saying why does a man need a woman to do his work for him??  I told him I would be contacting the Attorney General's Office in the state of Iowa.  It is illegal to call people at work for collections and solicitations.  He claims I don't know the law.  Sorry to inform Mr. Lee if that's really his name, but it IS ILLEGAL to make calls to people at work, and yes I do know the law!  The complaint has been filed.

These freaks called me from a 206 area code number.  And from reading the notes they seem to have a bank of different numbers to "sound local" and as a result scary.  First off, I had a payday loan that was paid off in full three years ago and ever since I get occasional threats from people trying to sue me for more money.

I'd love to turn them in but I can't find a physical address to turn into the Attorney General's office.  But if you are going to be served papers people don't call you ahead to make an appointment and oddly real lawsuits don't make exasperated threats...they call a few times (a real person) and then file the papers with your local court and go from there.

According to the BBB, this company stated that it dissolved in 2012. So, this goes further to it being a scam. Also, it doesn't matter what state you're in when it comes to zombie debt, as old debts are called. Do not ever agree to pay a debt that is old. If you decide to do this, it restarts the clock on the debt, and the statute of limitations no longer applies to the original debt.

Should you decide to repay any creditor when your financial condition improves, contact the ORIGINAL CREDITOR only.

Everyone experiences financial difficulty at some time and we might not be able to pay on time. Don't let people harass you because of this. Keep your wits about you and take care of your responsibilities as best you can.

You're a scam artist and you've officially been reporting.   You should be ashamed of yourself.  You defintely work for them and honestly you should be thrown in jail.

Called me today, 02/12/2013 on my cell phone. Requested to speak to me but used my maiden name, which I haven't been that name for over a decade. It was a robocall and stated that they had sent paperwork to my employer to be signed, and if I hadn't received said paperwork from my employer that I should call this 877-333-7033. Well, if they truly sent papers to the company that was my employer before I was married, they'll never get them returned because that company went bankrupt and was absorbed by another company in 2003.

I won't be returning this call. I did have a payday loan when I was 19, which my parents paid off when they found out what I had done. My cousin is an attorney and has informed me on more than one occasion that even if my parents hadn't paid that for me, the statute of limitations has run out and this is an illegal attempt to collect a debt that is no longer legally able to be collected.

A man by the name of Glenn Jackson call me from this number.. they want me to verify and sign off on documents to require my signature this is a scam please don't give any information then on another toll free number then on another toll free number another man calls from the area code 678 what the same information. I google all phone numbers that come across this is a land line call please try not to do any transactions online with your social security number and date of birth and any employment work numbers scammers are out there everyday looking for that information.

Have been calling my Human Resources department.

I've had numerous robocalls from various numbers including local area code.  Messages ask for a person by name who I have never heard of.  I've had this phone number for at least 5 years.  They make reference to giving some sort of statement before they take "further action".  They instruct me to call the 877 number.  

I decided to call back so they'd quit filling my voicemail with recorded messages.  I promptly got a person on the line after pressing "1".  I told him I was getting repeated calls and did not want to be called anymore.  He was polite, asked for my number, and said I was being removed from the list.  He didn't ask anything else about me or my case (I had a case # ready, if necessary).

Or it's Randy Zaffran again! Hi RANDY! Scamboy at it again?

Report them to the FTC!!

Report them to the FTC

I love your description of them!! perfect let's put these street walkers back to their real jobs!  Just a little bit of information to also help-if  you have an email account with yahoo and used it with any payday loan company
chances are good your information is out there for anyone to see.  Scammers use information they find in emails from payday loan customers by hacking into their email. They have machines that use random numbers and letters to open your account and viola there is all of your information. You should go through all emails and delete any sensitive info with your ssn#,work number,cell number, that came from those companies. Keep up the fight!

It would be a good idea to change the password to your email account and work email account often they employ hackers to help them access your account when they know for sure it is legit.  I was on vacation for a whole week did not use my email.  I finally checked it and noticed I had logged into my account twice and tried to send about 20 emails to old payday loan companies from years back. Erase any traces of personal information or identity from your account and if possible get a new email account with another company.
