They are harrassing me.. saying they are a law firm,, threatening to take me to court.. saying i have fraudalent charges.

I would like to talk to you about this

Curious if anyone recently has received a call from 877-818-1573 - They say I owe a debt to check n go and are going to come arrest me today.

Anyone recently receiving calls from 877-818-1573 - They say I owe a debt to check n go and are going to come arrest me today or will put a warrant out for my arrest or they will make arrangements for me to turn myself in but wanted me to find a large sum of money for them to talk to the client and stop legal actions.  If I owe something I will more that gladly pay it n make it right .. but not be harrassed and my job and freedom threatened... think if I don't have a job how are you going to get paid???  They sent me a email with a statement for payment with the day we talked date on it ... nothing else but a penal code letter also.  However they transferred me to several people with in the business and they keep saying that their business is not a collecting agency they are working as a server for the legal action for the company that I owe .. C & G Enterprises.  Capital Compliance Processing  P.O. Box 3136 Austin, TX  78701 with an EST phone number.  02/28/2014

Yes I have been threatened by this Capitol Compliance as well. Saying I had a bank account with a bank I've never had an account with and told me I had taken out a loan with EZ Loan Company for an amount of almost $1000 dollars. This was supposedly back in 2010! 4 flippin years ago! Told me if I didn't pay them they would turn my file over to my states prosecuting attorneys and that I would have a felony warrant placed for my arrest. Or I could turn myself in. Or I could pay half the amount today and then I would have a week to pay the rest. They also sent me an email that looked like anyone could have typed up. The email was dated for today. I called them back asking for all documentation they had and asked if they could mail it to me. I asked for a copy of the check I supposedly wrote and a copy of the contract I signed with the loan company. I was told they couldn't send that info to me. I spoke to a woman named "Kelly Morris". Her direct line she told me is 5123792123. This is a [***] scam.

Glad consumers are seeing though these lies.  Debt is a civil matter, not a criminal matter.  While you "can" be sued over a debt, you can't be arrested for it.  However, when people file civil suit, they don't call to warn you first, they just file.

Also, don't let any bottom feeding maggot who "think" they know the law try to tell you differently.  Even if your loan was secured with a posted dated check, that check is not covered under "hot check" or "bad check" statutes.  

Debt is civil, not criminal, so their threats to arrest you are not only false, but illegal!  Per the FDCPA. you should not pay any caller who refuses to MAIL - do not accept email or fax - a debt validation letter which would state what the debt is (original creditor, date of loan, amount of loan, balance still owing and date of last payment).  It would also state if the caller has the legal right to collect said debt.  Refusal to MAIL this documentation is a violation of the FDCPA and you should not pay them.  A bill or invoice is NOT proof that you owe the caller a debt.  Please do report your callers to the FTC, FBI and your state's Attorney General.

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.

Same exact thing happened to me. Same company, email, and threats. So, this definitely is a scam?

Yes it's a scam. You can't be prosecuted or arrested for debt. Read Elspeth's post above then report these criminals to the authorities.
