Fake payday loan collection scams - Please list new numbers here [2]

WOW.  Apparently, Rachelle Hicks monitors this site and has just read my post above.  She called me from a blocked number to tell me she is signing off on my Federal Warrant right now.  This woman is obviously deranged and hasn't read what the Arizona Attorney General has to say in the FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT and what it prohibits (threatening to arrest you, falsely claiming you committed a crime. I'm not scared of you.

What kind of legitimate law firm monitors a site a like this and a thread for consumer fraud reports about themselves????  A fraudulent company, perhaps?

These people are unbelievable, aren't they? When confronted they STILL hurl threats at you and still call and still harrass you for bank information and confirmation of your personal information.  If it was so easy to get a Federal Warrant for one's arrest I could have put an end to the fraud who has filed income taxes for the past 4 years using my social security number.  LYING SACKS OF DOODOO!!!!!!

Rachelle Hicks--you and the people you work with should really get together and come up with a company name you all agree on.  The firm name you gave me does NOT exist no matter how well you and your coworkers lie.  Even if you WERE calling from an actual legal firm, it is still illegal for you to repeatedly call and harrass individuals after they have told you not to.  The Attorney General of the State of Arizona told me that.  Even with the well-written script with which you are provided, you are still an ignoramous; and it shows the moment you are interrupted and have to deviate from the script at all. Oh no!  I'm gonna get arrested for sure now!!!!!    The gig is up.

I was contacted by 707-520-7535, a man going by the name of "Andrew Johnson" but had a thick middle eastern accent; stated he was an agent from the Financial Fraud Prevention Crime Unit and that their client was filing a fraudulent claim against my social security number. I called them back and got another guy named "Carl Miller" who had the same accent and he said he was Andrew Johnson's supervisor. I asked him what this was about and he wanted me to verify who i was, i told him he knew who i was because he called me. So then he goes "so this is Brad?" then i asked him what this was a bout. he had all my information and said that i had given their client my bank account information and that it was false, and if i didn't confirm the account numbers with him, he would be forced to turn my ssn into the courts and i would be sued and do possible jail time. i asked him what bank he was talking about...he gave me the name and i said that was the bank account i use. then he asked for confrimation numbers. i told him that i would not give my numbers to someone i can't understand. he got upset with me and started calling me names, said he was going to call my employer and all my family and tell them that i was a theif and a fraud and a criminal. so i asked him who his client was, he said he couldn't give that information out. so i asked him the street address of his company and he wouldn't give that out and began insulting me again. so i told him to talk to my lawyer and hung up.
he called me several times and still does demanding the name and number of my lawyer. so i gave him the name and number of the Minnesota Attorney Generals office. No calls back yet. i also reported them to the FTC and ran a credit report and put a freeze on it so that no one can open a line of credit with my social security number without having a password to unfreeze it. it's a pain in the butt...but worth it.

on these boards.  Most of all-----PLEASE, put credit alerts on your files.  Immediately.  These dirtbags have all of your information.  They attempted to open up a checking account with my social, processed a cash advance, and I guess would have withdrawn it and had it under my name.  Luckily, I acted swiftly and notified the financial institution, and credit agencies.  You HAVE to also file a police report.  You have no clue as to what lengths these a**wipes will go to smear your credit report etc.  Also request a copy of your credit report.  They will be caught trust me.  And lastly----as other posters have stressed-----DO NOT answer any calls, and attempt to call them back.  It worsens the situation.  Please notify your references, employers and family that this is a total scam from LOSERS and to ignore all calls that arent recognizable..  I'm watching and waiting for their total shutdown.  Several call centers have been shut down---but I see there are still some out there......Alerting FCC. BBB is cool, but in my opinion takes too long and in the meanwhile, your identity is being stolen.

institutions look into shi#  like this.  They live for it (Banks/Credit Unions etc).  Dont these idiots get it?  Go ahead open up accounts and get the wire fraud process up and cracking......what a bunch of   shi#heads......Karma is a beyatch   Are they that dense, were they that neglected as children, no friends to play with perhaps....Mom and Dad hit the sauce on the regular?  Have/had you had the desire to date or marry yourself and you turned yourself down cause you cheated on yourself?  What happened?  I refuse to believe no morals and greed are the real reasons....

Come on----share!!!!  Help a person out.........Jeez.....

Frank, I can't stress to you enough, PLEASE DON"T SEND THEM ANOTHER DIME!!!!!  I'm sure you, like the rest of us, work very hard for your money, don't let these low life [***] scare you out of it!  I have been ignoring their calls lately, and haven't heard from them in a little over a week.  I know they will call again, but I will deal with that when it happens.  You WILL NOT go to jail Frank!  Please take care and stay strong!!!!

Heavily accented Mid Eastern woman.  I could not understand the LONG message she left.  I only understood my husbands name and barely at that!  I understood lawyer and I understand do not disregard this message!  She called twice within 15 minutes yesterday!

My husband was looking for a payday loan company, he got one, however, he didn't give permission for all these scammers to call us!  Thing is he doesn't know as much as I do about the internet, so he's thinking these are real and is getting his nerves so upset!  We can't afford to pay anything! lol

I filed a complaint with the FTC and I will be adding a fraud alert to all 3 of the credit bureaus.  I don't want to call the police, as all this is online, so I doubt they will do a thing to help! lol  I'm reporting what I can to who I can because I know his info is out all over the net!  

We've even had money drop into our account and not know where it came from!  So we closed our bank account and we kept the money!

Anyone receive call from regional arbitration...same harassment

What about a 713 number said they was taking legal actions even had my social said I would get charged with fraud is this true

Is there any chance you DO owe the money?  Maybe an old, forgotten debt?  If you owe the money, pay it.  

Ask them to give you proof, in writing, that you owe the debt.  If they can't prove it you don't owe it.

New number 567-248-2771... Indian man named "Daniel Rich" lol! He saying the same thing that everyone is writing in this thread. He keeps telling me a Sheriff will come and arrest me...and then he says Good Luck. I was afraid that I did owe them money so I paid $250 with a loaded cash card, so that I would have proof of payment. However, 3 days later I call to make sure everything is paid in full and they tell me that they are rejecting my payment and will reimburse me at the court house. I think they couldn't get the $250 of the card because originally they wanted me to pay with a Money Pack but I don't even know what that is and I wanted proof of payment. I may have to change my phone number, because I am sick of these people. It making me dislike all indian people and that is wrong.

NO IT ISN'T!  It's a scam, just like all the rest of us are talking about.  First things first; contact your financial institution IMMEDIATELY and inform them of what's happening.  Then contact the credit bureaus and place fraud alerts on your credit files.  Report these jerks to the FBI, IC3, and the FTC (there are links in another post), and possibly your local law enforcement agency if you've sent them any money or given them any financial/personal information; identity theft is a very real possibility at this point.  I guarantee they'll use anything they have.
Keep track of any and all numbers that call you with these threats,  the times and dates they've called you, and any names they use, whether it's their name or a company name.  Post them to this website; read all the other posts on this subject to educate yourself about this.  Inform your friends, relatives, and employer of what's happened.
Upgrade your security package on your computer.  It may cost some, but the peace of mind and yes, security are well worth it.
Finally, try not to panic or worry over this; please remember that these threats of jail and/or legal action are EMPTY!  The real threat is to your identity and your finances.

I'd be VERY careful about that money if I were you; what you're talking about may actually BE fraud.
