Fake payday loan collection scams - Please list new numbers here.

Got a call from a Steven Weinberg saying he was a lawyer from GCR Associates on my cell several times saying I owe on a payday loan. He left messages on my cell telling me to call him back or they were going to start garnishing my wages. I never called back. A week later they called my work and left messages for me to return their call. I called back to see what they would say. I told them I never received any papers from them and until I receive papers I would not pay. They told me they would fax over papers within the hour. I gave them my work fax number and within 15 min I received papers that did not look right. It even told me to go to their website....lol. Which is a fake as well. I made another return call the next day to the number they gave me the day before and they answered with " Hello, who is this?" I gave them a fake name. " Courtney." He told me to hold on. I could hear the guy in the background speak to another guy saying "Courtney is on the phone", the other guy was asking him what I wanted and why would I be calling. The other guy started yelling at the guy who answered the phone saying "Hang up man, why did you answer the phone?" The phone then went silent with elevator music playing in the background. I then hung up. I knew then what I sort of knew before. It was a scam.

One guy goes by the name Steven Weinberg and the other Matthew Weatherfield. They say they are from Green Circle Recovery Group. The number they are calling from is 1-800-405-6992. They even include ext 303 and ext 301.

310-693-2411

This guy has now called my cell and my work phone. He left me a message that if I don't call him or have my attorney call him that he wishes me mercy on what I have to come. I couldn't clearly understand everything, but he only left me a voicemail on one line. Called the # back and got a voicemail.

These people are calling me too telling me that we have check fraud and that we will be put under a warrent if we dont pay right away

I too owe a couple of payday loans, but since they took out all the money ,i lost my job and its been a year now, the loan companies change names and just give to collection agencies to collect, im not paying anyone untill i get a bill for what i owe. In fact ,i have no idea who calls now, they said they didnt have to send me a bill, so  im not giving them a dime untill i see a  bill. that really pissed them off. I will pay my debt when i see the proof they are who they say they are. Heavy accent, could not understand the freak...

"This is investigator mark Roberts. I'm not sure if we spoke. I don't know if this is the second document and message left pertaining to a complaint that was filed against you in my office, letting you misrepresent the check to secure a financial transaction The company that are making this allegation is U. S. Bank National Association along with cash net The matter is under investigation. Apostle Depositories check from Of to crib. If you have no business with my firm have your attorney contact us on your behalf and we can get the ball rolling. There is an option you get this thing settled outside of Court the can save you a substantial amount of money but again I need to hear from you to get a statement, what you're going to further detail. I can be reached at (678) 400-4844 this is Mark Robinson, with the farm a fairly long one. I will basket. Thank you."

I JUST GOT A CALL TODAY AT WORK FROM A ADAM SMITH HE GAVE ME SOME KIND OF CODE   OCS-54236 NOT REALLY SURE WHAT THAT NUMBER IS HE CALLED FROM A 202-400-2598 HE TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A LAW SUITE OUT FOR ME WITH MY SS NUMBER AND I JUST LISTEN TO HIM BECAUSE I WAS AT WORK SO I COULD NOT REALLY SAY WHAT I WANTED TO SAY, THEN HE TRANSFERED ME TO A KEVIN JOHNSON AND HE DID NOT EVEN HAVE MY NAME RIGHT, I CAN HEAR HIM FUMBLING AROUND WITH SOME PAPER IN THE BACK GROUND THEN HE CAME BACK WITH MY NAME READ OFF A SS NUMBER AND ASK IF IT WAS RIGHT I DON'T GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION AT ALL. I''VE BEEN KEEPING A RECORD OF ALL THE PHONE CALLS I PUT A TRACE ON MY PHONE AT HOME I'AM GOING TO MY LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT AND MAKE A REPORT.

I, too, have been a potential victim of the payloan collection scams; and as most of you I am SICK and tired of getting these phone calls.  Why should I have to change my phone number to get them to stop?  But will it ever stop?

My story is way too long to type, but I have filed complaints with the Federal Trade Commission as well as filing a police report, contacing the DA's offices in my current city as well as the cities of the respective area codes from which they are calling from. I have had to take off from my job to try to make this crap stop!  When I eventually stop answering calls and/or returning voicemail messages, they begin calling from another phone number!  Just like every other person on these posts, those who are calling had middle eastern accents but used very, very common English names (Mike Smith, Jacob Brown, Chris Brown, etc)  They refuse to take the hint:  STOP CALLING if you don't want to send me written verification of the 'alleged' debt!!!  I even went as far as asking for the Bar Association number I was given of a man acting as an attorney...but he gave me letters and digits in the number (Bar Assoc. #'s dont' have letters in them, plus the last 4 digits in the alleged number were the last 4 digits of the telephone number from which he was calling!


I was also told by a DA's office that I was the 40th person that called in reference to this happening, but the sad thing is..these people are using legitimate attorney's names they claim to be representing.  That is why I called this particular DA's office,,,,,when is enough enough?

I would be happy to be a part of any suit, program, etc. to bring these people down!  They are messing with the wrong frustrated woman!!!

Does any one get calls from continental legal support? They said I could go to jail threating legal action only want payments via pre paid card I'm broke lost every thing are these people for real.

I did receive something via email as a validation of debt...NOT...email them back and said to send it via USPS and the contract that they keep telling me I signed.  I gave them two weeks to get this information to me so we coild settle this issue once and for all!!!

I received a call also saying i defaulted on a payday loan and that my social security number is being
investigated. I never received any money and I told them to call my bank and he wouldn't listen.
Middle eastern accent too. their phone numbers 512-646-2002 and 951-489-0239 and 714-485-9593

this people keep calling after i applied online for a payday loan but was not approved because i dont have a bank account only a prepaid debit card which i use as a bank because i do have arouting number and bank number that is different from the card i use. but i cannot use it to get a payday loan as it is an online bank is what i was told at the time. that was about probably a month ago and all of a sudden i started getting this calls from mike robinson or derek johnson or the latest ryan something cant remember his last name, but he got upset when i said really you have such a white name yet i cant understand what you are saying after that comment he got really upset!!! i then asked for proof of the loan or what ever he was going on about and he said i already sent you the information and i said i havent recieved anything . i then stated to him my brother works for the FBI and after my brother would check them out if he gave me his information which is some law office but i couldnt understand what he was saying because of his heavy accent he got really upset and started yelling. i then said i was not going to pay anything until he provided me with proof and i hung up. he then called right back to my work 3 times and was asking for my supervisors name and for me but i told him she is not in and my supervisor was not in iether but i would be more than happy to take a message down for him. then he gave me a number which is 214-785-4440 which is out of florida or a florida law firm and he is an officer. after that i recieved onother phone message from same guy but with a different phone number which is 786-401-9900.  i had some other numbers but  i accidently earased them but his name was like i said was derek johnson and mike robinson but that number was a 512 area code from austin texas and he was claiming to be a federal agent from federal investigations  department and some law firm but he would not give me the name of the law firm or the name from where i supposedly got the loan from and said once i paid it they would send me a notification of payment paid in full but they are crazy i am not paying anything because i think i was scammed about a year ago or so i just freaked out and paid them but it was to some law firm by the name Kraytos King & Associates out of jacksonville Florida and the contant person was shelby preston from the state attorney office new york but they might of been okay since they did give the information i requested dont know!!! anyway hope these numbers and names help someone else.
