Yes, let them know from them moment you identify yourself that you are recording the phone call, also let them know any other communications & all phone numbers from this point on will also be recorded because you feel threatened and that you feel you are being scammed and until they can provide you with legal documents proving who they are and what they are trying to collect you will not send them any money per the FBI . (this is what I was told to do by the FBI) This deters alot of these scammers from calling over and over. Get a cheap recording device and use it! Call your local police and file a police report as well as the 3 major credit bureaus and the social security department cause they have your numbers. The FBI website also has an email link on their site to identity theif crimes. You can email them as well. This is a classic scam where you have sent your information online to someone and these people have it.WHATEVER YOU DO, DONT SEND THEM A PENNY!

I just got off the phone with the same person I think. They told me to come up with bail money because I was going in front of the judge tomorrow morning. He couldn't/wouldn't fax me any information about the loan I suppossedly took out last year some time. too went over my bank statements from he beginning of the year and found nothing. The jerk hung up on me many times. I called anoher number and it sounded exactly like the first guy, heavy, heavy accent. I asked to speak to someone I could understand and he hung up once again.
I have a heart condition and do not need this kind of crap.

I also had a call from usa cash, a Dom Harris, said I owed for a cash advance loan which I didnot apply for. This was very unerving because he had some personal information, I even went as far as checking all my bank transactions for 4 months prior. He had a thick accent and I was threatend with arrest. How do you stop this? I call usa cash and left a message to their fraud dept. (there number is [protected]) I suggest that if enough people call maybe they will do something to protect their name. As one person I do not have the power to stop them .

Don't give any information to these people. I too have been dealing with this for quite some time now. I finally was able to ascertain they are calling from two Islands in the Carribbean. If you pay close attention to the background noise, it sounds like they are calling from a public place and when they say they will connect the call to someone else, they basically hand the phone over to someone next to them. Don't live in fear of losing your job either. Let your boss know. What I did was submit a letter to my corporate HR office basically informing them I am a victim of Identity Theft and an illegal debt collection scam. I furnished documents including testimonials from this site and the BBB website where they verify this SCAM is real. I also submitted a copy of the statement from the President of the Legitimate US Cash Advance location in Kentucky. I answer the phone where I work so for me it easy, I just hang up on them. If they call another extension, my co workers are aware and pretend to take a message. What gives them away is the heavy thick accents. I hope this bit of information helps to put you mind at ease.

I received a phone call yesterday from a John, phone # [protected]/28/10 stating that I needed to return the phone call with my attorney and this matter was urgent. I called back on 10/29/10 and "Shawn" stated that I owe money and if I do not repay or come to an agreement to pay by today that I would have to pay $6000 and attorney fees on a loan that I took out in Feb or March of this year. I asked how much was the loan for and "Shawn" told me that it was between $300 - $500. He aslo stated that if I agree that this was an oversight on my part that that at the time of the repayment I was in financial herdship that he would complete an OCCR for me so that I could "get out of " oweing $6K. The amount presented was $735 which included lated fees and penalties for non-payment. What I found very weird was that he stated that I had been contacted via email and mail in regards to this matter and I never responded. Couple of things: 1) Never took out a payday loan with this company 2) Never received notification about oweing any money 3) This in fact was the first I was hearing of this and I was asked if I had an attorney and that I would need to get one. I basically told him that I do not owe any money and that I would call him back as I needed to do some more research on my part. I checked my account and never received cash during the time frame mentioned or owed any outstanding funds. The individual I spoke to today had a heavy middle eastern accent.

Cash Advance USA loan

I received two phone calls back-to-back from a [protected]#, of course its a unknown # so i didn't answer. and also i have mr.number caller id installed on my phone and it came up as a suspected telemarketer. anyway they called me at work and said that i was being sued. he said i owed us cash advance 482 and if i didn't pay it would end up being 5000 after court. he knew my address my social and my bank info so i thought it was legit. but then he began to read me the affidavit. I NEVER HEARD OF THAT BEING DONE, I THOUGHT THEY WERE MAILED OR BROUGHT TO YOUR HOUSE BY THE SHERIFF. as he was reading i asked him to slow down because i couldn't understand his {indian} accent. he told me to shut up and listen. O NO. if you're reading me important legal info i should be able to hear it. so i asked for a supervisor. wasn't any more helpful because he was just as bad. so i asked him to tell me the name of the company i owed. he said us cash advance. we argued more and he hung up.

Later that evening i called back the number they gave me [protected]). i asked for the name of the company. they told me us fast cash international ( which is clearly not what i was given before). they asked for my name. we argued and i asked for a supervisor. he was in a meeting. this wasnt good enough for me i wanted to speak to him then. i asked for the name of the company and he said something COMPLETELY different from the first two. so i told them they were lying and could't get their lie together. he said the police was coming to my house and hung up on me. that was two hours ago. im still waiting... lol. they picked the wrong one to mess with this time!

Cash Advance USA telephone harrassment and soliciting

A man claiming to be from U S Cash Advance called my home phone claiming that i owed for a payday loan. He first said that I went to a local office and then changed and said that I did it online. He had a Middle Eastern accent and could not even say his words correctly.

These are the phone numbers they are calling from [protected];[protected];[protected]; the names given are Don Douglas, John Micheal, and Mr. hansen. They are relentless and will keep calling if you dont even owe money. I just moved into a new home in march. They told me that the loan was done in december. they had all of my new information. my new address, phone, and everything.

Do not put any card info, personal info, nothing online. They called my home when I was at work and harrassed my children telling them that I was at home and my daughter called me at work very upset and crying. I immediately got angry and called the FBI. I got the information as to what I need to do.

Please register on the do not call registry. go to the federal trade commission website and report this harrassment.

Cash Advance USA Didnt pay back loan I NEVER took out

I received a phone call tonight from someone saying that i had taken out a loan in Dec. 2009 and never paid it back. First I DID NOT take this loan out and I NEVER got any money from this company. They say I have a choice, pay back the money, mind you i NEVER RECeiVED THIS MONEY IN MY BANK ACCOUNT, or i would have to pay $5, 000 and change if i loose the case! And tell my job what is going on. I don't think so. Now i have to go to my bank and git the proof from almost a year ago that i never got the money. The man, whom i could not understand clearly and i asked quite a few times if there was anyone that spoke better english then him and he stated NO, did not give me an address nor tell me when i was going to receive the paperwork on this case...so u tell me...fact of SCAM!

These people that are calling about these payday loans are frauds and scammers. Do not give out any information. Just hang up on them. I know this for a fact. They have been harrasing me for over a year now but I know I do not owe this money and no authorities have been to pick me up like I was told and as a matter of fact, you can not be arrested for owing money, only sent to collections. Please don't fall for it... Tell him (them) to go to HELL!

Cash Advance USA payday loan scam!!

I am a hardworking married woman raising our 4 children... I am driving to work this morning - I get a call... bluetooth on - I answer it. She then proceeds to tell me that I took out a loan for $350.00 and I am being charged on 4 counts of fraud.. that a police officer is on his way to come an arrest me. At that point I pulled over... shaking with anger - I asked her where she was calling from... she wouldnt give me the name of the company - I asked her when did I take this loan out? she wouldnt even give me an exact date of when I so called took this loan out - she said some time in 2009... I told her that if this is a debt that I owe I am more than happy to pay it but I have never gotten anything in the mail regarding this issue... she stated that she emailed me - first of all if you owe money and they are trying to get that back they will not send an email... its called certified letter! Its called you have to go through Civil Court and go through the proper channels to sue anyone - these people need to get a clue and if they are living in the USA try reading our rights... then maybe you would know that what your doing by calling and harrassing hardworking people is against the Federal Law - I was yelling at her telling her to let the cops come an arrest me that I have rights... and bring the media too so they can know what you all are doing.
Beware DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION - THIS IS A SCAM! if you truly owe a debt they dont collect a debt like this - I just spoke with the Edmonds Police Dept of Washington and he stated that police DO NOT come and arrest you for oweing a debt - its a CIVIL MATTER... she then transfers me to an Unit Officer Tom Obrien mind you with an Middle Eastern accent.. doesnt he know Obrien is an Irish last name? what an idiot - anyhow begins to tell me that I owe this I need to pay my debt that I am irresponsible and worthless... he then proceeds to tell me that the Police will be coming to get me soon - LOL They called me at work and left a horrible message... they called me on my cell numerous times from [protected] which is I think San Francisco area then he gives me an [protected] a North Carolina - I am pissed! I cannot believe people can do this - there needs to be a law against this sort of thing... its not right that people can call and harrass a hard working person like this - look if I owe a debt I will pay it - give me the documentation to prove this but if you dont have a date for me or information all you scammers can go * (F*^*^&^%) yourself!

Wow! The EXACT same thing just happened to me today except they called me AT WORK! I told them almost word for word what you told them as well. The guy I talked to was "Craig Miller" but also had a middle eastern accent. I am going to my bank to change all of my accounts so that they cannot access them. Cannot believe that I was stupid enough to let my personal information out online...word to the wise...never ever give out your info online...learn from my mistake.

Cash Advance USA fraud/scam

OH MY GOSH! This very same thing has been going on with me for the last 3 days. Stating I owe $300 for an online cash advance from back in November. Your story is almost verbatim, except I talked to an additional guy named Danny who wouldn't give me his last name and he is supposedly the supervisor. I got additional calls from these two numbers [protected] and [protected] oh and the UNKNOWN CALLER. When I asked for details on this specific loan such as the website I was to have supposed to have done this through and the date they could not give me any information and got REALLY irritated with me for questioning them. I got hung up on a couple of times and called back to speak to a supervisor and he (Danny) told me he could not give me any information or he would loose his job and hung up on me.
I to am filing a complaint with the FCC, State Attorny General, and the Federal Trade Commission... they also stated they were calling from New York City.

I am going through this as well. I have talked to a Carlos Williams and Keith McNulty. The number that I received does not work. They say they are from ACS (Affidavit Consolidation Services) and they are calling with a loan that I have from Advance Cash USA but they cannot give me any information and they are harassing me at work and they are calling the main line of my job asking for my supervisor. When I told them that I was going to call the cops, they hung up.

Wow, this has happen to me as well. They stated I owe $300 for an online cash advance from CASH ADVANCE USA in March of 2010. What's funny is when I called my bank it showed that I didn't open my account till July of 2010. I talked to a person which said he was an officer and that my file would be downloaded to the county in which I lived and 3 charges was going to be filed against me and that they needed my lawyers information if I wanted to go to court. So I asked for details all they gave me was the bank that the money was supposed to be deposited and the month and date so I contacted my bank that's when I found that my account wasn't open til July and no such depoist's was made. So I called the number back told them that my lawyer wanted them to mail all documents of said deposits and warrants. Well they claimed they couldn't mail any information I needed to give them my lawyers info and hung up. Well I tried calling the number back and now it's says the code or codes I have dialed in incorrect, and I haven't got anymore calls from them.

Cash Advance USA Fraudulant Debt Collection

I have been reading all the complaints against US Cash Advance. I have been contacted by these so called Middle Eastern people callingu and claiming we owe US Cash Advance and that we are being sued for check fraud, and deception. They try to strong arm you and use a scare tactic of sending you to court and try to get you to settle with you ever the phone. Don't give these people anything! I did my homework on this. They are calling from all over the country. I also checked out US Cash Advance. They do not do any cash loans over the phone, by fax or over the internet. They only do face to face. Also they lwill only do cash loans for those people who live in Kentucky, Indiana and Cincinati Ohio area. This is nothing but a SCAM! Let them know this if any of you get called back by one of these creeps.

Jayboi7- I've had several more calls from them but other than that no I've not had any other correspondance. I did tell them that i was contacting my attorney the last time i talked to them. They called back after this and my husband answered told them he was recording the phone call and that they sounded like a scam and they had the wrong number and i've not even had a phoen call since then. Also our local police station told us that these phone calls are made with a router from other countries to threaten people so they are not even in this country. The police also told us they would call them back for us and explain the laws of our country about fraud and threatening people and such. We haven't had to do that yet though. I would just keep a close eye on your accounts and make sure to let your banks know what is going on. If you do see anything that is fraud you can contact the credit bureau and they will get you a form called a fraud affidavit which you send into all three credit facilities and this will put a hold on all your credit accounts so that they can't use them. it is bothersome for you however it's better than paying a large debt that's not your own. you also if need be, can change your social securtiy number through the social sec office. I don't think you will have anymor issues though. There was another lady in my office that was getting the calls at the same time as me also. She never got anymore either. She told them the same as me that she would call her attorney. They quit calling her after that.

I also was almost scammed from these very rude and hateful people. I however called my original loan place and asked them to look up my information. They sent me confirmation (receipt) emails for my pay offs. Just so I would have them. These people call from all kinds of numbers (probably some kind of router) my loan company did tell me that they were working to try and locate these people and press charges on them. Please be advised that they can NOT take you to court or get you fired. If you are getting calls you can contact your local States Attorney for legal advice as to how to press charges in your area. The fact that they are threatening anyone is a federal offence. It is illegal in all states for a collector to threaten or cuss at you in any way. A real attorney knows this. These people just think they can't be caught and are preying on those of us that are down. Please push back. Contact your local police department. Turn in all the phone numbers and if you can voicemails that you receive. The more information that we can give the law the better chance we all have of getting these people caught. Take care of yourselves and don't let them scare you. They are fake collections, attorney's and evil people.

He could not give me a amount or anything just that these people are trying to get this money that I don't even know the amount.

I got a call from the [protected] number today.

"John Smith" told me I was being sued and he wanted my lawyers info. I asked him by who and for how much and he refused to answer me. Then I called back and told him I had talked to a federal judge and that I would represent myself. He got very nasty, threatened me, the whole 9 yards. When I told him he was going to be investigated, he started cursing me and when I started laughing at him, he hung up.

Everyone who gets this phone call needs to report them. Hopefully, the federal government can catch up with them and lock them away, like they keep threatening to do to us !

[protected] is the latest number they have used for me. "Officer Robin Johnson", with the Dispute Resolution Center, or something like that. With an accent so thick I can barely understand the message he left. It makes me furious to think how upset I was when they first called about 3 weeks ago, crying on the phone while they acted like they were doing me a favor, letting me settle my 300$ debt that had grown to over 1200 dollars for just 650$. Jerks. One of the few times I wish I can just reach through the phone, y'know? BTW, I didn't pay, thanks to my extremely ticked off husband.

Cash Advance USA tried to sue me for fraud

I recently applied online for a payday loan. I came across Cash Advance Now. I received approximately 3 emails from them stating I had been approved. They were well aware that I have a Prepaid Card. I received an email with all the pertinent documents to print & fax to them to received my loan. Upon opening the documents they sent, all the information was already input & all I needed to do was sign & fax. I spoke with them the day after I faxed the documents & was surprised at the response I received. I was informed then, that they did not deal with the bank, where my card was issued. When I asked why they sent the papers, already filled out & saying they had already spoken with the bank & everything was a "go", instead of informing me at the initial completion of their online application that theydid not deal with this particular bank. To my surprise, I was treated as though I was some kind of idiot. I was talked to with a very unprofessional attitude, called names, hung up on, etc. The very next day, I received the same documents via email again. My response to this was, if they did not honor my bank, then why send the same documents again. I basically forgot about it, never received any funds, etc. Then, to my absolute shock, I received a phone call from an attorney's office, stating that Cash Advance Now, had filed a law suit against me for fraud. I informed this person, how could I have committed fraud, when I never received any funds? I explained the entire situation & also, informed them, I still have the original documents, this company emailed to me, if they needed proof of their dishonesty. In my opinion, this company should be investigated or shutdown. I think they are ones committing the fraud. I can't believe these companies are supposed to help others, when needed, but instead, this one chooses to harass & attempt to destroy a person. If there is anyway they can be investigated, it would surely help a lot of innocent people, like myself, who believe in them, only to have something like this happen. Upon completion of the attorney's call, I was told there would be no further action taken against me & they would be contacting Cash Advance Now for making false statements & basically "wasting their time". I also offered to send the attorney a copy of the bank statement showing no transaction. This company told me in one of their emails, that they already contacted my bank & receive the information needed from them. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T APPLY WITH THIS COMPANY!

There is another company that goes by cash advance, saying they are cash advance now. There have been multiple people with this situation. All persons with these threats need to forward these emails to the address that they are given when they call the actual Cash Advance Now company at !-[protected]. They are trying to get these kinds of fraudulent emails and threats to stop. Because the people that are sending these out are NOT with cash advance now!

Cash Advance USA Harassment calls at home and work

My husband has also been receiving these harassing phone calls. Both at work and at home. At one time I was given the [protected] number and the [protected] number to call back. Today it was [protected]. These people have very strong accents and are hard to understand. They say that my husband took out a loan for $250, they wanted $479 to settle out of court or if they take it to the court house $2847. They guy I was talking to become very angry with me and my husband. I decided to check out this US Cash Advance on the internet and found these complaints. If you get a call from this outfit DON"T give them any information, money and disregard them.

I have been dealing with these SCAM ARTISTS for over a year! I have never recieved a pay day loan from this company, but yet I have these IDIOTS calling me telling me that I have a pay day loan on behalf of U S CASH ADVANCE that has defaulted... I do have pay day loans out there, but none from U S CASH ADVANCE like these scammers are claiming... My situation is alot like all the other enteries I have been reading about... I started getting calls back in April of 2017, these people ( always men) tell me they are with the federal investigation crime network, blah, blah blah... & that i have a legal situation filed against my name & social security number... I advise these people that I don not know what they are talking aboun & they advise that they will have me arrested & warrants issued on me... They have me petrified to the poin that I constantly look over my shoulders! I have reported them to the local agencies in my area... Im most recently have recieved a phone call from someone with the FTC ( who was very helpful)...

The most recent phone call I got was yesterday 5-5-11 from a Stuart Miller- claimed there was a pay day loan in my name... He told me he would transfer me to his supervisor... I hung up... Today I decided to call the number they left on my work voicemail [protected]) The guy answered the phone legal department.. I asked legal department for what company, he asked what my name was, I stated my name & he proceeded to tell me that I had a pay day loan through U S CASH advance that has defaulted I advised him I knew nothing about what he was claiming.. he advised for me to have my lawyer to contact them & hung up on me...

I goggled US CASH ADVANCE, the forst thing that pops up is Telephone Collection Scam...

PLEASE BE AWARE OF THESE PEOPLE... THEY CONTACT ME EVERY 3 MONTHS OR SO FOR OVER THE PAST YEAR!

Received several calls from someone claimed his name was John sounded like an Indian accent. I have gone on line a week ago to get a payday loan. This man proceeded to tell me I needed to pay a 3rd party called an (ACS) $148 in order for them to send me $2017 and it must be wired to my bank. I advised them that I didn't need that much. He insisted that I would get this money. I refused it just sounded suspicious no one just gives out that kind of money. The number I got call from [protected], but he wanted me to go to a Home Depot to purchase a prepaid visa debit card to place the money on there and they would also send that $150 back as well...

Cash Advance USA - Bogus Collections - Scammers!!!

I was told I was speaking with Nathan Davis and the call was regarding a legal matter. I told this "Nathan" that I was not able to receive personal phone calls at work...he then stated it was not...

Cash Advance USA rejected for no direct deposit

Cash advance companies approve you have you send all your paperwork and then reject you for lets say no direct deposit. In the ad it never states you must have direct deposit. Cash advance network is a rip off. They need to state direct deposit needed so they don't waste consumers time. If you work you don't need a bank statement, but if you receive benefits they need bank statement and benefit stub. Thats discrimination.

THis place is the biggest rip off and should be investigated. They charge 120 dollars every time you make a payment to them. Even if you pay the balance in full whether it is the first payment, second, third up to as many until it is paid off. Each payment costs an extra $120. This company is getting away with taking advantage of people in a bad financial situation. This should be illegal.

When I read no faxing, no credit checks. But suddenly here comes the faxing, you need a bank statement, paystub, voided check etc. when all information of this is on the application. Can't seem to talk with anyone. It is a waste of time. I say try and do without. Rip off city. When owe $300 you are charged $390 and when you miss a payment it goes from $300 to $594.
