This is some craziness, just received a call saying I owed 713.41 on a payday loan From 2007, they man named my grandma who is deceased my sister, and my bank all kinds of other information that is old, threeathened me with jail and defrauding a bank, This is such a scam it's crazy!!! I was so pissed off!  I am waiting on these papers, LOL!

I recieved a call yesterday from 347-272-1886 out of New York, the first time I called I got put right on hold for a rep and got as many details as I could about what they 'have' on me, told them I'd call them back after I researched a bit. I called back a few minutes later and the man that picked up the phone was the voice of the man that originally called to notify me of the civil action against me...didn't identify a company name, just answered the phone, "This is so and so"...thought I had the wrong number. Hung up, called back got someone else who didn't say a company name but gave my case number and spoke back with Tanya, the lady I got the info from.

The company they had me listed as working at was one I haven't worked for since 2004, yet the loan was supposedly taken out May of 2008. It also doesn't show up on my credit report as a bad debt despite being told it is an account 5 years old that has accumulated interest...and I couldn't legitimize the company name of Brunson and Associates (the name I had to ask for seeing as they don't give it as an intro..)

I was also working CRAZY overtime in both april and may of that year with the company I still work for and had NO need to take out a loan so I told them to do what they had to do and that I looked forward to meeting the officer that was going to be serving me the full information. It is total BS...they did ask for the last 4 of my social and gave me the name of 2 references I supposedly listed on the account but I did take out a payday loan with a local company in 2004 but it was paid completely off and if I needed one, i could go right back in there for one because my account was in good standing. They are hijacking payday loan info from somewhere and apparantly calling people known to have gotten one in the past to scam them out of money....what a load of BS.

Sorry for the LONG diatribe...so pissed about this b***s***.

I induced the same as above...they a
Got one payment out of me until another company by the name of National Check Mediation services called then I knew it was a scam...I changed my account number, got my money back, and have been calling them ever since leaving messages...one person even left me on hold for an hour until I gave up. I'm still waiting to hear back.

Scam. Alert. Don't send money.  Scam. Alert. Don't respond at all.

Same as all above..2 days in a row. .scarry and how do you know if it is fake?

they said my last name and address said a court date this is not a landline it is wireless number i live in ga. how is this possible

Who ever you people are, you're an embarrassment to the SCAM Society. You belong on comedy central.

the same # has called me with threats of going to jail if acc.he quoted isn't pd..would settle for another amount lower..that my court date is aug.9,2013 at 9:00 a.m. in washington state.well i live in central fla.and with their 25$ voucher she says use it for gas/bus ticket..with 25$ the bus would only let you set there for a little while or maybe 25-50 miles and 25$ for gas wouldn't get me to fla.line..lol
       so at my age they pretty much scared the s--- out of me until my bank sent me the statement and she told me to go on this web site..

Correction on that number, oops!

(207) 710-0717

The exact same thing happened to me yesterday, 7-3-13. In the very same instance as yourself. A automated call to my parents phone number saying all the same bs.

(207) 701-0717

p.s. please ignore the typos!  And...I forgot to list their phone number:
2077100717
207-710-0717

I received a message saying something about fraudulent activity on my ssn, and to call back to clear it up b4 I am summoned; otherwise the case will proceed.  Obvious scam.  But they left it on my Mother's machine so it scared her.  In response to "Speaker," how do you know they have all of that info?  That part does worth me...although I would like to see someone try to use it--lmao!  My credit is TERRIBLE!!!  Nonetheless, I shall file a report with the FCC, and put a fraud alert on my ssn with the credit bureaus.  I'll check out my credit report to make side nothing is out of place.  I recommend you all do the same.  Thanks for the website!

There is no fraud - except for these scammers.   There is no warrant for your arrest.  These scammers deliberately harass people and scare them into paying for debts that they don't owe.   No one gives a heads up that you're going to be served court papers.  The court process server just shows up and hands the papers to you.  They will NOT come to your job or work - if they did you could call the local police department to come pick the scammers up for harassment and intimidation.  Print out this page and show it to your HR dept or manager - make sure they understand you are the victim of harassment by scammers.  This is NOT YOUR FAULT.

Report the calls to the FTC, the FBI and your state's Attorney General.  You may want to also call your local police dept - they get calls about this all the time - they should be able to put your mind at ease.  Also, read about the FDCPA and learn your rights as a consumer - it is illegal to threaten people with arrest, charges, lawsuits, etc in order to collect on a debt (even if the debt is valid).

I recieved the same call at work and on my cell. telling me I owe money and they have a sapina and bla, bla, bla. I had a similar issue last year through e-mail harassment and when I asked for more details and info they get angry and and make more threats. these people truly suck.

Who are these people, they say they have a supeona out for me and they will come to my job, home etc. I had a call like this a while back and nothing never happened. They said its linked with fraud. I am not a fraudelent person at all nor do I understand why they are calling. They called my job. I need my job. Will someone please tell me what to do. Thank you

Received call from 207-710-0717 this morning and I have not a clue who was calling, what they wanted, or to whom they were hoping to reach.

And being the nice person that I am, I probably would have *tried* to listen and not be rude about it but I was unfortunately unable to understand a SINGLE word this caller was attempting to convey.

That being said, I have a little 'heads up' to those who either make these obscure phone calls or those whom hire such callers.

Please... use clear, articulate and understandable ENGLISH. Speak slowly. Clearly. And communicate like a human being.

That is all

These people are roothless the have been harassing me, my neighbors and my employer.  When called back will not give any real information just send money!

Supplemental:
Oh and on another note, you 'boosters, plants, shills at work... DON'T bother to write on this site telling everybody that they are NOT fake, they are real and how you had a nice experience with them and you settled for half... and don't try the old 'OH NOW I have a court date-I got served papers"  None of that $HIT is going to work unless you give the docket number the subpoena number, the court house the court date and the DECISION rendered for your follow up. This has been done on other sites and my lawyer traced the IP address and found it to be the SAME PERSON AS THE SCAMMERS! And nevermind the bull$hit your a professional collector and tell us we should pay our bills. Ive seen that on a million other bulliten scam bords across the country! DON'T BOTHER!

Everybody!!! Keep reporting them to the FTC!!! THEY WANT THE INFO!!!

I have a question for you(s).  How did you find this site?

Most people find this site when they google a phone number that has been pestering them.  How did you land here?  Did they call you?  Did they ask you to post here?  Did they pay you to post here?
1. Your "business with them" is not obvious or relevant.
2.  Not Michael doesn't sound upset, but you do. You also sound evasive.
3.  We're well aware of the function of this site. Its function becomes impaired when spammers and shills are not repelled.
4.  Embarrassment has been risked only by the person(s) slathering this thread for a week in obviously false raves about a debt collector.

The hand behind each accusing finger points three more at its owner ! SCAM SCAM SCAM!

Some robo call scam- yeah right-civil complaint...yada yada yada... REPORT TO FTC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They called me today, looking for someone that want even me, gave detailed information about that person before i even told then who i was, beware.

They called me from this 207 number, as well as: (360)-313-7962 and (971)-404-3078.... They will tell you that there are charges against you or whatever, and that you can settle out of court by paying X amount of money...
It's a BIG FAT SCAM.

They have all your personal info, including SSN, because you put it in when you apply for a PayDay Loan.

I told them to send me the court papers, and I'll go to court! Idiots.

I was told the company is Brunson and Associates about a payday loan i never recieved. The individual yelled at me and threatened jail time. I had spoken with them previously and asked them to send me court papers with a date in the mail. Never recieved them

BEWARE- SAME @$$H0LE Scammers that were using the telephone # 360-313-7962
SAME $hit, Same scammer.

I got this call also and called them back from the number they called me from.  They hung up on me after I told them to locate me by my phone number.  They wouldn't tell me anything about why they called my phone.  So after they hung up on me the first time I laid into them the second time. These calls come from WA, OR, ME, SD. I told them they were a scam and again hung up on me.

I believe this to be a scam.  I keep getting messages from this phone number stating that a civil claim has been filed, summons division, on and on.  Beware!

scam?
