I just spoke with "mark decker"  and he tried to tell me that if i didn't pay the money that he was gonna file with da and that they would be serving a warrant. When i asked him questions he got vary rude with me and said that he was gonna terminate the call. This is a scam. I filed a police report and advise that if this happens too you you do the same.

Hey there...did you send him anthing or call him back...told me just now that I had a debt with cash central that I didn't pay back...I called them and they looked up my acct by name, last 4 of ssn, phone number and found nothing ever......I gave them the guy's number, his name "Mark becker" and they said the supervisor will be calling me and that it would never be a felony, because it isn't criminal, but civil to not pay back a loan.

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.

Me 2

I got a call from a mark Decker , his number is 210-702-3850 is this a scam artist ? He said I had to pay 537 dollars in 2 hours or I would get criminal charges.?? For a debt that happened in 2010. He said he was with the court.

Called numerous times..claimed that I owed money on a payday loan. Said his name was mark Decker and threatened me with criminal charges If I didnt pay him 1000.00 . He was very rude and nasty and he ended up hanging up on me once I tried to verify info

Tried to tell me I owed money from 5 years ago...refused to provide any proof...threatened criminal charges ...

This is a scam to extort money from you on fake charges.  The caller is probably NOT in the United States and that 202 area code is faked. IF you really were in trouble, you would not be advised of an arrest.  These thieves will tell you that for X dollars they will make the charge go away.  Of course there is no charge against you.

said they are drug task force  scared me did not explain have not been in trouble with drugs  need this check out feels its a scam. Did id himself as a agent.  out of san Antonio drug task is out of Washington Dc
