Filing a police report!

SCAM

They called as a Thomas someone, from a law firm, I'm about to report them to the FBI

"Steve Haught"  called our place of employment complaining about an employee, I informed my boss of the call and he then took the call to which he was told that he is the same person that answered the call. I know this wasn't the case because i was still sitting there listening to the call.  My boss was then asked by Steve who was talking in the background, My boss replied thats " "  the original person who answered the phone call in the first place. Steve called him a liar, Then Steve progressed to tell him about an employee. In turn my boss asked to speak with his boss who delightfully got on the phone and acted like a thoroughbred d****ead. My boss hung up and said never answer that call again. We contacted authorities to look into this matter. These people have no filter and should be wrung up by Law Enforcement.I wish them good luck " In Prison"

I made mistake of picking up phone one time and they answered as law offices... Told them I have complained to FTC and local PD and they called 30 more times in a row. Complete scam.. If they call u.. Please file report so they can be stopped

I recieved a call from this guy claiming to be a lawyer trying to sue me for a payday loan that i never got. He knew the last four of my social also called my job. The person was very rude I asked for the company name where i got the loan he stated that he doesn't have to prove anything to me. He stated he would call the sheriff and have me arrested also would call my employer to report me. VERY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL....The person got very hostile and I told him to do what he has to do and I hung up.

Jo,  You cannot fax a cease and desist letter.  I wish everyone would understand that a Fax is not considered a legal document if a need arises.  Nor is an Email.   You should demand written validation of the debt from them via usps.  Not a Fax,  not an Email.   Written validation via usps.  They have 5 days to legally comply. (They can no longer communicate with you until this is provided)    Advise them that you will no longer speak with them until you have received this validation of the alleged debt with all information concerning the Original owner of the debt as well as a copy of any contract that may exist with the original owner.  Tell them that you want all information validated concerning this account including payments made or any other activity and the date of the last and final payment or activity on this alleged account.  (This establishes Statute of Limitations on the alleged debt)  Then stop all contact with them,   have a meeting with your manager or HR people and advise them of what is happening.  Provide them with a letter stating the same. (That's in case you should be penalized or terminated because of this)    If this Scammer,  and that is exactly what unethical collectors who do not follow the FDCPA are)   will not provide you with written validation of the debt or for any reason claims that you are not entitled to it...that means that they don't have any validation.  You cannot be arrested over a civil dispute or locked up.   This is indeed unethical collection practices of an alleged false debt,  or a scammer at work  (Both the same).   Not a thing can be done by him.  Just scare and harassment tactics.

It is interesting to note that American Cash Advance is not actually a lender.  When a person sends in a application,  they sell it to potential lenders.  (Usually sleezy ones)   Your name is also sold on a list by American Cash Advance.  Go to their website and read all of the privacy notices and fine print.  
Anyone who does business with them is going to regret it later.

SAME MESSAGE AS OTHERS ON PAGE> THREATS< SWEARING< YELLING

Speaks with accent, hard to understand

Received a call today at a business number asking for someone who doesn't work here. Caller gave the following number: 215-758-9869; stated his name was Alex L - couldn't understand the last name. Possibly "Law," Indian or Pakistani accent. As with others who've gotten these type calls he used threatening tone and added "Good luck ..." if you don't call back.

Received several phone calls from them.  Very harrasing and insulting. Unfortunately I sent money that I know I dont owe just to have them stop calling me. Now the fight to try to get it back.

Got a call from this number and I couldnt understand what the guy was saying so i hung up and then he called back 3 times and left a message saying I owe money and I will go to court if I do not pay. So I called back and spoke to a "lawyer" and he said that he will see me in court and I got a loan for $300 that I never paid back which is not true!

I too received called from this person claming to have a lawsuit against me.

This number keeps calling our office line. First name "Mike" and can't make out the last name. He has a heavy accent, there is background noise like he is in a call center. He is looking for one of our independent contractors. I tried to explain after he got rude that his messages weren't being passed to the contractor, that the person is a 1099 contractor, not an employee. I called back and the phone was answered "Law Offices". I told the gentleman that I was calling on behalf of my contractor and that I would like them to stop calling our office line. He stumbled over his words as he asked "why do you want us to stop calling?", quickly put me on hold and then I was disconnected. I called back and it went straight to voicemail. I hope they get the point. We have jobs to do, lives to live and we don't need the harrassment. The contractor said it's in reference to a 6 year old payday loan that he says is untrue. He gave the phone number to his attorney but they will not answer his attorney's calls.

never did any business with the supposed counts against me from american. who they say they represent. these people have my info. that's scary. i am going to devote some time to running them into the ground. wish i had money for an attorney. according to them and the money they claim i took. i should. lol. i'll add to others who filed complaints with fbi and local authorities.

This number has called my cell starting at 5:30am pacific time. I get to work and there is a message on the company voice mail in regards to me. My boss returned the call, telling this person to not call at work that I am not allowed to take personal calls at work. He then proceded to call back 15 times! My boss answered and said we can do this all day if you want! He called 10 more times and then stopped. OMG!!! I was so freaked out, even though I knew it was a scam he got to me.

Got a threatening phone call from a "David Jones". He was very demanding.said he need a certain of money by 2:00pm. He wouldnot except any kind of payment arrangment. Said he had 3charges against mr and i would b considered a felony.  Had me in tears until my husband and i googled the phone numbe. And it end up being from a RC Telecom. Thank god i hadn't sent them any money.

Someone named Mike Wells with a thick accent called threating to take me to court  becauseof a debt I owe. He never said who the debt was for and kept cutting me off. He had my name, social and an old address. I told him until he gave me the company's name who I owed the debt to he could go straight to hell. Mr. Wells said good luck and he'll see me in court then hung up. This was 5 days ago, I haven't gotten another phone call since. I believe this is a scam.

Called me several times, they were very rude and claims that I did a bank scam! And that they were taking me to court!  They had my social as well as my address!

Harrassment name calling saying that i had 3 charges pressed against me and asked me for money.. Flipped out and cussed me out..I'm calling the police.

We just switched our phone company and have had our cell phones for not even 30 days yet. My husband continues to get harassing call from this number saying that I- his wife- owe them money and that they are calling on behalf of some sort of Law firm. This was shut down by my husband saying if his wife owed money he would know. They then start calling him swear names. They have since called using a foreign man, foreign female and then today when my husband threatened to turn them into the State Attorney, they called back FROM THE SAME #....and an American male started asking my husband how I liked him in bed last night!! Now he just hits the IGNORE key on the phone. Eight more calls since 9am.

I CALLED THE NUMBER AS REQUESTED BY A CITIZEN OF OUR CITY.  HE HAD BEEN INFORMED BY THE CALLER THAT A WARRANT WAS ISSUED BY THE CITY OF MABANK AND HE WAS TO BE ARRESTED UNLESS HE WIRED $200 TOTHE JAMES MORGAN COMPANY.  HE HAS BEEN HARRASSED AT HIS JOB IN DALLAS AS WELL.    I WAS CURSED AND TOLD THAT THE FORMER DEFENDANT WOULD CONTINUE TO BE HARASSED.  THAT I HAD NO AUTHORITY.  OUR CITY SECRETARY INFORMED THE POLICE CHIEF AND THE CITIZEN THAT THIS IS A SCAM.

The benjamin law firm keeps calling my cell and work number. How they got either one I don't know. They threaten me and tell me I am going to jail. I told them to quit calling. I told them I was going to report them. He started yelling at me and saying he would put me in jail and did I not care if I went to jail. He continues to call and harrass.

Yes I been recieving a phone call from this number also claiming that I have a lawsuit out against me!  They ask that u don't disturb them while they explain the law suit they ask if my last four was correct I told them no and what was this about. So he went to explain I had a suit from Cash USA I let him know I never did any business with this company and he said I was going to jail and started using profane language I hung up the phone!  What other way can I report these harassment calls!!

THIS IS A SCAM AND DO NOT RESPOND TO THEM. CONTACT LOCAL POLICE. THIS GUY DOES THIS FOR A LIVING.

I started receiving these calls 2/19/13, at work! I have asked for a fax number to fax a Cease and Desist letter and they will not give me one. They are very threatening and harass you. I advised not to call me at work and they continue. This is ridiculous! Very rude, I was nice at first, then I had to get "persistent" so they hung up on me and called right back at work  again, several times today. I am reporting to BBB but how can I get them to stop calling my work now? I just called them back from my cell phone, they read me my "rights", could not tell me who the lender was, which I do not owe any, but wanted me to send them $756.00 today or I will be arrested and that they will call my employer and speak to my boss and get me fired and for me to be prepared to be arrested. I advised that I am the Supervisor at my employer and his response was in my "f***ing" dreams and hung up.

I have been recieving this call for about three weeks now. I have tried to get rid of them with every tactic. I have never let them to get to the point where they threaten about some money. I have tried to be nice, then I fuss and cuss at them and they just keep calling every day for me to be even meaner the next day.  They had different phone numbers some days, but the same type of people called each day.My best soultion came when google what to do with these type of calls.

I just got a call from this people called American Cash Advance try to get me to pay money that I dont owe them be aware going to report them. To business Beura its a scam to get u to pay the guy I got a call from name is Steve.

Thanks for the info Mike!
