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.

I just received a call from Cash Advance America the number was listed for California they said I would face jail time and that I received a loan and did t pay it back I have never gotten a loan before should I be worried?

You are all correct it is a scam! They got me for $350.00 before I knew otherwise. The company goes by the name of Global Taylor Law office and all of them speak with a heavy Indian accent. They asked me to send the money via MoneyGram but they always supplied different names. So please beware of sending money to these so-called FBI agents that work in collections Samantha Marlin, Leslie Ingram, Crystal Mitchell. And the names of the people handling my case were Tim Wagner, Lisa Kelly, Neil Johnson but all of them sounded like foreigners. So please BEWARE of the Collections for Payday Loan scams.

Anyone can pretend to be anyone, and threaten anything, and as long as they are hiding overseas, nothing will happen to them.  They must be successfully conning someone, cause they keep doing it.

They're just scammers.  All they can do is try to harass and threaten you.

You might harass them back, or tell them you are recording the call for the FBI so please stay on the line while they trace the call.

At some point, it's not worth their time if they know you aren't going to fall for it.

'm going through the same thing! They called me last week saying that they were going to have me arrested for federal fraud charges! And I have never received any loan money from them. Should I be worried?

They are just criminals with cheap phone service, hiding on the other side of the world.
Ignore them.

They did the same thing to me.I called for a lone and they said i have to send them money first 245.00 than they would give me a lone and i said no way.now they keep calling telling me i better pay or else. I made 2 Police reports .The Police officer called them for me.They keep calling& saying i better pay. I never got a dime from them. They telling me ill be sorry if i don't pay.And i never got a dime.

This happen to me and I thought I was the only one they threaten me and I went to the police they were calling from a 510 area code and now they are calling from 315-352-1190 number I tried calling it back but I just got voice mail.

They are a bunch of criminals calling from overseas, probably India, probably via VoIP because it's cheap, and trying to scam and extort money out of Americans for phony "payday loans".  

They may even have information like old account numbers, SSN, DOB, relatives or employers, possibly from pulling credit reports or through skip-trace searches, or sometimes phony on-line payday loan sites, but the alleged debts are entirely phony, or if real, not owed to these crooks.

They are liars.

File a complaint with the FBI, and if they keep calling, record them and tell them the call is being recorded as evidence.  If they have any brains, they will move on when they know you won't be conned.

Warning from the Illinois Attorney General:
http://www.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov/pressroom/2010_08/20100825.html

Warn your friends and co-workers about this scam, so that they don't get conned.

Since they are probably running this scam from overseas, suing them is probably impractical.

They are, however, vulnerable at two points:
1)  Their phone provider.  They may be using VoIP, but most likely use the same carrier even though they may change phone numbers frequently.
2)  Their method of getting the money transferred.

If the scam got that far, how did they say payment should be sent?
Western Union?
MoneyGram?
Other?

If they keep calling, you might try fishing for that information.  

If they are demanding payment by Western Union or MoneyGram, contact FTC to report that, and demand that these money transfer agents post warnings against this particular scam to protect others.  MoneyGram is subject to a consent agreement to warn consumers against fraud, due to involvement by its agents in earlier fraudulent schemes.

Recieved a call from a man named John Nelson, with very thick accent. He put his Supervisor, Anthony Johnson, on the phone, upon my repeated request,  demanding $956 to be paid immediately to a business called Cash Advance America for an alleged loan he claimed my wife failed to pay over a year ago. Never had a loan from them, never heard of them. He said if she didn't pay today that another company called American Law Division had a "senior" attorney ready to file suit against her tomorrow in "Oklahoma Court" for over $4000 after attorney's fee's. He had the last four digits of her social security number. He never could furnish our address. He claimed her employer was also being "investigated." He also called my wife at her work place earlier in the day. He told her she had failed to take care of her business and that she would "end up behind the bars."  She continued to ask for a Supervisor and was told by Anthony that he was the Supervisor. She asked for his Supervisor because, while he claimed to be American and had an American name, his accent was so thick she could not understand a word he was saying. He then started talking really quickly and shouting. She just kept shouting back for him to put someone who could speak English on the line and he hung up.  He also told her his company had sent 18 emails that had gone ignored. ROFL! Of course, those types of emails always get deleted!  Not a letter or correspondence one.  Just the emails... which, upon sifting through my past email logs were not found.  My wife was very upset and I told her it was a scam and I'd be able to find something on the internet to prove it. Of course, I have found that proof here. You'll also note, they never put a phone number on their web sites.  I'll have to see if they keep calling before I try to take any legal action, which I doubt would do any good since they are foreigners. I suppose I'll play along and make them mad everytime they call... who know's it might be fun!

They are the scammer..
don't pay them they will take money..
