I received the same email from pamela williams...about us cash advance,,,and since I have not taken out a payday loan I knew it was a scam,,,,its exactly the same email as stop...word for word,,,they cant even type in proper english...ask for the document they say you signed,,,

I got the exact same message by the same person, Julia Robinson, however, the phone number is completely different, 210-346-9692, but with the same ext 3002. I hope these a***oles get caught and quit trying to scam on people.

I got the same message and when i asked them to verify their company the lady hung up on me and stated she was going to prosectute me lol i told he i wasnt dumb and wouldnt fall for their crap... the easiest way not to be scammed is to not be dumb... wish these people would get caught

Just received that exact same email except the persons name was Julia Robinson and her # is 305-999-7327. I wrote her and told her that she is a scammer and not even from this country. I really made her mad. Oh well I am so tired of these people trying to scam everyone out of their money.

If any of your personal information appears on the email, ex:
Social Security Number
Address
Full name
Phone number

Contact your local police and explain, this could lead to identity theft, it happened to me.

I was contact by the FBI and im under a 90 day fraud alert.
I had to make an alert with the Credit Bureau, get a copy of my credit report, contact the IRS let them know and make a report with the local police since they have my address.
I now have to change my phone number and email.

These scams can get pretty serious if they have all your information, better being safe than sorry.

As we had put your SSN # into our National Checking Database System we found you to be a genuine person as you were never been arrested for any kind of Fraud Activity in your past so for that reason The Courthouse has decided to give you a chance to take care of this issue outside the Courthouse without having black spot on your credit history. Now if you want to take care of this issue than you have to pay an out of Court Restitution Amount which includes the late payment charges, the penalty charges, the highest interest rate of the loan amount and the actual loan amount = Restitution Amount : $1500 but if you want to settle this matter today itself than you can get some percent deduction on the Restitution Amount and you can take care of this issue by paying Settlement Amount : $950 today.

Which one you would like to go for Restitution Amount or Settlement Amount??

You have to send me a promissory note to stop your case file temporarily out of courthouse. So get back to me.

If you want to pay settlement amount which has to paid in full today itself to close this case and if you cannot pay the Settlement Amount then you can get 5 payments of $500 on the Restitution Amount starting from today and every other week. You have to freeze the allegations on your name, because we cannot hold your case. After the payment dates are decided, you cannot miss any payments and if you will not make your first payment on your case file then you will get Restitution Amount including more late payment charges.

Now the Restitution Amount is $1500 and today's settlement amount is $950. If you cannot pay the Settlement today then you can get payment arrangement on the Restitution Amount which is $500 from today till it is paid off every other week. Today is Apr 17th as you told we have tried to put a hold on your case file, how much you can pay today? We are providing you another payment option which will be cheaper then Western Union. Our Payment Department will be emailing you a receipt and you have to take a print of the receipt and take to  7 Eleven Store or Ace Cash Express Store and give cash to the cashier and let them know the amount and you will be charged $3.99 only.You just have to update us to send you a receipt regarding your payment on the payment date. When done you will get the receipt of the payment as a proof. Then you need to fax us your payment receipt to 206-337-3795. Please put attention Carole Williams. Also write down your name or your case file number. Also you can send me email if you have any questions or queries. Please reply so our Payment Department can send you the payment receipt to make payment today.

      OR

If you want time extension on Settlement Amount until Apr 20th 2013, then you have to pay $170 as time extension charge, so in total you have to pay $1120.

Here is information from the FBI Website (www.FBI.gov) and click on the internet scams tab:

New Variation on Telephone Collection Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

02/21/12?The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) continues to receive complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. As previously reported in December 2010, the typical payday loan scam involves a caller who claims the victim is delinquent on a payday loan and must make payment to avoid legal consequences.

Callers pose as representatives of the FBI, ?Federal Legislative Department,? various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies and claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, or other Internet check-cashing services. The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim?s home, cell phone, and place of employment in attempts to obtain payment. The callers refuse to provide information regarding the alleged payday loan or any documentation and become verbally abusive when questioned.

The IC3 has observed variations of this scam in which the caller tells the victim that there are outstanding warrants for the victim?s arrest. The caller claims that the basis of the warrants is non-payment of the underlying loan and/or hacking. If it?s the latter, the caller tells the victim that he or she is wanted for hacking into a business? computer system to steal customer information. The caller will then demand payment via debit/credit card; in other cases, the caller further instructs victims to obtain a prepaid card to cover the payment.

The high-pressure collection tactics used by the fraudsters have also evolved. In one recent complaint, a person posed as a process server and appeared at the victim?s job. In another instance, a phony process server came to a victim?s home. In both cases, after claiming to be serving a court summons, the alleged process server said the victim could avoid going to court if he or she provided a debit card number for repayment of the loan.

If you are contacted by someone who is trying to collect a debt that you do not owe, you should:

Contact your local law enforcement agencies if you feel you are in immediate danger;
Contact your bank(s) and credit card companies;
Contact the three major credit bureaus and request an alert be put on your file;
If you have received a legitimate loan and want to verify that you do not have any outstanding obligation, contact the loan company directly;
File a complaint at www.IC3.gov.

Any one who has been victimized or contacted by these people, please report it to www.IC3.gov .

Yes, it is a total scam.  They emailed me about two years ago (Mr. Williams) and claimed I owed them money.  They stole database information with personal information from a lending firm or something like that.  I took this to our local police who recommended turning it over to the FBI.  It traced back to some "communication" company in Texas.  I called the local police in that town and they said they would look into it but I never heard back.  Now I recieved the following message today 2/2/2013:

Let me introduce myself. I am Senior Affidavit Processor Officer Christy Adams from State Investigation Department. As we were trying to reach you since a couple of days regarding a very serious matter about a lawsuit filed on your name stating that you are doing some fraud and criminal activities.

For the records you...

I did a reverse phone number search and it is another "communication" company this time in San Jose, CA but it is the exact same story.  This time I am going to try to shut them down using the internet since the feds can't  or won't do it.  If you received an email like the above, it is a total scam.  Nothing happened to me when I ignored them.  They try to scare people into believing that they actually owe money. You should know if you owe some company that much money, right?

I just received the same email from the same name...Carole Williams.  Somehow these people even have my social security number?  Not sure what I can do about this but I thought about reporting it to the Attorney General.  
Scary stuff....definitely not calling them back!

These people have my social security included in the email they sent me!!!  CRAP!!!

I just received almost the same email - from Kathy Williams and Pamela Williams.   I asked for the date that this money was supposedly borrowed.    

The response I received was that it is a secret and I will find that out at the courthouse ?    What kind of answer is that.

I sent another email back telling them that if they cannot answer that information to stop harassing me by email.  If they do not I will be contacting my local police department, the Attorney Generals office and the FBI.   It will probably not stop but I was unsure of what else to do.

Same thing for me too. Pamela Williams as well. Phone calls and emails...just so you know everyone, there are federal laws that debt collectors and collection agencies must abide by. First off, if you request proof of debt in writing and if they refuse, this is a sure sign they are not legitimate...secondly, they cannot call or write you saying anything in regards to "pay or go to jail" verbiage...they are legally not allowed to threaten you in any manner...if this happens, even if it is a legitimate debt, they cannot collect and you become no longer required to pay...one other thing I noticed from Pamela, was her email was a gmail account. No legitimate business uses @gmail accounts (anyone could say they are part of a company if they did). That is why all work and business emails, especially law or collection firms, would NEVER use a gmail account...seems fishy to me...finally, I am a past victim to things like this and got smart since then, I am now a part of a credit monitoring system and any flags by the US Government would definitely appear on my daily reports/updates. I highly suggest you all join one...creditkarma.com is a free website for this and I use it all the time...hope this helps everyone, don't fall victim to this scam...

Lastly, you could always contact the original debtor regarding the loan if you did have one with them, payday loan company are notorious for selling information...
