My name is Helen Schroeder, I have been called 5 times today from This Jason O'conner stating that the loan I received on line was to come and arrest me.  I had already made a payment on the 13th of January to this loan company.  I stated that I would have the number traced and police involved that is when Jason called.  The amount went from 498.00, to 1002.00, then down to 627.00.  The loan was only for 250.00!

I got a call from this number last week and they told me I owe money. BEWARE these people are bogus and I've already filled a police report of identity theft!

I have gotten three calls from these people at my work and at home.  When I called back and spoke to "Jonathan Cash" I told that all of the messages sound the same except the person's name is dubbed in.  They have an Indian accent.  When I asked him what this information was that was being brought against me he told me that he couldn't tell me and that I need to give him my attorney's name.  I told him that I refuse to give him any information about me until he can prove what he is claiming -  he told me I was uncooperative and i told him he was a harrassing a** and to stop calling me.  I have no attorney on record.  This is a scam.  I have changed my home # to an unlisted phone that is now blocked and am having my telecommunications groups blocking this number at work..  I do not know how they have gotten my phone information, but it is pissing me off.

The exact same thing happen to me today from Johnathan Cash @760-429-2879 from Us Attorny @law. I spoke to someone a few days ago from 360--526-6040 exact same conversation and I'm about a 120% sure it was the same person.  After asking them several questions regarding the scam they hung up.  When I called back the first time a lady answered hello like she was at home.  After I explained to her she hung up and from that point the phone just rang.   I want to know if any of you remenber receiving a call from a Lady who talk really fast like she was rushing you to verify information so she can move to next call with a Indian accent who advised you were approved for a loan funds will be delivered in your account the next day but you never received the funds.  I had a call like that and I'm now believing they are the people behind this.  At the end when I tried to ask her some questions she hung up so I never new what company she was calling from but I never received the money.  This has to be the same company!

Shows up +000 in the cell phone and unknown on the work phone.  Left message on the work phone as follows:  This message is intended for Matthew ****.   Mr. **** the very second you receive this message I need you or your retained attorney of record to gently call situation at hand extremely time sensitive.  This Thomas miller calling from the state investigator bureau and the hard line to my direct division is 1-888-717-7658  Now Matthew if you do not return the call or if I do not hear from your attorney either the only I can do for you wish you good luck have the situation falls on you   Don’t try to disregard this message please contact me as soon as possible until then good bye.

Been reading all over the net that this is bogus.  Some places indicate they bought the info off of old payday loans.  Guy called back and I answered and he would never give me a straight answer where he was from except that his name is Thomas Miller.  I said oh Thomas Miller the Attorney General of Iowa?  He said yeah.  I told him he was a liar and hung up.  Seriously thinking of applying for a differen SSN due to fraud.

YUP same thing happened today but they had my social and my bank account number, references... I called the police and they seem very interested in what i told them and I am personally going to see what i can do.... not my social mann MY SOCIAL!

I just read Brandy's post and that is exactly what happened to me....verbatim, except they wanted my attorney's name.  When I told them I don't have a "retained" attorney he started spewing crap at me.  I told him that first off if I was being "sued" I would get something in the mail and most likely it would be certified.  He also started raising his voice to me.  I have had a David, a Keith, a Jason call me and they all have the exact same voice.  I told him to take a look at his hand - either one is fine, and to bend his index finger and ring and pinky - which finger still remained up.  I told him I was at work, but the message on his hand was what I way saying.  He didn't like it too mujch.  It is a scam and yes I had also applied for a small payday loan on-line for $400.00 which I paid off.  Since the initial phone call on march 1st I have had my home # changed to an unpublished # and have also had my company block this phone # from being received.  I have also opened a new checking account.  If someone gets sued they surely don't do it this extremely unethical way.  These inviduals can go to hell.

I am so glad to have read these posts. I feel much better knowing FOR SURE that this is a SCAM. I am in the middle of receiving these calls right now, and I knew it was false information, yet "Chris Brown" (yeah, right) "my" account handler, had me backed into a corner raising his voice and spewing out MY information at me. Never used InstaCash services, and if there is such a company, never will. This is so wrong.....wish i could get more information on this company and report them.

i was so happy to see your conversation.  i had almost word for word the same conversation with somebody named nick.  He told me the same thing as he was telling you.  When i tried to call the number back it just rang and rang and rang.

I had two missed calls yesterday on my work phone from 562-222-4311.  I didn't recognize the number and no message was left on my work phone so I didn't think anything about it until I checked my cell phone and saw that I had a missed call from the same number but this time they left a VM.  I listened to the message and I quote, "This message is for Brandy. Brandy the very second you receive this message, I need you or your retained attorney of record to return the call cause your time is extremely time sensitive.  My name is Brandon Jackson and the hard line to my division is 562-222-4311.  I repeat 562-222-4311.  Dont disregard this message, return the call.  Now Brandy, if you don't return the call or I don't hear from your attorney either, the only thing I can do is wish you good luck as the situation unfolds on you.  Good bye!"

I was distraught and had no idea what this was about.  Then low and behold on my way home around 5 p.m. my cell phone rang and I saw it was the same number.  I answered and a guy with an Indian accent asked if this was Brandy and I said yes. As soon as I said yes, he said his name was Paul I believe and he was calling to go over my case with me.  I immediately stopped him and asked what case?  He proceeded to tell me that he was calling on behalf of his client Insta Cash and advised that he was going to go over my affadavit.  I had no idea what he was talking about but I was concerned at first because I did apply and receive a small loan online, but I was paying on it and was receiving email confirmations with the debit amount they take directly out of my account.  I kept asking what case was he referring to and finally he said, "you haven't been briefed on your case?" I said no obviously not or I wouldn't be confused as to what the hell you are saying.  He said, "fine hold the line and I will transfer you to my supervisor to go over your case and affadavit."  I said go ahead I think that is a good idea at this point because you are not giving me any information.  Instead of a legit business that would actually transfer to another extension, it was like he covered the phone I could hear whishpering.  Then the same accent came back on and said, "my name is Keith and I am a supervisor."  However, it was the same person just using a different name.  He basically began saying the same thing by stating they were calling about my case and charges that were being brought against me.  I stopped him right there and said, "once again what case are you referring to and what charges?"  He acted shocked and mad and said are you telling me you haven't been briefed on your case and you don't know why we are calling.  I said exactly and that was supposedly why the person I was just speaking to transferred me to you so this could be explained to me.  He said, "well you should know that you applied online with my client for a loan and that was approved.  My client held up their end of the bargain by depositing your loan into the account you requested but you didn't hold up your end to repay the loan."  I was extremely upset and advised him that I never received any money through a direct deposit in my account, nor by check, nor by any other means from Insta Cash and I asked him to give me a contact name and number of "HIS CLIENT" so that I can speak with them directly.  He responded with, "you did receive the money but never sent in any payments as you were supposed to and when my client attempted to debit your account for a payment, the account number you gave is not a valid account.  Therefore, because you never sent in any payments on the loan you received and the bank account information you provided is not a valid account, my client decided to write off the loan you were given but is now pursuing THEFT AND FRAUD CHARGES ALONG WITH ANY COURT COSTS AND ATTORNEY FEES WHICH IS ESTIMATED TO BE CLOSE TO $6,000.00 AND WE CAN TAKE THIS TO COURT AND GET THIS MONEY OR YOU CAN SETTLE OUT OF COURT BY PAYING IT NOW."  I was furious at this point and said for one if I was approved for a small cash advance loan which is usually under $500.00 there is no way that I would be required to pay back anywhere close to $6,000.00.  Secondly, if Insta Cash did approve a cash advance loan for me and deposited in my bank account electronically as you say, then obviously it would be a valid account and NOT FRAUD if the deposit transaction was successful.  Thirdly, this is the first time I have ever heard anything about this so called loan, first time I have heard of any attempts on collection of repayment, NOR have I ever received any type of documentation and or mail on anything to do with this.  Just so happened right after saying all of that, my phone lost signal and the call dropped.  The rep I had supposedly spoke to initially before I was transferred to Brandon the supervisor, called right back and asked if he was speaking with Brandy.  I said yes this is Brandy and my phone lost signal and I asked if I was speaking with Brandon again.  He said no this is Keith so I said transfer me back to Brandon because our conversation was cut off.  He advised me to hold the line again and he would see if Brandon wanted to speak with me again because he was very angry at me.  I kind of laughed and said, "well that makes two of us because I am pretty pissed and I don't care if he is or not so put him back on the phone."  Brandon picked up the phone and said am I speaking with Brandy?  I said yes and bottom line is I didn't borrow nor receive any money from Insta cash.  That is when he advised that Insta Cash has over 400 affiliates but I in fact did receive money from them.  We argued for a while longer and I finally said, I am not arguing with you any more.  You either send me some kind of official documentation with a copy of the so called Affadavit with a contact name and number of your so called client or don't call me again.  I could tell this made him very mad and frustrated so he then said, "I am not giving you my clients name or number because that would be a conflict of interest now wouldn't it?"  I replied well I guess we have nothing left to talk about and before I hung up he attempted one last time by saying, "well this is your last opportunity to attempt to resolve this or we are taking you to court and I assure you we have evidence to prove that you did receive and accept a loan from my client as well as some of your actual email correspondence because we have been monitoring your email."  I said listen closely cause this is the last thing I am going to say, "this is BS and makes no sense that one minute you say your client has wrote off this loan and decided to press fraud and theft charges and now you are asking me if I want to resolve this by paying a large settlement.  So take me to court if that is what you want cause I have a years worth of bank statements that would show any deposit made to my account, plus the only email I use is my work email account which is all backed up on a server that I can have pulled to prove that I NEVER applied for a loan from Insta Cash nor did I ever supply anyone with bogus bank routing / account numbers.  Therefore, I pretty damn sure that you and or your client will NEVER get a penny from me for a SO CALLED LOAN THAT WAS NEVER APPLIED FOR NOR RECEIVED AND HENCE THERE CANNOT BE ANY FRAUD COMMITTED YOU JERK.  At that point he was extremely mad and said right before he hung up, "be prepared to bail out!"

Basically I got the message that these other callers got. I went to my attorney and had him talk to them . They hung up on him

I got a call from the same number on 3/2/2010  562-222-4311, told me that I had taken out a cash loan, which was a lie and he was from a fraud unit.  I asked him his name he told me Ashley Gilbert.  When I did I suppose to have  taken out the  cash loan.  he could not tell me.

I called the number back and it rang busy so I called it back a  couple of hours later and it went to a voice mail.  I called information and they did not have any type of listing or business for that number.

The caller had a strong accient as if they werer mexicans or puerto ricans. IT'S A SCAME SO BEWARE. they have information on you just enough to get your attention.

I got the same call but what scares me is all the information they knew about me. Does anyone know how we can stop these people!!!

i got a call from this person today also.  he states he is calling from customer affairs of instacash.  last week they were calling from another number, threatening me at work and on my cell phone.  they tell me they have to read me an affidavit and then tell me i'm being charged with things for not paying instacash back.  i have never borrowed from instacash.

I received a call from 542-222-4311 on 2/26 from Jason O Conners, stating I had defaulted on  a loan with InstaCash and I was going to be arrested for several charges including wire fraud and money laundering etc.  That I called them back in time to make arrangements for my balance.  I was absolutely terrified and since I had taken out payday loan before I assumed this was legit.  Well to make a long story short it wasnt.  I researched this and found that this has happened to many people over the last week.  I did buy a prepaid visa and give them the number but I never activated the card.  When i confronted them this morning tell them that I never borrowed money from them, I was going to call the FBI, FTC and a family friend was a Federal Court Judge, and I wasnt paying them.  He said have a nice day and hung up.  I am a good person and these as*hol*s prey on people is wrong.  This person jason o conners had a heavy indian accent.

They call from this number claiming that my husband has a loan with instacash that he refused to payback.  this is not true.  This is a scam problem is they have way to much info.  They claim that my husband is being investigated for wire fraud among other things.  When I told them they were a scam they hung up on me.  They have a thick Indian accent.  The message the guy said his name was Shawn Rice.  When I called them back he claimed his name was Paul and when i call their bluff they want to backtrack and claim they will investigate it

Shows up +000 in the cell phone and unknown on the work phone.  Left message on the work phone as follows:  This message is intended for Matthew ****.   Mr. **** the very second you receive this message I need you or your retained attorney of record to gently call situation at hand extremely time sensitive.  This Thomas miller calling from the state investigator bureau and the hard line to my direct division is 1-888-717-7658  Now Matthew if you do not return the call or if I do not hear from your attorney either the only I can do for you wish you good luck have the situation falls on you   Don?t try to disregard this message please contact me as soon as possible until then good bye.

I just got a call from this 562-222-4311 number and it went much like marie acevedo's account went. Talked to my brother a lawyer and he is going to look into it. These two women that called me were so heavily accented that I had to have them repeat everything at least twice. The one woman was a legal "advisor" Her name was Uphrelia Dorsey and read an "affidavit" about them bringing me up on fraud, money laundering wire fraud. Was scary but pissed me off at the same time. Haven't called them back I may and see how many times I can cuss at them. Then tell them that am going to have them shut down. Hopefully put in jail. We need to get these people shut down.

This makes me truly angry that there are scam artist out there trying to intimidate individuals and trying to get you to pay some enormous amount under false pretense.

Got two messages today! I have called the nc attorney generals office. They are loving this! To cease calls at work I recorded the numbers and provided them to local law enforcement.

I also received a phone call from this number. This company left me a message and I gave them a call back a few days later.The person I spoke with informed me that I had taken out a payday loan and I had failed to pay it back. He said the company I took the payday loan out with had decided that instead of collecting the money they would be pressing chriminle charger against me. I also initially assumed that it was legit since I had too previously taken out a payday loan and they had the last four digits of my social security number (SCARY!). However after the person I spoke with informed me that the loan had been taken out last year (before I turned 17) and to a bank account that had been closed for some time I become suspicious and asked to speak with the manager/supervisor. The supervisor intraduced himself as " Johnathan Davenport". The conversation with him was brief the minute I expressed doubt and he HUNG UP ON ME! The minute he hung up it hit me. This had to be a scam. The supervisors name did not fit his accent, the supervisor came to the phone very quickly and that is just not common, the rude manor the man spoke to me in and then he hung up. NOT LEGIT! So googled the number and not to my surprise there where several accounts of this number harrasing peoples and giving them a similar story as what he gave me. When I called back and asked for the supervisor he told me a not to use my head to much because he is sure I have no brains! and then hung up I WAS FURIOUS! I called the number back several times and eventually they blocked my number. I called back from a friends cell phone and got the man on the line again and told him that I was the lawyer of the woman he just spoke to. Sure enough he blocked that number too. I was so mad that I was not going to stop there. I did some more research on the number and found out that the service provider is a company that sells numbers to outside companies, so they could not give me any information. After telling them my account they told me to call my local police department. My local police department assured me that it was most likely a scam and not to believe anything until I get legal documentation through the mail.However, they told me there was nothing they could legally do. They told me to call me local DA's office. At first I figured that was going to be to much trouble however I am still angry and I feel very disrespected. I plan on doing everything that I can to make sure that these people are cought and punished for what the are doing. Scamming innocent, honest and hard working people is disgusting and they will get what is coming to them.
