The samething happened to me on February 27, 2012, I recieved a call on my job around 3pm eastern standard time from this guy, I can't remember his name, but he said that he was from this firm that is representing Check and Go Payday loans. He said that I owed $1,400 in late fees and attorny fees. He said that he was calling to settle this debt, but he can work out the amount that I owe. I said ok, he said well let me talk with my superior. He said that they would wave all of the late fees etc., all I had to pay was $870.47, but I had to pay it before 4:30 pm and if not, they were going to come out and arrest me. I didn't have that type of money at the time, they threatened to come out and arrest me if it wasn't paid by that time. They gave me the money gram information, a co-worker of mine loaned me the money Iand I sent it to them. I just recieved another phone call from the real collection firm and they informed me that I had been scamed, so I googled the name and this is what I found, others like me that had been scamed. I saved my receit and the real collection agency asked me to mail them a copy of my receit and they are going to remove the bill from their list.

They called my house yesterday from a Houston number 823-377-3049 a Mr. Anderson a real low life told my father of 82 that I was going to be arrested today if i did not pay him. He referred to his company as the "Worthless check and fraud division" I researched his number and it came up as Weinberg, Cockran and Irwin of Houston.
He refused to give any info out, had info on me which is interesting, I told him to take a hike and bring on whatever he feels he can. I do not run or back down for what is right, thankfully there are so many internet sites for these scammers look up the phone numbers 823-377-3049, 823-377-3051, 512-277-4086, 240-595-6895 you will see so much about these guys.
My question is where is law enforcement?
As with all things they may or may not get what they deserve for what they are doing but considering the type of people they are they will sooner or later be jailed!
Mr Martin Anderson, as I told you on the phone do have a nice day!

Scam....BIG TIME!!! Scammers. The need to be placed in jail for life!!! They called my family members and everything to find me.  The got personal information until I looked them up and found out that lots of people have received many calls from the same company. They wanted me to send them $400 wire transfer.  

PLEASE, PLEASE LET'S STOP THESE PEOPLE!!!!

An Adam Pleviak called and said he represented the State of Ohio Prosecutor's office and that they were getting ready to file three felony warrants on me if I didn't send them $735.75 within three hours. They claimed that I had written a bad check from Advance America in 2008 and they were collecting the debt. In fear I sent them $350.00 on Fri and another $140.00 on Monday. It wasn't until I looked up their "firm" WEINBERG, COCKRAN AND IRWIN that I found out they are scam artist. I've called Advance America, their Loss Prevention Dept, the Federal Trade Commission and the State Attorney General's office of Ohio. I've also filed a police report with my local police department and am quickly everyday finding out more and more about these scam artist.  DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR LIES AND SCARE TACTICS!!!!!! THEY ARE FAKE AND SCAM ARTISTS!!!!!!

Just called my work number and spoke to the receptionist. Claimed they were WITH the state of XXX check fraud division. Told the receptionist that I was under investigation and that I or my attorney should call them back. When she  tried to verify they were "with" the state of XXX he said they were "working with" the sated of XXX.  What a-holes.  I will call them but only to get the info to send them the certified letter that is required to stop any future calls.  They try to use these scare tactics on unsuspecting people to try to scare them into paying debts that are to old to collect or have been paid off.  They are what are known as bottom-feeders and that is putting it politely.
