Someone called me Feb. 8, 2013, left the number 657-549-2306 claiming they were trying to "serve papers" and had a "claim number." Called the number back and a guy named Richard Delgado claimed I wrote a couple of bad checks to Ace Cash Express payday loans. He also said that I could do time, etc. He said I owe 2,789.18 and that I needed to pay. I explained that I am unemployed and he asked me did I file my income taxes yet. I thought that was unusual for a "debt collector" to ask this question, so that sent a red flag. But I did make the mistake of handing out personal info because he sounding so convincing. So I decided to do a "payment plan." He emailed me these "documents" that look like it was done on Microsoft Word, but it didn't look official. I called him back saying that it was impossible for me to owe, because someone tried pulling this same scam last year around this time using Ace as the company I owe. I asked him when did take this suppposed "loan." He says around Oct-Dec 2008-- He couldn't give me an exact date which sent another red flag. Later that day, I googled Ace Cash Express and navigated their website. It is an actual payday loan place to either apply for a loan online or go to the actual store in the US. I clicked on the prompt that says states and found that there is not a store in Michigan at all. I called customer service for them to check their records to see if I applied for a loan. The representative told me they have not ever heard of me and there is no record of me applying for a loan in their database. I then explained to her I recieved a call from a company that claim I owe them money. She told me do not give them any money and to ignore their calls because it is a scam. I guess since it's income tax time, please be aware--- do not give them any of your information.

I received a call on Feb 8, 2013 from a Ricard Delgado claiming a I owe a nonexist payday loan. Claims I wrote two bad checks at an Ace Cash Express; also told me about doing jail time, etc. The amount he claimed I owe is 2,789.18. Someone called me last year around this time (different "debt collectors") saying I owed Ace Cash Express 799.00. To make a longer story short, since I am unemployed he asked me did I file my income taxes yet-- I thought that was ususual for a "debt collector" to ask for that info so that sent a red flag. I admit that I went wrong giving him personal info because I was nervous and wasn't thinking. He sounded convincing and I decided to do payment arrangements. He emailed me documents with the "payment info." I looked at the documents and it looked like something that was done on Microsoft Word. The documents were not official which sent another red flag. I happen to find my fake document from last year from the other "company" which listed Ace Cash Express. I called back and spoke to Richard again and told him that it was not possible that I owed this debt, because someone tried that last year. He replied that they are "representing Ace and that the burden of proof was on me to prove to the D.A."  about this issue. I finally asked him when did I take out this supposed loan-- he told me "around Oct-Dec 2008" this sent another red flag because he could not give me an exact date. I did google Ace Cash Express and it is an actual payday loan company in which people can apply online and they had stores in the US. I clicked on the states prompt and found that there is not an Ace Cash Express in Michigan at all. I called customer service to see if I did have any outstanding debt. Apparently the representative looked me up and she had never heard of me. I was NOT in their system at all! I explained to her on the phone call I recieved a call claiming I owed them. She told me that it is a scam they are running and to avoid answering the phone. So do not believe these scammers-- it is income tax time and they are looking for a reason to get money.

I called this number after they spoke with my place of employment and gave them my "case number" -- never once asked to speak with me.  Luckily, I work in an office where it's small and I could hear what was being said.  I was given a note to call a "Jonathan" back.  A Richard answered and he refused to give me any information on who he is associated with and where he is located.  I told him I ask only because they violated privacy laws by giving out any sensitive information to an unaffiliated individual with me.  This Richard started stammering and I asked for someone in charge of legal and he indicated that he was.  I then repeated that there has been what would be considered a violation of privacy and told him I refuse to give him any info. Also informed "Richard" of the scam that is assoicated with this number at 720-432-8817 and to google it.  He asked me if I believed everything on google.  I told him if there's more thana few instatnces, they're trying to pull something and hung up on me.  Don't let them fool you folks.

Since this is income tax refund time, these people are running a scam claiming I owe a nonexistent payday loan which I do not. Be aware-- do not give any personal info.
