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.

File fraud with your bank or CC holder for a start. And file complaints with the FTC,CFB and your states Attorney general.  The bank or CC can issue you a new account and close the old one out so they can't take any more money!  As far as getting your money back, you probably will not see it!

are u still fighting this? I was recently scared or threaten with charges

This damn lady Katrina wilkinson keeps calling me saying I owe a payday loan from 2010. She said I have to pay them if not my county will be notified so I can be put in jail for check fraud.. is this legal? How is she threatening me?

Please contact me as well.
469-251-2927

I also have paid them over 3k after founding out that they were scammers and lying about who they are. Ive tried to find ways to get my money back but no luck. Its frustrating. And they said they will send out a receipt but never did. So now i don't have a paper trail of the transaction. Is there any way to get the money back? Once i found out it was fake...i had put a stop on the payment but for some reason they still release my money. They threatened me with felony warrants and jail time. How do i get the money back?

We have paid these people a year ago for a payday loan. Today I get a call from another law firm saying that they will take action if we do not pay. We already did!!! What is the deal with these people!

They would use names that they are a law group issueing felony warrants. If they took the money is there any way to get it back? Its illegal for them to misrepresent

I was scammed by them as well and I would like to know what I can do in helping them be prosecuted.

I will be MORE than happy to help you prosecute these people just tell me what i have to do.

Hmmmm? let's see

BBB lists them with an "F" rating! (Mostly for billing/collections issues).
--- Advance Payday loan being mentioned : Failure to respond to 10 complaints filed against business

I smell shill all over you post! Get a clue, find a real job ? for you shilling will never pay off!!!

Your wife was right when she said it didn't sound right.  Your story doesn't even approach believability.  You aren't even a good liar.  Thanks for proving that this number is associated with a scam.

Sure and I found the pot o'gold at the end of the rainbow too! It even came complete with a silly wee leprechaun playin a wee violin!  The fairy's where dancin in the air too! Its twoo, its twoo..

Uh huh. Jail time or fine you say ?

It seems to me that someone accused of writing fraudulent checks from an account at a bank they never used would *certainly* contest the charges against them, so can you please explain to me why you did not take this to court?

Nice try, thanks for playing, but the only prize you get is a shiny nametag that reads "Hello, I am a Shill".

Yet another shill.  Reported.  You can't be arrested for a debt.  You can't be arrested for writing "bad" checks out of a bank you never even banked with.  Nice try, no cigar.

These people called my phone several times saying that I had wrote bad checks out of a bank I've never banked from. They said I needed to turn myself in or I was going to jail. I called the police and talked to him to see what was going on but he couldn't find anything. Well I be dam I get to work the next day and the police was there and they took me downtown. Well I was either going to spend time in jail for something i didn't do or pay some money for something I didn't do. So I went on and paid them some money. I shouldve listened to my wife when she said it didnt sound right.
