Calling from 888-792-3330
This is a scam outfit or individual.  Trying to act like a legal agent.  Trying to "muscle" money out of people.

I have recieved one call, from Fed Chk Processing Mr.Thomas 888-792-3330 Ext 304, today. In December I had a gentleman call me from same place saying that I owed on a payday loan, due to it bouncing, or coming back closed account I am in big trouble and due to it me so called applying for the loan on my work computer they could file charges against my company and have me lose my job. I spoke to a payday loan company I had taken out years earlier, they said DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION, PAYDAY LOANS WILL CALL YOU DIRECTLY, DO NOT GIVE TO AN OUTSIDE COMPANY!!!! I am as sick of this BS as all of you. O, and they did give a paper that had how much I owed when asked, but did not show the company or company's I supposily owed. Just was a bill from them!!!!!!!!! Calling my work is wrong!!!!

Called my aging folks and harraseed my mother...she thought I was going to jail for fraud...WTF!!!

Telephone Collection Scam Related to Delinquent Payday Loans

12/01/2010?The IC3 receives a high volume of complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. In these scams, a caller claims that 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.

One of the most insidious aspects of this scam is that the callers have accurate information about the victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. The method by which the fraudsters obtained the personal information is unclear, but victims often relay that they had completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls began.

The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim?s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide to the victims any details of the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers threaten victims with legal actions, arrests, and in some cases physical violence if they refuse to pay. In many cases, the callers even resort to harassment of the victim?s relatives, friends, and employers.

Some fraudsters instruct victims to fax a statement agreeing to pay a certain dollar amount, on a specific date, via prepaid visa card. The statement further declares that the victim would never dispute the debt.

These telephone calls are an attempt to obtain payment by instilling fear in the victims. Do not follow the instructions of the caller.

If you receive telephone calls such as these, you should:

§                                         Contact your banking institutions;

§                                         Contact the three major credit bureaus and request an alert be put on your file;

§                                         Contact your local law enforcement agencies if you feel you are in immediate danger;

§                                         File a complaint at www.IC3.gov.

My husband received a very stupid disturbing message from a Mark Hamilton (seriously) that bothered him about his wife being investigated for fraud and some other stuff. First of all, the Federal Agency won't waste their time calling me if you are under investigation. They will send you a  letter and will be advised to respond to it. No one ends up in jail for debt. And please do not be alarmed or scared because the company they represent is not listed with the Better Business Bureau nor they represent the Federal Agency. Ignore their calls or better yet change your number. It's about time these scum bags be exposed. They are con artist, posting us federal agents...out to take you to the cleaners.Beware!!!!!

I have also had phone calls from an investigator named Mr Shaw saying the same thing. He said if I didn't take care of this matter then they would be forced to file this in court. If this is a fact then they need to send some paperwork for me to give to my attorney. They need to be stopped.

A "Miss Segal" called my place of employment and asked to speak to the I.T department. My co-worker whom answered the phone explained our company did not have an "I.T" department. "Miss Segal" then asked to speak to me, I was not in the office at the time, but my co-worker took down a message from her, stating that she was a fraud investigator, and that they had linked me through my company computers IP address. She left a 888-792-3330 ext 319 phone number. I have been called by these scam artist before due to Payday loans, I am glad I checked out this number before calling back.

OOPS! Monday January 2nd, 2012

A caller identifying herelf as Sherry Lynn left a threatening message on my home phone stating I had 24 hrs to contact this number 888 792-3330 or San Bernadino County would  be contacted ....she sounded phony ?very unprofessional . This message was left yesterday Monday January 3rd , 2012

Received a call from a Mr. Peter Richardson on 1-3-12 stating that he works for this company. I immediately asked him to send me some paper work on the account, but he responded by saying that he will send it once I make the proper arrangements. I told Mr. Richardson that I need to see it in writing first, and he said that he was sending it over now but I never received anything. I spoke with someone at the Federal Trade Commission and they told me that this company has broken into the database system and stolen information. I Don't Think So!!!

I recieved a threaten call today from a investigator Shaw and he  call me telling me that I was looking at fraud charges and they were going to turn it in to my home town sheriff. this man even call my ex-boy friend who I had not talk with in years in fact it been about 10 years since I had any connection with him.They told him that I had some bad checks out and need to get in contact with me.They called several other people telling them the same thing and I don't know how thye got these people information. They were very rude and very unprofessional trying to threaten me what would happen and wanted to know did I have a debt card or checking account or did I no anybody I could use pay the account which I do not owe. These people need to be stop they should not called other people giving out information about you or calling your job or making threats to another person.

Got a harrassing very verbal call from Investigator Mark Hamilton saying i owed 1107.13 in late fees for a loan with Cashnet in 2010.  when i ask him to fax me info he got very abusive and said if i did not pay right now he would be filing and i would be arrensted for fraud and it would mean jain time. when i again ask him to fax me over paperwork he yelled you better have a good attorney and slammed the phone down doesn't sound very professional to me. thats when i looked this 888-792-3330 #.

Payday crap!!
Calls at work!

Thank you !!

I had a guy named bill thorbough call me today about a pat due loan with cash net.  He was threatening to have a warrant out for my arrest too!   Said I owed 900 dollars and I almost fell for it.  I called Cagney and I don't owe them but like 400 bucks!!  He got very rude with me.  So is this a scam then for sure???

Have been recieving very rude phone calls from these people also. Called my ex-husband left him a message I had a fraud case being investigated against me. Illegal to leave messages like that. Don't even know how they got is number. Threatening to file charges for bad check/fraud for a paydy loan thru Cashnet. Going to see my lawyer tomorrow as he says this is a felony offense. Taking my recorded messages. They are also saying they have my dl. and are going to turn in to dmv to go against my licence. These people need to be stopped.

Exactly what happened to me...investigator Dan Adams at this number called re "bad check" that I wrote.  in reality was a payday loan that someone obtained with my information as I was a victim of ID theft...they try to sound like a federal agency and their facade quickly deteriorates when you challenge them.  they are in violation of many federal collection laws.  also, non payment of a payday loan is not considered fraud as it is known that there are no funds in your account at the time that the transaction occurs.  it is a civil action at best and can't be taken by these clowns as they aren't the wronged party, only a collection agency that has purchased bad debt.

This company called my ex husband and left a voice mail saying I was wanted for check fraud and I listed him as a son.  They called his cell phone, which I don't even know the number or even where he lives now.  I happened to be at my parents visiting and talked to him and he was all smug about it.  So I got online and researched this number....I WAS worried but now I doubt it is even legit.

I JUST RECIEVED A PHONE CALL FROM A DETECTIVE MARSHALL WANTING TO TALK ABOUT A BAD CHECK I HUNG UP AND HE CALLED BACK ASKING FOR MY WORKS FAXS NUMBER, THEN HE FAXED A PIECE OF PAPER ASKING INFORMATION REGARDING PAYROLL STUFF.
LUCKY I DIDN'T TALK TO ANYONE I JUST FAXED BACK MY INFORMATION OF MY BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY!

Oh My goodness I received a phone call from somebody named Dan Adams as well! He said they were going to issue a warrant for my arrest! Did he have your SSN?

This is my question EXACTLY!!! We have been getting verbally harrassed very badly today by an individual claiming to be 'Dan Adams'. They have been threatening to have my husband arrested for some loan he knows nothing about.

We have recieved these calls also, in connection with a payday loan taken out when my friend had her identity stolen.  What I dont understand is if this company is doing illegal things, why don't the feds shut them down ?

"Robert Wolfe" at federal check processing. harrassed me on the phone about a cashnet payday loan. My computer was hacked months ago and my identity stolen, credit applications constantly showing up in my email, fake paper checks posting to my checking account and I dont even have checks or a debit card. etc etc. This guy was very rude. he wouldnt let me talk, tried explaining to him that all my accounts have been frozen and I can verify the fraud attempts. he said," You listen to me! You are a liar and a thief." Thats when I hung up. number was 888-792-3330.

I got a unkown call today and the man left me a message stating that me or my lawyer needs to call him back cause I owe a payday loan of 917.21. I paid back that original loan amount and I have never recieved anything from that payday loan co about owing them anything!!!  So today I get threatened by Peter Reynolds saying they are gonna supena me to appear in court, that I need to get a debit card today and call him back with it and they can stop the court process. Everytime I would ask a question he would talk over me like I was some idot. This is awful for them to do such a thing as to tell you are going to court over this crap.

Tell them to get a real job.

I have received multiple calls from an Investigator Hodge stating that I am being pursued for check fraud. She is saying that I took out a payday loan for 900.00 a few years back and that I never paid it back. I did take out an online payday loan 3 years ago, and I paid it back. SO her claim is false. My aunt received a phone call from this same person a few days ago. SHe told my aunt that I was wanted for forgery and that if I did not take care of this matter that files would be charged against me in the county I reside in. I already figured that this was a scam, but I started researching anyway, and have found that it is in fact a scam. Do not believe what these people tell you. Threaten them with a lawyer.

Called my sister again today...said they were sending over a warrant for my arrest this morning...but thought they said that a few days ago? He proceeded to give my sister information on the case they had against me...asked her if I am known for doing this sort of thing, check fraud. Then he asked her where I was and when was the last time she saw me. She asked what county this warrant was being issued and through what court, he told her a county I don't live in and then put her on hold to see if the warrant was already issued. He got back on the line and said it wasn't sent out yet, and told her to have me call by end of business day to avoid a warrant being issued. Like I mentioned before, he told her this a few days ago?????????
