Interesting - like the rest of you - I had gotten a call from this phone number about an hour ago at my job.  Yes a very minute amount of money was borrowed.  Yes and like the rest of you, it is being paid back automatically each payday to ease the burden.  Well when you get the call they tell you that you have committed money fraud, internet fraud and all things that would scare anyone.  I was taken back by this.  The company by the way was The Florida State Bureau of Criminal Investigation.  Well something was not quite right about the call.  I had heard a lot of people in the background talking and I can tell that none of them may have been born here.  After I got off of the phone, I called the State of Florida and was advised that there is no such Department.  I then called the Florida State Attorney General's Office.  Again, I was advised that there is no such Department.  So now it was my turn to have a little fun.  I harassed them so much that they called my place of employment and they had asked that I stop calling them.  I exposed them for the Fraud that they are, told them this over the phone and to have them call me and I ask that I never call back and vice versa - nice little victory for me.

I just called them back and told them I was speaking to a lawyer about filing for bankruptcy and he needed information on everything I was paying out so I needed some kind of way to show him proof of our payment arrangement. He freaked out telling me that the only thing he could send me would be something showing how much I paid after it was paid. Then he told me he didn't like what I was saying and that he couldn't send the lawyer anything because he had to be a federal lawyer because fraud is a federal case. So I asked him if I should get in touch with the FBI about it since it was federal and he got even angrier saying that he was just going to send this through the courts since I didn't want to pay him what I owe. I never said that though...all I wanted was proff and he couldn't give me any. So needless to say I'm not paying him anything else. And I don't know what I should do about the 350 I have sent them.

I have gotten calls from these people. They called my grandmother and told her if she didn't find a way for them to call me then the cops would come pick me up at my job or my home and told her the addresses of them path places to prove he was serious. Then when he got in touch with me he told me that unless I could pay over 1000 over a months time. I have made one payment and I have another coming up in a week. This guy really scared me and I have a family to protect and going to jail is very scary to me. I can't afford a lawyer I don't want to stop the payments and then end up in jail like he told me he would do...HELP!

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.

Some fraudsters have instructed victims to fax a statement agreeing to pay a certain amount, on a specific date, via a pre-paid Visa card. The statement further declares the victim will never dispute the debt.

If you receive these calls, do not follow the caller?s instructions. Rather, you should:

?Notify 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.
Tips to avoid becoming a victim of this scam:

?Never give your Social Security number?or personal information of any kind?over the telephone or online unless you initiate the contact.
?Be suspicious of any e-mail with urgent requests for personal financial information. The e-mail may include upsetting or exciting but false statements to get you to react immediately.
?Avoid filling out forms in e-mail messages that request personal information.
?Ensure that your browser is up-to-date and security patches have been applied.
?Check your bank, credit, and debit card statements regularly to make sure that there are no unauthorized transactions. If anything looks suspicious, contact your bank and all card issuers.
?When you contact companies, use numbers provided on the back of cards or statements

I received a call from the Dept of Law and justice in Jacksonville FL phone # 904-405-4332 stating that i owed a payday loan they had my social security # and my address stating that I owed $500 if $200 of it was not paid in 20 minutes they were calling the police department to arrest me, they were threatening me and not trying to work with me.  I did have a loan that I paid but it seems that they find victim who took out a loan before and get your info, your info is sold to them.  What caught me is the fact that they wouldnt take a debit or credit card they needed a Walmart or Walgreens money pac card.  This is untraceable whereby the credit or debit card would be.  I called my police department and was told they are a SCAM they would not arrest me because Jacksonville FL does not have any jurisdiction in another state unless you murdered someone or is wanted by the FBI which I am not I am a law abiding citizen.  I called them and mentioned that I called the police, they immediately hung up the phone.  I tried to call them back and the phone says that no one is available.  Please be careful of these people they have Indian accents with English names.

This number called me on my cell phone saying he was officer michael black and said that i owe money for a payday loan and he said that i could take care of this with a walmart debit card this is a scam dont't take any calls from this number this is a scam904-405-4332 i had these guys investigated''' Fake Fraud Not Real

I have been receiving harassing calls threatening to have me arrested and have me fired from my job....904-450-4332 John Harris or a Matthew Jenkins. I advised I have an attorney and they called back wanting the lawyers name and bar #...I was advised do not take these calls from the credit bureau and hang up if they call........This was in regards to a payday loan.......? why would you want someone arrested or fired if they want money from you....How can you pay them if your in jail or do not have a job?

I just recieved a call on my cell and at work. They are a BIG SCAM!!!!!!! I never recieved a cash advance and I do not owe any money. DO NOT PAY THEM!!!!!!

I got a call from this number at 5:30 am, and when I told them that it was to early to be calling and hung up they call back somehow they were able to make it come up 911 on my caller id. I answer it, told them I new they were a scam, because they had called before, told they they were being reported agian, then they cussed me out. They have been reported, agian.

I have been called from these people too and I have paid them for about 500 but on my next payment which was dec 30, 2011 noone in the amount of 400 noone called or even tired to contact me until four weeks later and I have already done my investigation and found out that they are not real and scam people out of money! Now that I have been a fool one time they want get me again and threating me but I talk my noise back and threat them if they contiue to keep calling or even sue them for taking what I have.

This person calling says he is with the Federal Crime and Enforcement Officer Austin Reed badge number 702, this a scam trying to get you to send them money from a Wal-Mart Prepaid Card or Western Union. I called the company he said he was filing against me they have nothing under my name also called the Fed and they reported this was illegal collection company doing scare tactics to collect money. Do not pay them, they are not legal.

a man called my house yesterday 3 times claiming to be a marshall. he said that if i didn't call john gates  at 904-450-4332 ext 572 by a certain time then he would come to my home and arrest me. I was not at home so I didn't talk to him he left me a message on my answering machine. it gave me chills to know that he has my address and phone number. he also did not say who I owe any money to.

He said he was a marshall and that if I didn't call this number by a certain time then he would come to my home and arrest me for fraud. he did not  give a date or antything.
