call me 4 to 5 times at my work and asked to speak to my supervisor
who got on phone and asked Mr Shaun Carter not to call my work anymore
that he was violating the FDCPA but called again asked for a good #
and told me i was in serious trouble so like a dummy i gave him my cell#
but of course i had no minutes so this morning he started again.
jenny why didn't you answer your phone and i asked very polietly not to call my job or may loose my job and my other manager got the phone and he and mr
carter exchanged words. He works for some legal firm that involves payday loans. i plan to report this man to FDC as soon as i can
i just hope i can keep my job.

I keep getting these calls from this number at work and at home. This is a scam.

called my work and said i had one hour to respond. if not i wish you good luck.

get calls from the same person from different caller ID's claiming different companies but with same message of legal matters and such and threatening to cause e trouble.  When I call back to give them my lawyer's number I get a siren type sound.  Once I had my lawyer on three way when I finally got someone and the person told us to F off.

I've received a call this morning from a Mr. Daniel Page.  Actually there was another individual that made the phone call and once he was in contact with me, he put me on hold so his "supervisor", Mr. Daniel Page, could speak with me.  He told me that I'm being sued tomorrow for failure to pay a pay day loan with US Advanced Cash out of Missouri from 2005...I've never even heard of them!  Told me to submit a payment of $670.00 or I'll be sorry.  He told me that he was calling on behalf of Jason Reeds & Associates located in Ft. Lauderdale...never heard of them!  Someone somewhere has sold my personal information to this company of Middle Eastern speaking individuals, for the sake of capitalizing their margin of gain...sad, but scammers like this are out there.  

Be careful and have a lawyer handle any legal proceedings in the case a legitimate situation as such should arise.  They will be better suited to deal with said companies.

received a call from this phone 954 358 4084 stating that his name was Paul Harris. I had previously received calls from someone claiming to be a Sean Carter from the same number. i am aware this is a scam but they continue to call my job. this time i did not introduce myself and told them that i was out for the week. he requested that i take his number and advise to return his call. he had a very deep accent from another country as always.  something needs to be done about these people harassing them for monies.  people would be a fool to give them anything and they should be stopped!!!

These people have been told numerous times to leave me alone and stop harrassing me about the so called unpaid payday loan. I was told 2 weeks ago that that call was my last chance before they filed the claim in the court. I finally got a mailing address for them Hopefully it is a legimate one. They would not give me the number they were calling from. Today i told them i have been waiting 2 years for them to go to court and i am tired of this. I am giving the information they provided me with to my attorney and hopefully it will finally stop. They will not provide valid proof or anything and expect you to pay them. HA HA. nice try.

keep calling my work. this is a scam report to ftc.

Called me yesterday and today at work.  His name is Anthony Jones when he calls me.  He called twice today and multiple times yesterday. If I hang up he calls right back over and over again.  I have reported this to the FBI and to the state Attorney General's Office.  I hope they are soon caught and their lips are sewn together!

Called our switchboard ofer 40 times today looking for an employee that quit last October.  Would not believe our operator. When HR got involved we were told it was Anthony Jones from Jason Reed Assoc. of Ft. Lauderdale,FL. I googled the name and found this site and others.  Tried to call the phone numbers and got busy signals.  Imagine that!
What a scam

Got calls from them back in July. Submitted complaint to illinois attorney general. Phone calls stopped.  Started again last week.  Anthony Jones or Andrew Jones has claimed to be from the Federal Legislative Bureau and today when we called the cops after about the 100th call, he told the police he worked for our corporate office.  We don't have a corporate office other than where I work.  Told me and our receptionist that he doesn't want money from me...he is simply calling now to make us repent calling him names.

I have received multiple phone calls at work from this stupid scammer. He was not able to reach me and started harrassing my supervisor. We are now attempting to file legal charges against this fool.

I RECIEVED A CALL TODAY FROM 7167950703 FROM SOME GUY ASKING FOR ME. WHEN I ASKED WHO HE WAS HE SAID A NAME I DONT REMEMBER. HE TOLD ME HE WAS CALLING FROM SOME GENEAL ATTORNEY OFFICE. I SAID IN REGARDS TO WHAT. THEN HE WAS STUDDERING REALLY BAD. AND KEPT ASKING ME TO HOLD ON. THEN AFTER THE 3RD HOLD  TOLD HIM BEFORE HE TALK GET HIS LIE STRAIGHT FIRST AND THEN TALK TO ME. SO HE TOLD ME TO HOLD ON. THEN SOME MAN NAME SAM SCOTT GOT ON THE PHONE. HE TOLD ME THAT I AM A PRIMARY REFERENCE FOR SOMEONE ELSE. I ASK WHAT THAT GOT TO DO WITH ME. HE THEN TELLS ME THAT THIS PERSON IS BEING SUED ON 3 ALLEGATIONS IN REGARDS TO THEIR SS# AND A UNPAID $300 LOAN. I SAID AGAIN "WTF THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ME." THEN I ASK HIM FOR THIS PERSON WHOLE NAME AND NUMBER SO I CAN CALL THEM AND FIND OUT WHO THEY WERE. HE GAVE ME ALL THAT INFO. THEN I STARTED QUESTIONING HIM MORE ABOUT HIS COMPANY NAME BUT THEN HE TELLS ME HE CANT TELL ME WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED. I ASK FOR HIS TELEPHONE NUMBER. AFTER HE GAVE IT TO ME AND I STARTED QUESTIONING HIM MORE ABOUT THIS PERSON THEY ARE SUPPOSEDLY SUING I WAS CALLING THAT NUMBER. I COULD HAVE HEAR THE PHONE RINGING. SO I CURSED HIM OUT BECAUSE HE WOULDNT TELL ME LOCATION BUT COULD TELL EVERYTHING ELSE. THEN HE HUNG UP. SO I CALLED BACK. THEN HE TELLS ME THAT HIS PHONE HAD TECH PROBLEM AND IT HUNG UP ON ACCIDENT. I TOLD HIM NOT TO CALL MY F***ING PHONE BACK. HE THEN HANGS UP AND CALL BACK AGAIN. SO I TOLD HIM I WAS CALLING THE POLICE ON HIM FOR HARASSMENT. HE HUNG UP AGAIN. I CALLED THIS FEMALE THAT HE TOLD ME THE INFO FOR AND I ALSO RESEARCH THIS INFO AND FOUND THIS SITE. WHAT A MESS. SHE ALSO GOT HER BANK INVOLVE BECAUSE SHE SAID HER BANK TOLD HER THEY PLACED $0.00 IN HER ACCOUNT AND HAVE PROOF OF THAT. SHE WAS TRYING TO APPLY FOR A LOAN BUT HAD A HARD TIME.

Got a call today from this number..I got the message and it was from a "Rachel".  She told the receptionist that I had a case pending on me against my SS# for a crime.  The number she left for me to call was 954-358-4084.  It is a scam and I will not return the call.  I asked what the name of the company was and she said "Jason/Jasen Reed Associates.  I asked for a 1-800 number and she told me that they dont have one.  It's a SCAM.  They can NOT arrest you and there is nothing you can do.  Report any and all info to the FTC and your local authorities.

Look at link above!
these are extortion crooks dont give them $$$$ or any info on yourself!

Here's another number they are using:  866-570-0132.  Look that number up and see all the posts there.  Same people, same scam.  It's funny to see that they keep changing their names.  They read these posts and see us saying if "Peter" calls or "Shawn Carter" or any of the others that we list to ignore them.  So they switch their names to Eric, Jason, etc.  
So when we call them to say "Shawn Carter" or "Peter" just called and harrassed me, they will now say there is nobody there by that name and there never was anybody there by that name.  No matter what name they use, we still know those thick foreign accents.  And we will know that they are scammers, harrassers, retards & frauds.  Period.

I believe that the more people post on these sites and the more numbers the scammers use are revealed, word will really spread about these cons.  The more people know about these scammers, the more people will report them to the proper authorities and will file complaints.

these people have called me 28 times since 8:45 this morning. they have called me a total of 83 times since june 29th. you would think that they would understand that i am not going to answer.

i looked this area code up and all it says is personal communications. just thought i would let everyone know.

they are calling again this morning, two times in less than a minute. i just keep sending them to voicemail they haven't left a mssg this morning though. you would think they would get the hint. but i guess not. they must think now that i will just give them whatever they want, but it isn't happening. these people are horrible!

i got another call from a different number with a 500 area code and a phone number with only 6 digits in it. i guess it is some way to block their number. the number was 500-447-852. they called once and left a mssg that i immediately deleted without listening to it. and then they have called back again about 15 minutes later without leaving a mssg. after sending them all of the money i did before i found out what scam artists they are, they are absolutely insane if they think i would ever listen to anything else they ever have to say! i have cancelled my bank cards and hopefully that will stop them from getting anything else out of my acct!

That's good you stopped it.  They are just horrible and a bunch of idiots!

it showed up as a debit, and then it said 702 220 8456 Antigua AG

that is all it said. i asked the bank about it and they said they have any other information on it. i cancelled that card, that is the only card info that they have. i double checked with more than one person at the bank, and they said that as long as they don't have your routing number and account number, which they don't, they shouldn't be able to access anything our account. i am not taking anymore of their calls. i am just ignoring them and deleting their voicemails without even listening to them. they are crazy if they think they are getting one more dime from me. i have also seen them show up as "pay my bill". hopefully that helps someone else!

Glad you stopped that transaction.  Did they have this debit card number?  What did the transaction show up as?  Just curious so people can be aware of what company name shows up.  If you have any other cards, accounts or anything you think they might have, cancel them and close them.  I noticed from other posts that they are changing their names from the usual Peter, Shawn, Robert & Steve.  I guess they think that if we don't recognize the names that are not listed on here, we will take the call.  Nobody should be fooled by that thick, foreign accent.

Got a call from Eric Brunfield????  First he said his name was Peter then quickly changed it to Eric???  He couldn't even prounce this name!  What a joke!  Like I'd EVER pay them money!  They can't even send documentation.  What a scam!  Don't fall for it!

these people actually debited 29.79 out of my checking acct today, plus the .30 foreign transaction fee. i cancelled the debit card they used so that they can't get more. i have also reported it to the bank these people have got to be stopped!! i am glad i noticed the strange transaction while it was still pending so that i could keep an eye on it and see what it was, and that they didn't take out the 3200.00 that they want!

Steel Magnolia - THANK YOU!  I hope that "Steve" reads your post and I hope he puts another stupid, can't spell or write proper English, idiotic post on here again so we can all get a laugh out of it!  They are such a joke and a bunch of idiots.

"Steve's" mastery of the English language is about as limited as is his compliance with FDCPA laws...

"But for your informations we are registered with FTC and BBB".

Rubbish.

Your claim to be a respresentaive of a Federal Agency (in itself), is a SERIOUS crime, Sir.

"Because we are very firm that you are shooting this kind of blogs on the internet to make and feel people negative impression about our company."

You don't need OUR help in documenting 'negative impression' about your 'company'. You have already accomplished this fact by YOURSELF.

For example, we already know that your collectors have blatantly and repeatedly violated Federal and State laws (and this is STRAIGHT off the FTC's website), to wit:

Harassment. Debt collectors may not harass, oppress, or abuse you or any third parties they contact. For example, they may not:

use threats of violence or harm;
use obscene or profane language; or
repeatedly use the phone to annoy someone.

False statements. Debt collectors may not lie when they are trying to collect a debt. For example, they may not:

falsely claim that they are attorneys or government representatives;
falsely claim that you have committed a crime;
falsely represent that they operate or work for a credit reporting company;
misrepresent the amount you owe;
indicate that papers they send you are legal forms if they aren?t; or
indicate that papers they send to you aren?t legal forms if they are.

Debt collectors also are prohibited from saying that:

you will be arrested if you don?t pay your debt;
they?ll seize, garnish, attach, or sell your property or wages unless they are permitted by law to take the action and intend to do so; or
legal action will be taken against you, if doing so would be illegal or if they don?t intend to take the action.

Unfair practices. Debt collectors may not engage in unfair practices when they try to collect a debt. For example, they may not:
-take or threaten to take your property unless it can be done legally.

I am sure that you can read the above, "Steve", since you have spent so much time posting rebuttals and making veiled threats against others on this website regarding the ILLEGAL debt collection practices commited by your organization. And, as so many posters have said before, if you ARE a "legitimate" third party collection agency (as you claim to be), then PROVE it to us: STOP BREAKING THE LAW!

Sam Scott and John Matthews from this number, 954-358-4084, called me at work yesterday constantly from 1:30 p.m. til 4:30 p.m.  Same message as the others -- that I needed to give them my supervisor "right now!" (he was out of the office).  After the fist 2 hours I transferred the call to our HR Manager, and she told him also not to call anymore -- to no avail.  Trying to reason with them was useless.  Asking for a supervior on their end was useless.  Bottom line was that they didn't want my money, they wanted me to get fired from my job and let all my family and friends know what a liar I was.  The firm name they gave was Jason Reed & Associates -- supposedly attorneys (although when I call the name they give is Financal Misconduct Division).  The address they gave was in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida so I notified the Inspector General of this event.  They have promised to call me work again on Monday.  Could be interesting.

They can't sue you for anything, even an oral contract.  Don't pay them anything at all!  Don't give them your credit card numbers or bank account into.  Next time they call and ask you what your intentions are tell them your intentions are for them to kiss your a$$!  And hang up!

Dear "frustrated in texas", They are HUGE scammers and frauds.  They have contacted me too and have threatened to send people, arrest me, claim they were officers, said they filed a lawsuite against my SS#, etc etc.  The last time they called me (I have all their conversations recorded), I kept asking him what "law firm" or "crime division dept" this was.  They would never answer and kept changing the subject.  I would interrupt and ask them to tell me their full names and spell them, which they couldn't even spell.  Then they told me to "hold" for the officer.  This "officer" gets on the phone and I asked him what branch of law enforcement he was with.  Then he changed it to "I'm just a supervisor", then it changed to an "attorney".  I asked him what law school he went to and he tried to change the subject again.  Then he said he was sending 2 people with seach warrants to come and get me.  I told him to send them and I'd be waiting and laughed my butt off!  Of course nobody showed up.  I knew nobody would.  After I tried getting answers to all MY questions, they just ended up hanging up on me.  I did my research too.  They are just scammers.  They said I owed a payday loan (I never even took one out) from Cashnet usa.  I even called Cashnet usa and they said I have never had an account with them.  I told them about these weird people calling and cashnet advised me to just hang up when they call.  Cashnet knows of these kind of people and are aware of what they are doing.  They've even told me to "show up for court in the morning at 9 AM"!  I asked what court and they couldn't answer.  I asked them what juridiction was the lawsuit filed and they can't answer that.  They don't even know what that word means!  And I've told them not to call me at work and they said they would keep calling and calling.  Our receptionist said in a 20 minute time they called 12 times.  I found it really funny when I read that they had put a few comments on this site (The one's from "STEVE").  They don't follow any of the FDCPA laws and I really laughed when they said they were registered with the BBB.  I laughed at the replies people put after reading his little "note".  So, don't give in to their threats of any kind.  Just know that they can't do anything to you at all!  Just laugh and hang up.  I hope they get caught too.  I have family in the FBI and have given them these recordings.  They will be able to trace the calls.  I've also reported them to the attorney generals office, the BBB, the FTC, the police dept.  All of these places where the complaints have been filed know these scammers very well.  These so called "debt collectors" will say anything to scare you into thinking they have power over you.  They are just a bunch of nobody's!
