I got an email from Melissa Ballentine saying that i will be takin to court and my social is put on hold for not paying a loan back to Us Cash Advance. The same email scam and phone number popping up and calls by that everyone else got. And yes it is a scam because i actually called an old friend who is from Texas and he said that you would have gotten notices in the mail and you would have been served with papers from the constable by your city or state.

I got a email today saying im going to lose my job and go to jail unless i pay them. I don't have any loans out im not paying them anything. I told her to have the police come get me

I received an email stating exactly what other posts are saying. The email address is a gmail address. If it was a company or government entity it would have a company (dot)com email address.
I do not have any outstanding payday loans. THIS IS A SCAM!
Reported the email as a phishing email to google.

These ppl are threatening my family with call. They are a scam do pay anything to them!

got several calls from 210-3469692 and emials.  never received loan  

I receive at least one email a week from these characters.  I would suggest ignoring them.  I have contacted an attorney and he has indicated that it is just a scam.  I have reported these emails to the appropriate individuals and also have listed them on scam-o-meter.
As long as these individuals do not receive anything from any of us-then maybe they will get the message and leave us alone.  

Called me to ask if someone would be available to sign for papers for my husband. (not on his phone but mine) I knew there was no legal representation who would call first. So I said she had the wrong number. When I tried to "reverse look up" YP.com had no record of it. So I googled the number and found this page! Man am I glad I know servers just show up! they don't call first!

Damn! They almost got me...,Thank you almighty lord for guiding me to see this website. That's help me to know this fake state prosecutor that claiming she a serious state attorney in US American Cash Advance. I'm about to pay them tomorrow morning using the "Green Dot MoneyPak" worth $150.00 every other week.
 Good thing, after i sent email to Julia Robinson (Fake PROSECUTOR) and ask her to send me the document paper stating all my personal information about the lender company...., and she replies like these...?"Go check your previous emails to see how much your total balance" but when i check and read her old mailed to me, is not giving much information i needed. That's the time i felt doubt and start searching  the "Holland And Hart Associates" and found out compalint messages.
  i wish all our FBI Agents can get this stupid persons or stop this online scam access before they have a victims.

Recieved an Email today from some lady named Melissa Ballentine and she says she is from Holland and Hart Associates.  They have my social and address and they also have a case number against me..They want me to call 210-646-9692 ext 5001.  This is a SCAM!!!!

Recieved and email today stating that this Melissa Ballentine from Holland and Hart Associates .  They have my social and my address.  They state that I have a case number against me. They want me to call back at 210-346-9692 ext 5001.  This is a big SCAM DO NOT call them!!!! They have my social and I am reporting them to the police

It is a total scam.  Any chance you could post of the email address or addresses associated with this number.  Thank you in advance

Received an E-Mail from  a person at this number. Stated that I had a court case, and gave me the case number. Did not return the E-mail. Person wanted me to call back, so they could be my attorney.

When I did a reverse search on the phone number, it comes up Ymax corporation (magic jack)  I don't believe anyone from the FTC would use a magic jack phone number or have a gmail account.  I am also receiving emails from this woman.  

they keep calling me threatening me with fraud.  Saying I will lose my job and be arrested if I don't pay money on a green dot money card.  When I asked what I owe this money for, they respond I will receive my case file once I pay it off.  They claim I owe $1910 but will accept a one time payment of $856.  They also change the amount everytime they call.  SCAM   If I owe anything why won't they tell me who I owe or mail me the information.

I got the same email!!! Is it a scam???

See if your email provider has a block sender function.  Of course you know this is a scam by the poorly worded message, reference to a nonexistent department and incorrect legal terminology, ie lawsuit for fraud and criminal activities.  Lawsuits are civil actions and not used in criminal cases.  Also, if there were criminal allegations against you, you would very likely be receiving notice in person from a law enforcement officer not some flaky email.

Let me introduce myself. I am Senior Affidavit Processor Officer Susan Anderson from State Investigation Department. As we were trying to reach you since a couple of days regarding a very serious matter about a lawsuit filed on your name stating that you are doing some fraud nd criminal activities.

I am really very sorry to say you that you are going to be legally prosecuted in the Court House within couple of days. Your SSN is put on hold by US Government, so before something goes wrong I thought that I shall call you and notify you about this matter. But as I was not able to reach you I am sending you an final notification Email. So please take a piece of paper and write down your case file TX#001021 and second thing since it?s a leg

THIS IS THE 3RD EMAIL FROM THESE PEOPLE.  HOW CAN I GET THEM TO STOP SENDING ME EMAILS...

THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO SCAM PPL THEY SENT ME A EMAIL THREATENING ME, THEY COULDNT GET SOME OF THE WORDS CORRECTLY SPELLED. HOW CAN SOMEONE STOP THESE PEOPLE?

To  rcna89.....I am sure that you have taken care of your problem with the email that you have received. I received the same email as well. The email stated that they were in Utica, N.Y. but the number they listed has the area code 210 which is for the state of Texas.

I received a email on Oct 28,2013 stated that if I did not call within the next 24 hours that I would be arrested also said that when I call I need to have the following info the file number and ss#  and a debit card ready to pay what I owe. Her name was Christy Adams. I called her and before I gave any info I asked to send me a letter or could she tell me some info about the situation and she got very aggressive and said that she did not have to tell me anything that I just better pay that money or I am going to jail and then she hung up. It is a scam and they have been reported.

I received numerous email saying I borrowed 300 dollars & I could settle out of court I had to pay restitution of   1130 I threatened to contact law enforcement in my area & they stopped emailing me I was kinda scared but I googled the 210 number and it said it was a scam

IGNORE them! They're scammers WANTING to scare you into giving them money. They hold utterly no power other than that of fear and threats.

I would also report them to your local LEA, phone carrier, and ISP if they e-mailed.

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.

This started after being denied for cash advances I signed up for online.  I believe thats how they get your important information. This information may have been sold to these foreign countries trying to make a profit.

They did this to me years ago now they starting again with my social. If you,get any calls or emails from this bogus person tell them to kiss your a** and keep it moving!

received email with name of Susan Anderson, State Investigator, Utica, NY at a phone number of 210-3346-9692 Ext. 2001. Stating that a lawsuit was filed and soon processed . Had my name, address, and that my ss# had bee,n captured, froze from US federal government.  Stated that from running Id trough credit system was found to be honorable person, wanted to know if I wanted to settle out of court.  No set amount of money was mentioned that I owed to USA Cash Advance.  I actually do have default loan in amount of $200 from 2002,/Aug-Oct. ;that I have paid on or up so long can't remember.  I have read others reported same claim for money scam.  Also looked up company, it has F rating from BBB.  I will report email and incident to BBB and FTC.  Thank you, rcna89.

They have my social security number too!  This is crazy.  I dont know who they are and how they got that info with an old cell phone number plus email address.  Who do I contact at my local police department?

Got an email from them. I am reporting them to local law enforcement. I am worried as they have my ss#.

Got a email. I call, its a African accent, but they have my ssn, what can I do
