they keep calling me saying they are taking me to court, i have no clue who they are. They demanded me to pay $350 in order for this not to show on my credit report.
| joe 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
these loosers contacted both my kids with threats that if they did not "rat me out, they too would be liable for the debt" (son recorded the call & we both have copies of the tape)
| Lisa 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
I never receievd any phone calls but did notice an un authorized debit from my bank acct of almost $200! i have attempted to contact PMI to find out what debt they are illegally collecting from my acct and can not get anyone to return my calls. I have filed a formal complaint with the better business bureau and am making my way to my local law enforcement office. The people calling me are calling from an Ohio number.
| Jacque' Burton 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
I just got off the telephone with them and asked them for an address and i got the run around. I have been threathened to be taking to court also. PMI say there are a law firm. number is #614-586-4288 and 716-362-4922.

Everyone stop worrying about PMI Associates. No matter what they threaten you and how convincing they sound, they are a scam. Somehow they did get their hands on some legitimate information about a payday loan you may have taken out long ago and are counting on you not having good records or memories of it (especially if you repaid it in full). They will threaten with all kinds of scary stuff but its just talk. I called their bluff when they contacted me about six months ago...they said I would be arrested if I did not send them money and I'm still here.
p.s. they like to search for web posts like these and rebuff them as a legitimate organization, don't let them fool you. So in case you are reading this PMI Associates...I won and you lost.

Watch out. Now the associates of Lincoln Alexander are using email to try and get money out of people. They sent out a mass email (it even shows all of the email addresses they sent this to) that says the following:
" American Customized Network LLC
A Professional Corporation
Attorneys and Investigators
Lockport Professional Towers
1-866-346-4096
12/29/2008
Attorney: Lincoln Alexander 175204
"NOTICE OF BILL OF SALE AND INTENT TO PROCEED WITH LEGAL ACTION
Dear CASHNET CUSTOMER,
Your delinquent account with (Ca$hNetUSA) has been SOLD to our firm for finalization at this time we are exercising our rights to proceed with this matter in a formal court system, you hereby have 7 days to review validity of this claim or make voluntary restitution to avoid all legal action. 7 days also includes filing time with your local jurisdiction.
Sincerely,
Lincoln Alexander
Director of Operations"
The email was sent by an Anthony Jamieson which has him listed at acnetworkandassociates@gmail.com. After doing a little research, there is no Lockport Towers in New York. I also have never got any kind of dunning letter from PMI or Lincoln Alexander which is supposed to be sent by a debt collector 5 days after their first call to my number which they're supposed to do according to FDPA. Also, I found no bar license for a Lincoln Alexander to practice law in New York (where PMI is supposed to be located) or in Ohio where the 614 area code is located.
I would report this guy to your state Attorney General's Office as well as the FTC. This guy's outfit before sending the mass email used to call me several times a day saying that if I didn't pay up that I would get arrested for bank fraud or some other terrible thing would happen. Then they'd leave messages saying that if I didn't pay up that some kind of legal action would happen. I then emailed Lincoln Alexander (via return receipt) asking for validation of the debt and received no response. It's obvious this mass email is a new way to extort money from people. I would report this guy.

These people left a message on my parents machine, which I have lived on my own for 13 plus years! So I called them to let PAULA know that she needed to take down my home number and we could discuss this matter when it was convenient for me. She stated " you will not dictate to me what I will do!" One of the rudest people I have ever spoke with in my life! Then since I called them back from my place of employment they were able to track me down and actually submitted a Verification of Employment to my employer. Which I declined to sign. I called them and spoke with a different person and stated that I wanted documentation mailed to my current address validating this debt. He agreed so we will see!
| Hambone 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
Ok guys. The numbers that you have noted in your posting are active numbers. But these people have a way of making it SEEM like they are not working numbers.
I just called the 614 number on November 26, 2008. The day before Thanksgiving. It was working fine. So fine in fact that the B***** threatened to trace my number and call the police if I called her one more time.
The point is. These people make it a business of harrassing others, but not giving you a chance to make right on any ALLEGED over due loans. They get a kick out of scaring you.
Call their bluff. The email address listing in one of the postings is for a Lincoln Alexander. I am sure if the real Lincoln Alexander knew that name was being used in this manner, he would not be pleased. This is a World War II Veteran, with the Royal Canadian Air Force. He grew up in Torronto and NY city. Which by the way is where most of this companies contact information leads back to. Any way, Mr. Alexander graduated from the Osgood Hall Law School in Torronto. In 1968 he was the first black member of Parliament for 4 successive Federal Elections. The list goes on and on.
The point is this PMI company is using a front name, front addresses, and phone numbers that are easily turned off and on at a moments notice.
My advice. Do not give them ANY money. DEMAND documentation. And challenge them on thier threats to take you to court. Because when they file in court, there HAS to be some kind of legitimate contact information. Then you can file a counter suit for harrassment.
I am not a lawyer. Just someone that has done some research.
And if the B**** wants to challenge me I am FIXIN' TO CALL MY LAWYER! You want to tattle to my mother again!
| tweety 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
To dawn:
Dont let them scare you simply get in contact with the original debtor and make your payment arrangments through them --fax pmi a cease and desist letter so they cant call you anymore. Fax#614-586-4289

I got a call stating that if I didn't come up w/$50 by friday in the 1st wk of oct. 2008 that they were going to prosecute me for bank fraud. Last yr. both my mom & I were homeless atfer losing a habitability issue w/our lanlord & our purses were stolen. We closed out our 1st checking acct & I could only open a checking since my mom didn't have the proper paper wk to get her NV ID. I had a pay day loan w/Cash Net USA & had boorwed from them many times before & never failed to pay them back. Since my ID was stolen in may of 2007 & I re-opened my checking acct whoever stole my purse was draining my acct. & my bank never could catch the person doing it. It was reprited to my bank when my purse was stolen as well as a police report made. When I called Cash Net USA & asked them for an extention until march 3rd 2008 they said no; however, they did give me the extention w/o notifying me. I finally had to close out my checking to prevent whoever was draining my acct. from continuing to do so. I got a Call from PMI & Assoc. & set up w/them a monthly pymnt plan for them to debit my Direct Express card on the 3rd of every month; however, they decided to debit my other prepaid master card & the pymnt bounced. I can't go to prison as I'm the only sole care take of a legally blind & very ill mother. They refused to allow me to send them my monthly pymnts in the form of a money order & both my mother & I found that to be a huge red flag. I don't know what other recourse I have. I do owe the money but would like to make monthly payments in the form of a money order. What can I do & waht are my other alternatives?
| Mad as hell 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
Just got a call and they said to me they must have had the wrong number...
| Jos 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
I received a call from a Murray Johnson indicating she was filing a case with the county where I reside in Texas. She ended the message with "good luck". I am filing a complaint with the Ohio Attorney General's office. These are SCUM-SCAM Artist of the worst kind.
| Uniden 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
We have been receiving calls from PMI associates stating that they will be charging my husband with bank fraud. They state that it is from a pay day loan taken out in 2001 (sometimes they say it is in 2002). They refuse to provide any documentation regarding this. They tell me that i must make arrangments first then they will send me some documentation. DO NOT SEND THESE PEOPLE ANY MONEY. If they are legit, they should be able to provide the documentation!!!!
P.S.To debtors are scum, may be you should get a real job instead of calling people, harssing them and scamming them out of their real hard earned money. I think YOU ARE SCUM.!!
| REsearch 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
This number is calling harassing my ex-mother-in-law and my ex-husband ex-wife for me. This is very unacceptable.
| cynthia 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
called my work phone and stated that i owed them $600 for a pyday loan from 2001 but couldn't give me any information about my so called account with them. and when i asked how they got my number, i was told that they hired a private investigator to find me
| Dana 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
I just got the same call today, saying I owed from a payday loan back in 2002...when I told them I was in Korea they changed the year to 2000. I don't get it...
They wouldn't give me any information about themselves...and really got pretty nasty on the phone
| SA 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
I have been receiving harrassing calls stating that I owe money for a loan that I already have been paying on. The Supervisior( who 1st day was yesterday, told me she would garnish my paycheck if I didn't pay her 600.00.) This is not acceptable to me, and it make me very angry. Also, the supervisior threatened to call her attorney because I was getting extremly frustrated with her and her lies.
I did write a complaint about the company to the attorney general in minnesota and nothing was done to stop the harrassment. they have violated many aspects to the fair debt collection act, which the supervisior stated that she didn't have to abide by due to PMI is a claims company not a collection. I beg to differ with the supervisior .

614-586-4288 Marie Johnson called & refered me to someone who was handling my case. WHAT CASE ???? I listened to the whole speal, asked to have the documents forwarded via fax machine so I can review what they are reading to me.

| Angelia 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
Boy did they ruffel my feathers. Stating that I owed a payday loan from 2001 and that my sister co-signed (who was in another state at that time). What payday loan??? And how did they get all of my information? I had a voice message from Debra Miller with PMI and when I called back spoke to a an "Invesigator Emily Johnson" at 614-586-4288 Ext 107 and they were trying to get me to make payment arrangements right then. I don't think so. Until I get something in the mail that states I owe, I am not paying anything.
| Ardra 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
I think this is a scam because these people keep calling and will not send documentation. At one point they were trying to make a deal with my husband if he make a payment of $350 then $300 by credit card. They have a lot of my information but are unable to product documentation. They said I borrowed money back in 2002 and it was a payday loan with Cheyenne Bank. I have been in the same location since 1999 and my bank has not change so I think that some how they have gotten my information from the bank and are trying to get money out of me.

Received call about 10 min ago from Ph (614) 586-4288 asking to verify the last four of my social. I refused. Don't ever verify anything over the phone with these people. They are manipulative. They say they are a special invesitigative unit calling in order to avoid sending this to their "warrant" office who will arrest me. So, I told the girl I wouldn't verify anything, to give me the info she had. She said she had nothing, she had to transfer me to the "arbitration officer" to discuss the legal matter. When this ignoramous got on the phone, he was using sland and I said to him, "I'm going to record this call for my local law enforcement agency, I will not continue to speak with you unless I have your permission to record the conversation?" He kept trying to speak over me and I kept saying the same thing. He then hung up. Like I said, don't verify any information with these people, and tell them you will not continue to speak until you have their permission to record the call. They will stop bothering you. Good luck to you all.

Received a call on October 1, 2008. They said I owed $500.00 on a payday loan back in 2004. I don't owe on any payday loan back in 2004. They said if I didn't pay they could garnish my pay. They even threatened to take me to court. They had information on me, and I don't know where they got it. They said they were going to deduct $250.00 on 10/23/08 and $250.00 on 11/28/08 from my checking account. I wrote them a letter 10/14/08 to the address they had on an envelope (4779 Transit Rd. Suite 8, Depew, NY 14043), and told them I was going to stop payment, and I was having there company investigated. I am really upset about this. They are going to screw my checking account up if this happens. I called my bank in regards to this debt to stop payment, but they said I have to work with the merchant........how can I do that if there is no merchant. I can't believe the bank won't help me. Help!
| all 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
When they call, contact them back and demand their physical address. They will try every tactic in the book to change the subject, keep demanding it.
Say some stuff to bruise whoever you are speaking with's ego - keep demanding address. They will get frustrated and hang up. When they call you back, don't answer. They will leave a voicemail full of false information. You now have evidence of them lying on tape or providing false info, etc.
You just need to engage them in conversation and set the hook. They will incriminate themselves after that. Make sure to record call.
| I.N 2011-06-06 20:52:37 Unknown |
A phone report on this number reveals that it is from a land line in Ohio. A real company would not have their phone # as being private. Only scammers do not want you to be able to find them. Other information obtained that it is located in Franklin county in Ohio and a name assocaited with it is Leslie. If anybody can get more information please let us know. These people should not be able to get away with what they are doing.

Be advised - these scumbags have, yet again, changed their identity. This month, they are now operating under the name PMR Law Group. They have a new website, www.pmrlawgroup.com, and now list their "World Corporate Headquarters" as being in Canada. The old PMI Associates website is no longer active. For your convenience (since you're a valued customer), they'll even take a check or credit card payment via their website! How nice of them. If you're new to this forum (because some lowlife scam artist left you or your friend an illegal voicemail), don't sweat these idiots. A few facts: 1) By not providing you with written verification of any debt owed and also a written notice outlining your rights to dispute, they have violated the FDCPA. 2) By leaving messages with third parties throwing out terms like "civil litagation", "bank fraud", etc., they have violated the FDCPA. 3) By saying that they don't have to abide by the FDCPA because they're a LAW FIRM (ooh, scary)and not a collections agency, they are wrong and need to brush up on the applicable laws. 4) By telling you that they will not sue you, but will put a judgement entry on your credit report without an actual judgement (requires you to be served prior to an actual court date prior to the court issuing a judgement), they are wrong and need to brush up on fundamental law processes and procedure. These are but a few of the tactics they are using to dupe you. Don't buy any of it. Just my two cents. Now I'll wait for some phony to show up here and respond to my statement. Check out the other forums and see if you can identify the scumbag employee of this firm who surfs the web looking for these type of posts.

If you guys keep getting harassed by PMI and AC Network, contact an attorney with the National Association Of Consumer Advocates. You can find a NACA attorney in your area by going to their web site at www.naca.net. Abusive debt collectors need to be held accountable for their actions. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act is very specific about what debt collectors can and can't do. If they violate this law they can be sued.
