No one is on the line.

No one is on the line.

Wow. I had the worse day at work because I got one of those calls too. This A-Hole pestered the front desk secretary until she agreed to give me the message. I work for a Doctor and this harassment from this "Indian from the middle East" b*****d was extremely pushy and unprofessional to say the least.  He claimed to be an attorney by the name "Duane Johnson" working for a "Division? law firm" When I called back, a Hispanic woman answered stating she was the secretary acting on the attorney's behalf. She claimed her name was Sabrina Cruz for the firm: John Macciner. Their phone numbers came through my cell as: 123-456-7890 and 707-534-2308 . This woman told me that I owed $925. From an online loan and since they had "repeatedly been trying to "contact me" since January 2011, and now it is May 2011, I apparently owed this company ...believe it or not, $8000. And she said they were filing in court on Monday and that an officer would be coming to my house and that I should go with him to their offices to make a settlement or else they would take me in to the proper authorities and they would ruin my credit forever. I was miserable all day at work thinking that this was a nightmare. I had taken a couple of online loans with two very professional companies in the recent year and paid off in full since the funds were automatically deducted from my bank account for 3 consecutive pay periods. So... I shortly came to realize, after coming out of the shock, that these were scammers. I called back Mr."Duane Johnson" and told him off. I explained that perhaps he should go back to the middle East where he belongs instead of stealing from hard working Americans, especially working Moms with no other income than their work and he had caused problems for me with my Boss. I wish I knew how to end this situation.

I too got a pay day loan and yes a man with this indian/middle eastern accent called me this morning and left a message.  When I called back he told me I was being sued for 5,000 because I didnt pay the loan and the sherriff as coming to my job on Monday morning to serve me papers and I was going to loose my job and my check would get garnished.  I knew immediatley that they were a scam because I asked him why they didnt even answer the phone identifying themselves or the company name and he got mad and start asking me why was I mad if I paid them.  I realized I had nothing to worry about because they are taking the money directly out of my account. This is crazy because people are working hard, no one is trying to get over, and these people are pulling a scams on innocent people.  The num they called me from was 310 405 6186.  I too called back and they hung up on me.

Got another phone nuber for the a holes....806 496 2407.  It is a number out of slatin tx. Unfortunately I gave them the info they asked for but was suspicious called my loan company who told NE it was a scam I cancelled my check card and did a stop payment on my bank account right away so hopefully nothing further will come from them...

I had to come on this site to reinforce everything that Pepsi26 wrote in their post on 2-16-11. Everything WORD FOR WORD that he wrote happened to me as well. These guys have a indian or middle eastern accent that is very hard to understand and yes i too did a PAYDAY LOAN online and just like pepsi26 i also paid the loan back because it was Automatic withdrawal. That is how i knew right away that they were lying. They are very very very very convincing because they have your FULL NAME, YOUR ADDRESS, YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, YOUR DOB, YOUR WORK INFORMATION AND WORK PHONE # AND ONLY THE LAST 4 OF YOUR SS #. So yes they have practicly 85% of your personal information. However....what i figured they do not have is your FULL SS # or any of your BANK INFORMATION OR DEBIT CARD INFORAMTION. So that is what they scam for. Yes they can use your other info to try and commit fraud in your name but withot the ful ss# or your bank info they still cant really mess u up drastically. I am a police officer.. i wont say what city incase they montitor this website but boy did they pick the WRONG GUY to scam. Its seems they have found a way to obtain the information mainly thru people who use PAYDAY loans, which are quick and easy and small loans to cover you until your next pay or following pay. Those online applications can get very confusing and i bet they have a few dozen sites embedded to get your initial info. But listen to me..everything pepsi26 sad in the post is 100% true.. they WILL call your job and keep calling your job to embarass you. they will also keep CALLING YOUR REGULAR PHONE AS WELL. Once you have figured them to be scammers, they will change and become very crude..i mean VERY crude..they become vulgar and start saying disgusting sex things and call you the F word and much more. The identified themselves as UNITED FINANCIAL GRAND DIVISION and another time as CENTRAL AFFIDAVIT SERVICE. They actually forget they called you before (I'M NOT JOKING) they are a few a them using the names Justin Martin (alleged supervisior) and Alex Brown (alleged employee). I had personally called them back and pranked them myself and they quickly showed there true colors. They did not like being called back at any of the numbers they used and pranked on.. (that made me feel better). anyway..please  keep posting as much info as u can about this number and any OTHER NUMBER they use..i will dedicate the rest of my career to unmask these wanna be "bill collectors" until they give up.

He is talking nasty things, about phone sex.  I advised him this line was recorded and he called back about 10 more times and hung up.

Another SCAM number but this time they called me at work!!! DO NOT answer them, they are pulling the payday loan scam saying you owe them money. I was able to get the name they use. Name is United Financial Crime Division, person that called me is Steven Smith & the "Payday Loan" company name they use is Cash Advance. Do not give them any information. I've had calls the past week from about 4 different numbers stating i owe them money from different companies. They will say either resolve the issue by paying them or they will take you to court & an officer will arrest you in 24 hrs. They said i took this payday loan out on the internet which i know i did not and they will give an outstanding amount (they said mine was $1,400) I asked IF i wanted to resolve what do i need to give them and they ask for you to send an "apology" letter with your card number, exp. date, social security number, email, your signature & they tell you what to type. DO NOT send anything or give them any info. They will say is this "so and so", read you back only your last 4 of your SSN and address. Don't answer them....ask for their name, company name, phone number and google them. I googled them with the word SCAM then the number and found complaints that they are scammers. They are very aggresive also. I did have a payday loan but paid it and i called the company i got it from and they were able to tell me the process of retrieving the money. Their process is sending you letters from the payday company trying to retrieve the money if you owe them. if that doesn't work, they will then send you a letter from an attorney acting on their behalf. it gives you 30 days to pay or make arraingements with the company. They also said they will give you any information as far as how much the payday loan was, when it was taken out, how you can pay it (payments or full) and where to pay it. I asked this 'steven smith" for this information & he would not give me anything. Simply just saying i either "convince" the head attorney that i can make a payment or i will be picked up at work and would have to plead my case in front of the judge. I said take me to court, i looked you up and your a scammer, your company does not exist and do not call my work again. All he could say was i "cheated" the company which i know isn't true because THEY DO NOT EXIST! Please don't answer this number or give them any information. Once they know they get information they will keep calling you...
