If you give money to strangers who call and abuse you without validating the debt, then you may have given money to a scammer. Legit collectors, per section 809 of the FDCPA http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre27.pdf , *must* send you paperwork stating :
1. amount and the name of the current creditor (which may differ from the original creditor who might have sold your debt),
2. that debt will be assumed to be valid unless you dispute in writing within 30 days,
3. that if you do dispute in writing, the collector must mail you written verification of the debt,
4. that if you ask the collector in writing within 30 days, the collector must send you the name and address of the original creditor if it's different from the current creditor.
If you don't get the paperwork (you do not have to ask for it, the FDCPA requires the collector to send it), treat the collector like you would any SCAMMER.
Our law firm has received calls from this service claiming our clients have committed fraud. They are unwilling to send any paperwork confirming the debts and they threaten criminal law suits but do not actually file them. Please look at the links to the FBI website http://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/press-releases/paydayloanscam_120710 and the FTC http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre27.pdf .
Hi I got a phone call from this number they stated that I owed 510 for a payday loan...I do remember the debt , I got the loan and then lost my job so I couldn't pay it ... I really didn't know what to do about it . Tiffany did call me she was very helpful I got a settlement on the account and borrowed the money from my dad and mom.. this company is not a scam after I paid I got my letter stating that it was paid. The payment did come up under rothstein and Klein but as a trustee ... they did have all my info ss# and address and my references that I had used... u know weather u take out a loan or not .. people don't just forget those things and u also know weather or not that u paid it.... in addition to all of this I also made some payments to the actual payday loan company and when I told tiffany this she avised me that this was a interest only payment .. I found the number of the actual creditor and did some research and that is exactly what it was .. and on another note when I called the original creditor they did asvise me that the debt has been placed with this company for collections because they attempted to collect on It by sending me an email with no success....so once again I was very thankful that I was contacted by this company to get this cleared up I do like to pay for the things that I know I do that is in the wrong...so don't mistake this company to be a scam ...u know if u took out the loan just pay it... they will work with ur situation that u are in..... thank u
