Got another email saying the same things from Just John Harrison Harrison Law Group that they are taking me to court in couple of days same as the ones Obote me said. Do not know who they are and what they want hope it is a scam.
SCAM ALERT!
I first got the e-mail below from the person posing as a law firm wanting me to call this number. Of course, the nature of it made me a bit worried at first. I called the number and got a deep foreign accented person who just answered "hello." I thought that was weird, but asked who it was. They said "Oh… yes, this is the Harrison Law Firm." and then they asked for my case number which I gave the number listed in the e-mail. They seemed to know some things about me so I asked more questions. When I asked for further documents proving my debt, he refused to send it to me. When I asked why, he got violent and demanded that I pay. I refused and questioned whether they were really a law firm. He then yelled at me and claimed "defamation of character" and that he would add that to the list of charges against me and said "see you in court" and hung up.
Now, there's no way a lawyer's office would ever act this way. Also, any attorney would know that he would not have a defamation of character suit by me simply questioning him over the phone. What's more… I have never had a loan with who he claimed he was representing. This is a scam… I just don't know where they got the info on me that they had. That's the worrisome part. Don't fall for this scam!
Here's the e-mail that I got:
You are hereby notified that a lawsuit has been filed against you for three serious allegations. American Credit Express is a client of ours, and we are going to be representing them in future legal proceedings.
The charges with American Credit Express pressed on you are:
1) Violation of Federal Banking Regulation
2) Collateral Check Fraud
3) Theft by Deception
The affidavit states that ________ holding a Social Security No. which is ***-**- ______ was monitored online using the e-mail address which is ______@_______ in order to solicit funds from a restitution which is owned and operated by the American Credit Express who owns and operates more than 350 online cash websites, web portals and many of the sub lenders are working for them (Cash Advance America, Cash Advance USA, Ace Cash, Speedy Cash, Cash and Go, LendUp, Cash net USA, US Cash, Ameriloan). The funds were successfully transferred into your bank account utilizing an interstate EFT which stands for electronic funds transfer.
When the creditor attempted to extract the funds back from your account as a repayment, at that time 6 EFT’s were returned back constituting worthless electronic checks. So, as of now rather than chasing you for money the creditor have simply decided to write this money as a loss, as well as declared to be stolen and they pressed charges against you.
Now the affidavit is taken by FDCPA law that means Fair Debt Collection Practices Act under Section 9 Chapter 19.
Now this means just two things for you:
1.) If you are on any state supervised probation on payroll, then you will need to intimate the officer about this case.
2.) If you have any prior convictions including but not limited to worthless check, grand theft or money laundering, so please be aware that they shall handle this case as a habitual offense as your state is zero tolerance state.
This is also to inform you that the creditor has all the rights and authorities to inform your employer about this case and what will be the results and consequences comes once this case is downloaded and executed with the judgments against you, it is because you have kept your employer’s name as a security and also as an additional security two more names were used.
Finally, you have the right to hire an attorney, if you have one or if you cannot afford one then one shall be appointed to you. But please make sure that you have someone to help you out regarding this case because once this case is downloaded and executed with judgments against you and if you found guilty under the bench of jury then you have to bear the court charges as a penalty and the Amount is $8000.00 excluding your bail charges, your attorney charges and the due amount pending on your name.
Finally, your name and Social Security Information would be reported to the three major credit bureaus of USA such as,
1.) Equifax
2.) Tran union LLC
3.) Experian
Ultimately it would be affecting your FICO scores by 85 negative points and your social security number would be black listed and you would also never be eligible for all the government benefits and entities.
According to the orders of the court house the State Investigation Department Officers will deliver all the legal documents to your current employer and that can risk your current job and once the judge opens your case for execution legally on May 15th, 2017 then these charges will be reflecting on your Credit Reports because of which it will be very difficult for you to get a new job in future.
Finally, this case is going to be downloaded in your State County Court and your Local County Sheriff department on May 15th, 2017 at 11.00 am as per your State Standard Time and after then you will be forced to resolve this case legally by facing all the legal problems and spending money on your attorney as fees, case execution charges, legal penalties, bail charges, paper development charges on the top of the due amount that you owe from your creditor that is $1149.95
If you are willing to settle it out of the court you can surely respond positively today itself. There shall not be any further correspondence via email. You can contact the number listed below.

Just received an e-mail threatening to take action if I don't respond/pay them money. It bothers me that they acquired enough information to even SEND the e-mail to me. Fortunately, it went directly to my SPAM box; I just happened to look there, which I do sometimes out of curiosity. TO HELL WITH THAT!
