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.
I have received calls from this company for the last 2 days asking for my daughter. Each day I have requested the removal of my phone number. I was told my number was removed because it did not come up in their system. When I inquired as to how I just received another call from the company, the 'representative' did not know. I was rushed off the phone after I asked that question.
I received a message yesterday but it sounded a little fishy since the said "in your county" without actually saying my county's name and how the kept saying my whole name instead of Mr. M****** or Chris. It looks like my suspicions were correct. Thanks for the info.
