I received the same disturbing call today. They mention that they are an "officer of the Federal Goverment and a warrant was going to be issued for me". Apparently, I was given a payday loan in May 2011 and when they tried to get their money back, it was returned. Funny thing is....I didn't even have this checking account in May. I printed out a bank statement just to prove to them that no such deposit of $300 was ever given to me and the man begin yelling at me. I was threated that I was going to jail if I did'nt comply. He then went on saying if I pay today with a credit card, I would not have to appear in court. After arguing with this non-English speaking person, I called the police and reported them. This is a complete scam and I'm sure many people out there fall for it, but I'm not one of them!!!
Harrassing calls about some court issue, threatening to get a warrant put out for my arrest if I don't "settle" with them outside of court. I've done nothing even remotely close to make this even a possibility.
Someone that was foreign and spoke terrible english called me at my work and on my cell phone saying that I took out a payday loan with CashnetUSA in Dec 2010 and that I never paid it back and am being sued. I NEVER took out a loan with them and they would not give me any additional info. I asked to speak with a supervisor and they hung up on me...TOTAL SCAM!!!!
I had a phone call today and a few weeks ago from 213-293-6072 talking about a warrant and they are cops and this and that. Tell them to go to hell and block them from calling you! There is no one in the world that would send you to JAIL over a payday loan! Collections yes! Jail arrest NO!
I keep receiving calls from 213-293-6072. The man has a foreign accent and constantly is calling me at work. I just received a call from him and first he stated he was the Sheriff calling. Then he called back asking for me. I told him that if this is a personal call please call my number at home because if you have my work number then I know you have my home number. Then he demanded to speak to my boss. I told him if this is a personal matter you do not need to speak to my boss. This is between me and you. He never told me what company he was calling for so I am sure this is a third party call. He kept calling (about 4 or 5 times back to back) then when I picked up the phone again I told him to stop 'f---) harassing me at work. He then called me a 'm-----f----)'. This is totally uncalled for and I need to find out what company he is calling from. Please assist me in this matter. I want these calls to stop. Thank you
