Got a call from a Terrence Johnson claiming they were going to file a fraud suit against me for a 2010 transaction. The company name he gave was "SSM GROUP" - I never heard of these people. I kept asking him to mail me proof that this transaction actually took place and he said that he couldn't because everything is "paperless"! He had my email address so I asked him to send them that way, and he said all he could send was a statement from his firm "BECKLY MCCORMICK AND SCHMITT" stating the original company and amount owed.
When I got that "statement", it had no address; the phone numbers 213-493-9800 and 866-596-1702 (the number he was calling from and the return number he gave me); an email address of
[email protected] (notice the spelling of beckly - they can't even match their "statement" which has BECKLY MCCORMICK & SCHMITT!!
I tried searching for this company and can only find a seafood market that is even close! SSM Group shows to be a no longer in existence pay day loan company that has many charges against it for illegal practices. The phone numbers cannot be confirmed. SCAM?????
