THIS IS A SCAM...It appears that if you return the call, they now can claim YOU called them as opposed to they calling you. (soliciting). DO NOT CALL BACK... If you accept the call as fact, then they can believe threatening, harrassing, and any other tactics are legitimate. It is a great way to make money. A covert operation has been on going in to this practice. This is an enormous thorn. It is causing sleep deprivity along with pure upset to normal hard working Americans. DO NOT ACCEPT THE CALL. DO NOT ACCEPT THE CALL. DO NOT ACCEPT THE CALL. DO NOT ACCEPT THE CALL.

Yes I received this same e-mail yesterday 12-2-10 almost word for word with the exception that the loan company is listed as "Cash Now" with the telephone extension as 2016 with the person's name as "Carole Williams" from the same Texas addreess. I was about to call them and see what is going on when I discovered your notice from the e-mail. I had changed my telephone number but they still have my e-mail address & all my pertinent information. Thank you so very much for your insight and advise. I definitely will not call the telephone number or make any attempts to answer them.
