Man calling himself "Eric Watson" with a heavy foreign accent phoned the number listed on CashAdvanceUSA payday loan application as my WORK number from 215-758-9869. He said that a case had been filed against me due to a loan that I "never bothered to pay back" and threatened that a warrant would be filed with my local police department and that I could "prove myself in court" after I blatantly told him his allegations were crap. 1: I wasn't even approved for the loan 2.I didn't receive ANY funds to be responsible for any repayment 3.I called my prepaid debit card company just to be sure that there were no transactions or activity on my account, and of course, no such "loan" was ever received to that associated account through the routing and checking number. 4. He called THE NEXT DAY after entered my information on the web form. No written notification was received, not even an email. What even is the purpose behind these calls?? What is this guy hoping to accomplish? An "out of court" settlement to his exclusive benefit perhaps?? I'm going to report this to the appropriate authorities, because at the very least he succeeded in getting my feathers ruffled when I WAS in a pretty good mood before he called with his bull. I'm in a much better mood now though :) It seemed fishy and after hitting this forum the fishy-ness is confirmed. I would love to see someone like this rot behind bars for extortion :)
i recieved a call from someone who said they worked for a law firm, and that i was being sued for non payment of a payday loan. well i though this was strange because i never received a payday loan. he had all of my information my place of work, my bank name, the last 4 digits of my social. he tells me i would receive papers to go to court and i should have 6 to 8 thousand dollars for court cost and attorney fees.
i've been getting these calls about 5 times a day for a couple of weeks now. If i hang up on them they call right back. They say that they're from some law firm and that i'm being sued i keep telling them to serve me papers and they just tell me that they are going to have me arrested within 2 hours. I've never seen anything. If i ask them who i'm being sued by they tell me that they have to read me some affadivit and when i decline they get mad. They have my address and the last 4 of my s.s. I'm trying to figure out what they want but i don't want to give them any more information either. I'm trying to figure out how to get them to stop calling me
