I was thinking of getting some extra money to pay bills. So on the internet I tried several loan options. Changed my mind about doing them. So then my e-mail box got flooded with payday loan places telling me I was approved for a payday loan. I cancelled all of them when they came in. Then started getting phone calls from these people saying I had cashed a check of theirs for 350.00. They told me it was deposited in my checking account, but I have no accounts with anybanks in Winthrop Harbor or anywhere in Ill. or Wisc. bank. Then said they had my drivers license number, which they read to me and it was not a close match. So they said it was possible someone had stolen my identity,
So not they threatening me and harrassing me. 30 40 calls at least and they keep calling me saying they are sueing me, and this is causing me great stress. I have explained it so many times I don't know what esle to do, hell I should sue them. I f you could help me in any way, I would soooo happy. Thank you so much for reading this. Arcana
I have recieved calls from this number as well, but if you listen well enough there is plenty of noise in the background with other people with these thick indian accents telling folks the same scam as they are telling you. This is a scam, some how by internet either you did do a payday loan withas your information was sold to them for them to get money from you or you did some kind of internet service and they captured some of your infomation like the last four digits of your ss or your name and address either way this is how these fools get your information. However, don't give them no more than they already have, blow a wistle in their ear or better yet challenge them. Ask them for a debt validation letter if you think you may owe a debt, Ask them for the actually debtor you owe money to, Tell them you want to talk with them directly. These options are only if you choose to speak with them. Otherwise hang up. Some of us maynot even owe debts and these fools call just because they found your name out there somewhere. As I said don't make any deals with them and don't give them no more information about you or anyone else. This is a scam beleive me it is. I was told that the last call by them was the last call but they keep on calling, I'm at the point where I don't even answer any calls whereas I don't recongize the numbers. If its important they can leave a message and I choose to pick it up. Always, remember you also have the option of reporting to Attorney General's office, Federal Trade Commission, and any attorney you may retain for the sole purpose of just letting them know whats going on and ask for their opinion. (I've been there done that with these type of people). The shame part is an elderly person might take it seriously and actually come out their pocket to pay. These people have you sending money to cananda or somewhere out the United States and by International money gram. I seen it happen to close friends of mine until they got wise to the scam. Take care, and be blessed.
What did the attorney generals office say? This same thing has been happening to me, and they threatend to rape and kill my mother and daughter! I want them found and done with what ever anyone chooses to do with them.
Thanks
