These people are fraud. Theyre calling hard working individuals and threatening to have them arrested if they don't pay off these bogus loans. they aren't rdebt collectors they are scam artists
Just got two harassing phone stating that I would be arrested. I asked them what is this about and they said, their is a lawsuit against you for fraud. You will be arrested Monday morning and then you will lose you job. I asked them what is their bar number and they hung up on me.
Just got a call from these people saying I have a payday loan and I haven't paid it ack and there are three counts against me and I am going to be arrested. The thing is I did borrrow money from a payday loan place, but my payment is not due until 9/17. I asked her all sorts of questions, she said her name was MIchelle Jones, I said You sure don't speak very good English, where are you from. She answered Montgomery Alabama. I told her she didn't sound like anybody from Alabama that I had every heard talk. Any way I asked her for her address and bosses name. Shje gave me an address like 1603 Shady or Sully Road, when I tried to spell it back to her she said yes to whatever I spelled. She told me her bosses name was Mr. Randall Baker and he was a lawyer. She said if I didn't pay money now, the police would come. Anyway I hung up on her and called the number back and it was so nosiy where they were I couldn't here, but after I told them my name, they put me through to Michelle again. She told me not to call their anymore, after I told her this was a scam, I said, well then don't call me either.
Hi all,
I received a call today and I was told the exact same thing. That I owed on a payday loan and the person I spoke with I could not understand a word she said. Her english was horrible. She just kept asking me if I wanted to resolve this today or did I want to go to jail on Monday. I repeatedly asked her what this was in reference to because I could not understand what she was saying. I then asked to speak to someone who spoke better english and she said I could only speak to her. Then I asked to speak to the lawyer and I was told that they did not speak to anyone. So I told her that if I could not speak to a lawyer then I guess I will go to jail on Monday, and I hung up on her. I am so glad I googled the number and I am not the only one this has happened to.
My mom has gotten a lot of calls from these people. The one she got today was actually kind of funny. She told them she was going to contact the Attorney General in Iowa and the woman on the phone, who called herself Michelle Jones, said that she knows our Attorney General and that she has drinks with him every night. I could not help but laugh when she said that. Then my mom asked her what his name is and she made up some random name. These people are horrible. It sounds like none of us has fallen for it, but there are probably people who have. I hope people report them to their Attorney General in their state. These people need to be put out of business.
