I got the same message from a courtney king as well with a mean voice mail giving me a case number as well that started with 2015 when I called back to talk to a courtney king a woman came on with the same voice that the courtney king left me, but stated her name was Meagan saying I owed this money, but was making no sense. When I said I fell for this two years ago and took care of this matter twice already, she said well I needed to contact the collection agency because they probably scammed me. When I said that, it was never a collection agency that contacted me it was people like her saying they were investigators. She just went on about how she is on the criminal side of this matter and she was going to the court at 6pm, when I know that courts aren't open that late. Then saying the judge would sign off on it on Saturday morning. Then telling me to call her back Friday night and leave a message with a reference number. Then also stated something that I can go to any bank of America and take care of this matter. That I needed to pay at least 350. It was making no sense to me at all. Go to bank of America and tell them exactly what with no documentations. I am sorry but Bank of America has nothing to do with this. You don't go to the bank to pay some payday loan debt. Needless to say this Megan lady that origionally said she was Courtney KIng was rude and not making any sense. She was threatning me with all kinds of things. Saying I will be in custody in seven to 10 days. I did call back that night and left a message that I needed her to email me a document stating what company this is from and an invoice of what I owe. So I am waiting for her to send me that information to my email before I do anything, Because like I said I got scammed twice already and they were suppose to mail me a receipt and they never did.
Lady called bout a payday loan...said they were going to lock me up and suspend my license and anything that I get from the state....said if I couldn't pay 1072 they would put a warrant out for my arrest by 5pm....said they would lock me up and I would have to pay 25000, and stay in jail for up to 60 days if I can't get out in 48 hours... Lady said her name is director laura carter.....said I could have NO CONTACT with the company she called on behalf of.
Total scam. Debt is civil, not criminal, so no one is going to be "locked up" even if they have defaulted on a loan. More info here:

— filed under: Press Release
The Internet Crime Complaint Center has received many complaints from victims of payday loan telephone collection scams. Callers claim the victim is delinquent in a payday loan and must repay the loan to avoid legal consequences. The callers purport to be representatives of the FBI, Federal Legislative Department, various law firms, or other legitimate-sounding agencies. They claim to be collecting debts for companies such as United Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Advance, U.S. Cash Net, and other Internet check-cashing services.
According to complaints received from the public, the callers have accurate data about victims, including Social Security numbers, dates of birth, addresses, employer information, bank account numbers, and the names and telephone numbers of relatives and friends. How the fraudsters obtained the personal information varies, but in some cases victims have reported they completed online applications for other loans or credit cards before the calls started.
The fraudsters relentlessly call the victim’s home, cell phone, and place of employment. They refuse to provide any details about the alleged payday loans and become abusive when questioned. The callers have threatened victims with legal actions, arrests, and, in some cases, physical violence if they do not pay. In many cases, the callers harass victims’ relatives, friends, and employers.
