I got a call from them today. They have all my information as well, any advice on what i should do next? (definitely glad I did not send them the information)
I just got a call from them saying I had a loan from Payday YES - which I don't and they wanted me to send them $450 dollars.
they say they are Simmons, Smithg & Associates.
I told them to send me a copy of an original loan document and proof of deposit or do not call me again as this was a fraudelent claim and any further attempts to contact me would be harrasment and I would file a police report.
Will be reporting to Attorney Generals Office today.
I represent a reputable payday loan consolidation company. Excite Financial, out of New Milford, CT. If you have payday loans, please call us so we can give you a free quote, and help you out of debt.
I have attempted to call this firm, and they are absolutely a scam! DO NOT give them any account information, western union, pre-paid credit card, or other means of payment.
Also, beware of the creditors that call you with foreign accents. Usually they say that they are from a law office. They will be very vague, and not have the name of your actual payday loan companies.
There is NO debtors prison in the US.
They are NOT sending the Police to your workplace, home, etc..
Call me if you have any questions! 1 800 603-1698 x7009
The called me and left a message saying they were calling regarding a case that came across her desk. I called back to see what the case was and she said I owe 700$ on a bank loan. And I asked which company I took a loan from she said they have sold the company to 4 different companies and that she needs a bank statement for proof that i didnt take a loan out of the bank. Ive already been called by a scammer once before so as soon as i got on the phone with her i knew that it was another scam.
I get a call from Simmons Smith and Associates... They knew the name of my bank and the last 4 digits of my account number. They said I got loan from My Cash Now. com for $450 and they are attempting to collect the debt or I could be garnished/ sued..They knew where I worked and everything.... I dont knew nothing about My cash now... they requested my bank statments back to January... I felt uncomfortable giving them futher information so I googled MyCashNow and they said they didnt have any of my information on file and they believe its fraud. When I called Simmons Smith and Associates back they lady started getting an attitude with me.. I told her that before I sent her anything, I will need somthing in writing. I told she called me and I don't know MyCashNow, neither do I know them. So I will need proof. She asked if I wanted to speak with a supervisor.. I said yes.. and I was put on hold for over 10 minutes... They will have to just atake me to court. I have the proof with my bank that I didnt ever get a deposit from MyCashNow.... smh..... as I'm thinking about it.. even if you send them your bank statement and remove your account information they may look to see if you have had any other payday loans and use bogus numbers to try and get money from you.
