I just received a phone call from "HARRINGTON LAW FIRM" , and the person who called me identified himself as " MAX HENDRICKS" senior lawyer at the firm.He sounded very suspicious, and he had a very heavy accent, and it sounded like he was calling from over seas. He threatened me that I will be sued by his client " USA LOAN CASH ADVANCE" for commiting fraud against the company, by taking a payday loan in the amount of $300.00 and never paid it back, therefore I am being sued in California in the amount of $542.32.I told him that this is a scam and I also asked him for the next three things, wich he provided:
1. Name of the attorney sueing me: wich he provided his name " MAX HENDRICKS"
2. The bar association number : he provided number "9370593"
3. The town where he is registered in: he did not want to provide it to me and all he gave me was Texas and California, therefore he was not specific.
I called him back after I verified with BBB( I could not locate this Max Hendricks, nor Harrington Law Firm), and I told him he was a fraud and that I will take action against this scam and report him to the District's Attorney's office, and also I will have my attorney call him and take action against him.
I requested from him all the legal documentation that he has against me, and he could not provide it.
I told him that I will not stop until something is done against him and all others who are involved in this scam.
I already spoke to my lawyer about this and we will see what happens next.
If there are others out there dealing with the same issue, do not give in, they cannot do anything against you in court, and they know that, all they are trying to do is scare and intimidate you.
Do not give them any money, do not let them win.
I received the same phone call from this individual who REFUSED to tell me who his client was and he began to ask for my information when he called me. I then told him that I would be calling law enforcement on him if he continued to call me and that I was not going to provide him with any of my information because I was no fool. How do these people get away with this?! BEWARE!!!! DO NOT LET THIS INDIVIDUAL CONTINUE TO HARASS YOU!!!!
