They called saying they are going to have me a arrested for a pay day loan through cash net.they are threating my friend saying they are goin to put a hold on her social security number bc she consigned for the pay day loan which she didn't.and they want me to pay 483.00 to them or I am bein arrested.
Same thing here... of which I have not taken one out since 2010, and was included in a bk. I provided my Attorney information... they are crooks, theives.
Received a phone call at my job from an Amy Fox saying that she was with Check Systems and that a judgement had been placed against me for activity on a closed bank account associated with a pay day loan from October 2011.
I had to close my bank account then because of fraudulent activity and I thought that this was associated with this but the more I listened, the more I realized it was a scam. She was asking questions that she would have known the answers to if she was calling from a legit collections agency. She started talking about bing in contact with the Allegheny County Sheriff and that they would come to my job between 1 and 3 pm to serve and/or arrest me.
Just then, my cell phone rings with a 412 number - come to find out it was them spoof calling me from the Sherrif's department - only way I knew it was a joke is because I could hear the same radio music playing in the background on both lines! DUMB!
Please be aware that these are scammers and they are becoming more and more sophisticated because of advanced technology. They can change the number that shows up on a caller ID and/or pose as a law enforcement agency.
DO NOT give any personal information on the phone. Ask them for things like the name of the DA in charge of your case, your docket number - all of which is public record information. They will become irate and hang up, because they know you know they are a scam.
Write down the number that shows up on your caller ID and google it immediately! You will know its a scam.
