My calls keep coming from oracle Financial Group the number I have is 716 242 3494 and the payday loan they say I received was deposited in a bank account has been closed for several years
This company called and said they legal papers were given to them for myself and they would be filing suit if I did not call them back. They said they were going to send an arbitrator to my home or work to serve me. They would not give me any information about them. Just an address of 1885 Harlem Rd. Suite 200 , Cheektowago, NY 14242. I told them they were a scammer and to take my number off the list or I would report them. The other number that they called from was 844-215-0812.
They contacted me a number of times and told me I owed Cutter Group $300 originally and now owe them $900 and have to pay or they will be charging me with fraud in my county court. They had info on me any payday application would ask for and I'm sure they can obtain. I asked them to send me copies of the original loan docs and they said they would try to locate it and it would take 48 hours. They wanted to only "settle" for $450 but I told them no way that amount and she said "well then there is no reason for me to even order the original paper work goodbye". I'm sure because there is no original paperwork to send. And this cutter group they refer to seems to be bad news as well.
Total scam. Typical too. They are just trying to scare you. Fraud charges would be filed by the District Attorney, if there were any. Debt collectors have no influence on the criminal justice system and have no powers of arrest or persecution. This is typical of the kitchen table debt collectors. Small town run-down New York debt scammers.
Somehow a civil debt is magically transformed into a criminal charge. Absolute clap--trap. Best bet is to ignore their calls. Block them. Don't give them any information.

* File a complaint with the FBI on their Internet Crime webpage http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx
* File a complaint with the Attorney General for the state you live in
The more information and complaints there are, the better the chance of getting these criminals to stop (or at least reduce the frequency). [abstracted from another site]
They continue to bother you, tell them you are going to the police to make a complaint of extortion.
