He told me he was a lawyer but he was asking for a debt card or a credit card and was trying to scare me with the law and court about a pay day loan I got almost a year ago and could not pay back just been having a hard time
Since he claims to be a lawyer (my guess is that he isn't a lawyer, so you should ask him what state(s) he is registered in and his BAR numbers for that state(s)), and since he talked to you he should know that he must do this next:
Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes. The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.
You should then do this:
You need to send them a certified, return receipt debt validation, cease and desist calling, or "not me" letter (think of it as the best $6.47 you ever invested). Also send it first class mail in case no one will sign for it. Make a notation of that fact at the bottom of the letter. You also need to report them to the proper agencies to which I have provided links to. Then you need to go out and get a consumer lawyer to sue them on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket) and let them pay you for the harassment. If everyone did these three things, these crooks would be bankrupt and we would all be the richer for it. Use these web sites to find an attorney in your state that will probably take the case on a contingency basis (no money out of your pocket up front): http://www.consumeradvocates.org/

To whom it may concern:
Perhaps paying your bills by the payment due date is the way to prevent unwanted phone calls, when someone out there in this world today is reaching out to try assisting someone the low blow in todays world. Making an attempt is better than no attempt at all.
