Steven Brown who says he represents Ace Cash Express keeps calling my job from this number even though he has admitted that it is illegal for him to do so. He will scream at you and threaten to garnish your wages, and sue you for everything you have.
I asked for his title and he said he was Supervisor, I asked of what and he said Collections, this did not sound very convincing
These vultures specialize in pay day loans.
This type of loans is the most predatory type
of loan, whose victims are people in difficult
circumstances, such as those who had a death
in their families, or who have a sick relative.
The annual interest reates are huge, so huge
that they often are considered usury.

Someone named Steve Brown. Called my office from 860-616-5059, asked to speak to HR to verify employment but wouldn't tell me who it was he was verifying until I identified myself. I told him I was HR, did not identify myself and refused to verify anything until I knew what I was verifying it for. (Too many scams these days) He got very nasty and hung up on me. He may be some sort of collection agency because a Google search said he was calling others for that sort of thing. I would have happily verified employment if he had 1)Been nicer, 2) Given the info I asked for and 3) not hung up on me.
Also, due to the google search, I found that he uses this number as well and called last week. so I posted this twice.
When he called from this 716 number, he was instructed that the person he was looking for was not allowed to received personal calls at work. As far as I'm concerned, that was pretty good verification of employment right there and this most recent phone call was a way in and an illegal one at that.
