A man called about owing money to Cash Partners of America. His name was Kevin. Then his manager got on the phone his name was Steve Brown that if I didn't pay $5484.00 by tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. they were sending the police out to my house. So I told them I will be glad to talk to the police about their fraudelent calls. After that he said we will see you in court. And that I better have my attorney with me. I said oh he will be there he would be glad to meet you.
This is an scam ring that has been going on for quite some time. DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT pay any money to these people. They are not real attorneys and have obtained your information from most likely a payday loan service website.
Been getting threatening voice mails from "Mike Peterson" all week about owing money, arrest, legal action, court, tattling to my employer, etc. Called back today and asked for “Mike” but got to speak with “Ryan Scott” – both men sound the same – heavy, heavy Indian accent, and asked for details, who, what, when, where, etc. and they read me my SSN which bothers me greatly, then proceeded with a long winded legal affidavit that had absolutely no details except the name Cash Partners of America relating to a pay day loan and an outstanding amount of $5484 (which is the same amount in another person’s post) on a bank account I closed 3 years ago. They have my personal email but when I asked them to send me a copy of the affidavit and charges against me they said they would not and I could look to be arrested on Monday.
Please, please, please, do not give these people any money. I used to get calls about three years ago from a “Steve Brown”, (also mentioned in another recent post) same MO, and it sounds like the exact same script and heavy accent. I think what it boils down to is someone sold my information from an on-line pay day loan application and this group is preying on people and using fear tactics (words like fraud, thief, jail, judgment, etc.) to frighten them into making payments which amounts to stealing.
It is frightening but once you think about what they’ve said, it’s actually funny. Our justice system doesn’t work the way they depict it, most payday loans cannot exceed $500 so how in the world would a $5000+ amount be due, a 1000%+ markup – not possible even if someone levied every possible fine against you. Be careful of these thieves and liars!
It started early this year when I started getting phone calls from a man named Steve Brown. He accused me of committing internet fraud which amounted to a total of $900.00. He said if I would pay him $3000.00 he could take care of the law suit for me (which I knew was a bunch of bull cause I don't do anything but surf on line). He told me that he was from the F.B.I. and I had better do what he said or he would send an assassin to my front door. He also called my place of employment and cussed out a co-worker because she would not give him any information on me or let him talk to me.
He knew the names of my mother, sister, and daughter, my social security number, and where I worked. That really upset me because I am a young widow, and live alone with my teen age daughter.
The calls stopped after awhile and have just recently started up again. He has called me twice today and it's always the same thing....I must call him back the very second I get his message or have my attorney call at once because this is extremely time sensitive. Don't disregard this message if you don't have your attorney call me back or you call me back the only thing I can do is wish you good luck as the situation unfold on you. Good bye and good luck.
My life is stressful enough without this crazy person calling and harassing me.
I got the same call from a "Mike Peterson" who speaks broken English.....saying I owe money and they are sending the police. Yes, they had my SSN as well....scary! I called back and threatened them, they were defiant! Yelling at me, interrupting me etc. I have notified the authorities here locally. They said until they actually commit a crime nothing can be done, but they were sure it was a scam. They never identified the company, but it was the same MP from these other people who are getting calls.
