Default United Pay Services

I ashamedly so, sent a payment into United pay services after "Daniel" made a threat on my family. (I wish I had that recorded) I have kept several other messages that he and fellow associate "Trevor" have left on my phone. These people really make me sick...

I do have several loans that I need to pay; but how do we go about finding out who is legit and who isn't? the line between them is VERY blurred.

Thanks for all your encouragement and advice!

Send these crooks a cease and desist letter, coupled with a debt validation letter. That will put the power in your hands. I have some sample letters on my site.

Everyone needs to know that you do not pay money without the collection company first validating the debt. This means, if someone calls you, makes threats, you are being violated per law. You should always send them a letter of validation, via certified mail. If you send them one, and you never recieve a response, you will know that they are crooks.

Default has anyone heard of a John Strictland

has anyone heard of a John Strictland from this number 877-281-2220 - ext. 310. I just received two phone calls from this man but the number came up on my caller id as 000 000 0000. He said that he needed to hear from the attorney representing me. Is this how they start off their harrassment by saying they need to hear from your attorney representing you?

Yes it is! You can either call them back or wait for them to call you but DO NOT BUY INTO THEIR THREATS...You are not going to Jail and if they tell you they are downloading you to your county..Tell them that if they are sending info about you to someone its called uploading...

Default money scare

Hi. I googled the 800 number that was given me from Mark W. Watson and Associates and it brought me to this sight. He said I had a case against me for tampering with federal funds. Unfortunately, I do admit that I did use a payday loan agency but paid back MORE than I should have. Is this legit or a scam? The prior office used Jackson and Phillips. This is very discouraging and ridiculous. After reading some of the replies posted; it is a sad situation because we are just good hard working people.This guy has called me 4 times already leaving messages to call IMMEDIATELY! What should I do?
thanks.

Default money scams

When they call you; the 000-000-0000 displays on the screen and when they call my cell it rings differently than my "set" ring. Guess I will sit back and wait. Thanks for all the input.

Default payton and hallburg ( Bass and Associates)

These People are something. They called myself today on the phone. While talking to one Regina Payton, she stated the she was with payton and hallburg. and said that if I didnt cone up with $800.00 bucks in the next hour i would be picked up for wire fraud, and a long list of other things. While talking to her, I went looking on the internet and couldn't find anyting. So I searched the phone number that she gave me and it sent me here. After looking at the information that she gave me. And looking at the the posts on this site I find that this is the same company. So Keep up the good work

Macdaddy,
I sure hope you are not lumping that collection agency with this board as being one and the same because that is dead wrong!

They are just trying to scare you to get their money!@You are not going to jail, you did not commit check fraud or internet fraud and as a matter of fact by them telling you this they are the ones commiting fraud...You need to file a complaint with the FL AG on this company as they are being investigated by numerous government agencies! Do not send them any money because chances are, the people they claim they are collecting for will never get it and in a few months someone else from a different company will be calling you on the same debt. YOU WILL NOT GO TO JAIL!
