payday scam

Hi,

This is true that payday loans are very difficult to be re payed as they are accompanied with a huge amount of interest charges which can be even much more than the actual amount borrowed.Payday loans are truly a nightmare,so even if it is required to get another loan to pay the payday loan off you should as well do that!!!!!!!!!!!

rebecca should get counseling immediately.how can you come on a thread about a scam in INDIA,and honestly state someone should get a loan to pay not only this scam,but any other pdl.ridiculous at best.please rebecca,you're giving me a migraine.

i have been called since march 2010 from these hindu guys from california saying im being arrested for cyber theft told me they were the legal dept of easy cash usa, i told him he wwas scam... i have his direct line 8187463405 canoga park cali, unlisted , any reputable company would list their name, and come on you indian fucks with names like charles hall and dan wilson they need to give real names like leiphambeeefrreee like the rest of them.... i have reported to FTC BBB Privacy protection and the attorney general of california..... dont believe them they are just trying to steal ur money....

I had the same calls coming into my house and my office.This guy called me with a heavy indian accent.First he called my house and ask my husband to speak to me.Of course my husband ask who the f--- is this.He ask my husband not to curse at him and that I was going to jail for taking out a payday loan that I truly didn't take out.These dick head called me in my office with the same bu---sh-t.And I mention to him if you call my office again I will contact the police.Well I did receive anymore calls in my office.But when I got home these moth--f--kers called again and once again my husband had a few choice words for them.Don't see any money this is a scam.

they used to call me in work, too.. i mainly filed my police report to prove to my boss that this really is a scam.. never send money and just try to avoid their calls.

Has anyone got a loan from them?

I think it is those creeps from Cash Today Unlimited.

Has anyone "got a loan" from whom?

I have experienced the same.. the person is a male with a thick Indian accent, stated that I owe money, they have my name, work & cell number, emergency contact person, and ss# and threaten every week that the cops will be at my door because i owe a defaulted payday loan.. i have blocked my number on do not call list.. but i am still getting harassed. at this point im about to change my numbers. i also notified the credit agencies of a possible concern since they have my ss#

The banks will help you if you can show proof that these companies are scamming your accounts. I know because I went thru the same thing. I took out a couple of online payday loans last Christmas. Small $200.00 loans. After they were paid off they continued to take money from my accounts for 2 months but they were doing double withdrawals draining my account. I had already payed $600.00 on a $200,00 loan and now they say I owe $348.00 on one of them! I printed my statments and took them to the bank and closed my checking account so they couldn't withdraw anymore and opened a new account. It's best to open a new account at another bank first before you close your account because your old acct stays open for a few weeks and these payday loan people will change the amounts they are trying to claim and it could go thru but if the bank puts a hold on it for you you won't have to pay the return fee. The bank did credit me some of my money back. It took a couple of days to get it straight but now they cannot get into my acct. But if you go to the bank and explain things to them and even direct them to the Ripoff.com website, they will help you.

i agree, most banks are willing to help you. they actually should help as ach can be revoked anytime but some banks are more difficult to work with than others.

I got a call from these people! The guy who called me, like everyone else, had a thick Indian accent but called himself Roy Rogers!! LOL! He threatened to sent the sherriff after me if I don't send him $600; however, I told him to go f*** himself and the horse he rode in on!

I got loans through collect500 and upfrontpayday loans....they were legit..i made sure to get statements from them stating i paid them off...This group is an international deal..they are even getting military families over seas..I have filed 2 police reports and through the FTC. No way of tracking phone numbers or locations...the location I got for 516-426-7692 was a parkling lot in Floral park New York...if they call me again..they will know i know that they really are scammers.

These people that I can not understand have just started callling me. My husband
happened to answer the phone and he is livid. They started threatening him.

They keep calling for $300.00 some odd dollars but will not give us proof that I
took out a short term loan. They said that that is agains the law to send us
proof but we are to either western union the money or out of a debit card.
I am not that stupid to give them anything unless I have proof. They call and
say they are officer so and so and the police are going to come to my door and
put me behind bars. I am going to call the better business bureau, the police,
the FBI and anyone else I can think of. This has got to stop!!!!!! If there is
anyone else out there that have received calls from these jerks please do
something about it.

If anyone can stop these people.....PLEASE DO! We called to police in our town
and they said that these people have not committed a crime so they can't do
anything. Extortion isn't a crime. They called me back and left vulger messages.
My husband is soooooo livid that he is working with the local tv station and they
seem to be very interested. They have had numberous reports of this scam.
Maybe if everyone contacted their local tv station we may at least be able to
get the word out. We have tried everything else to shut these guys down but
have come to a dead end (Except the tv station) DO NOT GIVE THESE GUYS
MONEY!!!!!!! That can't even provide proof!!!! That's all I asked them for and
I would have paid the $375.00 that they want from me. They are NASTY!!!!

I started getting these phone calls about 3 months ago, same stuff, they have the last 4 of my ss#, and my bank name but will not send anything in writing to me. If you ever bought anything on-line, then your bank name and other information is not hard to get. I spoke with an attorney about this and was advised that I should ignore the calls. Thankfully they do not have my work number so I just ignore him, he has called here as Frank Hilton, Alex Dawson, these guys are crooks.
