Hi everyone! I just wanted to update you all on this situation.
Well, they still call my job but as I said before, I have chosen to ignore them. I have also reported them to my AG office.
However, I am 99% sure that this is some sort of scam. I did a search for the phone number of Victor Lynch on 800notes and there are FIVE PAGES full of complaints from people who have gotten the same exact calls as me. Many of them have said that they have also been threatened with legal action for old loans that were paid off.
I also came across a very interesting article about a scam going around where these scum bags can somehow get your old payday loan information and threaten you with jail time if you don't pay. I'm not sure if I can paste links here but you can go to ABC's website and search for Fake Debt Collectors Terrify Consumers. This is EXACTLY what I was going through and lots of other people as well.
So, while they still call me at work, at least I know for sure that this is indeed a scam and hopefully these idiots will be stopped.
It just angers me as to how far these people will go to prey on those who are/were in desperate financial need!
Thanks again for all of your help!
