Fraudulant/Threatening Collection Tactics
Date: Fri, 10/27/2006 - 21:25
The problem here is, first of all, that we did not take out a loan from Nationwide cash, and, in fact, if you go to nationwidecash.com the site says they will not grant loans to California residents, which we are. Second, I handle all the financials in our household so my husband asked Mr. Fulton to call me. He refused, said he wanted to talk to him and not his wife. When I called to talk to this Mr. Fulton, he refused to talk to me, told me my husband needed to be a man and take care of this himself. He hung up on me when I insisted that he needed to talk to me. I called back later just to find out who they were, which we weren't sure of anyway, I asked them what they did and who they worked for, he told me he couldn't release that information. So, I tried to ask again, 'can you just tell me what you do there?' he was very rude, said no and hung up the phone.
I guess I'm just wondering what the deal is with these people, is this a scam, has this happened to anyone else?

If you are sure about owing nothing to Nationwide Cash, then there is nothing to worry about. I can only think that Mr. Fulton has the wrong contact and he is trying to reach someone whose name is similar to yours.
I will call the supervisor of the company and tell about this problem. If there is any debt they say you owe, how will you pay without any documentation given by the company? The calls must stop otherwise tell them that you are contacting your attorney general for this.

Vid, you need to file a complaint with CA's AG office. When they came out with their cease and desist order against these companies, even though you never took out a loan with them, but say you did, CA AG's office ordered them to forgive the loans. So even if you did have a loan with them they aren't allowed to collect on it.

Is that any legal action against Nationwide Cash because of which they were asked to do a refund to people? Sorry, I don't know.

It is illegal for this company to be doing this, they were given a cease and desist order not to operate in the state of CA by the Ag's office. They know they can't operate there because they have it listed on their site they do not loan to CA consumers. A complaint needs to be given to the CA AG's office to notify them of the violation. That is a pretty serious offense, and they could possibly face even more fines.

Thanks so much for the reply. They're just causing so my stress for my husband and he really doesn't need to deal with that, especially not at work.

This is completely incorrect. Most of the people on this site dont owe any money, yet have ruined credit scores from companies like this.
If they know your name, place of employment, they know your SS# and have or will hit your credit report.
If these jerks are calling it is very important to get to the matter sorted out, with proof that they have removed your names from the system, and wont be selling your information to the next agency.

Guest, you are correct, that is why when my accounts were settled I demanded it in writing and so did the AGs office. It is important that when the matter is settled to have them put it in writing.

Guest, I know what you mean when you highlight my sentence. At least, I should be assured that nothing wrong will happen when I don't owe anyone. But it is sad that some company will sell my personal info for making easy money. I don't despise the fact that there should be proof of everything. When I said earlier, I didn't think to the extreme whether someone can hurt me.
