Robert James 888-901-0007

anyone else ever dealt with him or these people?

they like to use intimidation tactics to get money out of people...They are not "downloading" you and you will not be arrested...I would go ahead and file a complaint against them with your AG

You can bet your bottom dollar that I am filing another complaint! He wasn't real happy when I informed him that I use to work for the County Attorney and that he was lying. Trust me, they don't scare me.

Where was the loan from Dixie?

I honestly do not know who the PDL company allegedly was, it has been so long ago since I dealt with any of this. I contacted each PDL that I had and paid them the proper amount that they were owed according to the laws of NC. Do they really think that we are that stupid! Everyone knows that you can't "download" a warrant! He is the stupid one.

Not to mention that when you are sending someone information you upload it not download it....

LOL! Good Point! I guess we should all be aware that these thieves are hiding in the bushes even after we settle the debt with the AG's help. However, I would like to know if anyone else has ever heard of him before.

Well about a year ago I got a nasty call saying I was going to be downloaded too....I was crying so bad at work it made me sick. I was told to come up with X amount of money as well. I never paid them because my employer told me what they were doing was wrong. I wised up found this board and I'm so glad I did. You mentioned something about US National Bank- last month I got a call from an Alex Divine saying that had committed fraud/ asked if I had ever been on probation/ or arrested? When I asked what the amount was he told me that " they dont want your money"! I'm like then why are you calling me....he hung up on me. I filed complaints.

So that is the latest tactic! I was asked the same thing and told that if i was on probabtion I would need to contact my officer! Good grief! I think next time I will tell asked the person what city/state they are calling from and tell them that I am on probation for murder! Then of course follow up with calling them ugly names.

One more funny thing... he offered to quote me the law... when I asked NC Law? he said no law in the state you took money from... I said why do I care about that... I live in NC.

I asked for Validation and got no where........

These companies are just so slimey! I was lucky enough that I found this site BEFORE I had those calls so I was prepared otherwise I probably would have just died!

White Collars??? What kind of name is that???

I wonder if they use Clorox Bleach for those "white collars"?

the sounds like the work of ellis crosby.. who did robert james say where hes from or is it just another dba there using now

He only said that he was from White Collars. He couldn't even give me any information on who the other party is. I have no idea what he is talking about. However.... I did not go to jail this weekend!

I will ask for a letter of validation if he calls again.

Yes, do that!

i just got a call from this robert james today. Same story!!!! he told me he was in an office in our county and I asked him where. He then got nasty and hung up. I called him back like six times. He hung up on me each time. I am filing a complaint with the attorney general tomorrow

Yes, you need to file the complaint. LOL you know if this was legit, he would of told you the name of the office and where....he also would not of hung up on you..good for you for calling him back!

I have a friend who is an attorney. I just spoke with her and she is going to call him tomorrow for me. SHe is going to let me be in her office when she calls. I can hardly wait!

He told me that he was from the white collar crime division in my county. There is no white collar crime division in my county. He then told me since I interrupted him that I could just wait to be arrested, What a slime ball!

I am also in NC and when I did my stuff I made sure that they knew that they were doing business in NC. I filled out an application and then I was getting calls from several people, so that would be them calling me in NC, they made the loan to me IN NC, they took money from my account that was in NC, etc, so.... These people are dirt, actually lower than dirt!! They will try everything in the book and think they are above the law, in NC! :roll:

I called Mr James today and informed him that he could just wait to be arrested. I told him that it was illegal to call me and threaten me with arrest and to impersonate a person of authority. He listened and then promptly humg up. Creep!

good for you loggy!

LOL! I love it.. .you told him that he could wait to go to be arrested. I have already filed my complaint with the AG... hope everyone else has as well.

Loggy... please let us know what happens when your friend calls.

I am curious as well....

Yes I told him that since he was using illegal debt collection practices that he was the one to need an attorney. I then told him, that he better wait to be arrested. I talked to him on speaker phone, just as he talked to me when he called. My friend the attorney is going to call him tommorow. She is one of the best attorneys that I know. She will shake him down good. She hates slime balls! I have filed my complaint and I hope that they shut this idiot down, so that he does not continue to upset good people who just happen to have financial issues.

good for you loggy!

Loggy... you are one my heros! And we all thank you for taking a stand.

I just got a call from there while at lunch, when I called back got no where.........What company actually is this?

This number is from CashNetUSA. At least that is the number that has been calling me.

Sorry, I got the numbers mixed up. This number doesn't belong to CashNetUsa. 888-801-9078 is CashNetUsa. Sorry. :(

oh my gosh. i cannot belive that I found this site. I today just got a call from Robert James, telling me the same story that he has told to all of you. it made me so emotional initally that i was stressing out. i am 4 months pregnant and this raised my stress level. i was so scared. i called my mom and my sister crying telling them i need this money. i had to ask my employer for an advance on my next paycheck etc. when i was not able to come up with the money my employer told me that this was not legit, so i searched his number and sure enough it came up with this website and when i read all the postings, i was sick to my stomach. i thought i owed this money and i stressed my parents out and sister out all to find out this is a scam. i did call my states attorney and they are sending me the paperwork to file the complaint. i have printed out this forums to send with the complaint. i am so thankful that this site was here, i think i would of had to owe some friends and my parents money if i had sent this money he had told me i owed. thanks again.

Today when I got the call I talked to the receptionist that was answering the phone and she said that the woman from this number wouldnt give her a name or the name of the business...she told me that the woman on the phone said that I was a "prime suspect"?

"Prime Suspect" LOL! I guess you will have someone from CSI with glasses and blacklights at your house next! Or better yet, they will probably threaten us with lethal injection.

Creative... don't worry about this guy, he is a fake. You take care of the beautiful baby you are carrying.

dixie,
thank you for the piece of mind that this guy is a fake. i had my fiance call the number and it would go to voicemail, he thinks that this guy has caller id and would answer only for me. i did call the guy back and i got voicemail and left him a bad message. i am waiting for my paperwork from the AG to send in along with the forum pages as evidence.

Dixie- I called that number today and got a recording what did you get or your fiance

when my fiance called the number he got a voicemail. he thinks that the guy was not going to pick up cause he had caller id. i called the number later in the afternoon yesterday and got a voicemail. the guy has called back but not left a voicemail. i just cant wait to fill out the complaint paperwork with the AG. i am so thankful that i did not send the money.

i just got a call from him. buut i have no idea why. thank god i found this site!

i spoke with robert james on friday and he refused to tell me the company that he works for. i was calling on behalf of a client who was told that she was going to be put in jail if she didn't money gram money by 4:00. i want to file a complaint and an fdcpa action. in order to do that i need to know who i am going to sue. could i get some help?

Yesterday at 12:30pm, I received a call to notify me that charges were being filed against me in 1.5 hours. James stated that he was a Detective with the US National Bank Financial Crimes Division and that I was going to be charged with Collateral Check Fraud, Theft by Deceipt and another charge that noone that I have talked to knows what it is. An internet search for US National Bank produced nothing. Threatening the criminal charges is against the law according to the Fair Debt Collections Act. I do not know where he found my personal info but my bank is on alert and a fraud alert has been placed with all Credit Reporting Agencies.

I have just learned about this site after i had already been taken by this company.. And of course now this number is no longer in service :oops:

I had a threat from mr James 888-901-0007 . I was soooo scared I was going to jail(I have had payday advances, I didn' know they were not paid)I as stupid and send him money 725.00 and 350.00. I think I was scammed out of money . now the number is disconnected. What can I do
