does united federal bank exist

There is no such place as United Federal Bank. It is a very illegal collection tactic.

It is becoming a well known illegal collection tactic!

I do not know how these people think they can continue this and avoid prosecution! They will eventually be brought down. I would be very surprised if they are not already under investigation by the Feds.

They are under investigation with the FBI in Richmond VA. I myself made the complaint to them, for the United Federal Bank kept calling me at work threating to arrest me. They had some of my contact info correct and some wrong. They had my social security number so that is why I contacted the FBI.

I saw this posting about United Federal Bank.
I was left a message at my place of employment . They threatened that if I did not resolve by 11:30 am they were filing criminal charges for grand theft, check fraud and that if I didn't want someone coming to my door I better do something. Since I did not recognize who they were I asked for written documentation or e-mail of the debt. They claimed they e-mailed me reminder notices in 2005 and I had my chance. (They verified the wrong e-mail address) then they contradicted themsaelves and said they were an internet payday loan and couldn't send written documentation but they that they had the papers in hand. I told them I was not about to send money until they could provide written proof since I had paid off my loan. They ignored me passed me on to the "Supervisor" who said he was a "criminal dept. officer" and working with restitution. I informed them I would be contacting a lawyer bur they refused to give any contact info. and said he did not need to call that UFB would be calling me. They said I did not have to pay because they were going to get there money anyways. I spoke with three different reps all with heavy foreign accents. Is this possibly overseas - even if the area code they called from was in Georgia? Is there anywhere I can turn to?

They are Bull Sh***ng you!!! Do not send them any money!!
Tell them to kiss off!!

I just received a call from them today too. Very heavy accents, saying that by 3:30 they were going to send the paperwork to my county court to press charges for a debt from 2005. I asked them what the original creditor was and I have no recollection of ever working with company they gave me. I told them that in order for me to send any money I would need documentation of this debt by fax or mail. Once I said that they hung up. So I called back again and told them that they would not be hearing form an attorney instead they would be hearing from the police. The number they gave me is 678-954-0520 and I am trying to get in touch with the chamber or commerce for that area code, even though they are probably not there.

Great job standing up to them Greeneyes6945. Don't let them intimidate you.

Weren't these the same people that threatened to "download" someone? I guess they changed their routine a little bit.

Thank you...I think they are the same people and what is funny is I did not receive one phone call from them today

Go to the website 800notes.com and enter the phone #678-935-3580 and you will see many more victims complaining about "United Federal Bank".

FYI The FTC is very quick to respond. The more they here from you the quicker these guys can be shut down they are using phony names.

They are in India, I do not know how any goverment agency willbe able to shut them down. I sure hope there is a way

They are not in India. It is an illegal collection agency here in the usa using the name United Federal Bank to intimadate people into paying.

I RECEIVD A CALL ON FEB 27, 2008, AT MY JOB. I AM A TEACHER. I WAS COUGHT OFF-GUARD. PRESENTLY, I AM IN CHAPTER 13, AND KNEW THAT ALL MY BILLS WERE INCLUDED. BUT, FOR SOME REASON, I WAS LURRED INTO THE SCAM. I WAS TAKEN FOR 675.00. WHAT CAN I DO TO GET MY MONEY BACK?

Welcome to the forum Dorothy.

You should start by filing a dispute with your bank for that transaction, you should also file a complaint with your state Attorney General's office as well as the Federal Trade Commission.

Actually, they ARE in India. Call the number, ask to speak with anyone in the office. Dont you find it interesting that everyone in the office has a distinct Indian accent. There are tons of call centers over there now. They work for a fraction of what people in this country work for.

United Federal Bank is only one of many aliases being used by the Outlaw Bass & Associates firm out of Jacksonville, Fl. They are also using the name "States' Predisposition Services", "Dept of Finance Crimes Division" (Yep!), "Impact Business Marketing", "United Legal Investigations", "Ellis Crosby & Associates", "Jackson Phillips & Associates" and many others.

If you go to 800-Notes.com, you will find that they are calling from these (and other numbers):

678-954-0513
678-954-0520
404-000-4321
404-000-3849

There is a lot of information under these numbers, including the fact that these crooks are on the run from Florida AG Bill McCollum, who has filed a lawsuit
to get their operation shut down in his State. They have crossed over the State line and into Folkston, GA, in an attempt to avoid prosecution.

i was stupid. i have sent these several thousands of dollars and out of intimidation i paid them because i did not know. how can i recover this money if it is possible.

They called my husband today at his job. Does anyone know how they get your personal information. It is very scary. I am worried that they will drain our accounts.

Guest, your personal information is out there on several sites that CA's use; they have to have a judgement against you in order to seize your account.

bki if you paid them more than what you where supposed to then the only way to recover that money is to sue them. You will need an attorney and you can find one at www.naca.net.

today i received call from some india dude threatening that i was going to be arrested for a charge 625.00 for payday loan which has been taken care of. he gave me his co name united federal bank then later changed it to a cash loan place. when he was finished he gave me his name"James Sheffer" and a phone number told me to go to a western union and send it person to person to pittsburg, pa after receiving 10 digit transfer number to call him and give him all info so he can let the courts know not to pick me up for not taking care of my issues. needless to say have reported him to every company i can think of that needs to know.

awesome.don't give these idiots a dime.

I just received a phone call from them wanting $750. They said they were in Texas! Phone number was 281-940-1612. He claimed to be an officer. Used the name Jason Hunter and had a very heavy foreign accent. I could hardly understand anything he said. But I told him to kiss off. They got me before when they were in CA! This is truly a scam and I don't intend to pay them anything.

well i guess thay are now in jersey too im getting calls at work from mark henry from india via florida saying i owe money from last year on an account that has been closed for fraudulant charges how can they do this to people. i was thinking of filing a report with my local police because they have personal information of mine

Confussing and doubtful post on this subject.

A long time ago maybe 20 years ago there was a bank in illinois called United Federal Bank in Chillicothe, and Peoria area locations. They were bought out by First Financial Bank, Then Associated Bank bought First Financial Bank out and is current now. That bank United Federal Bank no longer exist.
