Anyone ever heard of this place?

Oh when I called her back there was nothing that indicated the business name it just goes to her. that is weird to me that no other "operator" answers just her.

mshirley. . I have dealt with Pay Day Max and they used Credit Protection Depot to collect, after I defaulted. Have you tried googling it? Could you call her back and ask for an address? Either snail mail or email? I would guess that they do collections for a lot of individual groups. The name does ring a bell with me but I am not sure why.

I'm not finding anything for New York. And the phone number turned up nothing.

The area code definitely belongs to Western New York as they have split the code and gave the 716 to Buffalo, Niagara Falls area and much to my dismay, I had to get a new one. I am thinking that perhaps I have read something in the newspaper regarding this organization?

It's probably some dude sitting in his pajamas, flipping through the TV stations, eating pizza, and using a "call list" to call people. I mean, come on. These guys are so illegal, it's digusting. It wouldn't surprise me one bit to find out it's some poor slob who earns pennys for each call he makes threatening people. Okay, sorry. I don't mean to discriminate. It could be a woman sitting in her pajamas making the phone calls! :lol:

cannr. . .could very well be. I am going to try and see if I can remember just why that name is ringing a bell with me. For some strange reason it seems like I got something in the mail connected to this but since all my "legal" bills would have been current I am at a loss. Damn, I'm certain I know this name. Now I'll be up all night wracking my brain to figure this out.

It'll pop into your head out of the blue, llw! That's how my brain operates anyway! Brushing my teeth.... OH! THAT'S WHO THAT IS!!! :lol:

No, mine usually hits me in the middle of the night! It will come to me eventually.

Well I hope zI dont keep you up tossing and turning over this.
Thanks all

Gosh I really cant type very well.

mshirley. . . I got it! I got a letter from them regarding an "old" debt of my former husband. I know for a fact that they debt was paid so that is why I didn't bother with it. However, I did go on line to look for them in Niagara Falls, and this is what I found. Could it be the one in the same? I am thinking so. Hope it works, if not, let me know. http://giovelawofficeexposed.com/northamerican.htm

llw, way to go! And that site also has that "law office" of Patrick Cobett listed on it, too! I've seen a few posts regarding his a$$, too! Awesome job!

cannr...let me tell you, I have become pretty expert on checking on things that don't seem just right. Which reminds me of something that has been going around in my mind lately. I am just curious to know if anyone else feels that there is more to these yahoos than what is on the surface. Case in point. Last month I got a call from the NYSLRS telling me that they had gotten a request for the procedure to follow for doing a partial "buyout" of my assigned portion of my former husband's pension. Luckily, they are very strict and won't talk to and do anything unless it is court ordered. I told them that I had NOT requested this and they assured me that it would not go any further. After that I get, in the mail, a very official looking "loan" document which some very specific info on it. I immediately called the number and spoke with a guy who was "located" in Connecticut. I immediately asked where he got the info and he also stated that I had "applied" for the loan. I informed him I did not. End of conversation. I tried to locate his "office" in Connecticut and there was no such company, address or phone number listed. I immediately went to Ripoffreport.com and surprise surprise, it was a scam out of Canada. I filed a complaint, that very night, via the phone with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, as instructed from RipOff's website. Now, just last week, I get another offical looking document with a $3900 check enclosed. I go to the banks website and find an alert regarding fraudulent checks as part of a scam. Even more strange, I have one of the listed checks in my hand! I read the documentation and I was instructed to cash the check, go to Walmart, purchase $100 worth of merchandise (which I could keep), send two Moneygrams to my "assigned corodinator for $1650 each, pay the $200 fee and I could keep the remaining $300 for my "self training". After all this was completed I would then be an "employee" of Consumer Protection Research Group. Then even enclosed an evaluation sheet to record how the WalMart folks were doing! This group is ALSO out of Canada. I called the Bank Manager and was instructed to send all the documentation to the Bank as it was being investigated as fraud, among other things (money laundering, crossing not only State lines, but Country boundaries as well) and was it okay if the authorities contacted me. Well, I say, sure it is and hopefully you can catch these idiots. I consider myself a pretty intelligent person but what if an elderly person, or a challegned person got this? I don't even want to think of the ramifications. NONE, I say, none of this has ever happened to me before I got involved with the evil doers. I swear to good God that there involvement is far reaching, farther than every I anticipated. There must be some sort of cross reference, or shared site that these people frequent, or they are all in this together. So, beware my friends, they are everywhere. Guard your info with your life and check everything out. Luckily, I am just curious enough to want to know more and my experience with this situation has just reinforced that behavior. Ripoffreport.com is an interesting site and I try to use it often. If nothing else, it makes you think before you act.

WOW!!!llw1995 they sure know how to find you don't they (LOL) i am going to check the website you mentioned as i received an email that was supposedly from Wells Fargo about updating up info with them.. I called and was told that they don't do that and to forward the email to them so they could pass it onto their fraud department.

whiterock. I swear to good God that somehow all this nonsense is coming from the same source. My only hope is that once I am finally done with the PDL's that it will stop. I jokingly say that I have a neon sign on my back that only idiots can see and that is how they find me! I get those kinds of emails all the time from Bank of America and I don't even have an account with them any longer! I also got one, supposedly from the IRS. I think these guys are phishing for personal info cuz once you respond it gives them a "cookie" situation to trace back. There are SO many "criminal element" people out there that it scares the wits out of me. In fact, I got something from Columbia House, to which I am a member, telling me that my credit card info was wrong and they needed another. I had closed the account I was using so it was legit, but I freaked out and sent them a very short, not so nice email. They emailed me back apologizing for bothering me and they would just send me the info through the mail. I felt terrible and called them to apologize and also explained that I had recently had some fraud on my bank account and was just be cautious. They understood, but still. What these people are doing to people is making me crazy. Give Ripoffreport.com a shot. It's interesting what you can find on there.

I will..would like to know what is out there...keep getting emails where i have won a bunch of money from the UK lottery i am in the mood where i email them back and let them know they are a scam and i am going to report them...

whiterock....that's what I do with all the PDL invitations I receive. I just email them back letting them know that I am on to them. I get all that stuff from the UK as well. It's like the Nigeria crap. It's amazing how many con artists are out there.

Its a way for me to take out my frustrations.. i get so sick and tired of their crap...

I hear ya whiterock. Actually, I think getting sick and tired of the crap is a good thing. I liken it to someone who is terminally ill or when someone passes on. First you are in shock, then you are scared and then you get mad as hell. When you're mad as hell, your getting better, at least in my mind anyway.

Thanks I will look that up
They called me agian today but it was 800 number and she said that she did not know why I was called " He forgot to take you out of my "QUE" whatever that means. Here it is Sunday at 5:55 in the evening.
same mrs Martin but different number.
1800-391-9606

OMG this is the place They had two different phone numbers and The onle that called today is the same one from that!! the 800 one so now that I have an address i can send a letter telling them to stop calling my work and home right/

wildkat. . that number goes right back to Capital Recovery Associates in Niagara Falls. Please read the article on the website that I referred to in my earlier post (it's on the first page of this thread). They are specifically speaking of this organization. Tread carefully. Forewarned is forearmed. Keep us posted.

If you really want an earful, google Giove Law Offices. Isn't the internet a wonderful thing?

mshirley. .I am glad that I could help. Did they ever indicate exactly what the collection was for? Perhaps when you send your letter and question them, that will be the end of it. The more I read on this board, the more convoluted this "activity" becomes. Seems like everyone has their finger in the pot. Keep at em'

Yes they said it was for payday max which I do owe but I only borrowed 190.00 with cost of a bounces check would be 30.00 more in Kansas laws I think but they are trying to get almost 500.00 bucks for that.

llw1995..best of luck in this situation!

socks.....thanks a bunch for your kind words. All will work out in the end!

mshirley....I would suggest you research this situation and make sure that you are dealing with someone who is connected to PayDayMax and not just coming after something that they shouldn't be collecting. Do the C and D letter to PayDayMax and go from there. You can get a copy of it on this site.
