Hi I recv'd a call from 877-474-9964 in stating that they are calling in regards to a legal matter and that they are calling to notify me of serving suit papers and they will be using my home address, and if no one is home they will show up at my place of business and when they do I have to have my supervisor there and to show 2 forms of I.D., I need to call back to stop suit today. Does anyone know if they can do this?

Ok, so I found out that the name of the company that called and left me the threatening message was International Asset Group, LLC, and the person who left that message was a Thomas Edwards. I actually called the number and he this is what he stated. Oh, this is in regards to a pay day loan with Cash Yes and they have filed suit against you and the paper work went out about 10 days ago but I can call to see if I can have it sent back to our office. He puts me on hold and came back and said he's going to read an instant message sent to him by the attorneys, this message was clearly a script. In December I sent a cease and desist order for Cash Yes to stop ACH debits from my accounts because I learned that they are prohibited against lending to CT residents. I had also filed complaints with the AG, FTC and BBB. The loan was for $400 and I actually paid back $590 at the time I told them to cease and desist. Today I filed another FTC, BBB complaint. On Friday I also followed up with the AG office to notify them of my recent call from the bottom feeder as well as to get an update on the complaint I filed back in December. This is really starting to consume me because I don't want anyone showing up at my place of employment. As anyone come across this company and the individual who represents the company...any info would help.

how about letting your AG handle it,and not speaking to the loser again.he can't do spit and as long as you keep talking to him.he will call.again you pointed out that this is an illegal loan that you overpaid by 190.00.you did good in filing the complaint,but now if the idiot calls hang upon him.do not talk to him.he can do nothing but harrass.he isn't worth the time to even talk to.again,hang up in his face if you get caught on the phone.if you recognize the number don't answer.simple as that.it does make me sad that people continue to talk to humanoids when they file complaints.this is an illegal scam collector.bottom line.

Paulmergel,

Thanks for your response. The reason I called is due to the nature of the call on my work phone. His message scared the living crap out of me. Once I realized, after speaking with him and getting the details, that it was in regards to Cash Yes, I decided to file yet another BBB, FTC complaint as well as follow up with my AG's office. Trust me, I don't plan on talking to him again. I made sure in my complaint to the BBB and FTC I stated that they are calling me at work against my cease and desist order from doing so.

today, they called me at work again stating that they will be serving me papers at work in 24 hours. I have reported these people to the FTC, BBB and my AG, but I don't seem to be having any luck. The person who called me today was Alex and he called from a local number in my state (860) 285-1909. When I google this number I don't get much. I need help.

your AG will handle it trust me on this.alot of AG'S mine in IL included are busier than ever helping people against scams like this.do not fret over this at all.in fact do me a favor.ignore this loser,and see how many times he calls and leaves the same message.it's call the "broken record theory"these idiots think by repeating the same threat over,and over eventually they will get results.it's really stupid once you realize it.just do that for me,and know he is full of it.

Ok, I will try to calm down. I did speak to someone from my AG office a few minutes ago and she told me she knows the examiner talked to the company and she will have the examiner give me a call when she gets in from the field. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they don't show up at my place of business.

Ok, so this is what I just recv'd from my AG office.

Ms. (name deleted for privacy),

Your email regarding Cash Yes and the phone call you received from Thomas Edwards was forwarded to me yesterday.

Attempts to contact Cash Yes have been unsuccessful. Representatives of the company have not responded to inquiries made by this Deparment on your behalf.

After receiving your recent email, I attempted to contact Edwards by telephone but only received generic voicemail recordings in return. I will attempt to contact Edwards again in the near future.

In addition, I conducted a search of the state's judicial website and did not find any suits filed against you. Unfortunately, the experience you had with Thomas is not uncommon. Other consumers have received similar calls on behalf of payday lenders other than Cash Yes.

I will advise you of further developments regarding this matter, if any.

Update, the examiner on my case from the AG office called me today and told me that she called this Mr. Edwards and he stated he didn't know me and never spoke to me. Then he went on to say to her that no one contacted me from their company. He then later went on to say to her that I'm in their system and he cannot speak to her about this and he can only speak with me. She told me that she cannot find anything legal on this company that they are not a licensed collection agency and that they are a scam. She did however state to me that she don't want to say that no one will show up at my job and then they do so she suggest I file a police report and if they do show up for me to call the police. She told me to keep her updated as well as she will keep me updated.

I was contacted by Thomas Edwards. He told me he was representing Cash Jar from a loan back in the fall of last year. I actually did default on payment of this loan as I was informed by a debt consultant that they are illegal in NC. Mr. Edwards shared me so much that I agreed to repay $800 for a $250.00. I have already made one payment with another scheduled next week. Since I really did take out a cash advance loan, what should I do? I paid $265 last month.

here is what you do.have the method of payment stopped.if you gave a cc,report it lost.if you gave a debit card.have it cancelled and try to get the money back.claim this was unauthorized.then file a police report for the call as this doofus broke the law hand over fist.btw all pdl's are illegal in NC and you only owe the principle.that means you only owe 250.00.after all that file AG,and FTC complaints against AIG and the idiot thomas edwards.then do not talk to him again he can't do a thing he threatens.
