I received calls from a William baker from a supposed legal firm by the name of "Crim & Ross" (which doesn't exist)... They stated that they work on behalf of cash jar and that they were looking to get payment on a loan that I have already paid, that if I didn't pay with a debit card over the phone they would garnish my wages! I ignored them because it just sounded obserd that a legal firm would even go as far as asking for payment over the phone. I took my chances with the. So called garnishment because I am currently unemployed. That just made their creditability lesser. That was 2 weeks ago; today I get a call from some gentlemen asking for me saying that I needed to call this 888 491 6172 to speak to someone regarding the summons he was going to issue me unless I resolve the issue, inwent on to ask this person who the he'll he was and he replied " I'm the person who just locates people to issue the summons" ok, he had no other information. Then I call this number he gave me and it happens to be another legal firm by the name of Johnson & Freedman" telling me that the work on behalf of cash jar and that I was going to be summoned for FRAUD!!! I then ask this "Steven" supposedly attorney, that I had received these calls from another law firm, he said he never heard of them, he proceeded by saying that I needed to pay 1500 to cash jar. He said I committed fraud, how can that be when they took payments out of my checking acct.? Can they really summons me in NY. This is really stressful. I paid them back 160.00 every 2 weeks for about 2 months and the amount I borrowed was for 625.00. Any advice? PLEASE. I'm not even working and have 3 mouths to feed. Am I obligated to pay them double or triple?


You've not written clearly where exactly you stay. I presume it's NY. As per the PDL laws of NY, all PDL loans are prohibited in your state. That means, they cannot sue to court for payday loans. They're just trying scare tactics to make you shell out more money towards the loan.

Another important thing, you're not legally bound to pay a single penny more than the actual amount you borrowed. So, in your case, you actually can send them a letter stating your state laws and asking them for a refund.

If you want to know about PDL laws applicable in your state, click on the following link and choose your state in the drop-down menu: http://www.debtconsolidationcare.com/paydayloan/explain-pdls-laws.html

first things first.cash jar is an illegal pdl,that being said cash jar is notorious for having their scuzzbucket minions call claiming to be attorney's.you should file a police report for the calls as whoever called broke the law.then using the info on not only cash jar,but whatever names of these "law firms" file AG,and FTC complaints.the fraud threat is a favorite of humanoid losers everywhere.they can't do anything they threaten.file the report,and complaints.then hang up in their faces without a word.that is exactly what they deserve.

J Cortez< I too have experienced what you have. I live in california. Someone called me claiming Crim & Ross Firm about two wks ago, i gave them my bankruptcy number. Then on July 29th, 10, i got a called form a blocked number, the man said that he was only calling to give me a courtsey call before i he finds me withing a wk to issue me a summons to appear in court and that i need to protect myself because they were going after criminal charges, that he was just the locator, that i needed to call 888 491-6171. That they will bring changes in my stae and county - I said what county- he said orange county california. I called the number and the lady told me the same thing you were told, funny thing is that she wanted me to negotiate the sum w her. I told her i would get back to her. I told her i filed for bankruptcy and i included the payday loan. ( at the time i had closed the account bcs i didnt have any money to pay the interest- took a loan of $450, every month from aug to nov they took out $270, i had to closed it i had no money- that was last year 2009) She told me that while the loan was on the bankruptcy , she wanted me to check if the the checking account was included bcs if it wasnt then im responsible for the bad check- and for that matter the whole amount of the loan plus interest. That if i dont pay, they will file criminal and civil charges on me. i told her i would get back to her later this week after i reviewed my paperwork. I search the name of the firm that she claimed to be calling from and it eems legit. But i was given an 888 491 6172 number not the number that i see online posted as a contact w that firm. I did call the attorney general and he said that they cant go after criminal charges and to try to call Cash jar corporate office and work something out w them. But the problem is i filed for bkruptcy, i included it, i cant seem to find anything online to help me as far as - i nlcuded the amount in bkrpty, can they prosecute for the bad check- it was only one that they went after. I had not hear form them for over 7 months and now i get these calls. What can i do to help myself. I didnt hire an attorney for my bkrpty- now i know that was stupid- now i dont know if to pay them them the $1000 they want , or only the bad check amount, or nothing at all.. i dont know if the person calling me is even affiliated w the Johnson &freeman firm. What do i do?

here is what you do.hang up on the losers when they call.you included this loan in your BK nuff said.btw an ACH debit is not a check.that is a threat losers use to extort money.hang up on the creeps,and proceed with your BK.another btw file a police report for the calls as the only laws broken were by the losers calling you.
