US Cash Advance harrassing me and coworkers

They are an illegal lender.....have written to them attempting to cease and desist them??? Call your local police department...or what phone company does your employer use?? Have the phone number blocked.

I got a call yesterday..picked up my phone and them I will need to call back...because I was at work..he kept calling..so last nite.he called and I asked him when was this taken out..said I cant give you any information..it was some time before 2012..but tomorrow on job you will be served and all your information will be on the paper..and they will arrest you and take you to jail...I said you didnt have to call for that ..do what you need to do...334_316_2534..when I called them back they didnt answer..yesterday along I got over 20 calls from them ..10 of those calls were back to back.

they are calling my job every 2seconds and i don't know how long my boss is going to take this what can i do

I had the same calls from broken English speaking men and women for on line cash advances in 2010. Just last week I rcvd a call from a Victor Jordan saying he is from Thomas and Associates PA in Houston Tx. and they are collecting a cash loan made to me by US Cash Advance 4 years ago. I do not remember that at all. I have done reverse phone number cks on the ones they have given me and does not come up for this company, as a matter of fact, 2 of the numbers don't show up at all. Has anyone had a call from an "all american man" saying he is collecting for US Cash Advance?  If he calls again, I will try to get an address and the exact date they say that was done and check with my bank. The numbers I was given are: 713-401-9673 and 888-238-6634. Let me know if any of you have heard of these people. I live in Alabama, so I didn't get a loan in Kentucky!!!!

From Nevada TX number 972-843-1586 U.S cash stated I owe an never took a loan out wit dem so I know this is a scum.

I received a call from someone with an accent claiming I owed them on  a loan that they attempted to withdraw from checking account and were not able to - number is 504-355-2607....    identify himself as with a local law firm.  wanting to get my attorney's name address etc.  threatening I could be arrested and sued.  multiple calls to my cell and to my work....

The first thing you have to realize is that you don't owe these people anything.

This is a scam based out of India. They hacked into some computers in the US and got all sorts of personal information about people and are now calling claiming to be police and making it sound like the cops are on their way to arrest you but you can avoid that by paying by credit card. Don't fall for it.

Tell your boss and co-workers about this - so that they know it is a scam and that they should (a) not believe anything these clowns tell them and (b) simply hang up on them.

Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do to stop the calls because they are from India and the FDCPA doesn't apply in India.

I received a call from 888-296-4293, or at least that is what I was told was the return call #. I hit *69 and was given the message the call could not be traced. I was told I was speaking with Nathan Davis and the call was regarding a legal matter. I told this "Nathan" that I was not able to receive personal phone calls at work...he then stated it was not personal. I asked for a number where I could call them back at and was given the above referenced 888#. I told this "Nathan" that I would have to call back but I wanted to know what it was in reference to. He said he would transfer me to his office because he was not able to give me any information. So he transferred me which seemed like he handed the phone off to someone else who was named Rachel Williams. "Rachel" told me that the call was in regards to a payday loan I had not paid from US Cash Advantage that was taken out in July 2008. I have no idea if I took this loan out or not so I asked for her to email or fax me some information. SHe said they already had and the only way I could obtain any documents was for them to send to my attorney and asked for my attorney's name. I told her I did not have one and I would check in to this matter. I have received calls like this before supposedly from other payday loan companies and been threatened many times. If I owe $ I will pay it but this harassment has to stop! The people I spoke with have an middle-eastern accent/dialect and would not provide me with enough information to check the validity of this. Based on past experience - I plan on disregarding this call UNLESS they can provide information in writing that I can verify from my end. It is ridiculous that people can harass hard working persons with scams like this.

they are a scam in INDIA.next time this person calls.hang up and try to avoid talking to them.it is a waste of time.again a scam in INDIA and do not talk to them as they can do nothing,and talking with them will only get you more calls.

Just wanted to update this for anyone getting similiar calls. The new "scam" number they are giving out is 1-888-785-4479. These are the same criminals as stated above. Do not give out any personal info, and I recommend signing up for Lifelock.

The new number they are giving out is 940-580-2400. They are apparantly not using 800 numbers all the time anymore. Funny, when I told the guy that I knew this was a scam, he won't pick up anymore...hhhmmm..strange...nobody fall for this please!

What are they doing that for?

my story is similar to yours. they are also using the names Max Smith and Adam Ryan.

They are using this number 940-580-2411 as I started getting phone calls yesterday and again this morning. The person that called me is using the name Adam Scott w/Cooper Law Firm in Gainsville TX.

I thought I was losing my mind when they started calling but after doing my research I am relieved to know that it's a horrible scam.

Im getting calls from a 8772196032 number. I live in Oregon... So there is no way I would be getting a loan from Kentucky.

I got a call from alex at coopers law firm. I called it back from the number i got on my voice mail. and he was like reading me my rights over the phone, very entertaining to say the least... so then after doing my research and speaking to my lawyer i called him back and told him he is breaking the law by continuing to call me, i did a reverse look up on the number 940-580-2411 and it shows its in Gainsville, TX . so like i told him i suggest he stops calling me as i have already notified my az attorney general and the FTC on this situation. then he continues to threaten me so i told him you know your stupid then he said i agree so i said wow nice you agree with me your stupid good to know. now stop calling me. your breaking the law stop calling me!!!!! then he said oh keep in mind i have your DL # and your SS# and i will ruin you..... i have all your street address and all contact info.... i said thats fine go ahead use it then you will get in trouble so i have notified all the authorities and have a freeze on my credit and everything else... then i told him your breaking the law and he continues to laugh at me and i tell him you know after doing a trace on everything i see it says that your in texas and well i dont believe this i think your over seas as he spoke broken english then he said so therefor he wasnt breaking any laws as he was not in the untied states. then i said ok just stop calling me then my phone starts ringing off the hook one voice mail saying your a stupid Fuc*ing B*tch. then after looking through my call log i had 15 missed called he said he is going to call me 24 times a day and at night.
upon further investigation the amount that they say i owe is 60 times the original amount these guys are seriously crazy.... so like i told him as he kept acting rude that hey i already opened my fortune cookie this week and it says im going to have good luck so needless to say im leaning more towards that.


So i told him that a real law office does not talk to people like this, so what does he think im an idiot????
so i reconfirmed that in THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA WE HAVE LAWS !!!!!!!!!! Then i said you know what this is my country i know my rights and i know the laws then he said F your country.....

If they call you, do not give them any of your information. do not confirm your information with them.
if they have " court documents" (which they do not) then what ever mail out jerks....
This is a simple scare tactic and guess what im not scared!!!! go ahead use my SS# use my Drivers license number try and "ruin me" I dare you!!!!! well see whos laughing at the end .......

i also had a phone call like the ones mentioned above, only they called my best friend first, who then called me. The guy's name was "Officer Brian Jones", and stated the same things... i owed money to US cash advance, they were going to arrest me, etc. The only thing that make sme happy is that i have a watch on my number since my wallet was stolen, and filed bankruptcy last year! Good luck getting anything in my name!!!

Its a complete scam. Some guy called me from Coopers Law Firm claiming he's from Dallas, TX and that I was being sued by UsCashAdvance and that if I don't give him 600.00 dollars he was going to ruin my life.
Obviously a real law firm would not threaten me. I guess they got all of their gimmicks from watching dramaTV

Ok, In order to get the FBI to investigate we all need to go under www.ic3.gov and file a complaint they can't do anything with just one person get involved to protect others.

They used the name evan scott

I got them on VIDEO and RECORDING on my phone today! Go check it out under YOUTUBE name MRAKULUS. I got 2 live calls on video and several RECORDED ones.

I started receiving calls on wednesday from these people. They started calling again today. They are calling my work and my staff has not realized who they are and has told them they have the wrong number they have gone as far as to tell my staff that the will be arrested for interfering witn a criminal investagation.

These people need to be stopped!

I started receiving calls today from an Officer Roger Smith stating I was being named in a lawsuit for things like check fraud and internet fraud and three other lawsuits that "are not misdemeanors" he said. He had a middle eastern accent. I spoke with two different people there. He said it was from US Cash Advance for a cash advance in 2009. Granted I still owe for a couple cash advances but not for US Cash Advance. I said I've never worked with US Cash Advance. He said it was the parent company. I asked him which exact company is filing the complaint and he couldn't tell me. I then asked him how I could settle this. He told me my payoff amount was 644 and I would have to pay him. While this was happening I was searching the internet and found this site and the real US Cash Advance site with the warnings. I explained to him that I would like his phone number and I would do some research and call him back. The two phone numbers I got were 518-304-1157 and 518-503-1906. I did reverse lookups and these are both in New York. I filed a complaint with the FTC, checked my credit report since they had my SSN, put fraud alerts on my credit report and also warned my work in case they were trying to call them as well.

What's funny is I received two different messages, both claiming they were Officer Roger Smith and they were TWO DIFFERENT VOICES. I know this has to be a scam but I have to admit I'm pretty scared. I've definitely had my share of money troubles that I'm trying to dig my way out of, but this really freaked me out today.

What else is there to do? What can I do? Just ignore them? They way I see it, if I was really being charged for these crimes, I wouldn't find out through a phone call. I would have been served some kind of papers by now!

I'm just very frazzled and upset by this now and feel very insecure about the privacy of my information.

I got a call from someone named Mark Hamilton claiming to be from a Law Firm Morgan and Associates. When the call came through to me it was a 050782 Blocked number. What kind of stuff is this. If anyone has an answer for me please email me at
Roger

I have had the same thing as all the above a Person by the name(Daniel Page) some indian guy. Is stating they have criminal charges against me for something I have no knowledge of. Then had my friend call this same number(888-827-7901) same person picked up and said there name was John Mattew. they didn't want to speak with me but were very herassing and said they are going to sue me.

I live in Nevada and received call from a "Daniel Page" with a middle eastern accent threatening to take me to court for defaulting on a loan. This guy never gave me the name of the company he worked for, was sometimes the attorney and sometimes the legal representative, and finally I got the name of the company from the Andy that answered the phone before he transferred me to his "attorney" Daniel Page. The number is 888-827-7901 and they gave me a fax number so I could fax over a statement saying I authorize them to take $500 from my Visa card and that this would settle it out of court. I started to get suspicious the more I thought about the phone conversations and the way he was harrassing me and threatening me. So I faxed over a letter telling him I had put a stop payment on the payment and that I wanted more information from them before I would agree to anything. Basically, he just continued to tell me that I was going to be taken to court, everytime I asked him for information he would tell me he already gave me that information so why do I keep asking for it.....What a dill hole. These guys are predators and professional computer hackers. I am certain they have a lot more of my personal information than I care to think about, so please beware, do not fall for their scare tactics, even if you do have an outstanding payday loan most companies will work with you not threaten and coerce you.

Have received 6 calls at work from 8772196032 from a Dennis Stein with a middle eastern accent. And I should believe you're Dennis Stein??? Asked to then speak to my manager. Wth??? They had my ss#, drivers license# etc. Cancelled credit cards, open bank accounts. Have filed a complaint with the FCC and the Atty General's Office in the state of Florida. Any other suggestions?

I filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and econsumer.gov which is like the FTC but for complaints outside of the U.S. The more people that file complaints about this scam then the more likely the FTC will investigate. Obviously it's easy for anyone to get a toll free number and they are using pseudonyms, but the more information you can get out of these guys the better so it can be provided to the FTC and econsumer.gov. Also, I highly recommend the FTC's website, http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/fdcpajump.shtm this link should take you there. Read the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and the link "Debt Collection FAQ's: A Guide for Consumers." This will educate you on your rights and what rules the debt collectors must follow.

Scammed and being harassed at work from people who cannot speak English, not speaking professionally or using correct English, Using a cash advance as a front and calling and stating that they are seeking legal recourse to collect a debt that is owed...the name Shawn Carter is used....beware...

Just recently my husband has been receiving phone calls on his cell from a Harry Morgon 940-580-4314 saying we owe money from US Cash Advance. We never had a loan with this company. He proceeded to tell my husband that he was a lawyer and that we would have to pay lawyer fees and court fees if we did not send him a prepaid Walmart card of $200. My husband called back and asked him to send us information which we didn't have and they said we would have to go to court and handle it that way. We have no documentation of any loans with US Cash Advance. When this was approached or you questioned about paper work it was denied or they gave a bogus excuse. He said he has my husband last 4 digits of ss#, address and knows who he works for. This is ridiculous what type of lawyer asks for a prepaid Walmart card???? He also asked for a copy of his drivers license. It is now getting out of hand when he is calling his office.

What lifelock is about? Just curious

[COLOR=black]I have been receiving phone calls from these jerks for over a month at my office and on my cell. I have made complaints to the Texas Attorney General. The latest call the guy said his name was Peter Scott and his return number was 315-238-5025. They spoke with my manager at work and gave her all my personal information this is very embarrassing, I had to explain to her that this is a scam...hopefully she believed me.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=black] [/COLOR]
[COLOR=black]There has to be something that can be done about these calls.[/COLOR]

We got similar calls. One from 6463285064 and one from 8582257744.
Their names were Dominic Jones and Steven Williams with heavy accents that you could not hardly understand them. We live in Minnesota and I guess they are getting around to every state. We do not know how they got our info but I told them we know this is a scam and harrassment and I guess maybe we would have to do a counter suite and go after them. I don't know what will stop them but they are sure annoying. Please do not fall for this. I wonder if the country of India realizes what a bad name this is giving them?

I've been receiving calls from phone #s 518 503-1906, 312 205-6431 they are telling me I owe 700 dollars in a loan. I never applied for a loan. They are calling me and two of me family members plus they are calling my work. They said I need to contact them with my lawyers information or pay the debt they said I will receive lawsuit papers in the mail. I haven't receive any information yet.

These guys won't give up. After a few weeks of no contact, they are calling again with a different number and a different tactic. Instead of threatening me now they're trying to be nice. I don't think these guys will ever get caught and the fact that they are so persistent is a little unsettling. I have a friend that is an attorney and I think I will have her give him a call back.

I did file complaints with the FTC and with econsumer.gov. I'm not sure that filing a complaint with my local AG will do any good since these scammers are outside of the US. Their latest phone number they have called from is an international phone number: 052797721.

I am also getting these calls and the new number they are using is 1-866-864-8202

I just got called this morning. They had Indian accents and used the names Sean Miller and Daniel Page. The return number is 866-960-6286. They scared the heck out of me accusing me of being a liar. I have gone through 18months of bank statements and have no deposits from US Cash Advance. I called a friend who is a lawyer and they are going to call them for me.

I am from Indiana and I'm getting calls on my cell phone that show up as 000-000-0000 I answered because I was curious. The guy said his name was dennis. He had an eastern accent and told me there were three charges against me for a loan I took out in 2008 from us cash advance. I told him to give me a number I could call him back at and he gave me 1-888-296-4293. When I called I heard a recording that said this call is being recorded and then a guy answered. I ask for dennis and he said let me connect you. He then yelled "hey Dennis its for you. When dennis got on the phone and after I said send me a document showing I took this loan out and he said could you call me back in a few hours. I said maybe if I havew time and he just ok. But Yesterday when he first called me he was very intimidating. I received a call about a month ago from someone saying the same ttype of stuff. I called a us cash advance and ask if they had an application on file for me and they did not. When I spoke with this guy again and told him what I had done he said ok monday someone will be at your door to arrest you. Monday came and went. Have not heard any thing until just yesterday again.

I called this number back and told them my attorney wanted them to send documentation to my eamile and that I would then give the document to my attorney, I have not heard anything since I left that message.

A new number they are using now is 347-844-6831 out of Brooklyn, NY.

I too am receiving the same sorts of calls, at home and at work. I am going to do whatever humanly possible to get these idiots stopped!! Join me!! There is safety in numbers!!

Oh and by the way, the callback numbers I have been given are 646-328-5056 from an Officer Joseph and 760-514-0143 from a Daniel Fox..both are of Eastern Indian decent. They informed me that if I did not take care of this debt, I would be arrested within the hour......guess what?? That was 2 hours ago...lol
