Scam or not? Very concerned
Date: Thu, 04/26/2012 - 13:08
I got a message left from a Case Investigator Spencer about some potential lawsuit being served. I have gotten a similar message in the past and I know it is is a scam. I called the number back because I didn't want them harassing my family or anything. Anyway, the second person I spoke too was calm and reasonable...not sure if that is part of an act.
He said there are four charges waiting to be filed against me. He listed the name "DJR Group" which is some payday lender and listed a date from 2010 and which he claims I took a PDL (which I didn't, have had a PDL in about six years). He said that his company was CCS. I said I will only communicate in writing and he said he would send something out but would also not be able to stop me from being served.
So...how should I approach this? Has anyone ever heard of DJR Group or any legal rights they might have in New Jersey? How about CCS? The phone number was 855-317-3302.

Use the number they called from to file complaints with the FTC
Use the number they called from to file complaints with the FTC and your state's AG or financial regulation office and the police.
When they call again, tell them (a) know this is a scam and (b) have filed complaint; then, hang up and do NOT talk to them again.
This is an attempt at extortion.
Thanks...so I shouldn't worry? Has anyone ever heard of this co
Thanks...so I shouldn't worry?
Has anyone ever heard of this company or know anything about PDL legality in NJ? I want to understand all of my bases. I know nothing of either company.
