Has anyone had to deal with these people. I am guessing one of the Payday loans I had, has sent them information because they called me today. I will be calling them back, but just curious if anyone else has information on them?

What should I say to them and should I send them a C&D letter?

I live in california and the couple of payday loans I had are illegal. I stopped paying after I found this out and they have not wanted to work with me. I was just about to send out the C&D letters to the creditors, but then Harbinger called me.

Thanks


You need to go to your state website of Department of Financial Regulation and check for licensee to see if lender is licensed in your state. What state are you in and the name of the caller? Good possibility that they are illegal.

either stop listening to the voicemails,or use them in AG complaints,but know the threats are an attempt to get you on the phone so some scrub with issues can illegaly threaten you.i was just like you when i came here almost 5 and half years ago.in time i got amusement from the messages as i knew they were full of it.be patient it will happen with you as well.i can feel it.

Sounds like Harvinger, but I think it might be this place.
How do I get them to stop calling me?

Will be tough to get them to stop. If you recognize their number, simply do not answer phone. If the calls persist, report to your state AG and the FTC.

I am dealing with this company now. The pose as lawyers and legal guys, but after all of the subtle threats the debt collector shines through. If you do work with these guys, get a "Pre-paid" Card to pay them back, do not give these guys access to your bank account. Keep in mind they do not get paid if you do not pay whatever loan company they represent. They need your money and will cut a deal. Especially since they are not recognized by the BBB and represent Pay Day Loan Companies that are NOT licensed to operate in the United States.

My husband's ss was stolen and a payday loan taken out so we took all the necessary steps ie; credit freeze, police report, notes, fraud alerts, the company absolved us of it.
This company calls and tells me that we will be a defendant that a huge loan was taken out she is representing the company and she starts telling me that that they did a fraud search and the IP address was directly from my home!! Freaked the crap out of me!! She was lying!! I asked for all the info, she put me on hold and never came back. So I kept calling her from my other line till I got her. I ripped her a new one! She did not know who she was dealing with! Piece of crap collector posing as an attorney.

I got a call from a guy claiming to be Edward Cohen from Cohen law offices. he said if I did not pay 600 plus dollars they would file a lawsuit against me in my county in Nebraska. Only trouble is On line pay day loans are not legal in Nebraska. i discovered this a while back and have already contacted the States banking and regulations debt. This guy Ed tried to tell me 25 states allow payday loans Yes Nebraska does allow them. Only thing is Pay day loan companies first MUST have a physical storefront location and have a 50,000 Bound to do business in Nebraska. Then they are limited in the amount a payday loan can be made for The Maximum amount is 500 and that includes and any Interest and fees charged and a physical check must be presented to them ACH payments are Not allowed at all. This Ed said he was going to send the company I work for paperwork to get all my pay information which without a Court order is not legal. If they want to Fly out from New York and file a suit they will lose money and the State of Nebraska will then Sue them for illegal loans. Nebraska has already sued several of these bottom feeders. and has banned advertising online pay day loans in the state. I actually got letters from Both Great Plains pay day loans and money mutual and that was after Nebraska banned mailing ads. These companies feed on people who get in a pinch and need cash to get through tough times then keep you trapped with the high interest

They contacted me about a pay day loan that I found out was illegal and they represent Cash Yes. I am in Indiana and I told him that they wereillegal in my state and that I already paid half of what I owed on the lloan. Also spoke to a man named Mike Anderson saying that they don't want to file suit for the rest of what I owed Cash Yes and to send 25.00 to a po box 586 Williamsville NY 14231. Also told him that I contacted the Ftc and the fbi about threats. Did a reverse lookup on phone numbers and looked on their website. I have two numbers 1-866-761-1901 and the one I personally called through the website is 1-888-284-7412 I just noticed on this post that their is a third number for them 1-866-710-0751.

Help please!

I recvd a call from them today. After doing a little research on both the company and the payday loan companies... I have discovered, that at least in California, the state has issued "desist and refrain" orders against both of the companies I owe money to. I knew when I took out the loans they were evil, predatory lenders. I just didn't know HOW evil. I called Mark Anderson back at Harbinger Processing, leaving a voicemail and offering to send him a copy of the desist and refrain orders from the state of CA. He has threatened to contact my employer. While I know he and the company are engaging in illegal collection processes I wouldn't put it past them to contact my employer. But, otherwise, I'm not giving this issue another thought. I can't imagine, given the "desist and refrain" order the company would have the balls to take this to small claims court. This is just same lame debt collection company engaging in completely illegal and shmarmy practices!

My daughter just received a call from "Harbinger" co. of New York. The man on the phone were asked her for information about me, her mother. The man on the line told my daughter that I needed to contact him by 2 p.m. today. I always screen my calls and I found this blog online. I am not returning the call. What should my daughter and I do?

Got a call from a John Fishman at Harbinger Group. Does anyone know if US Fast Cash is illegal? I'm in TX. I sent them a C&D letter, and they stopped calling...now this place is calling me. Should I send them a C&D letter? He only called once and when I wouldn't verify my address, only my email, he said "Thanks Amy" and hung up. I don't want them calling my employer either.

Harbinger called me as well. They said they 'bought' my debt from Castle Payday. I told them that the loan was illegal in my state. The more the woman talked to me, trying to convince me I was wrong about that and she came across as very defensive regarding tribal loans, the more I realized they were actually part of Castle Payday and not an outside debt collector like they were posing as. When I told the lady I was going to report them to the CFPB, she immediately backtraced and said they would stop calling me and remove me from their records.
