Hi...I had a PDL with Sandpoint which I now know is illegal in my state of California. I closed my account and tried to call to make arrangements on my principal balance but no luck and no response. Today I get a call from Lawson and Marshall law firm stating that I will be arrested for writing an e-check across the state lines and for possibly using my work computer. She stated that they will come pull my equipment out to investigate. All for a $300 loan that I paid over $200 towards. Her name is Arlene Marshall and refused to give me the address for the firm only that they are located in Atlanta. I know alot of this is b/s but she really kind of scared me with the arrest threats. Are her threats valid or is she trying to extort money from me? What do I do at this point?

OMG! They are so full of crap!! You can NOT be arrested for owin

OMG! They are so full of crap!! You can NOT be arrested for owing a debt, and that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard in my life, an e-check! File a complaint against them asap with your AG and the FTC, the link to file a complaint is in my signature.

Call them again and get them to repeat it on a recording.

THEY are going to have you arrested for using a work computer, h

THEY are going to have you arrested for using a work computer, huh? The threats these people use get more and more outlandish every day, don't they? If they call you again, ask them to send you something in writing on company letterhead stating what you owe and that it is in fact a legal debt. Wonder what they'll say to that? (and I bet you'll be waiting a LONG time for that letter!)
