Should I be concerned? what should I do? Also can loans in default get put on my credit? please help!
No need to get worked up over
No need to get worked up over this. Let it be and ignore the calls/emails. If you are feeling vengeful, file complaints with the AG and the FTC.
PDLs usually do not get anywhere near your credit report.
Lakota Cash
Just a little info.....Lakota Cash is owned by Martin Webb (Western Sky Financial) and is a party in the FTC lawsuit. Not sure how Lakota Cash collects but Western Sky turns over to Cash Call who supposedly "services" the loan but in all reality treats it as though they are the lender and it eventually gets turned over to Delbert Services Corporation, owned by Paul Reddam who owns Cash Call, for collection. Cash Call does report these illegal loans on your credit report and I have yet to find someone who successfully got them off of the credit report. You might want to check to see if Lakota Cash is on your credit report. Make sure to send them a C&D letter as well as a revocation of wage assignment which is usually burried somewhere in the contract you electronically sign. Make sure you give a copy to your payroll department as well because they have a history of trying to illegally garnish wages with a tribal court order (see the FTC complaint). Hope this helps!
