Help in Tx supposedly being charged with Check Fraud.
Date: Thu, 09/15/2011 - 11:06
I am frantic, I recieved a voicemail out of the blue yesterday stating that I had filed for check fraud back in July of this year and this N.H.A. legal and associates needed to talk to me. So I called this lady back and she proceeded to say that I was the one being charge with check fraud from a PayDay loan I took in April '10 for $400. They took the money out of my account to pay them back 3 days early and I didn't have the funds so I stopped payment. After multiple insulting phone calls and harrassment they finally stopped calling me. Apparently in July this year they stated they called me and have me on record saying I denied everything from who I was and the whole loan in general ( in which i never recieved call that I can recall ). So, after 15 min of her spouting off my information from ssi to the type of truck I drive I was baffeled no clue what she was saying she kept repeating I don't want to start the paperwork to supoena you I have bigger criminals to deal with. Finally I got her to tell me what she wanted and that was 522.06 paid to her with my debit card and then a 15.60 wire transfer fee. I told her there was no way I could pay that or come up with the money at 6pm at night. She proceeded to tell me that she would tell her attorney to go ahead and file the supeona and issue a warrent for my arrest in my county. I talked her into letting me call her back today after she then dropped the amt. too $417 just like that. I started to get curious and asked what N.H.A. meant and she had to put me on hold to figure it apparently and they stated this guy off google based out of vietnam. SO my overall general reason for this long drawn out paragraph is should I be worried that this "Agent Powell" from Georgia who works for N.H.A. legal who represents PayDay1 ( DSI lending in arlington, tx ) is going to arrest me!?
Calm down!! NOBODY is going to arrest you!!!!! Debts are civil
Calm down!! NOBODY is going to arrest you!!!!! Debts are civil, not criminal. THEY are the ones breaking the law.
ignore the calls and report them to your state AG's office.
After reading through this forum and your response I have calmed
After reading through this forum and your response I have calmed a little down a little bit, lol before I found this forum I even went to as far as getting a lawyer ( in which I still might ) This lady was beyond rude and abrasive and kept repeating that it was electronic check fraud. Threw me for a loop! Ty for response! :p

Hello! I too came to this forum cause i got a phone call from an "investigator" saying i took a loan out and they would be arresting me for check fraud. The vompany is from Costa Rica and i don t remember taking a loan out. So they asked for payment immediately and wanted a debit card. I am sitting in the hospital and freakin out now. I gave them my debot card cause i was freaked but theres no money as i have 2 days to get them teir first payment. They want $1300+ for the loan and attorney and court costs! Qe haven t even been to court yet! According to Tx law its not punishable right? Hat should i do? I don t remember if i did borrow from them..that was 2 years ago. HELP!

amazing
it amazes me the stuff that scamming idiots say to try and scare people.first nobody is supeoned and arrested at the same time.they are two different terms altogether.next to the poster who gave a scamming piece of garbage their card number.do as SOAPLADY advised.cancel that card immediately.when they call again report them,and ignore them.never pay a voice over the phone.anybody that has to threaten like that needs to be reported to the FTC.in fact go to www.ftc.gov and file a complaint online.the more complaints.the faster the FTC will act against scum like this.
