I got an email yesterday (1/23/11) on a Sunday (yes a Sunday) that didn't even address me in specific.  It had a picture of someone in handcuffs talking about a bad check.  So I called them this morning (1/24/11 Monday) and left a voicemail.  They didn't return my call.  I called them back and the lady on the phone immediately told me that I owed over a grand for a pay day loan from 2007.  She said I was mailed numerous things about it and named my husband and my best friend and said they had been contacted as well.  She said that I was going to have my drivers license taken away and would be arrested for a felony.  Well, I called the Mississippi State Banking Commission and was told the payday loan company wasn't licensed in the state and neither was Dorsey Thornton & Associates.  She also informed me that if Dorsey called back, to let them know I had spoken to her, and that they had broken the law by threatening me.  She also told me that the payday loan was not legal, that the collection agency wasn't allowed to collect in MS even if the payday loan company WAS legal... and that it's not a crime (aka no criminal charged can be filed here).

If these people call you.. please check them out.  They have an F rating with the BBB, they aren't licensed in the majority of the states they are attempting to collect from, and are breaking the collection laws!!!

These people have been calling me for 2 years now. I paid them off back in 2008. They call every year. They should be sued. I have a letter stating I paid them off from CMG Recovery. We need to some how fight this. I got a call 1/29/11 stating I committed a felony. "NOT TRUE" I am a christian lady and don't do such things. This is got to stop. I am ready to file suit against these people for harrasment. They have call family members and me and this has got to stop. They are taking advange of people.

yes im getting these sames calls sayn there criminal dept is investigating for a tech charge that me or my attorney has 24 hours too call but they never ask me by my name

I get this call about once a week, always the same thing, being indicted for check fraud, I have 24 hrs to call/turn myself in, blah blah blah....I have not written a check in 10 years, and while I did bounce (small amounts) my bank covered the check with the overdraft fees right out of my next deposited paycheck. They never mention the name, I have called and on two occasions spoke to someone who obviously has the wrong person. I have had my phone number for years, yet this "incident" happened within the last 12 months. But as i filled them in on these facts (never giving my name or anything else...) the story would change with each subsequent call. I called one final time and threatened a lawsuit, told them to [***] off that the call was recorded on my end, ....still get the occasional idiot calling. Plus, this is an Atlanta number...outside of watching CNN and drinking Coca Cola, I have never had any business dealings or mailings with any entity in any southern state, much less georgia......

I keep getting calls from them saying that I am being investigated for check fraud just like ed. I know it can't be true because I have never written a check in my life.  They keep calling while I'm in class and my phone almost got taken away for it.  I haven't answered it yet, but it would be nice if they finally stopped.

They call me on a daily basis and leave the same message. the msg is warbled at the beginning and i cannot understand her. then recently ive gotten calls from california area code 908 then all 0s. funny, the msg ledft had same warbled msg....hmm Also people please be aware... there was an attempted hacking of my facebook account and facebook can pinpoint the area that the attempted hacking took place. and guess where? Georgia!! imagine that. i have since deleted most of my profile information.

I have received several calls from "investigators" at Dorsey Thorton & Associates telling me that I have to pay over $6000 by the end of the week on a payday loan that I had already paid and on some bounced checks that were covered by my bank... go figure...  or they are filing "pick up" charged and the state is going to file felony charges against me for check fraud and my license would be suspended.  They are the frauds... I had given them a prepaid credit card number that I ended up cancelling because I just had a feeling.  So they tried to run the six thousand and some odd dollars which was denied, then they proceeded to run one thousand dollars which was denied and then they tried to run five hundred dollars which was all denied because I had cancelled the card. They are out to take peoples money so do not fall for their bologne

Phone numbers they have called me from: 404-935-9490,     404-935-9478,    404-549-8605,  
                                                             404-935-9487

How about, if you owe it, pay the amount you owe.

Come one, These are not fake debts. leas can anyone tell me how the agency gets you SSN, Address, references, spouse information. Tere is no way this information can be obtained unless, now say it with me, YOU TOOK OUT THE LOAN. Now please pay your bills and stop looking for ways to get out of it. The economy will be better off if you deadbeats start being responsible.

Wow & what about the millions of people who had steady jobs & lost them due to this country's economic hardship.  Why don't you yell at your politicians & take your beaurocratic response to nCapital Hill.  It takes getting real when people are jobless have foreclosed on their home & penniless with something out of their control.  That's a pretty general assumption considering the National Debt Ratio.

I recieced a phone on monday stating i owed $1577.16 from kevin walker at bowers margeting group for a fraudulant check in 2007 from a CASHNETUSA payday loan i told the man to take me to court when he couldnt provide a mailing adress. On wensday he called back again no mailing address but yjis time i owed 2370.77. On thursday same man same number said dorsey thornton and associates and i owed 4755.77 again i asked for a mailing adress so i could send a cashiers check the man so no the only form of payment he was willing to take from a worthless debtor like myself was a prepaid visa card or money grahm i contacted my lawyer he did some searching and its a scam if you get tjis call tell them your lawyer is recorfing the call for federal investagtion by lae inforcement and see how fast they hang up.

This is a scam

And by the way i paid off my cashnetusa loan in 2008 without default. Concerned citizen yes some people do take out loans oay them off and then cashnetusa sell tbere info to other payday loan companies who again sell it to otjer next thing you know you are in a scam if you dont believe it go look up dorsey thornton and associates kevin walker and anthony lapino then go check out cashnet usa scam

Hey concerned citizen.  So these are real debts huh?  My 15 year old just got one of these messages on her cell phone.  Should I have a sit down with her and tell her about how serious jail time is, because not only is she committing fraud, she is also driving without a license since the nearest pay-day loan company is 15 miles away.

It's pretty obvious that this is the newest scam going.  These type of people amaze me.  If only they could use their skills for good rather than evil.

Concerned citizen must work for this company (and manage their website based on the complete lack of grammar and spelling in both the posts and the company website). I spoke with a legitimate payday lender who informed me that their databases had been hacked into which is why these scammers know all of your information. He said some of the payday loan companies are pursuing investigations as well. No one can legally threaten you that way. I've been to court for unpaid debts - believe me it doesn't happen like they tell you it will. You recieve a LEGAL summons, go to court and speak with an attorney to arrange payments.

I wondered the same thing, they called my uncle which i have no idea how they even got hos number and said i owed $1300 to them for something back in 2006 so I didn;t know and I paid it in the amount of $650 bc they said the same that I would go to jail and receive a felony. I just thought that the whole thing seemed fishy and I still do after I paid it but if I can get my $ back I will!
