What happened? They were supposed to send me stuff by email....she said the same thing to me.

Hey Ronald arent you the loser pothead in ur mid 20's that doesnt have a job and sits around ur familys house smoking pot and sleeping to the middle hours of the afternoon?? Congrats.. ur a real nice addition to society you piece of garbage hahahahaha

If the debt is old - check your states statute of limitations.  In Texas - if the debt is over 4 years old - they cannot take you to court over it.  Also - when you signed the documents for a loan - you probably signed a waiver to a jury & the matter would be settled through arbitration - which means - not court.  If they are serious - the worst they can do is put a judgment on you & you can always "settle with the judge" before it goes to court.  Tell them you are going to send them a "Cease and Desist letter".  Then Google it so you can create your own & fax it to them at 716-691-3939.  That is a legal document telling them not to bother you any longer & they have to abide by it.

Very Illegal....I would report them to the Federal Trade commission. You can do this online - very easy!

Cindy,


Have you dealt with them before? I got a call Monday at home from these people and returned the call Tuesday. Dealt with a man named Mr Jones who seemed like what he was talking about. Gave me a deadline of 3PM or else. If dealing with a legitimate law firm this would seem unlikely. Wanted to settle over the phone with charges that way exceeded my exisiting payday loan from '09. Thanks for the info.

I got a call from some mr. jones from the same place, and said that i was gonna go to jail for check fraud which is so not wat it is. it was an issue with a check cashing loan place. anyways he went on and on about how its illegal to send anything in the mail about this. and how its an over the phone contract and i can not receive any information in writing. i really think its a scam .. honestly i never heard of a lawyers office where they cant have either mail or email set up.

Received a call telling me they were going to have me arrested on 3 counts 1-check fraud 2-breech of contract and the 3rd she could not find in my file. I guess I got a payday loan in 2009 and didnt pay it back.  What loans i did get I have paid back. She asked if I had been contacted by our local sheriffs department that was investigating this claim.  Ive had no contact. Anyone heard of such a thing.  I explained that I am going thru cancer treatments and money is tight and she insisted that I give her a c/c or debit card to make payment arrangments then she could stop the arrest warrant.  She called from 877-863-5647.  I asked her to mail me a copy of the contract and documents and I was told she couldnt do that.  Her name was Sarah Anderson

Here is a new number  Mr Clayton is using for the Nevada area 702-853-0600,i reciieved a call 4 months ago from him,at that time he said I had a online loan thrue  Bank of America about 2 years ago, I asked for a letter about this situation ,Mr Clayton said I willrecieve one after my fist payment so I set it up on a prepaid card, 2 weeks later recieved a reciept with a letter head,that was it,,,so now im at my last payment and I need it for my rent, so I look online for his lawfirm and I find this  site, so now I think ill go to court house and ask some questions...

i got a called also, i have no clue what this is? they said i had a loan and never paid.. i never got a loan?? so werid

I just got a call 2 days ago from a Jennifer and they told me who my debt collector was. She was harrassing me telling me if I don't pay it, they will finalize the paperwork and take me to court for a misdemeanor, fraud. She was telling me that I will go to jail and who's going to watch my kids.

I got the same thing. She said I would go to jail for fraud because I had got a loan and didn't pay it back. Basically, saying when they went to take it out from my bank, the money wasn't there so they are going to arrest me for fraud if I don't pay.

Nicole..did you ever go to court for this or was it a scam? This company said that i will be arrested and i had made a payment arrangement with them and supposedly the DA. Please advise.

what really kills me about these posts is that if you google any collection agency in the country there are these posts about people calling collection agencies scams.what is even funnier is that YOU people all expect to get away with not paying there bills.so when these bills arent paid there is a ton of debt that is just sitting there that is uncollectable because YOU people are bums.unemployed welfare collecting bums.mcdonalds is usually hiring and 7.25/hr is better than 0.oh but wait its better to have the tax payers pay for ur dope cars and kids??the taxpayers are the true victims out of it all.

Hey since you used to work there could you give me some location info for the company, I need to send a letter but they won't give out any information.  They are clearly violating the FDCPA and these are abusive collection tatics.  I work at a law firm myself and I work in collection law and know the FDCPA like the back of my hand.  This company will go down if I have anything to do with it.

jorge,
I hope you dont ever loose your job! You call people bums and that is a very uneducated statement in this uncertain economy we are living in! I was making 100,000plus yearly and found myself without a job. I never thought it would happen to me and looked at people in the same light as you! I now think it was karma

Yes i got a call yesterday from them saying that i have charges against me for canceling a ck 3 years ago . Come to find out that they have numerous numbers for the brostein shaw ass. I called the company that they say i owe to and i was told that they are now under new owners so how can they have charges on me when that company is now out of business and owned by someone else??? I think this is a scam ..ive been threatend from bronstien that if not paid they will issue a bench warrant and could face 5 years in prison  ..wat do i do now

I too have received numerous calls and voicemail messages from this place. The woman, Michelle Washington, indicated in her message that legal action for numerous charges such as check fraud were being brought against me in Tarrant County. She left all my personal info, such as address, DOB and the last four digits of my SS# on the voicemail both at work and on cell phone!!! Now THAT is ILLEGAL! They can call and leave a general message, but to leave personal information is completely illegal. I plan on filing charges against them with the FCC and my local DA for them breaking the Fair Trade laws.

I have rec'd a call from 716-220-8785 referencing a case# and my previous county of residence. I've also received calls w/ voicemails stating I can't receive calls collect from Tarrant cty jail and invites me call and "set up an account" so I can begin receiving these "collect calls". Yeah right, scam! I'd say from these posts & area codes they're located in Tarrant County TX or someplace in NY, most likely both. Too bad, make everyone suspicious of debt collecting calls!
