Cash Advance USA review: Bogus Collections - Scammers!!! 446

i have also recieved the exact same phone call from a person who told me to contact david cooper. this is nothing more thatn a huge scam and apparently they r making money as they are still doing it and no one has put a stop to it! i will be contacting the fbi and hopefully getting something done about this scam in particular. be aware everyone some people make a living on scamming those that actually work for thei money! god bless and have a great day!

i recieved this same phone call and since they could not give me any information for me to track i called the fbi only to be told that is a definate scam and they know about it and have people working on it as we speak. nice to know someone is taking this matter seriously!

I am getting frequent calls saying this law group is representing us cash advance and that they are collecting 679.00 from us or they are sending a team out here to arrest me. So far three different people frm this place have called today. Their names:David Cooper, Max Malden, and Mac Morgan. These men verbally assaulted us and didn't back down when we told them we were calling the police and reporting them to the FTC, which I'm going to do now.

MY name is Robert johnson and i have been recieveing calls from US Cash advance saying i owe them $1500.00 and i have never taken a loan from them.They have threaten me saying they were going to arrest me, That i need to get a lawyer.These people are cracy and need to be arrested for harasment.They are of adifferent nasonality you can't understand them very well. Iwill report them to the FTC. They use some legal attorney named Copper to sue you.

I have recieved phone calls from the same guy. Once back in 2008 and again on Sunday May 28 2012 saying the I owe Advance cash usa money. If I didnt pay it they would get the cops to come to my house and arrest me. I told that was fine to go ahead and send them. He told me I owed them 5000 dollars. I laughed at him and he got really mad. He also called my work and left a long message on the answering machine saying the same thing. I had to explain to my bosss that it was a scam and that he had called me inthe past. I could lose my job over this guy calling my work. There has to be a way we can sue these people or soemthing to that affect for harresing us at work.

i do feel and have the same thing! i told them that i have never borrowed from "US CASH ADVANCE". or ever seen them adding money 2 my account . So why do i owe this money again? Of course they did not answer me. They just said; we are suing u on the account of "FRAUD". I told them that it can not b fraud, if i have never received any money from the company!

i received a call numerous times... its comes up like every 3 months and i get the same voice but different names... they say they have your email and last 4 digits of your social security number. i told the guy to stop calling me cause i never received the money i called my bank got statements and no MONEY.. i told him to stop calling my f--ing phone. if he calls me again im gonna beat his a$$.. its so annoying.. don't pay attention to them just laugh in their face and say JUST SUE ME and lose my number.. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

They have called me several times. The first saying I have an outstanding loan out for US Cash Advance, the second for Quick Cash. Several times for each one. I asked if they had my SSN they do! I never used these payday lenders. I did reverse number search one comes up a land line in NJ, one in PA and a cell in CA. I knew immediatley it was a scam when every time they call you can tell they are middle eastern and they give english names one said his name was David Jones I could not stop laughing another female told me her name was Samantha. They are not very intelligent con-artists but they did find a way to steal my personal info so be very carful

I received a phone call from [protected] and the person said F you I will call your boss get you fired. I don't know where these people get the contact numbers from can anyone answer that? It is very disturbing. I even called the LA County Sheriff's office where they said they were from to verify.

I also have been receiving calls of the same, stating that I owe them $473.29 when I told them that I thought that it was a mistake they said that is fine we will start the legal proceedings. They also wanted me to pay that amount right then and there with a green dot card. They also stated that they were charging me with 3 different crimes for this. At first I was so scared I told them fine I will pay the money what do I need to do, he said I needed to fax a paper to them stating that I was sorry for this and I won't do it again and won't go after them so I faxed the paper to them, then when I came to work this morning after looking at records at home realizing that I didn't have a pay day advance through this company this is how I discovered all these other claims against the company. The people also calling me sound to be middle eastern and when I tried to call the number back today it said that the magic jack number you are calling line is busy and to leave a message. The number I was getting calls from is [protected] which is a CA area code. They also told me that they would have the police arrest me at my place or employment or send them to my home and that they had a warrant already issued for my arrest, I called my local police station this morning as well and the police stated that they could not do this. I am not paying them the money I originally told them I would pay today after reading all of these claims, the people were very rude and when I kept trying to find out information they would hang up on me. Please be aware.

It's a scam! They are using throw away cell phones. My call came from an area code in Canada. I had a police officer try to call them back to no avail. He said change my phone number because this is a scam usually targeted at the elderly. Don't fall for it even if they claim you are being charged with a criminal act. It's not true! Keep your guard up! They called me from [protected]. This is a non-working number. God bless you all!

I received the same call from a Mr. Bill Castillo with the Financial Crimes Investigations Department, who is also under the alias name of U.S. Cash Advance for a payment that I owe them $800.00 that was from a loan off the internet. The number I was getting these calls from is [protected], [protected], and [protected](one of the numbers is unlisted!). This is the same individual who was been threatening people before including me over the phone who speak in a thick barely cannot understand Middle Eastern/Indian or Cambodian accent. I have reported this information to the proper authorities including the Federal Trade Commission and the FBI.
This is nothing but a international scam! DO NOT SEND THESE PEOPLE ANY MONEY!

I received a phone call last night from a man calling himself Jack Taylor. He said he was from the legal dept of USA Cash Advance and that I was refusing to pay back my payday loan and if I didn't pay I would be arrested today and taken to court at 11:30 AM today.He called me after 6:30 PM. He could not give me any details about the loan amount or when the loan was taken out. All he wanted was money. The first call showed a caller ID of Jacksonville, Florida # [protected]. This morning he called me from [protected] in Atlanta, Georgia. This Jack Taylor spoke with an Indian accent. To my knowledge I have not made a payday loan from USA Cash Advance.

Last night I received a phone call from [protected] in Jacksonville, Florida. I spoke with a man with an Indian accent who said his name was Jack Taylor and he was from the legal dept. of USA Cash Advance. He told me that since I have been refusing to respond to e-mails regarding my loan that I would be arrested and brought before the court tomorrow at 11:30 AM unless I made some type of payment immediately. He had my personal information but could give me no information regarding this payday loan. This morning Jack Taylor called me from [protected] in Atlanta, Georgia. To my knowledge I have not made a payday loan from USA Cash Advance. I think I will call the FTC myself and file a complaint.

They tried that mess with me. I contacted my states attorney general's office and filed a complaint.

I just got a call from Ron Baxter---[protected] saying I owed 550 some dollars to US-Cash advance--anyone else gotten a call from Ron Baxter?

I like all of you received a call from [protected] some man said I owe 8, 000 for a cash advance loan with his company us cash advance.I told him he must have the wrong person, he then gave my bank name and said he had my ss#.He said I would be arrested if I don't pay 500.00 today.I told him I was on my way to the police and needed his business # or a ref #, he did not give me one.The line went dead, I called back and got a voice mail, I left a long message about being at the police dept and needed someone to call me back, they never did.I called about an hour later the same guy said hello sounded like he was asleep, said he could not hear me and hung up.I filed a report with the FTC.Man this is scary...

My Fiancee has been getting calls from a "Adam Jones" from a USA Cash Advance and we never applied for any of that and said that he owed less then $500 well the Cash Advance places dont do that by pone or none of that he had all of my Fiancee's info and my info and was saying and still is saying that if we dont pay the money we are going to get arrested I just want every one to be fare wormed and pray no one falls for this phony debt collector

Interesting...I got a call from Ron Baxter too and the number he called me on is [protected]. Told me he was a "supervisor" and that I owed $393.84 and I would be sued and subpoened if I did not pay this amount yesterday. I asked him who this supposed pay day loan is from, and he told be USA Cash Advance, but when I asked the name of the specific company that he could not tell me because they are the parent company to over 500 payday companies. Utter ###! I asked what the amount was that the loan was for and he said between $200-$500, again total bs. The only loan I ever had out was for less then $200 and I paid it off. I will admit that the tactics they used did make me extremely nervous but I know the only thing they can do is sue me. I can not be arrested. I'm so glad that I found this on here and the next time Mr. Ron Baxter calls, with his Indian accent, I will be glad to tell him that I am on to his little game and exactly where he can go with his $393.84. I'm thinking the number he called me from may be a cell phone, though I will say that when I called him back after getting his message I did hear a ton of people in the background, all male ( from what I could tell) and all Indian or Asian accents. So, this scam evidently has quite a number of people in on it. I will be calling the state attorney's office on Monday morning.

Just received a call from 'supposed' attorneys office in CA. A VCF attorney's in Placerville, CA. The number is [protected] saying that I took out a cash advance of $300 which I know I did not. He said someone must have hacked my yahoo account and that I could pay them $3000 to make it go away. The name he used is Eric Brown, (mind you, Eric has a thick indian accent) I am positive I never took out a loan with Cash Advance USA. Who would I file a complaint with?

These people have been harassing me for the last week. My story is the same...indian accent, has all my info and threatening jail. At first I was so scared that I actually did confirm my ssn and dl # (kicking myself but I didn't know!) but then I kept him talking and figured out it was a scam because of his lack of interest in providing any sort of official paperwork to me. I have since filed complaints w/ FTC, FBI, put a fraud alert on my credit report, purchased lifelock so I can monitor. HOWEVER, the idiot keeps calling me at work...it's a direct line so it's just me that gets the calls but now he has caller ID spoofed my work number! I blocked the original number he was calling from both on my cell and had our IT guy block it on my work phone...not soon enough because now he calls my work phone from my work phone number and also my cell phone! So there I sit in my office and see my own work number show up on my caller ID! Scary that he may be using my work # (I work for a non profit agency that helps people in need!) to call and harass people and try to get money out of them! I worry that he has also caller id spoofed my cell phone number and am about to change my number.

My advice for people is to drive them nuts with questions. I asked him to repeat and spell everything (since I couldn't understand him) he got so frustrated. LOL! Then get nasty with them. They can dish it out but they can't take it.

well its 11am and i am at work and get this call from a "Jack Morris", says he is with us cash advance and needs to collect a debt from a payday loan that i recieved and never payed back. i knew something was wrong cause i never took out such a loan. To make a long story short, he continues to call nonstop for 2 and a half hours straight demanding that i give him a credit card # to settle up this dept. police were called and they traced his calls ( all 106 of them) and ended up he was calling from a call center in Massachusetts. my job actually had to get his # blocked so he couldnt call again. The police say it happens all the time, so be careful and dont ever give these people what they want!

OMG! these people are still at it! My Indian person's name is "officer frank wilson" from "eagle investigation". so like an idiot i called the number he left. A girl answered. said they were a law firm and they told me i took out a loan from between 2008 and now (imagine) that i didn't pay back. they even had the wrong first name for me, should have been my first clue. they couldn't go into specifics either. she said they had a copy of my credit report and there were no black marks on it, so i should pay the $1, 000 plus amount that i had still owed someone from US Cash Advance, although they wouldn't give me the company that i supposedly owed it to. please don't give these people any money. if you ever get sued, you will get papers from a court, not some bs artist. geez, i actually almost fell for it. i was practically screaming too how i always pay back my loans from whatever place i owe money to. Well, they are quite believable anyway. maybe they work for Bollywood.

I had a similar phone call today. when i call ed back he told me to give him information and i needed an attorney. i told him he was a scamer and i will tiurn him over to the Dept. of Fraud and also the BBB. the number they called from was [protected]. He called himself Andrew and the other one Raymond. I told him your are a Scamer and quitt calling me. After i called back 5 more times they kept hanging up.

I received a call today from US Cash Advance [protected], middle eastern person speaking, telling me i needed to contact them about a crime and if i didn't i better get an attorney. I called them back and everytime i called i got a different person. I told they they were scamers and i would turn them over to the FBI. I called serveral more times and a Raymond answered . I told him he was a big scamer and he needs to learn how to speak English before calling people. I told him this scaming people don't fly with me and i cursed him and hung up. What is next here ? these people need to be stopped.

Hi I just received that call today too. Some Indian guy telling me that I owed us cash advance almost $400.00 dollars. He didn't want to give me any information but insisted I owed money. He goes by the name of ERIC BROWN he's a attorney suppose ably. If u want to report it call the FTC at [protected].

They told me that the police would be here tomorow before 11 to arrest me. I asked for info about the loan and they said the police would have all the documentation with them. I reported them to the police. Then I called the people back and told them that I reported them to the police. So lets see what happens tomorrow.

Here is another one he called my job today and asked if I had a lawyer I told him no he said I would have to call his boss Alex at [protected] I did he said I owed $5484.85 and that I would be arrested today and my paychecks were going to be garnished, I was being sued and arrested for a loan that I never took out just looked into. he also told me to be at court today at 2pm and bring court fee & bail money. He then continued his threats by stating that someone would be coming to my work place and contacting my supervior. I feel threaten,

I just got a phone call today at work, I was being reported to the BCI deparment, something about bad consumer, and that I owed anywhere up to 1500.00 he did not know the amount but that it was US Cash Advance. I asked him when this was taken out and he could not tell me the original loan amount nor date. He had my place of employment, my address, my social, drivers license number and my banking account. I had used payday loans in the past, huge mistake, but have paid them all in full. This person told me I was going to jail today and I had one hour to contact them back with my attorney information or make payment today. That they would send an officer to my place of employment and haul me off to jail and I would lose my job. Very thick Indian accent. I believe name was Brad Nelson that was given and a phone number of [protected]. Thanks to this website I found trying to research this company, I will be reporting to the FTC and also FBI..

I got the same phone call, and I did not get a loan from them, they are nasty and yelling at me, said today i would be arrested, I am 71 years old and have Diabetes, and last night after the phone call I was so upset that I trembled for hours, who needs this? this needs to be stopped somehow, I just can't take this, what a scam and it looks its been going on for years,

I recommended quick payday loan

I have received the same call from this company and I was told that the middle eastern sounding man that he was in the legal department for US Cash Advance, USA Cash Advance and United Credit saying that I had loans with these companies. I told the man that I've never had loans with these companies and that I would be contacting the companies myself in reference to the so-called loans that I had supposedly received. When he heard me say that, he quickly hung up the phone. This person knew my name, social, date of birth and even my job along with my phone number. I haven't gotten any more calls from this company but it's from the same number that everyone else has been receiving calls from.

I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM [protected] - THE PERSON CALLING SAYS THEIR NAME IS JAKE ROCKWELL AND IS WITH THE LEGAL DEPART FOR US CASH ADVANCE AND WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO MY ATTORNEY AND NOT TO DISREGARD THE PHONE CALL. I DO NOT HAVE AN ATTORNEY AND KNOW FOR FACT THAT I HAVE NOT TAKEN OUT ANY PAYDAY LOANS OR ANY LOANS AT ALL IN MORE THAN 5-7 YEARS. I AM DISREGARDING THIS CALL AND HAVE HAD OTHER CALLS SIMILIAR TO IT AND FOUND TO BE A SCAM OF A CALL. I WILL BE CONTACTING THE LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT AND POSSIBLE THE LOCAL TV STATION TO HAVE THEM AIR THE SCAM THAT IS BEING PERFORMED. I MAY ALSO CONTACT THE FBI AND LET THEM KNOW OF THE SITUATION.

i just received, this is my second call this week from the same man . told me i took out a loan and he was gonna have me arrested . come to my work and then when i started to ask him questions he got mad wouldn't answer me and then hung up ...
the number is from the Baton Rouge, LA. area [protected])

I received my first email from a person calling herself Jane Austin, January 8th - in the body of the email there was my exact social security number, home address, they had my banking information but not accounts. I responded to the email, asking that if I owe money, what is the payday organization I borrowed the money from the $amount and when. The next missive did not answer any of my questions. I have since received a total of 7 emails. All detailing that if I don't wire the money via western union or netspend, I will be subject additional court proceedings. I have decided to ignore these emails, but I keep a separate folder as a point of reference, I will search US Cash Advance, to forward these emails to them, maybe they will have more luck in getting this Jane Austin off my back.

I have been receiving these same calls. I got really suspicious when they said I got a payday loan last month but couldn't provide a date. Then a few months ago they told me I had got a loan a different month and different amount. These people need to stop. They told me the payday loan was from US Cash Advance. I don't know these people I don't owe these people .They have my social security number, my old bank info, and my old address. When I traced the call back, it came when a cellphone. Please don't give these people any money or your information . I learned after that first call that these scammers would say anything to get you to give them money. Ask them the date the debt accured they can't tell you, ask them you so called account number they can't give you. I two wish these people will get arrested and get the max jail time from trying to ruin hard working people's lives.

This morning at 6 a.m. we recieved a call and my husband answered the phone and they asked for me. I currently am pretty much bedridden due to a blood clot in my right leg from my knee to my ankle. He informed them that it was 6 in the morning and to call later. I recieved a phone call around 7:30 from a Richard and was informed that there was a lawsuit against me and I needed to call Dexter Cruz at [protected] regarding this. I called the number and Dexter informed me that I was being sued by Cash Advanced USA for fraud and that they were going to have the cops come and arrest me and sue me for over $3000 if I did not go to the nearest CVS or Wallgreens and call him from there today with the $496.00 that I owed and he would give me further directions from there. I informed him I have never heard of Cash Advanced USA and would not take a loan and not pay it back. He was very rude and demanding threatening to have me arrested. I asked him why I have not recieved any legal paperwork and he told me that they had sent me numerous emails and I did not respond. I was almost in tears about this and told him I would call him back and he gave me another number [protected] to call him back. I researched my email and there was nothing from Cash Advanced USA, called my bank and nothing from them either. Then I went to the website for Cash Advance USA and which I didn't recognize and looked through it and found on their website-CashAdvanceUsa.net Does NOT make ANY calls to customers.If you get a call from any representative “directly” from us - it’s a scam!If you are asked to pay before you get any money – it’s a scam! If it’s a call from a “collection” for us – It’s a scam! CashAdvanceUsa.net provide lenders services for you to talk to and to choose your loan that is right for you, Do not be fooled by scammer’s and big words. So I called Dexter back and told him all of this and he still threatened me and then hung up. I am upset at the fact that he even knew my personal information. I am not sure what to do?

I received a call from1-[protected] this week and [protected] last week. with the same scam mentioned by all these other posts. This time his name was Donald, it was a different name last week. Calling from the "collections investigations bureau" which doesn't exist. I could tell he was full of ###, so now I call him back about every 20 to 30 minutes just to talk about whatever. These guys are dumb. So please feel free to call the above phone numbers as often as you can.
