I recieved a call this morning waking me up because I work nights. It was a woman named Olivia Gates talking very fast telling me I was being issued a warrant on 2 counts on felony theft. I have never stolen a thing in my life so I asked what it was for. She said it was for quick cash in Colorado. I do remember doing a pay day loan but I didn't remember the details. She asked if I purposely stole money from them. I said no I had no idea I owed them money until now. She immediately said, well let me call the lawyers see if we can work out a deal. She came back not even a minute later saying she had in her hands a bond amount of $1200 dollars. But if I paid them in the next 2 hours it would only be $300. I said fine, ill give you my card information. She said it had to be paid cash over money gram. Immediate red flag. She gave me the information for the money gram to send it to ACP and the city and state was where the corporate head corters for quick cash was in jacksonville Florida. So I asked why am I send it to ACP if its corporate headcorters are for quick cash. Silence and then she said they are a sub company of quick cash. I said ok and said I needed documentation that I owe money before I pay it. She says ok I will email you. We hang up. While I'm waiting for this email, I research advanced check processing. Find hundreds of complaints on topography.com, scam.com, better business bureau, and attorney generals office. I finally receive the email 20 minutes later from an email called [email protected]. I though it was advanced check processing, not check investigative services. And its a gmail email account. I know its fraud at the point. The email contains a form saying I owe the money to check investigative services. When it was ACP that called me and who I would of put on the money gram form. So I immediately called quick cash. I asked for their corporate number. She told me they didn't have a corporate number, they are locally owned. Sob she looked up the information and I did owe them money. $200, not the $300 ACP said I owed. And they said they have never heard of either ACP or check investigative services and had never done business with them. She then forwarded me to the correct debt collect which is frontier financial. They advised me it was a Sam and legally can not threaten you or send you to jail. And would give you a two hour deadline. They said what they are doing is illegal and it wouldn't remove your debt becuase the company is not using them. They somehow get whole of your debt information and used threats, talk fast and use words you would understand to scare you into giving them money. And not just money, it had to be cash. So I paid the proper debt collector and it has been removed. He also told me to contact the attorney general, federal trade commision, better business bureau, and Florida police. I did all of that and filed complaints so this company can stop screwing hard working Americans out of their hard earned money. I then called ACP back and explained I knew and how I knew it was a scam. She then became very irrate, told me she would use the recorded information if I called the attorney general when I was never informed I was being recorded. Also illegal. Chased at me and Hung up. If you are contact by these true thieves, do not fall for it. Take the time to do proper investigating before you fork over a lot of your hard earned money. If they wanted the money so badly, they would work with you, not threaten you and go about it the legal way. Because you can sue for harrassment. |
