NCC Investigations Harry Miller Fraudulent Collection Scam Marietta, Georgia

28th of Jan, 2013 by User536504

On January 28, 2013, I received a voicemail from Harry Miller, purporting to be some type of enforcement agency. In the recording, he indicated that I had a pending case for fraud and theft, and I should get back to him within 24 hours. He left a similar message on my VM on Jan. 29, 2013. Upon investigating the company, NCC Investigative Services, I learned that they had a history of intimidation and harassment in dealing with consumers. It turns out that they are bottom feeders, buying defaulted debt from payday loan companies. Therefore, I researched Indiana Code regarding the regulation of such companies, and learned that it is illegal to file a criminal charge or intimate that a charge will be filed in the event of a default. Therefore, what they are doing is both illegal and a scam. Statutes regarding payment loan companies vary by state; however, according to IC 24-4.5-7-101, these companies can both be prosecuted and sued for damages for violation of these statutes. The consumer can get up to $2,000 per occurrence, plus costs and attorney fees. This company should either be shut down, or penalized and put on the straight and narrow.
