Ajike Spencer-Ade On 1/31/14, I received a threatening phone call from an Advance America representative. He state that between 2012-2013, I supposedly took out an online loan from their company. I spoke to someone who identified himself as Mark Johnson. the telephone number was 914 222-3393, ext. 299 or 211. He stated that he was from the Credit Bureau of Investigations. He was rude and very adamant that I owed his company $185.  I haver never take4n out such a loan and told him that, still he persited in threatening me with legal action. Further, he said that if he took me to court, I would nneed a lawyer who would charge me more than what he was asking. I told him that his claim was false and not to call me again. Thereafter, I looked the company up on the Internet and found that t6here are scam alerts associated with Advance America. I was lead to this web site to file a coplaint with the Federal Trade Commission. Suitland Maryland

On 1/31/14, I was contacted by phone from Advance America claiming that I had taken out an online loan for $185 from this company between 2012-2013. The man identified himself as Mark Johnson of Credit Bureau Investigations at the following telephone number: 914 222-3393 ext. 299 or 211. I told him that I had never taken out such a loan. He began to threaten me with legal action, stating that if I did not pay him immediately, he would start legal proceeding in my state. Additionally, he stated that when I was taken to court, I would need a lawyer who would charge me in excess of $185; therefore, I should elect to pay him immediately. I told him that his allegations were ridiculous and not to call me again. I went to the Internet and input the company name, Advance America. I found scam alerts about this company, along with an option to register and file a Ripoff Report with the Federal Trade Commission at the following web address: http://www.ripoffreport.com/FileReport.aspx.
