I have received approximately 30 calls from some company claiming to be "Legal Department" calling on behalf of Cash Advance USA, stating that I am being sued for "fraud".  They call my cell and work phone from different telephone numbers, and I have spoken to them twice.

I am assuming this "Legal Department" is a call center in India, as the callers, and "Supervisors" that I spoke to twice have very thick accents, and I can hear many people speaking in the background.

The first time I spoke to someone was about a month ago, and when they told me they were calling to inform me of a lawsuit against me, and wanted my legal counsel's name and address (scare tactics, I assume), I informed tham, that althought I filled out information on a few Payday Advance sites, I never went through with submitting the application, or accepting any loan payments.  If Cash Advance USA believes differently, they need to send me something in writing staing how much the loan was, when it was paid to me, and how it was paid to me.   The "supervisor" could answer none of these questions for me.  He said his job was to inform me of the lawsuit. 

I received another call today from a "supervisor", giving me the same speech I got a month ago, and that "they don't have time" to serve me in person with paperwork.  I explained that they had been calling me for a month, and had plenty of time to send me something in the mail.   I suppose they believe that people they harrass will have no idea how the actual American Judicial system works.     When I explained, that I had not been served with any papers whatsoever, he had no reply other than, "we will sue your employer too".  What?!?!?  That doesn't even make sense.

I wish I had a valid phone number for them to add to this website, but when I attempt to call the phone numbers back that show up on my caller ID, I get a "phone number not in service" recording.  Interesting.

It's nice to see I'm not alone with all these harassment calls.  This all sounds so familiar.  I need to find out how to stop the calls.  It's getting ridiculous not to mention worrisome as far as my job goes.  I kinda need my job.  Big lesson learned here though, that's for sure.

These scum bags are just scammers. There is no lawsuit nor any company..  If you like have fun witht them.  Threaten them back, use a whistle or other loud instrument when they call - anything you can think of - Good luck!

Received email from Cash Advance USA

AUTHOR: Anonymous - (United States of America)

Cash Advance USA responded to an email I sent them, inquiring as to why these ACS Legal people were calling for a loan that I never asked for, nor received.  They confirmed that these people are scammers.  I called ACS back at 347-927-1843, and after telling them that I am aware that they are confirmed scammers,and they will never get a dime out of me, I was told to "get lost", and they hung up on me!   What a waste of my time these people have been!  Thank you for this website though, I'm glad to see that I'm not alone.  I urge anyone harrassed by these people to call them back at 347-927-1843, and give 'em heck!

Response I received from Cash Advance USA:

Good day,

According to our records we do not have an active loan or application under Lynne xxxx.  We strongly believe they are scammers using our name to do this fraudulent activity. We assure you we do not proceed this way.
You may inform them, you have spoken to us and that we assure you in this email you do not have any pending loans or application.

We have our local authority investigating this situation. You have every right to go and do what ever it takes to have these people stop contacting you. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Have a nice day,
