My husband has been receiving voice mails for some time from a gentleman with a very heavy indian accent. He never leaves a number and it always shows up as a series of 0's on our caller ID.
Today, for the first time my husband actually spoke to this man who claimed at first he was an employee of Cashnetusa and that we had taken out a pay day loan in 2007. He told us the loan was for $350 and that with fees was now $950. We have NEVER taken a payday loan from anywhere. When my husband asked for a specific date the man became agitated and told him he would be arrested, that he was filing papers with the court house at 6pm tonight and he would have to appear in court by 11am tomorrow morning in CA. We live in Ma!
He then went on to say that my husband was being investigated for criminal activity, he wishes him luck and only god could help him now. However, he did leave my husband with a phone number to call him back at should he want to settle this debt over the phone. SO, I called cashnetusa myself. I was told this man was a fraud. I then called the number myself and when the man answered he said the name of the business was something I could not understand, although I did manage to recognize the words legal and services, he then demanded to know who I was, told me I had no right to call him, and not to call again.
So, I called back a bit later from a different phone. Told him I was calling on behalf of a client and wanted to settle the debt. He was more than happy to give me info on what the debt amount was. Funny thing was, I never told him WHO I was calling on behalf of, so how could he know which debt to quote? I forgot to add that this time he answered the phone as Kaplan Law Firm. He goes by the name of Mr. Jones. I called him several more times during the course of the day and each time he answered with a different business name. At first he told me he was cashnet usa. The next call he was a debt collector who bought the debt. The next call he was a law firm. BEWARE do NOT give him any info!

John Hudson/Hopkins law firm/CashAdvance
AUTHOR: Lisa d - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, January 29, 2009
They called back!!! This time the man said his name was John Hudson and he was calling from Hopkins Law Firm and that our debt was with CashAdvance. I told him I thought his name was Mr. Jones, that he was with Kaplan law firm and that our debt was with CashNetUSA. He totally ignored that question.
So, in my attempt to get as much info out of him as possible I asked him several questions. What was the amount of the loan, when was it taken, and how do I resolved this matter. Wouldn't give an answer on the first two questions but said he was going to put me on hold while he spoke with the attorney general to ask him how he wanted to proceed. Low and behold he gets back on the line and tells me that the Attorney general said he would be willing to settle with payment through a credit card and that we had to fax a letter to 213-291-2166 with the card information.
I then told him I didn't have a credit card and could I mail a payment in and that's when he became very agitated telling me he downloaded an affidavit (whatever that meant!?) and that he was going to the court house to file papers, he was going to have us arrested, blah blah blah.
So that's when I laid into him telling him that I knew he was a fraud and read quotes to him word for word from the Attorney General of West Virginia's website regarding the scam these people were running. I even quoted where the atty gen. actually names Hopkins Law Firm as being used in the scam along with their jargon of "downloading" things.
He hung up. Go figure.
