Protection Legal Group, Mark D Guidubaldi PLG Servicing scammed out of $20,414.70 Schaumburg Illinois

We were contacted by Protection Legal Group to help renegotiate a loan we had with a large lender.  They told us they could lower our payoff with the lender. We agreed to there service and started to deposit $1076.95 per week into an escrow account setup by Global Client Solutions{GCS}. We continued to make these payment for approximently 6 months.  We paid into this account $23,692.90. On 01/17/2018 we recieved a letter from Global Client Solution saying, Quote   {This Letter is to inform you that the relationship between Global Client Solution and Mark D Guidubaldi and associates- PLG Servicing LLC Has been terminated}.

The letter went on to say that they are sending me a refund check for the money in my escrow account. One day later a check arrived at my office from Global for the amount of $3,278.20.  I quickly called global to find out where the balance of my money is and was told that Protection Legal Group{PLG} withdrew the funds fom my account. Global supplied me with every transaction date that PLG took money from the account. I then contacted PLG to find out where my money is and was told they took my money for fees. Since hiring this company they have never once contacted our creditor.

I then requested from PLG that they supply me with the names and outcome from there conversation with my creditor but they have never responded back to me. My acct rep was Carly Higueros. She is also involved in this scam up to her ears.  So At this point we have been SCAMMED out of $20,414.70.  I Have contacted various law enforcement agencies about this.{  FL attorney generals office, FBI, Consumer financial protection Board{CFPB}, Illinois state attorney general, Illinois state bar association as MR Guidubaldi{Owner} is an attorney. These agencies have been a lot of help. 

However yesterday I contacted the Federal Trade Commission{FTC} and was informed by a wonderfull FTC employee that it is there office that handles these type of issues. She has instructed me to do this ripoff report hoping that the rest of you that have also be scammed by this company will call there office and file your complaints. If they see more complaints on this company they will precede to file a class action suites against them.  Back in 2010 GCS was fined 7 million dollars by the CFPB and 6 million of that was returned to customers.  I respectfully ask all of you to call the FTC and file your colplaints, there is no time frame on recovering your money. PLEASE CALL THE FTC NOW!!!!
