My boyfriend was tricked today into sending money to an company called acc. They were saying he had an outstanding loan of 945.49 dollars. They said that since he didn't pay the loan that the loan company sent it to collections department and now the lawyers at the lawfirm are "incharge " of it now. So my boyfriend knowing that he has not done a lone was scarred into paying it because they said if he doesn't pay his balance that he will be taken to court. They were able to tell him his name, social, address, phone number, ect. So they convinced him into sending them his card number and picture id threw fax because they sounded legit. After my boyfriend made the payment he later called me crying saying what just happen and he didn't understand. So I asked him questions like what loan company, what emails, when did this happen, where are they from, what's the number, what's the dates and he couldn't answer me. We then went to TD bank to file a fruad claim and explained to him it sounds like a scam, his bank did see that the money was taken out but still put 900 dollars bank in his account on hold until they investigated the matter! We went back to my house and I was thinking something still isn't right! So I did the research and used the info we did have:. I typed in scam on google and I typed in mark brown which was supposidly the guy that owns this company and I found a lot of ppl talking about the same guys and how they were tricked the same way my bf was and the ppl sounded middle eastern and that was all the verification I needed. We then went to the local police station and filled a police report and explained what happen and now his case is under investigation and he has a chance of getting his money back;. I want to also get this story out there because I know we wernt the first this has happen to and we deffinatly won't be the last|. God bless! Oh and they also said they are from cali and they made him write a note apologizing to them. These ppl are sick and will pay for this!
