US Cash Advance
Scam

As many others, I was also contacted at home and at work by someone telling me of a legal matter.

Steven Mark - 877-516-9379 - caller with a thick foreign accent and broken English

They said I was sued and if I did not take care of the matter, law officials would come to my work and home.

When I called the number to promptly try to clear up the matter, I was told I had defaulted on a pay day loan with their parent company US Cash Advance. They said I was being sued for 3 counts of criminal fraud and if I make a payment they could work a settlement. He could not give any details about the debt. He had my name, work and cell number, my ssn, email address and bank account. I had a pay day loan but had paid it back some time ago. He seemed to insist on a payment while I was on the phone claiming the court fees would total up over $3000. The case was going to court tomorrow and the only way to stop it was to make a payment right then. I told him I needed to confirm with my husband, but he didn't seem satisifed with that.

Since then, I researched the company, found out it is a SCAM and reported it to the FTC - 877-382-4357. I have a fraud alert on my accounts thanks to Trans Union - 800-680-7289.

I will look for a place to post the wav file of the initial voice mail.
