Sonic Bank
Sound Familiar: Sonic Bank attempting to collect a debt

Eceived a phone call from a man with a very thick Indian accent claiming to be Jason White, legal representative from Sonic Cashnet Bank. He claimed I had defaulted on an internet payday loan two years ago and would have charges pressed on me in court tomorrow if I did not call him back at 714-384-9647. And do an EFT payment over the phone for $400.00 within three hours. I either had to pay, cart me off to the courthouse, where I would be charged formally with violation of federal banking regulations, collateral check fraud, and theft by deception, and ordered to pay $5000.00 plus attorney fees, court costs, processing fees, etc. I actually thought this might be real, except I hadn't defaulted on any internet loans. But, this Jason White knew the last 4 digits of my Social Security number, the last 4 digits of my checking account number, my bank name, my company's name, and my email address.

I asked for information about my 'case' and he refused to give it to me. He refused to transfer me to another person or department, and could not tell me what account or reference number this was filed under. He also refused to give me any information about the 'case', stating it was unlawful to do so. And that they had been sending me emails for a year and I had to paid, he refused to "re-send" any of the emails, claiming that it was too late and I just had to pay either by debit card or go to Walmart and get a prepaid credit card and then call him back by close of business.

It just sounds too fishy so I did the search - and found several of the same stories... Please be careful and do not give informaion out over the phone.
