I received a threatening message on May 16th from a so-called representative by the name of "James Parker" that did not disclose the reason for the call or what organization he was calling in regards to but, I was told if I, or my attorney, chose not to call 410-775-5434 immediately after receiving this message about a personal business matter good luck to me.
I then called the number left on my voicemail. I was greeted with ACS Legal Department. I asked the person who answered the phone why was I contacted and what was the urgent business matter. He asked me in order to look up the reason for the call he had to confirm my phone number. I told him my number and he looked into "the system". I was told that I received a pay day loan from Fast Cash International in the amount of $5000 and they are in the process of suing me to retrieve the money.
I have never received any money from Fast Cash International nor have I heard of this company. For this reason, I told the rep. He had the wrong person. The representative confirmed my employer, social security number and my bank stating this is no mistake.
I asked the representative when this cash was wired to my bank account. After hesitating, he said September. Of course any date he would have said would have been ridiculous considering I have never heard of this company. I asked the rep. Where should I send my bank statement to confirm I've never received money from this company. I was told there was nothing I can do now because I was being sued.
I asked the representative why was this the first time anyone has contacted me if I owed this money. If I am being sued now, why hasn't anyone contacted me prior to it reaching the Legal Department? He told me that documentation was sent to my employer. I asked him to confirm the address. He couldn't, he only knew the organization I worked for. I ask who did you send the documentation to because I've never received a letter at work. He responded again after hesitation, "The HR Department" The representative grew angry and frustrated and hung up on me.
I called back because I realized this was a complete scam. Why would an attorney call me Saturday afternoon to speak to my lawyer as if my attorney lives with me? Why wouldn't he want to resolve the situation as oppose to pursuing a lawsuit if I told him I have documentation that proves I've never received any money from Fast Cash International? I called to back to question why would he hang up me if I am trying to gain information about this lawsuit. He hung up again.
I called back again. This time there was no introduction, just a man who clearly was irritated saying "Hello. I told him that this was nothing but, a scam and I will report you to the police. I was hung up on again.
