While i was working my dispatcher rcalled me on a private channel to tell methat a person with an indian sounding accent called for me and told him that i needed to call them back as i had charges against me. I was baffeled at this seeing that they told this to a co-worker first off. How embarassing and i beleive illegal. They didnt leave a name or anything. I called back and the guys name was shaun but spoke bad english. He said i owed $250 on a payday loan but didnt say what kind of loan or when it was taken out or who it was for. I tried telling him that i havent taken any loans out recently and even in ny state you cannot take payday loans out from different states. I have tried to apply for them but new got one. He Tried talking over me and shouting that if i didnt pay $250 today that i would have to get legal representation from my place of employment and go to california to court. He said if i didnt show up or pay that i would then owe $8,000 to $10,000 to them instead. They had all of my infoa nd work number but i have only been at my job for 7 months and have not taken any loans out at all within a few years. I tried to but never got approved because i had no bank account. I proceeded to tell him not to talk over me while i was speaking and he kept on going. The guy on the phone then said he would call my place of employment and have me fired for fraud of a payday loan of $250 which i never even seen. He never said when it was taken out or anything. The guy told me to at least pay $100 today and $150 the next week and it will be taken care of. He then told me to fax over a paper that says i will pay. Of course now im scared i will lose my job and now people at work are being told stuff by these people. I got scared and added $100 to my prepaid card And faxed over a letter. I was told when the payment went through i would recieve a call and a email with a reciept for the payment. Well i got a call and they said it didnt go through and that i only had $98 on my card but i actually had $108. He said that they would do $95 this time and $155 the next time. So they took the money and then i never recieved any email, no reciept, no conformation number, and my money is gone. Then when i go to call back they are no longer available. I dunno who this is but i looked up the company on washington state BBB and there is no such place listed at all. I called the att general in new york state and try to get to the bottom of this because i dont wanna be scammed out on any more money. Besides they have all my information so i dont even know what to do now. And i dunno who they got all my info from but its pretty messed up to mess around with someones job and life. Usually these companys will work with you not just tell you your screwed if you cant pay upfront at that exact time and fax something. Im super pissed and i dunno what to do or if i can file a suit or something against them but im in n. Y and they are in kent, wa. Its complete harassment, and telling personal info to a third party without consent is not legal and dont say your from a law firm and then i go check the business and there is no such place. And dont threaten me of my job or that im going to own thousands of dollars for something i have no clue about... Anyone have some input
