    These scams violate FDCPA all over the place, through illegal abuse and harassment, threatening to do things they can't do, and deception.  the pattern is common across all these shakedown scams, like they're using the same scripts.  It all points to fraud.
    file complaints with FTC, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and your state Attorney General.

    FDCPA requires that debt collectors respond to disputes and requests for validation, or cease collecting until they to.  NEVER pay any "debt collector" who can't prove the alleged "debt" is actually owed, by documentation obtained from the original creditor that matches your own records. If they respond to such requests with threats and abuse, you're dealing with a scam.

      Look up SGQ on ripoffreport.com replies to Typical shakedown scam..
      They have lots of complaints of "loan cramming", making deposits without authorization or agreement on loan terms, then removing money, supposedly as "interest only" so the "loan" is allegedly never paid back.  There are reports of deposits without ever applying for a loan, and also threatening collection attempts without any "loan" or deposit.

      One report suggests they're hiding in the Bahamas, or maybe behind a shell corporation there.  This is a common tactic with loan cramming scams to evade US law, but it also suggests they are probably not licensed to do business in states that require licensing.

      Contact FTC, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and your state Attorney General.
