Country: United States
Recieved a call from a man named John Nelson, with very thick accent. He put his Supervisor, Anthony Johnson, on the phone, upon my repeated request,  demanding $956 to be paid immediately to a business called Cash Advance America for an alleged loan he claimed my wife failed to pay over a year ago. Never had a loan from them, never heard of them. He said if she didn't pay today that another company called American Law Division had a "senior" attorney ready to file suit against her tomorrow in "Oklahoma Court" for over $4000 after attorney's fee's. He had the last four digits of her social security number. He never could furnish our address. He claimed her employer was also being "investigated." He also called my wife at her work place earlier in the day. He told her she had failed to take care of her business and that she would "end up behind the bars."  She continued to ask for a Supervisor and was told by Anthony that he was the Supervisor. She asked for his Supervisor because, while he claimed to be American and had an American name, his accent was so thick she could not understand a word he was saying. He then started talking really quickly and shouting. She just kept shouting back for him to put someone who could speak English on the line and he hung up.  He also told her his company had sent 18 emails that had gone ignored. ROFL! Of course, those types of emails always get deleted!  Not a letter or correspondence one.  Just the emails... which, upon sifting through my past email logs were not found.  My wife was very upset and I told her it was a scam and I'd be able to find something on the internet to prove it. Of course, I have found that proof here. You'll also note, they never put a phone number on their web sites.  I'll have to see if they keep calling before I try to take any legal action, which I doubt would do any good since they are foreigners. I suppose I'll play along and make them mad everytime they call... who know's it might be fun!

    I just got a call from this number 281 385 8228 and 281 385 8791. This guy swore to me by the many arms of Vishnu that his name was Jimmy Johnson. I called him every bald headed liar I could think to call him. He said i had borrowed like 250 bux from Cash Advance of America and I told him he smoked crack with Ganesh. I then told him where he could cram the entire country of India, including the disputed zones, with a southern accent equally as inaudible as his own.

    I have been receiving a very harrasing, nasty call from a guy, with a thick accent called Ronnie Cooper.  He is telling me that I owed money to a company called Cash Advance America and that he is an attorney and that he will be filling a lawsuit against me in Court and having a warrant for my arrest issued for failure to pay!  That I owed a cash advance company called Cash Advance America and that because I failed to pay I committed a crime that is warranted for 3 felonies! Honestly, I am shocked that this these types of criminals can do this!  I thought it was very strange that you list the same name, RONNIE COOPER!!  I will be contacting legal authorities in Florida and out of Fontana, California to trace down this guy or his associates.  I will not let this go without legal resourses.

    I AM GLAD TO SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE GETTING TREATENING CALLS FROM THESE IDIOTS.  AN IDIOT NAME JUSTIN WILLIAMS WITH CASH ADVANCE AMERICA, CALL COMES IN FROM A CALIFORNIA# 909 565 4286.  THREATENED TO HAVE SOMEONE SHOW UP @ MY WORK PLACE AND ARREST ME FOR BANK FRAUD MONEY LAUNDERING AND SEVERAL OTHER THINGS. WAS TOLD I OWED THEM $450.00. EVERYTIME I TRY TO QUESTION HIM, HE WOULD TELL ME THAT ONCE THEY HAD THE MONEY THEY WOULD SEND ALL THE INFORMATION TO ME BY MAIL TO MY HOME ADDRESS. (JUST SO HAPPEN THEY CONVENTIONALLY HAVE HOME ADDRESS, PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT, LAST 4-DIGITS OF SS#). WOULD NOT TELL ME WHICH ACCOUNTS THEY TRIED TO DEBIT MONEY FROM. BY THIS TIME I'VE GOTTEN REALLY PISSED-OFF & TELL THEM TO DO WHAT THE F--- THEY WANT TO AND I'LL SEE THEM IN COURT.

    Same thing has happened to me today.  Heavy Indian accent.  claimed borrowed money from Cash Advance America.  I have reported to the Moreno Valley Better Business Bureau, local County Sheriff's Office, Riverside County, CA Sheriff's Office, local Fox network, Federal Trade Commission and others.  New name: Steve Jones says he is with Dan Morgan attorney's office.  New number: 951-489-0223.  I called Daniel Morgan's office in Ventura- no such employee.  I called local and Riverside authorities to see if there was a warrant for my arrest. No.  If anyone can find the address for the phone line you got him.  It is a Verizon land line in Moreno, CA.

    The same jack-hole called me again today. Richard Anderson 786-205-5766. I told him I was aware this is a scam and I have reported him to the FBI and my local police. He called a friend of mine threatening her if she didn't get a hold of me to call him. I told the jerk that I also informed my aunt who is a Superior court judge in Pa, and if he calls again I am pressing charges and hung up on him. I called my local police and had an officer come out to my house. He tried calling the number they called from and it is now disconnected. The FTC knows this is going on but they can't find these people. Spread these stories around, and we'll run these people down. Come to find out several of my friends are going through the same thing, and advised them of what to do. Good luck to all out there. Hope these guys leave me alone.

    Keep getting calls everyday from 323-417-0025 with heavy Indian accent. Calls 3 times in a row and after the 3rd time finally leaves a message. Keeps saying the same thing that I am going to be sued if I don't call back within 24 hours. Funny been calling off & on for the past 6 months with the same threat. No idea who this place is, so I keep ignoring all the calls.

    I just received a call from these people claiming that I owe 981.00 that I could pay right at that moment but if I couldn't pay that I would sued in court for over 8000 dollars. I remember applying but I also remember not getting approved. Now all of a sudden they gave me a loan. . These same people called me at my job and told my boss this nonsense and got me fired. But that time the whole court thing was in California now Texas. If anyone knows how to put a stop to this nonsense please email me at sharrona4@aol.com. they almost got to me this time. Thank you.

    I just got the same call that all of you are describing.  I supposedly owe them $788.89 and if I did not pay today I would owe them $3788.89.  I told them that I wanted the number to the company and he refused to give it to me.  I then  called my bank and they do not have any transactions from this company either trying to take money from my account or me receiving monies from them.  I tried to call them back after I confirmed this information with my bank and spoke to a woman this (the first time Jack Thompson called me and then he gave me the number to Ronnie Cooper, the atty who is filing 3 felony charges against me for defrauding the company and the police are coming to my workplace on Monday to arrest me for these felonies for monies I never received) time and I told her that I spoke with my bank and never have I had a transaction from this company as a credit or a debit, the witch (I am being nice) hung up on me.  I have tried to call back several times (909.565.4286) after that and I either get hung up on immediately or I get a voicemail box is full.  Don't fall for this.  I am going to call the BBB to file a complaint and if they call me again, although I doubt they will now that they know that I verified rather I received monies from this company or not and I have not.  If they continue to call me after this then I will file a harrassment suit as well.

    Also, almost forgot, he said that he worked out of the Municipal Court building at 1945 S. Hill St. in Los Angeles, CA.  I did a google search of the address and that is traffic court and although he called me from 909.565.4286 and that telephone number is 213.742.1884.  So I then called the courthouse which they supposedly work out of and was on hold forever and then I had to hang up, but I will still be trying to call them to find out what exactly they can tell me, I will also try to call that company back to try to ensure that they do not call me again.

    Wow, I just got a call from a Calvin Watson at cash advanced america. He told me a lawsuit was being put against me and that I have to pay 312 dollars. This was very confusing to me because I have never in my life taken a loan, but he appeared to know alot about me. He had a very heavy accent which I knew he couldn't be from america. So at this point in time I was very suspicious and told him I'm 20 years old, I've never taken a loan I pay everything in cash. He told me I'm lying and trying to hide it I'm a frajulent and the cops are going to come to my house and take me to prison. Now i'm young, but I"m not stupid so I then said "Go ahead, send the cops sir, because legally you cant be arrested just to collect a debt. Atleast without collectors trying to contact you or having appeared in court." Which neither of those ever happened, he then began yelling at me and I did so back. I said a few curse words and he threatened me with recording it and showing it to the cops. I then again told him feel free, I have the right to freedom of speech and your putting false accusations against me. This calvin man was becoming very upset so I told him that I would hire myself a lawyer and pay top dollar as well because I wouldn't pay any amount of money to a company thats just scammin away peoples hard earned money. CASH ADVANCE AMERICA is a big scam. Noone believe them, especially when they have an accent. He even admitted to me he was from america, and I was extremely rude to him and told him that if he was from america then hes obviously here illegally and i should be calling the cops on him to get him deported. The number he called me with was 845 445 2304 adn then the number he gave me that went to their supposed "accounting" 713 900 9402. Just so other people dont have to deal with these same things...

    I have been receiving calls from a heavy accented man @ 323-417-0025. He is even calling my work number. Stating that they are going to send out a warrant for my arrest if I don't pay a certain amount. I continue to keep ignoring the phone calls and my supervisor is aware. He leaves a message telling me that his name is James Scott.

    I am so glad that there are so many people getting the same calls. I am so tired of these stupid people. When I call the number back it actually just has a busy tone. I was really scared that I would be thrown in jail for something I did not do, but it is comforting to know that it is just a scam. I have had my identity stolen 3 times. I just hate being harrassed in this manor.

    I just got a call from the same person but this time he didn't give me a name just demanding that I owe him 398.35 for a chah advance loan, I told him I didn't take out a loan and would like to speak to a manager, he said "what for" I told him because i dont belive you and I want to know why you have all of my information to the T, he said "what for" at that point I was on fire, I just keep on asking for a Manager, he then said if I still wanted to see my kids I better pay up or I will go to jail and this call is being monitor and thats when it hit me your a fraud, so I played along a bit and asked who do I send it to, and so on and there he changed his behavior Money Gram was his choice and the phone # is from New York. so dont have a panic attack like I did...it's not worth it just hang up or block the call.
