Country: United States
Received this email from some fraud company. Will contact local authorities along with the BBB. I also have connections to several attorneys and private investigators so it would be in the best interest of these scammers to discontinue any further contact with me>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Monday, May 14, 2012 10:15 AM This is in reference to your Account number 3841577  with ACS in order to notify you that after making several calls to you on your phone number, we were not able to get hold of you. So the legal department of ACS has decided to mark this case as a flat refusal and press charges against you.



Your account with ACS is in Final Collections. According to our records, your outstanding balance is $885.26.

Do revert back if you want to get rid of these legal consequences and make a payment arrangement within the next 48 hours or else the case will be downloaded against you.



As we have shared with you in previous letters, read your loan agreement; the next step is clearly defined. It could cost us both a great deal of time and money; you can avoid this by taking care of this now.



The opportunity to take care of this voluntary is quickly coming to an end. We would hate for you to lose the option of resolving this before it goes to the next step which is a Lawsuit against you, but to do so you must take immediate action.



It is quick and easy:
Grab your debit card and call us or e-mail us right now in order to make a payment and freeze down this case.



Contact us on 1-585-326-0000.



If you do not take immediate action:



We will be forced to download this case against you and once it is downloaded the creditor has entire rights to inform your employer and your references regarding this issue and the law suit will be the next step which will be amounting to $4728.35 and will be totally levied upon you and that would be excluding your attorney charges and the due amount pending on your name $885.26





Thanks for being our customer,

ACS Legal Department

    That's funny, mine is strickingly simular to the one you have. Notice teh language they use, "freeze down and download this acse against you" Clearly, this does not even sound like a profesional letter from anywhere. Besides, stuff like this is never emailed out right directly to you, usually you are asked to follow a link where you enter your information where you have an account. I just know it does'nt look real, feel real or even make sense for that matter.
    THEY NEVER EVEN MENTIONED MY NAME, NOT EVEN ONCE.... YEAH RIGHT!!!!

      For one tell them it is a federal offense to threaten your social security number, which it is, and if they can not communicate with you in writing, which you can view on the FBI's website is also a federal offense. You'll never get them to stop emailing people and threatning harm to others you can let them know you are not ignorant to the laws and let them know you are not going to be bullied into extortion. Under federal law if they are a legit collection agency they can not do what they are doing. Secondly it is not a criminal offense to default on a loan it is civil. If they have your social security number the FBI recommends contacting your bank,credit card companies and also contacting Experian or the other credit reporting agencies and reporting potential fraud. I am not a lawyer but a Criminal Justice student and have extensive experience in dealing with these people. I have question them on the phone and called their bluff. The said they were calling from Washington D.C which the caller ID said Washington alright but not D.C, but Washington state.Then as they say down south the man started "crawfishing" or back peddling then his story got all messed up because to prosecute you in civil court they have to site Torts I asked him what Tort he had basis on attempting to collect he didn't have a clue what that was. Anyways the story got to where it was California law. I blew his mind knowing the laws also he said they represented the U.S Attorney's office which again is a federal offense impersonating a federal officer. The U.S Attorney only prosecutes federal crimes not payday loans. Just do these easy things and they should stop bothering you if not contact the IC3 online and report them. They want to play rough get tough with them and show them your not a push over.
