    I recieved a call from a Jessica Hall or Hawk (couldn't tell by her heavy accent) that I was being sued for $300 on the counts 1. being check fraud 2. being a closed checking account and the 3rd I cannot remember. It was from an online payday loan from US Payday Loans but they said they had many lenders connected to US Payday Loans but couldn't tell me exactly what lender filed the lawsuit. She then transferred me to the payments dept to offer to settle out of court or go to court. Long story short, the guy I was transferred to told me I wasn't cooperating because I knew nothing of what they were talking about and called me "DEAR"...the number that showed up on my caller ID was 760-111-1000 and the number I was told to call to pay was 760-279-3882. Is this a scam? Because when I called the 1000 number back it said my call could not be completed??

    Yes, it is a scam.  

    These are a bunch of criminals running an a phony "debt collection" extortion racket via phone from India.  

    Any debt they claim you owe is fake.  No one owes these criminals anything.  They can't do anything to you but annoy you with phone calls.

    They are just crooks running an extortion racket.  All they can do is call and threaten.

    I received calls yesterday and today from this group, supposedly the American Law Division - Mike Anderson.  Mr. Anderson also called my mother, who lives in another state.  When I called by the number given 281-763-0495 Alex Acosta answered and said that they had been retained by Cash Advance America, who owns 170 payday loan sites.  They said that I owed $5,897 for a loan that I took out in the amount of $450 in October of 2009.  He was unable to tell me exactly which site granted the loan and when asked how, if they had my bank routing and account number, they had not recaptured the repayment he was not able to answer.  Both "representatives", and I use that term loosely, spoke with very thick accents and were condescending and rude.  

    I have reported them to the IC (internet crime division) of the FBI.

    I also received a call from a guy with an Indian accent stating that his name was James Anderson. Same thing, he kept saying that I owe him some money regarding a payday loan. He also called my co-worker and told my coworker that I committed a financial fraud and that I am a thief. He left me vm on my cellphone stating that he is from Americal Law Division.He also said that if he doesn't hear from me or my attorney, he wish me good luck as the situation unfolds on me.

    Beware of phone number (281) 763-0495. This is the phone number of that James Anderson guy with Indian Accent that he says he works from Americal Law Division. He will use all kinds of threat, even call you at work, calls your friends, co-workers and tells them that you committed a financial fraud and that you are a thief.

    I too have just started receiving extremely harassing phone calls from "The American Law Division".  These calls are coming from a lady named "Michelle Williams" and she is calling my phone upwards of 10x a day and leaving a voicemail every time, saying the EXACT SAME WORDING like from a script.  Today alone (it's 11:30 am when I'm typing this), she has called my phone at 7:31, 9:29 and 9:36 am.  I was in Munich, Germany last week and she called my phone 6 times in a row from a number that showed up as 052797777.  Another number they are using is 863-614-0702 from Lakeland, FL.  I finally called them back and never could get a hold of "Michelle", but finally got someone in the "legal department" who used threats and said I was in "serious trouble" and that I was going to court to settle this issue and that a warrant had been out for my arrest for 6 months.  I told him to stop with the threats and tell me who he was "representing".  He ignored that and said that he knew the company that I worked for (which will remain nameless) and that they were going to garnish my wages. I told him to stop with the threats right then and tell me who he worked for.  He said that it was a payday loan from USA Funds and that I needed to pay right away.  I told him that I was not going to pay anything because I had never taken a loan from them.  He said he just needed my insurance information (?) so that a warrant could be served to my house (right.... if they are going to serve you with a warrant, they know how to find you and they certainly aren't going to call and tell you it's coming) and I said "Just stop with the threats right now and tell me who you are representing and I'm not paying anything until you tell me who you are".  He then got mad and said "FINE" and hung up.  Do NOT pay these people ANYTHING!

    I've been getting calls from Michelle, Nick Thomas and Scott Snyder, all with foreign accents.  Number they are calling from is 786-539-4784.  They tell me I am being sued and my soc sec# is being sued and that if I don't respond they wish me the best and God Bless for whatever happens.  When I attempted to speak, the person supposedly Scott Snyder would cut me off.  When I attempted to give my real attorney information, he was ready to hang up right now.
