Country: United States
I got this email and have no idea what to do. I have not taken out a loan from this place.

Your delinquent account with Cash Net USA has been referred to my office for collection action. You are currently several payments behind on the above referenced account. The total outstanding amount on this account is $529.99.

I have been instructed to bring legal action against you as may be necessary, which may result in Judgement.

The file indicates that you have failed or refused to pay the above claim even though it appears just, owing, and correct.

You are hereby further advised that if payment is not received within 2 business days of the date of this letter, suit in small claims court may be commenced against you forthwith and without further notice for the amount indicated above, together with prejudgment interest. Instead of small claims court, this matter may be referred to our attorney for suit in municipal court.

As I am sure you are aware, if this matter goes to suit, all court costs, process server's fees, sheriff's fees, attorney fees where permitted, and other post judgment costs will be added to the amount that you already owe.

You can avoid the unnecessary inconvenience and added expenses of a lawsuit by making immediate payment to us. For any queries feel free to call us on 1-302.387.0023




Sincerely,



Matt Williams,

Collections Manager

    I am going through the same thing.  Everytime I get an email, it from a different perso.  The emails read like some foreigner is talking:  misspelled words, verb tenses, etc.  Doesn't sound very professional.  Thay asked me to send the money through MoneyGram and then send them an email with my name, address, SSN, phone number the amount I paid and the MoneyGram reference number.  If they have my email address from the original debter, why don't they have my address?  I saved every email they sent me and my replies to them.  I get about  6-7 emails per day.  Taking them to my lawyer.

    Hi, i got this message also from my spam folder with subject 'payment declined'. I noted that this is the same exact letter word for word including the amount being sent to anyone by a certain 'matt williams'. I clicked on the link he indicated on the email but luckily, it is not clickable. that's why i googled the message and the name matt williams and have found this site. So, please beware...

    I rec'd an email from a Sarah and she told me to contact a Scott Jordan to have my case resolve. they left me no phone number in that email. I email this Scott guy and he told me to go to a Money Gram location and email him when I get there and he will send instructions on what to do. I asked for a phone number and I got nothing. then I get another email saying that i have one hour to email them back. I called a lawyer and she told me this is a scam. Don't respond back to him and for me to call the police and see what they say also.

    i got the same email today, i replied back and asked them to forward me information so that I can file a police report for possible identity theft since i had no knowledge of the PDL company... Ms. Idalia Smith replied back with the following: "AdvanceCash Experts is a parental Payday loan company which owns and operates on morethan 350 payday loan websites. We are talking about the loan amount of $400 that you took with the company, they do have a signed copy of the contract which is signed under your e-mail address, also would like to mention your computer's IP address and your SSN was also traced when you were signing the contract with the company.

    The company have more than 14 technical evidence in order to prove the money was successfully deposited into your bank account which is a checking account.

    I've reported with the FTC, Attorney General and BBB.  FBI is next.

      Hopefully you were laughing in her face or or ear. You should have said that you are doubting the validity of this debt. In the the Federal Government Fair Debt Collection Act you are requesting copies of those documents.  All the other 350 stores BS is all information readily available on the Internet.

      Do not pay them request paperwork that under the law the HAVE to provide to you upon your request. Ask.them to.mail it to you home address. Don't provide  it to them, if they are ligitimate they will have it already. They are playing to peoples fears,  play their fears against them, by asking for copies of things you are legally allowed to request and they are legally bound to provide to you upon request. It's simple don't fall for it, they are assuming that if you got a payday loan then you don't have money for an attorney.

    Annoyed
    Since November 3, 2015,I have received 1-2 emails a day from Ace Cash Express,settlement-ace.com,ACS,Inc and all are threatening legal actions on loans that they refuse to prove even existed. I make copies and give to my attorney.One went so far to send me a "certificate of deposit" which was full of spelling errors.Each time I get a notice it is for a different amount and emails are never specifically directed towards me. Nothing but a scam.

    I just received a disturbing email from Katherine Hernandez from Dennis Law Group.  It states that a legal proceeding was issued to my docket number with one of the Cash Advance Inc. and that they have decided to mark this case as a flat refusal and are going to press legal charges against me.  Loan amount is $300 (amount outstanding is $786).  I was really upset and disturbed over this harassing email.  There is no contact information except for me replying back to the email.  It's not even signed at the end of the email, just ends in Regards.  It's just disturbing, but has to be a scam... Thanks.

      I received the exact same email you did 1/15/16 and it unnerved me quite a bit because the were threatening to garnish my wages. The amount was the exact same as yours and it also stated further down in the email that it could subsequently end up being 6300.00 in fines and court costs. Has to be a scam cause I have never had a pay day loan. Still kinda has me on edge. :(

      "Katherine Hernandez" from dennis-law-group sent me the SAME email. The amount is different, $410 on my email. Same ending as well, no name no phone numbers. "You are going to be legally prosecuted in the Court House within a couple of days." I know it's a scam, but like you, just needed to search and find out I was not the only one.

      Did anything ever come from this email from Katherine Hernandez.  I just received an email from her that was the same exact thing as you got on 01/2016. Just checking

      Ask yourself, have I been served a summons, have I been contacted legally. If the answer is no to the first one then it's a scam. If the answer to both is no it confirms it's a scam. THEY CANT GET A DOCKET NUMBER UNTIL THEY HAVE FILED A LAWSUIT.  YOU HAVE TO BE NOTIFIED THAT YOU ARE BEING SUED.  In most states a small claim is limited to 5,000 dollars. In civil actions it would be a docket number indicating what jurisdiction would be hearing the case. It's usully the court closest to your home. Don't pay them one dime, especially if it's a monew pack they want, no legitimate company would have you pay in a money pack or through Western Union use common sense when getting an email like this.

    Ive received emails from a couple different people and they tell me I have a loan outstanding for $400 and I need to pay it by April 1st or theyre going to report me to the FBI. Then go so far as to tell me to buy a reload card, load $400 then send them the 10 digit code. What type of fools they must be to think people are dumb enough to fall for the biggest money scam known. PLEASE, I dont think so.
