My mother received a call at her home for me from a so called Agent Brown and he provided a court docket number and advised I could return the call or would be sued in court. Unlike most of the complaints on here, I know I owe this payday loan from 2005 and as of right now have no funds to pay them. I called them back and spoke w/this so called agent and asked what court is this docket number from being I live in Dallas, Texas and asked for the name of the original loan company. Of course he couldn't provide either. I then advised him I would be contacting the Attorney General and the FCC to file a complaint. It's not illegal to owe money, nor is it illegal for them to contact me regarding the debt but it is illegal to mis-represent yourself, not provide your company name and other info needed to validate the debt. If they call you I suggest you do the same.

    Court proceedings will be issued within 14 days from the date of this letter if the account has not been settled. You will be prosecuted for Following Allegations;

    •         Bank Fraud

    We are here by to inform you that you are going to be legally prosecuted in the Court House within couple of days. Your SSN is put on hold by US Government, so before something goes wrong we would like to notify you about this matter. It seems apparent that you had chosen to ignore all our efforts to contact you in order to resolve your debt with your Payday Services. At this point you had made your intentions clear and leave us no choice but to protect our interest in this matter.

    UNITED LEGAL INVESTIGATION BUREAU HAS STATED 3 SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS AGAINST YOU AND THEY ARE: *(1) VIOLATION OF FEDERAL BANKING REGULATION * *(2) COLLATERAL CHECK FRAUD * *(3) THEFT BY DECEPTION * If we do not hear from you within 48 hours of the date on this letter, we will be compelled to seek legal representation from our in-house attorney. We reserve the right to commence litigation for intent to commit wire fraud under the pretense of refusing to repay a debt committed to, by use of the Internet. In addition we reserve the right to seek recovery for the balance due, as well as legal fees and any court cost incurred.

    *WE HAVE ALL THE RIGHTS RESERVED TO INFORM TO FTC & YOUR EMPLOYER AND BANK ABOUT THIS FRAUD.* 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.

    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 lawsuit will be the next step which will be amounting to $4447.25 and will be totally levied upon you and that would be excluding your attorney charges and the due amount pending on your name.

    AGAIN IF YOU WANT TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER, THEN CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY THRU E-MAIL OR CALL US DURING WORKING HOURS ON  +1 719.966.4333  (From Monday To Friday 09:30 AM to 05:00 PM EST)

    They can call me all day long with the TCPA violations set at $500.00 a call. Please call ACS. If you really want to get rid of them there is 4 little letters you can say and that will end it. "T.C.P.A."  I guarantee you will never hear from them again.

    got the same email on 06/25/2015. I told them to take me to court and that they were in no way capable of garnishing my wages since they weren't with the federal government. the rep started to get upset with me so I explained to him that I would be contacting local and federal law enforcement. he shut up quick and got off the phone. too bad good people fall for their scare tactics.....

    As we put your SSN into our National CheckingDatabase System, we found that you have been never charged for a fraud activity & that is the reason Court has decided to give you a chance to take care of this issue outside the Court without having a report on your Credit History and SSN. Now if you want to take care of this issue than you have to pay an out of Court Restitution Amount which includes the late payment charges, penalty charges, interest rate on the loan amount and actual loan amount = Restitution Amount which is $795.67 or else the lawsuit amount which is about $3903.86 WILL BE DOWNLOADED AGAINST YOU. If you want to settle this matter today itself, then you can get some percent deduction on the Restitution Amount and you can take care of this issue by making the payment of the Settlement Amount today. You have to send us a promissory note to stop your case file temporarily out of the court house. So get back to us ASAP.

    pissed off
    I have been receiving these e-mails on a regular basis, sometimes 4 times a day.  I do owe a payday loan, but I canot get a company name out of this guy (Michael Miller)  He was using e-mail address acs.legaldepartment.usa.com but has since changed to acs.legaldepartment10@gmail.com.  When I questioned this he sais it was due to hackers.  And what company uses gmail??  Doesn't it usually have the business name - @acs.com?? Of course each e-mail is new and not a reply to my questions.  I have requested something in writing but of course that didn't happen.  Now he wants me to purchase a Tax Pay voucher to send money.  Stupid me kept replying back to his requests because I do not want to get arrested.  I beleive the date on this "docket" is for 2014 and I did not take a loan in 2014.  I'm sure I'll get more e-mails, which I am now going to ignore.....

    This is the scam that I got in my email. and if ACS was really trying to reach me then they would have used their company email address and not an email address. I responded to the foolishness and asked for a name and a badge number for my records and they responded with we will contact you in a month to collect your payment via email. Do I look like a dummy? Nope, they better get somewhere, I will be reporting them to gmail and my local authorities.

      Just letting you know and everyone know that these are all scams and to be ignored.  If they continue, contact your attorney general's office and your local FCC.  Yes, the FCC.  Because they are using an electronic source for their extortion emails, this is a federal crime they are doing.  By federal law, IF you really did owe any money, then by law they MUST contact you in writing via United States Postal Services.  They MUST have a tax id number and a corporate identification number, which they are required by law to give to you.  They CANNOT freeze any account, only your banking institution can do that and they can only do that because of taxes being owed and not any other debt.  Also, all this would have to go through the courts with you appearing to plead your case.  The last 4 digits of your social security number is public info, believe it or not.  If they say you owe the loan, request copies of the original documentation of the loan which, by law, they must have, and send them to you.  But, I said all that to say these are scams!!!!  They will try to scare you to death, but ignore them!

    I recieved the same email. I have did a payday loan before but I paid them off. The crazy thing in this email is that they had my full s.s # in my credit union that I do not bank with anymore. But still believing it's a scam.
