Received a letter today that I have a civil lawsuit for an installment loan that I didn’t pay or or was return while I was or am employed at employer. I do not recognize the name EZMONEY. Also they state they would reach out to the following references on orig application which one is my father who has been deceased for 14 years. The other person is a lady who was married to my dad’s brother when I was a child and have not seen her over 25 years. I tried to find out who what this letter is about due to the fact they are trying to garnish my wages or take me to court.

The scammer used the following information on the letter:

Full Name, Address, Current place of employment, Last 4 numbers visible of Social Security Number, My Transunion Credit Bureau Credit Score, and the names of family members they said were references on the "loan" that never actually happened. This information was correct, I do not know how they obtained it.

Scammer said a loan was made in the amount of $951.42 via EZ Money. No Such loan was made. The documents referenced a case filed with the US District Court against me. In which there were two charges 1) the repayment of the loan plus interest, court costs, and attorney fees, and 2) malicious intent to Commit Wire Fraud. The letter was very threatening in nature and demanded immediate payment.

My Husband received a threatening letter from "Progressive Legal Group" stating notification of Lawsuit & Civil Complaint on a loan that they stated he was delinquent from a company called EZMONEY. They listed a previous employer that he has not worked for in 10 years. In the letter it has the last 4 digits of his social security number and his so called credit score. It threatens that if $1288 is not paid by due date then they will take legal action which will result in civil court judgements and report to the credit bureau. They also threaten to garnish wages and because the so called bank account was closed that the loan payments were suppose to come out from. They have noted your case with Fraudulent activity with malicious intent to commit wire fraud. They also threaten to subpoena my husband's previous wife you passed away 11 years ago and his daughter -in-law. They have a contact # 1-800-391-7635. The address when you look it up is a postal office . This is scam and these criminals need to be arrested .If you are elderly or not aware of the scams that happen , you could easily be frightened and pay because of the threats in this letter . THIS IS A SCAM!!!!!

I received a letter in the mail today from this “Law Firm”, stating they’ve been given (transferred) my debt from Aegis legal Group and can settle my account from $6,243.79 to $495.00 due to a NSF Fraud. If do not take action by Feb 2nd, they will attempt to sue me. This is apparently from Check n Go, and I did do business with them, but nearly 10 years ago and I’m definitely past the statute of limitations for being able to be sued.

The font on some of this letter is visually fuzzy and it lists my credit score on it at the bottom. They’ve never appeared on my credit report and I took care of my debt with Check n Go, so this is definitely not legit.

I received a letter stating that Progressive Legal Group has filed a lawsuit against me for NSF fraud on a loan with EZMoney for $1,319.67. They had they last four digits of my SS number. They also said that they were going to call my father and mother as witnesses and listed their names, but my father died in 1984 and mother died in 2019. I've never had a loan with EZMoney. I did not call the phone number or went to website. I know this is a scam.

The scam letter states the recipient has an outstanding loan from EZMONEY/EZCORP and is subject to a civil judgement represented by Progressive Legal Group. It further states the recipient was charged with NSF of more than $100 as they took out a loan and then closed the account that was supposedly being used to make the payments. The recipient has never had a loan through this company and has no association with Progressive Legal. The letter alluded to 'facts' about the recipient but information such as references, previous address, etc. are all accessible via public records.

The loan company is EZ Money loan company. The created a fraudulent loan against me many years ago after stealing my information. There was later a class action lawsuit against them and they were ordered to pay back money to victims. I just received a letter claiming to represent them in a lawsuit against me it I don't pay them over $900. They are also threatening to affect my credit with hard inquiries as well as a lien against my property. They also threatening wire fraud. I know all of these are scar tactics, but they have my personal information.
