- Fleetwood, PA, USA

Caller, Alex told me I owed money for Prima Belle face product I received 2yrs ago. She told me if I did not pay $125 today over the phone I could end up owing $800. Alex told me I agreed to monthly shipments of products (I did not) and I need to pay this money now. She was rude and got angry when I questioned whether she was legit due to caller ID was always different when they called.

Scammer sent a letter saying I was severely delinquent of a previous installment loan originating with EZMONEY while working for a former employer. They stated they are reviewing my account for immediate legal action (filing a lawsuit) against me of which will result in a civil court judgement which will be immediately reported to the credit bureau and will be aggressively enforced. They will also add any back interest, court costs and attorney fees and the total amount sought in the lawsuit. They said this will result in wage garnishment and/or lien against my property. They are saying the received NSF from my bank and there for it is fraudulent activity with a malicious intent to commit wire fraud. They named two family members they would subpoena to testing as witnesses against me. They then went on it was very important to pay the outstanding balance I owe immediately or I will receive a summons to appear in court. I receive the letter on January 26 with a due date of February 1 in the amount of $1639.22

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

I received a debt collection letter from Progressive Legal Group acting on behalf of EZMONEY (a subsidiary of EZCorp) collecting on an unpaid installment loan that I supposedly had taken out 10+ years ago. The letter stated that legal action would be taken against me if I did not pay on the debt that is being collected. At the time, I panicked and negotiated an amount lesser than what was originally asked thinking it was legitimate. After further research, I realized that this debt was a scam - my credit report has been impeccable for the last 10+ years so if this debt was legitimate, surely there would have been some record of delinquent debt, I do not recognize the name EZMoney/EZCorp nor have I ever done business with a pawn shop in my life. This is truly a scam and I am hoping that I will be able to get my money back that I paid and worked so hard for.

I received a letter today in the mail from Progressive Legal Group. The letter stated I owed a balance of $1,105.83 on some installment loan I made while I was working at ******** (Which I did work at several years ago).

I have never applied for any kind of loan ever from anyone, and I did not recognize the company they said I took the loan from which was EZMoney. They also referenced my deceased ex-husbands name on this letter and my other ex-husband on this letter...saying they would be called to testify against me. Both the names of my ex-husbands were correct. Their website listed on this form is www.ProgressiveLG.com with a phone number of 1-800-391-7635. They said I needed to pay this money by 2-1-24 or I will be served by the Sheriff's office. They also listed my credit score on this form of 760....which is totally incorrect. I proceeded to do some research online about this company and have found people saying it is a scam. This looked very real because they had information about me like where I used to work, my ex-husbands names, seemed to know about my house and who owns it and last 4 digits of my social security number. This really needs to be investigated.

I have received two letters from this Progressive Legal group. The first one was an attempt to collect a debt for an account from EZMONEY. (which I've never borrowed money from anyone like that before) It also mentioned a workplace that I worked at about 10 yrs. ago and said I used my husband for a reference and also listed an uncle that I've never used as a reference. This is definitely a scam and people need to be aware! I just received the second noticed and it says they will settle for about 1/3 of the debt. This is fake and sad that people have nothing better to do!

I received a letter stating that there was a severe delinquency of a loan originating with check into cash. I do not a loan out with that place in the first place. They have a case agains me for an immediate legal action. Also, saying regardless of all the past events regarding this case, they attempt to resolve this matter with me, offering me an option to settle out-of- court for amount of $395.00, which will settle my account in full.

- Des Moines, IA, USA

We received a letter in the mail indicating that my husband was being notified of a civil lawsuit and civil complaint from a loan he never opened. The loan was supposedly from an EZMONEY/EZCORP and it indicated that he was being accused of getting a loan and immediately closing an account and being flagged for malicious attempt to commit wire fraud. The phone number on the letter has no one answering phones and the address is for a US Postal Office. We contact our local police department and have reported the letter to our local Attorney General's office. I hope that people do not fall for this scam.

Letter stating that I was severely delinquent on an installment loan that I tool out with EZ Money (subsidiary of EZCorp) while employed with a company that I have work at for 10 + years. They referenced both my current spouse and my ex-spouse, who they say are listed as references, as witnesses they will call to testify against me. I would NEVER list my ex as a reference for ANYTHING, let alone financial matters!. The letter accused me of immediately closed or changing my bank account that an ACH payment was to draw from and a civil court judgment was being sought for fraudulent activity. They also claim they will seek legal fees and courts costs if I do not immediately submit payment via mailed check or by going to their website.
