I want to start by saying I am supervisor at a call center and these guys are good. They use terms and phrases that are used by legitimate companies in order to make you let down your guard. They initially wouldn't tell me who they were till I verified my name and told me that because federal regulations say they can't disclose information to anyone but the account holder. This is a true statement, it is a rule, so I let down my guard. They however were not able to tell me who my debt was through originally, and told me I had to decide whether to take the settlement of $294 or have the full amount of $1255 sent to the credit bureaus right away. She got very annoyed when I put her on hold and looked up the company. She almost had me fooled till I saw the complaints on here that matched what was happening. She had way too much info, like previous jobs, family members, address and DOB. She brought up a job though that I haven't worked at in over 10 years. When I insisted the debt wasn't mine she even used empathy and tried to help me figure out who would have gotten a loan in my name and then started paying on it before stopping. If they are family I might want to take the settlement to keep them from legal trouble because if the credit bureau investigates it then they will prosecute. Was I sure it wasn't someone in my family? Shady AF, thank everyone for sharing so that I didn't get scammed.

Couldn't explain whether it was medical or credit card. I've never received any kind of bill. They said either I paid 400 towards it or my health insurance. I checked my bank statements and my health insurance and there was no payment of that amount. I also checked and had doctor's appointments on that Saturday, 2/2/2019. He couldn't give me the name of the company I owed and said it was going to go into collections within the next week but when I asked him if I could have his website since it sounded like a scam, he replied that I couldn't make a payment online. The only way I could find out what kind of bill I owed was by receiving an email from them and opening attached documents. I asked him to mail me a bill and he insisted on sending me an email document or else it was going to screw up my credit next week. After hanging up the phone and blocking the number, I checked the website and it has a "make a payment" link.

I had "Lisa" call me and say that in 2018 I took a loan out from "Cash Advance" an online company. Which I never did. She had my social, dob, addresses, and even references. When I asked what address I applied with she even had that right. She had me believing her! I just thought someone took it out in my name. Then I asked for the last 4 digits of the acct number they deposited it in and it was wrong. So I called my credit repair guy and he said companies like this pay like $20 to get your information to scare you into paying them! Dont fall for it! If you read the previous reviews she said the exact thing to me!

Got a text message from 802-227-8698 with my name and accurate address regarding my account. Called the 800 number listed in the message, got someone on the phone who said they would look up my account, but put me back in the queue for another rep, named Lisa. Lisa claimed I took out a loan in 2019 and she’s a mediator for “Personal Cash Advance” and I owe a contractual balance of over $2000, but I can settle it for a bit less than $500. She then asked if someone opened the account in my name because “I had good credit” and didn’t think I’d notice(weird for a debt collector to say that). They had my social, birthday, sister’s name, mother’s name, and a friend of mine that I listed as references. Had an email that I never had, plus one I created then abandoned, and my current email. Had 2 of my known addresses plus one in Tampa, FL(never been there), and said they did a “soft federal background check” on me for correspondence regarding the matter. She claimed that I had the funds deposited to a “prepaid debit card issued by metabank” and the autopay stopped suddenly. I haven’t used a prepaid debit card in a VERY long time.
