Received a call from an unknown number but was unable to answer. The voicemail that they left said I was being sued & charged with 2 counts of fraud for a Payday loan from 2004. She left a case number as well. The caller said that a returned phone call from myself or my attorney was mandatory, however legal proceedings would happen with or without my cooperation. Upon returning the call, I was transferred to the "legal department"...but then informed my "case manager" was on a conference call, so the person who answered my initial call was "authorized to handle the matter". They were INSISTENT upon my verifying my SSI# before giving me any information. When I refused, they recited an out of state former address, my current address, my phone number and my SSI#. They demanded I pay my now balance of $465 or else I would be taken to court. After being hung up on 3 different times when trying to find out who I can call to follow up on the court summons-paperwork, the extremely rude Samantha that I was dealing with told me that I no longer needed to contact JS Resolution Group, as I would be served with paperwork within 24-48 hours and they would "see me in court".
8 months ago, I got the very same phone call and no paperwork was ever served.
The statute of limitations on bad checks is 2-4 years in the state of California. What this company is doing is extremely illegal. Do not give them ANY personal information, especially credit card information. They are trying to scare & bully people into believing their scam. Report this company to the BBB asap & stop this harassment!
