Hello my name is *** *** and I have been receiving emails from companies claiming that I owe money from payday loans . These emails have been coming to me through my iPod since 2013 and I have been called through my home phone twice. Now the 2 people who called had foreign accents and 1 of them was very rude to me telling me that I would be arrested at my job and that scared me so I paid. When I asked when did I get the loan he said that it was deposited into my account in February so I got a print out for that month I didn’t see no deposit of any kind. I tried to tell him that but he insisted that I pay or go to jail. I want to let you know I’m no thief. After the calls I started receiving the emails all stating that my account is 60 days past due. The amount that I owed from all of the emails was always over $900. I responded to every email asking them what date did I receive the loan and what the account was. I figured that I was within my right to ask since I’m being accused of defaulting on a loan or was I wrong to ask. I was told by one of the companies that it was me because they had my ip number from my computer which I’m sure that it’s not hard to get. The truth be told I’m not very computer literate. When I needed to use the computer my daughter would have to help me with the more difficult stuff on the computer. With the threat of going to jail, calling my job to inform my employer of fraud on my part. So that really scared me, so I did pay. I think I paid off maybe 6 of these loans that I was accused of receiving. I work part time and I receive partial social security. With my income I wouldn’t continue to apply for payday loans knowing that I can’t afford to pay back, I’m not stupid. I would get the emails like every 2 months on my iPod. Like I said before that I asked for the month that this money went in and what the account number was I got no response yet they are so certain that it is me. The one that said that it was me I have paid $675 of the 989.50 that they said I owe which still leaves a balance of $314.50 but I can’t pay anymore not with my income and knowing I didn’t apply for nor received a payday loan. I was getting so tired of these emails that I sent this information to a *** ** ***, Esquire to find out what is going on or to tell these people to leave me alone. I just received another one saying I owe $825 I think. Maybe you guys can help me by making them leave me alone. Please I can’t take no more. The names are,(AndersonLawGroup),(NCSLawGroup),(ACSIncorp),(AceCashServices). Those are the names of the companies that have sent me the emails to my iPod touch. I truly hope that you can help or tell me something. Like I said in this statement I’m not a thief and if I had applied for a loan, it wouldn’t have been for a lot and I would have paid it back. I’m sorry for bothering you but I thank you for time and for listening. Have a beautiful day.
