I received a phone call from Mr. Adams stating he was calling regarding a complaint that was file against me.
I inquired about the complaint, and he stated that it was filed by a company called Advance(d) America.
He told me that AA had deposited a loan in to my ** Federal CU account. He said I owed $517.00, and wanted to discuss collection options. I told him this is fraudulent, because I have never taken a loan from such company, and I do not have an account with any credit unions.
I asked for a reference number, his name, and company address.
He told me he was Mr. Adams and would not give any other information, as his company does not share that information.
I told him that it sounds like his company is fake and to not call me again.
He then told me “it sounds like your Whole life is just ***!!”
Mr Adams then hung up on me.
