Cash Advance USA
Reviews and Complaints

A representative called from this company and said I had a loan that was not repaid for three hundred dollars. I told them I had never gotten a loan from them and they called me a liar. I asked them when this loan was taken an they said between 2011 and April 2014. They said they deposited into my bank account. I asked m they repayment information and said with the fees and everything the total amount was 685. They to call when I get ready to make the payment and they would give me the money gram information.

I have been receiving calls that say I need to contact them and its very urgent so I called and they told me I have a lawsuit being filed against me because they have tried over and over again to contact me and I have a loan that I took out with advance cash usa and I haven't paid it so they are suing me for fraud. I thank asked can I speak to your supervisor and he said there is no one above me and got really #. I than said well give me the information for this company that I took this loan out from, he said I already gave it to you, but he did not. So I was very aggervated so I started yelling at him and told him to give me this information and I told him I do not have any loans and he got real # with me and said, "well tell me how they got all your information tell me that." And he than told me he was going to have the police come arrest me than hung up. I call led back and he told don't call him anymore, so I kept calling eventually he I got a busy signal and they haven't answered since. I also recieved a email tha tgives me what they say I have to pay

US Cash Advance has called me as well. I spoke with someone whose name was not understandable-very heavy accent0 but worked for the firm of Greenberg Law out of Brooklyn, NY. He was a lawyer with their firm and he was advising me that I am to arrested at my place of employment on 12/20/2013 or at my apartment by the Sheriff. He said that I had taken out a $9k loan and had de-frauded the company so I would go to jail for up to 16 months, asked me how I would like that, then I would lose my job as a result etc. When I asked him for paperwork of the charges, he would not. I then told him that I was recording the conversation since it was my work line and he seemed to get a little flustered. I ended the conversation and have turned them over the authorities.

A person claiming to be a representative has been calling numerous times at our business for the past few days. He is using the name Danny Martin. He also has pretended to be an investigator with the MA Dept of Social Services. He is rude, foul-mouthed and disruptive. We are a health care facility and he refuses to quit calling. It has got to the point he uses spoofing software and is tying up all business phone lines. He verbally abuses employees when he calls. He pretends to be his own supervisor. Even though the person he is calling for has spoken to him, he still continues to harass us here. Whenever he calls it shows up as "unavailable" or anonymous. We've tried to block his number and have had the police involved. When we repeatedly request for him to stop calling he just laughs and taunts us by replying that he is going to continue to call.

I received a phone call from LRS litigations informing me I had four hours to respond then 24 hours before they would check into my employment . Then when I call back I get the ma box is full for four days before I get a human. Them I am told I will have my wages garnished and may have to go to court and be charged with fraud. Because US cash advance says I owe them money. So when I ask for something in writing I am told the call was my notification and was hung up on so now I supposedly have a cash advance company after me but didnt even have a chance to call within the time frame to settle or even really know what's going on. So I guess now I find a way to go after them my bank is going to do an investigation because the money taken out then put back on then crediting 400.00 dollars them removing payments then depositing 400.00 again now mind you the account belongs to some one who is mentally dissabled and did not know money was put into and removed from his account. Have never received any corrispondece til now all of this supposedly happened last December into January. Also at this time he was having complications from a quadruple bypass then in January had to have a sternul reconstruction.

I have been dealing with the same scenarios of a scam where Indian accented people tried to harass and scam me out some money saying that I owed money to a Pay day loan company. Here is the latest use of fake names and numbers: Mark Johnson [protected] (Alabama area code) and Daniel Jackson [protected] claiming he was Spring Hill FL area. When I asked to verify this information with this so called loan company, Daniel Jackson told me to call US Cash Advance at [protected], when I did, a lady answered with an Indian accent. That's when I figured out it was a scam. They had my social security number and my addresses email and home. All my phone numbers. I have contacted my bank and credit reporting agencies.

A man named Chad Taylor calls from a cell phone number [protected] saying that I have refused to pay back a payday load from US Cash Advance. He says that he is a paralegal working on behalf of US Cash Advance and that this company is taking federal legal action against me. He calls my work and cell phone at least 10 times a day. I have been ignoring the calls until today and when I answered he threaten me with a lawsuit that would ruin me. He advised me that I should find a lawyer because I would have to fight the federal goverenment.

I WAS FIRST CONTACTED APROX 15 FEB 2013 BY A FEMALE NAMED MICHELLE BROWN, SHE CLAIMED TO BE AN ATTORNEY WITH ANDREW JOHNSON/LAW FIRM OPERATING OUT OF MONTGOMERY ALA. SHE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME NOT TO INTERUPT HER WHILE SHE READ ME THE CHARGES, SHE SAID HAD TAKEN A PAYDAY LOAN AND HAD DEFAULTED . WHEN I ASKED HER SPECIFICS SHE GOT "MAD" I ASKED TO SPEAK TO HER LAW PARTNER SHE SAID NO.
IN SHORT SHE SAID I HAD RECEIVED A WIRETRANSACTION OF $340.00 AND THAT I HAD STOLEN THE MONEY, I ASKED FOR HER PROOFS, SHE HAD ALL MY PERSONAL INFO.. HOWEVER WHEN SHE DECLARED I HAD "NO RIGHTS" IN THIS MATTER AND HAD THE POWER TO ARREST ME OVER THE PHONE, I KNEW THIS WAS BOGUS! THE NUMBER WAS [protected], SECOND NUMBER OF HERE "SUPERVISER " IS [protected] THESE PEOPLE TRIED TO GET ME TO SEND THEM $ 994.00, AND IF I DID NOT I WOULD BE ARRESTED "WITH IN THE HOUR" THEN PAY AN ADDITIONAL 8940.00 IN FINES. A SUPPOSED INTERPOL AGENT BOB BELLOR, TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE THE CRIME WAS SO SERIOUS THAT THE VETERENS ANDMISTRATION WAS GOING TO HAVE ME ARRESTED, AND THAT MY FELLOW MARINES WOULD DISOWN ME
HE SAID THAT BECAUSE I WAS A U.S. MARINE VET, THAT THE COURTS WOULD TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THAT I WAS A "WAR CRIMINAL" AND WOULD BE PUNISHED BEYOND MY WILDEST DREAMS. HE PROCEEDED TO INFORM ME THAT MY FAMILY WOULD ALSO SUFFER AND BE PUNISHED. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH FTC, AND MY STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL. MY OPINION AND ANALYSIS; IS THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE AL QUIDA AGENTS AND OPERATIVES AND AS SUCH ARE A THREAT TO THE SECURITY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. B E W A R E THIS IS A SCAM
DO NOT LET THESE PEOPLE RATTLE YOUR CHAIN, THEY INDEED ARE THE ENEMY OF A FREE SOCIETY, THEY ARE PRACTICING T E R R O R I S M / S C A M BEWARE THESE PEOPLE ARE AS FAKE AS A 3 THREE DOLLAR BILL!

Received phone call claiming we owe $700+ in fees for not paying back a $500 payday loan. We did not get a payday loan from U.C. Cash Advance. Had we gotten a $500 loan the way it works, the loan amount comes out of our checking account on the first of the month. I advised the man that I can go through the bank statements and will not find where U.S. Cash Advance put $500 onto our account nor will I find where U.S. Cash Advance withdrew what was owing them on the 1st. I believe this company is a fraud and all I have in the phone number of [protected]. My name is Adolph and Katherine Jones. They probably got all of the personal information off the internet. Finally, they claim legal action and are sending us an affidavit. I suspect this is a fraud. My e-mail address is katherine.[protected]@yahoo.com.

this man called, today second time in a week .said that i had taken a loan out from us cash advance, and i had defrauded them and they was gonna take me to court, asked if i had a lawyer, also knew where i worked, told me to talk to his office where this man with dialect speech both had, (reminded me of some SCAMMER from Ghana ).. read me a bunch of stuff .. told me not to ask any questions until he was done .. so when i ask him how much it was he said 591.00, then i ask him when did this take place and he said he didn't know, i told him i had my bank statements and there's no deposit for that amount, at this time the man is getting angry won;t answer any questions and hangs up .. [protected].

I just got into work and had a message...been off all weekend...come in here to a message saying I need to contact them immediately or I will be taken to court...never had a loan with them recently it has been YEARS...the number was on my phone...as I write them down before I get the message...[protected]. The e-mail stopped after I told them to send me an address or physical information that I had received a loan...This is what we get in the US for outsourcing work...these people think they can do just anything and get money from us.

Some guy named Michael Brown called my work number, saying that they had filed a law suit against me for theft by taking because they had deposited $200.00 in my account, which they never did, I have never heard of this company, but he threatened me with being arrested, called back and asked for my boss and told my boss I was a thief. I called him back and told him I wanted his address and the name of the attorney they are using so my attorney could file harassment charges against them and that I had done some research online and saw all the complaints that sounded just like mine. I also told them to tell me the date that they deposited this money and he told me he didn't have to, I told him it was because they never had, he said "Fuc# You!" and hung up on me. Hopefully I won't hear from them again.

I keep getting calls from a guy buy the name of Eric Thomas [protected] stating that he was from the Sheriff, s Dept and try to help me out by keeping it out of court. They say tha I took the loan out last year and if I don't pay the loan now that they will send the FBI to my place of work and throw me in jail. I got to asking a bunch of questions and the guy started to get up set and started yelling at me. This person has. All my personal information and has me very nervous. Something needs to be done. A Sheriff, s Dept is not going to call you and tell you that they are trying to help you out.

This man named robert called my cell phone (with a middle eastern accent) stating he was from the financial crime investigation unit and I had a warrant for my arrest due to non payment with a company called us cash advance. I stated to the man I have never received a loan from such a company. The man had all my information; work, social, bank name, email address, and home address. This man stated this company has tried to contact me several times thru email with no response. This man became very agitated and angry when I began to prove my innocence of this action. He states I will be arrested with 24 hours then I can prove my case. When my husband called this man the man offered for him to pay the supposed loan I had received and the action would be dismissed. This is the biggest crap ever. I stated to the man anybody could get my information he said you need to stop being sorry and stop making excuses saying this was done thru identity theft. He then said when the police man showed up to pick me up then I could tell him it was a joke and then see when I am behind bars that it wasn't one. Can't there be something done about such people like this.

A man from this number called me saying I owe him money and that they will go thru my job to get it and I told him I haven't worked in 3 yr. Then he goes and tells me about a bank account that I don't have in california, I told him I has the wrong person and he then starts threatening me saying I will go to jail. I told him to leave me alone and go f*@$ himself and he began to yell at me telling me to suck his d*%& and he will f*#^ me, I filed a compliant with the federal govt

I have been receiving phone calls from an attorney Steven Johnson, ph # [protected] who claims to be representing Advance Cash USA.in this conversation he indicated I committed internet fraud and would be taken to court for failure to repay a pay day loan which I never received. He claimed it was in the amount of $125.00 that was supposed to be repaid out of my checking account on April 13th which I knew to be a lie because that's not even a payday for me. Anyway he claimed the total was now $789.00 with fees and they would be serving me papers on my job this Friday. I asked him to provide documentation and his response was they sent me several emails! I filed a complaint with the FTC and the state attorney general. I've also put a fraud alert on my credit reports as well and contaced my local police. PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM! I looked on line and no debt collector has the right to threaten to have you arrested or harrass you. BE AWARE! This attorney also has a middle eastern accent.

While at work today I received a call at work, I was told it was regarding a legal matter. I asked what the legal matter was about and the man on the phone (had a very thick Indian accent) said he didn't have that information, but he could transfer me to the lawyer in charge of the collection. He then transferred me (which sounded more like him handing a phone to someone beside him) to the lawyer, stupidly I didn't ask for his name, but I did ask what firm he was with and he quickly went into the collection matter not answering my question. He said the collection was from a payday loan I had taken out back in January 2008 in the amount of $530 from USA Cash Advance that I had failed to pay for. He then informed me that I was in the process of being sued unless I paid the amount in full. I again informed him I was at work and that I would call him back later. After hanging up I was a bit concerned because he knew my name, address, social security number, work number, work address, as well as many personal details that made me think this was legit. I decided to research the company just to make sure I didn't have one out I didn't remember about, but googled the payday loan company the top search was Complaint Board.com and 19 pages worth of the same scam happening to me! Later this evening I received a call, it was from the same company. The man with the thick Indian accent was very irate, he asked me why I hadn't called him back, and would NOT let me get one word in, so I hung up on him. Within 5 minutes he called me back, this time he was on a wild tangent, after a very heated conversation he then told me " You will lose your job tomorrow!" and hung up on me. After hearing that I called my local sheriff's office and informed them of the situation, that way I would have something on file if the company calls and starts harassing my work. I am so grateful for site. The best advice I received from the local Sheriff is, once you receive a call from this company if your phone has the option send them straight to voicemail. It is a SCAM!

I can see that from reading the complaints already filed on this company that they call from all different numbers, law firms, but all are foreign very heavy accent and very rude! The man that call me for US CASH ADVANCE was named George Taylor and the Attorney he was with was Richard Hendersot, said they had a warrant for my arrest if I did take care of this matter by Monday. So why I had him on the phone someone else called 911 and they referred me to the sheriff’s office. There was no warrant and nothing else as far as legal matters against my name. I had found these complaints on this site by looking up the company and I am so glad that I thought to do this and that this was here for me to see, it really saved me a lot of anguish by finding this site. I don’t know how to the calls to stop but if I get any more than I will file a report with my local police station and make sure they know about this site. DO NOT SEND THEM ANY MONEY IT IS A BIG SCAM GOING ON AND ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO SEND MONEY TO RECEIVE MONEY! I had that call also today

These guys called me saying i used their services which i never have and said they where going to calls the cops and have me arrested. Which there is no debt jail. But it was very scary! They are trying to scam money out of me and they have a very heavy Indian accent and they hung up on my the first couple of times that i called. Whoever they are and however they got my info they need to be stopped and arrested.
