I received several phone calls and voice mail messages today from an "Anderson and Associates" Law firm in Yerk, California. The phone # is 530-3331-8232. I spoke to a man named Alex or Garret who was EXTREMELY rude and hung up on me several times. Once I finally got him to talk, he told me that I was being sued by Instant Cash USA for a $300 loan that they had deposited into my checking account. He knew the last four digits of my social and my full name. I have no business with Instant Cash USA. I checked my account history online for the last 10 months and there is no record of any deposit from them. He asked for my attorney’s information so that he could subpoena me. I have never received any notification of this before today. Someone please help! What should I do?
Hi, These companies are some of the worst rip offs in the world!! I would call him back and tell him that he does not need to send any subpoena to any lawyer. If he thinks he needs to send a subpoena he can have the sheriff’s Department serve it. Also, ask him what bank account number and routing number was this alleged $300.00 deposited into. Also, personally, I would tell him that he is supposed to represent a company and his hanging up behavior sure leaves a lot to be desired. How can he get information and resolve a problem with that sort of behavior? I have had dealing with a company like this at one time. They kept taking all sorts of debits from my daughter’s account and she ended up paying over $600.00 for interest on a $200.00 loan. Not to mention all the little programs they said you signed up for that run about $39.95 per program and they don’t give you any refund when you cancel. I would suggest speaking to a supervisor but, they’re no better to talk to than he was. Get their address. Send them a copy of your bank statement or, a statement from your bank stating that there were no deposits made to your account from this company. Be SURE to keep all documentation you send or receive in this matter. Also, keep a journal of all phone calls, dates, times and what the communication was about. Please believe me, this is very important. If they continue to harrass you, you can tell them not to call you again and if they do, you will report them to the police and to your service provider. Calls like that are illegal. Do what you can do to satisfactorly show that they have the wrong person then, just let it go. If they try to take it further then, if you have an attorney, have the attorney call them or, report them to the police. JOSA

This is a scam. There is someone else who also posted a question about this today. Same company name, same claim, and the other person never got a loan from them and it was not in their bank records. BIG TIME SCAM!! Do not talk to them anymore - just hang up on them after you tell them you have filed a complaint against them with the police. That should make them leave you alone. Police might not be a bad idea either.
Good luck.
