get a DV and C&D letter out today.do not call this person back.send the letters certified mail return receipt.

thanks I will send one out today...

The guy says he is with some Investigative departmant with Delanor Kemper and that he is Investigator Hutch, and that a claim for Bank Fraud - Theft by deception has come to his attention in my name, and that it is in my best interest to call him back immediately, he called my cell two times within 10 min, and then my home phone which is unlisted/unpublished, so I have no idea how he got the phone number. I see you told someone to write a C&D (Cease and Decist) letter but what is the DV? and is this just a collection company trying to use scare tactics?

Thank you!

DV is debt validation. You need to have them produce some type of proof that you have a debt witht he company that they represent. And yes this collection agencies do use these types of scare tactics which are actually illegal in most cases. Good luck with getting them to stop, I have found with most cases the cease and decist letters work for a little bit but sometimes they sell it to someone else who decides to start harrassing you again.

Any idea if there is any action I can take since they called my home phone and it is both unlisted and unpublished, and I have no idea how they got my home phone number. Thanks

I checked my credit report and " my cash now" (this is an internet pd loan, by the way) has reported to my credit report, and have done this without validating any of the information to be sure it is in fact my debt....I have typed up the DV letter and the C&D letter, I will be getting them in the mail today.

also dispute the CR entry as well.

When Mycashnow puts an entry on your credit report, keep in mind that they are not a third party collector, but the original creditor. So they dont have to validate the debt by law--the FDCPA does not apply to original creditors. sending them a DV letter would be a waste of ink and paper.

I had some identify theft issues several years ago- the police couldn't do anything about it because I had no proof. So what is my recourse?? Are there form letters for ther Cease & Desist? or a Proof od debt letter?? What would you include in these. They are calling my work!!!

I had a Investigator Skeeter call me from that same 678-500-8463. Said something about a felony!! She said she was also with Delanor & Kemper? They called me at work.

I would report them to your state's attorney general, that stopped the calls. Cause the attorney general took it seriously. That will teach them to say that I have a pending court case with no summons.

I got the same type of call; only he calls himself "Investigator North." He wants to come off like he's from a law enforcement agency and tells you that it's in your best interest to call him back regarding a claim that has been filed against you for possibly check fraud.... They called another night asking for my ex-daughter in law even. I am really grateful for everyone sharing their experiences with these types of low lifes! I had almost started to panic, until I started really listening to his words. Thanks again.

Better yet...tell investigator North, to kiss the "South end" of a "North Bound" Donkey

Look up the telephone number of the FBI in your area...next time they call, just kindly tell them that, if they didn't mind, you would appreciate them calling you at work between the hours of 10:00 am and 5:00 pm, and here's the tel #..

I finally got a response back after going through the attorney general. Basically they said although yes, I in fact talked with a debt collector on December 17th, and filed a report to the attorney general on the 18th and it shows that i agreed to make a payment on December 29th, that doesn't necessarily mean I'm correct, oh yeah and my account is closed with them, and I won't hear from them, and they will be watching the collector in question? what a crock of crappy bs. Their legal partners are Franzen and Salazono P.C. in Norcross, GA.
I'm letting it go, because they closed my account with them. Although I do have audio recordings of both the threatening message, and the threatening call. I didnt feel right about it.
If you have experienced similar situations, take notes and report it to your state attorney general, and the ftc. If you live in ohio, this is not the first time they've heard about this collector, and I hope that they get sued.

this people are calling my house every day and i have a unlisited number and they keep telling me that they will sign a warrent on me can they do it i am scared to death and don't no what to do please some one help me.my email is [email]jtlf2smf@yahoo.com[/email] so if some wants they can send me a email on how to handle this.

What state do you live in?

If you are in a one party state and can record phone calls without telling the other party I HIGHLY suggest that you do that with them. They are not attorneys, and they are not an attorney office, They only have attorneys working for them.

They cannot put you in jail and even the threat of that is against the law. If you can record calls and get it on tape with them saying that and if you can get that persons name then we can direct you to a good attorney and sue them.

Don't worry about anything, the law is on YOUR side now. $$$$$ for you and nothing for them.

I received a call today on my cell phone from someone at Delanor Kemper 678 500 8466 asking for a friend of mine - A. J. They said she left my number as the only method of contact in July 2007. I told him that I did not believe that she left my number as a contact, maybe she left it as a reference. I also told him that the number he dialed is not one where she could be reached as it is not her number; he said he wanted to confirm my name to subpeona me to court. I told him to have a nice day. He called back three times.

This company is legit although they are aggressive. They are filing "check fraud" against me in my county and that is public record and humiliating. Its from a payday loan from last year that I defaulted on and they used my bank draft information as if I had written an actual check. The account was closed and from being laid off and moving at the same time, its my fault that I just didn't have the money. Now it's caught up to me and they gave me 48 hours to pay and they accrued interest etc., and now my $300 loan totals $900. After the deposition that will happen on Friday.. that means my state will add $1000 fine to that as well as attorney fees.

I dont see how this is fair or what to do in 48 hours to prevent this. Any advice??

It looks like they read straight from a script and just change the investigator name from time to time. I have gotten the same call not only at home, but my ex-boss from two years ago called last month to tell me that she had gotten a call from them. Today's call threw in the county name that I used to live in two years ago. I guess they are trying to kick up the scare tatics a notch. I have saved at least one of the messages and I will be contacting my state attorney general's office to file a complaint. Thanks for the advice.

I asked for debt validation and was sent a payment plan instead.This is rediculious they are a collection agency not a investigator they said they were going to prosecute me as well i have talkedwith a attorney he said i do not think so.

this person from this phone number 404-537-1302 called my sister and said she was karen walker and gave my sister a case number and said it had to do with some kind of idenity crap, and i called the number back and her voice mail came on but i didnt leave a message cause i dont want her knowing my new cellphone number. so who are these people, and how can they get away with this stuff?

You should probably have called back from a payphone, collectors have very good caller id, they may already have your number.

Try this thread for more info: DELANOR KEMPER & ASSOCIATES.

I received a call from an Agent Jackson (678-500-8455) who informed me the same as above, that I was being pursued for check fraud and theft by deception. I set up payment arrangements before thinking this might be a scam as he called me on my work phone and I did really owe this balance. When I got the reminder phone call that my payment would be coming out (404-665-3166), I decided to do some checking. I called the company I owed first of all (Ace Cash Express) and got the number to their collection agency, National Credit Adjusters (800-542-1048) they in turn informed me they had outsourced my account to Delanore and Kemper Assoicates (866-578-9072). The lady at NCA did tell me that they have gotten a lot of complaints and that there is a collection agency out there that is stealing accounts. I don't know that it's Delanore & Kemper though... I feel fairly confident after doing the research that I am paying the correct people.

I received a call from a Mr. Dardin from Delanor Kemper & Associates and to start things off these guys puts on a good front like he's a professional but actually he's a harassing individual who works at a call center. That's what collection agencies do is employ people with aggressive tones of voice to try and scare people like myself but it will not work. Although I do know the nature of matter as to why he was calling in regards to a default payday loan which I seriously regret taking out. He threaten to call upper management at my place of employment saying that he had a conference call with them at 3:00 that they to tell them what was going on with this very personal issue with me. I found that deeply troubling because I know you can't do that and it's very illegal. I will be writing the Federal Trade Commission in Washington , D.C. to file a complaint on Mr. Dardin and the collection agency that employs him.

I RECEIVED A CALL AT WORK FROM A MS WILLIAMS OF WILLIAM SCOTT & ASSOCIATES. THIS LADY TOLD MY CO-WORKER THAT THIS WAS A CRIMINAL MATTER AND I COULD LOSE MY JOB. I WORK FOR THE TX DEPT CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND SHE KEEPS THREATENING MY JOB. SHE TRIED TO MAKE ME DEBIT SOME MONEY. I TOLD HER NOT UNTILL I SEE SOME PAPERWORK STATING WHAT I OWE AND WHO I OWE IT TO. SHE WENT BALLISTIC ON ME. TWO WEEKS LATER SOME GUY NAMED CHIEF AaRON FLEMISTER CALLED MY JOB AND TOLD MY SARGENT THAT I COMMITTED A FELONY AND HE WAS GOING TO HAVE ME SENT TO JAIL FOR A HOT CHECK. HE WOULDNT GIVE ME ANY KIND OF CHANCE TO TALK. HE CALLED ME A LIAR NUMEROUS TIMES AND KEPT TELLING ME I BETTER HAVE HIS MONEY BY SATURDAY MORNING OR MONDAY THE COUNTY PROSECUTER WOULD SEND ME TO JAIL. THIS SO CALLED COMPANY IS IN GEORGIA AND I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF ANY OF THESE PEOPLE. CAN THEY THREATEN MY JOB LIKE THAT

No.

Funny how all these stories are the same... well T Mac has called my mom about 20 times telling her that her daughter is going to end up in jail if she doesn???t give him my phone #... After being threaten of jail time my mom gave me the #. I called him back and gave him my name but before I could even ask what the debt was he started screaming and saying I was going to jail, I owe money now. Still not being able to get a word out, I asked for his supervisor, and company name (with his yelling I still could not figure out who I was calling). He told me he was the supervisor, and would not give me the company name.. After T Mac???s great customer service I hung up on him??? called back, actually got the company name, and MAYBE talked to a supervisor. He stated that yes I will go to jail, BUT I can make payments of $260 a month if I don???t want to???. Hmmm that was more then the STUPID payday loan my dumb ass got right when I turned 18.. What the F?!?!?! Well is T Mac right? Am I going to jail?

P.S when i asked him what phone number and address that they had for me they gave me my CURRENT # and address..... SO WHY DIDN'T THEY CALL ME?!?!?!?!

im currently leaving for basic training. when i contacted them and told them my dispute they said that if i didnt pay it off immediately that they would move to legal action and charge me with theft. they also said that they would have to contact my NCO and get me in trouble with the army. i offered to pay it off in full when i returned and they said that was not acceptable and continued to threaten me. what should i do?

An Investigator Hill called me from this company. At first he only gave his company as DKA and only told me the whole name after I argued with him. He made his call sound like he was a police detective investigating check fraud. He than want all of what was claimed owed to them by 5:00 pm or he would have issued a warrant for my arrest. I took down his number but never got back. Who was this jerk?

I was contacted by this Delanore, Kemper & Associates at work the other day and was terribley threatened I was told that they had sent me several previous letters that I never received. I was told that I had to send them almost $1200 immediately or I would have a warrent issued for my arrest for Check fraud with out going to court or anything. There was no payment plans allowed and I don't even no why the debt is as large as it is. If it is the bill I think it is it is only about 500??Does anyone know what wi law is as far as this goes. I was tormented, threatened and scared out of my mind. I have kids and am a single mom. The thought of jail pretty much sent me into a nervous break down. How can anyone do this, especially at work??

I was a victim of identity theft a few years back. When I asked this company to provide me with documentation, they went a way for about a month. Tonight I just received a call from my father telling me that this company told him that I am being investihgated for something and that the magistrate judge is looking for me. My dad told the man, that he would have to wait until I called to give me the message. The man told my dad I sure hope you find her before we do. He then said if we find her first we will arrest her on the spot and she will stay in prison along time for what she has done. Great now my father is completely freaking out! Any suggestions on what I should do?

Sue them under the FDCPA for lying.

Yes getting the same calls from some lady named Tracy Morgan. At first she was calling about check fraud from some payday loan she said I never paid, which by the way is NOT check fraud. When going thru my records, thank God I kept my reciepts I realized she was talking about a debt to which I have Paid In Full!! What it looks like is they bought my info and are trying to make me pay it again using these
scare tatics and harassing me. Well I took ur advice and sent a DV because this collection agency tld me to pay right now or will send out a warrant because they did not have "time" to validate. So I sent out a DV and I got a message from Tracy saying they got my letter and that I needed to talk to manager. I than got another voicemail from some guy Sergio , proceeded by 2 calls from autodialer. When I finally talked to them, Very RUDE, did not want to let me speak. I told them do not call me, ureciwved my DV letter in mail I expect the validation by MAIL in return. Than the "manager" told Tracy to hang up on me, but i fear it's not over. What else can I do to protect myself n to make sure this doestnt go on my credit report, which I included in my DV.. And2nd to those being called, u prob don't owe anything like me but they are trying to bully me into "settling" by giving me a bill TWICE of orginal amt.. These guys are scam artist!!!! Help!

so i have been paying them $65 since oct. is there any way to recoup my losses? also i think they actually used my card for personal purceses. what can i do to fix this

Close out your card immediately! Send them a DV letter demanding you want proof you owe anything and you want a full accounting.

I had a message from a Miss Benson who said that my file was on her desk and that I needed to call her back so that she could get my side of the story.

I have been receiving phone calls to my place of work from a man named Mel Clark stating he is the lead investigator for the "magistrate court" and they are trying to get a hold of me for a debt I owe. When I asked what magistrate court it is he hum haws around and can't tell me at which point I tell him not to call me at work and hang up. He has called several times but this last time was more bizarre than ever. He said he is from the Grant County Magistrate court (close to my home) and that I am in big trouble and I HAVE to talk to him. When I refuse he says he wants to talk to my superior and I told him that she's not available and he says I'm breaking the law and I am in big trouble for not letting him talk to my superior.
I have contacted a lawyer and he says that this is against the law and to file a police report stating that he is impersonating an officer of the court. Now that I have googled this firm that he's associated with I can now notify my lawyer with all the facts. Thanks for reporting this firm as that is how I found the information I need to proceed as I was never given all the facts about them.

Got calls today about how I have done something criminal and must call them back, then my husband received a call from "Agent" Jackson on his cell phone about me being a criminal and it being a legal matter. I have not taken a paydayloan, I am unemployed, I have no idea what they are talking about. I filed a report with the FTC and I am calling the attorney general in the morning. I am glad I am not alone and I am glad I didn't return the call. Thank you all for your info.

I received a phone call from Mr. Harvey Sloane concerning an unpaid payday loan. I was threateded with being taken to jail by the sheriff from my place of work. They also called my parents and tried to get them to take care of it. Well I called them back and when we actually spoke, Mr. Sloane proceeded to rattle off some info about a deposit to my account which when repayment was deducted was returned as NSF. He then proceeded to say something about the account being closed which in turn is where the check fraud charge comes in. Well Mr. Sloane should have done his homework because the account in question was never closed and I called him on it. To which he replied that he did not actually have the remarks?!? So I asked him where exactly was he getting his information if he did not have the actual remarks for the account. He then got an attitude with me and stated that he did not have to help me and he had all he needed to file his report. And promptly hung up on me. If this was really about collecting a debt then wouldn't he have tried to actually set up some payments. I never said I wasn't going to pay.

I got a call from an investigator morgan at 404-665-3174. She threatends me with license suspension and jail time. I'm calling lawyers as well.

All of that is BS...total stinky BS. They are not investigators, court magistrates. What they are is illegal and unethical collectors who will stop at nothing to intimidate you into making a payment. They are not interested in payment plans and if they 'agree' to one it is only to get your banking info so they may clean you out.

When they call you with this drivel, tell them they are full of it and that you will be reporting them to every agency you can think of, then do so!

Who are these people are they legit or illegal? I received a call from an investigator skeeter about a criminal act. What?

These guys keep calling my house claiming I owe a debt. The problem is they have the wrong person, must be someone else with my name. I have never been to the PayDay loan place they are talking about. I have perfect credit and even checked all 3 Credit Bureaus and I am clean. When I asked where they got my number they said my credit report and then demanded that I either give them the last 4 digits of my SSN or they would keep calling and harrassing me until I paid. The guy called me a liar and said they would have me arrested and sued! Sounds illegal to me. They can't call me if I don't owe the debt can they?

I too am receiving calls from someone saying they are working for Delanor, Kemper and Associates. And Investigator Harvey Sloan threatening me with the same thing. He is calling my job and I am at my whit's end!! Help What can I do to stop this??
