ADVANCE CASH SERVICES INC.

Due Amount: $946.74
Apart from getting laid off by your current employer after we send them the legal notice you will be blacklisted from getting any job.
Through an IRS (Internal Revenue Service) your Social security number will be put on hold causing severe damage to your credit history or credit report and your income paychecks will be put on hold.
Any child support, Disability, Unemployment or retirement benefits will be either place on hold or will be stopped until the outcome of the case.
Our primary job was to notify you about the case before we send you legal document in the mail because once this case gets registered then we won’t be able to help you out of court. Our client is least interested in getting the money at this point as they want to just go ahead and start taking legal actions however we wanted to contact you and give you last chance to resolve this case out of court.
If you take care of this out of court then we will release the clearance certificate from the court and we will make sure that no one will contact you in future.
Please let us know what your intention is by today itself so we can hold the case or else we will meet you in court house.Our intention is not to threat you, it is only an effort from outside to settle this case outside the court.
Come back to us ASAP, as the case in hand is time sensitive.
Best Regards
ACS CASH INCORP
