"Franklin Law Group" Court Notices and Loan Repayment Scams

Franklin Law Group Court Notices and Loan Repayment Scams

Fake Franklin Law Group email court notices or notifications like the one below, which claim that the recipients will be served court notices to attend their district courts if they do not make payment on their total outstanding loan balances, should be ignored and deleted. This is because the fake email notices are just another scam being used by cyber criminals or scammers to trick and frighten their potential victims into sending them money by threatening legal actions. If potential victims respond to the fake email messages they will be subsequently asked by the scammers to send money in order to avoid arrest or to appear in court.

Remember, the United States government will never send warrants or legal notices via email messages. They would be served in person by a U.S. Marshal or other law enforcement officer. Anyone receiving a fake arrest warrant should contact the FBI or the district U.S. Marshals Office. If there is any question regarding the authenticity of a warrant, contact your district clerk of court.

    This is to notify you and requires your immediate attention.

    We are going to file a lawsuit by the above-given date against your Name and SSN. After giving several notifications our clients did not receive any response from your side. They are considering that you are ignoring this matter and you want to dispute. They are in a process to inform the Social Security Administration & major Credit Bureaus as well.

    If we do not hear from you today, we will be compelled to seek legal representation in the Court House. We reserve the right to commence litigation for intent to commit wire fraud under the pretense of refusing to repay a debt committed to, by use of the Internet. In addition, we reserve the right to seek recovery for the balance due, as well as legal fees and any court cost incurred.

    Note: The Legal Charges Section 19(A), Clause 21(US) is against you and if you ignore this case then our legal department will take the immediate action against you.

    If we receive the remaining payment from you thereafter we will provide you the full and final receipt stating that your case file is closed permanently with remaining zero balance. Don't take this matters lightly otherwise once the case file is downloaded thereafter we won't be able to help you out.

    • Violation of federal banking regulation act 1983

    •

    • Collateral check fraud

    Attn: Debtor

    All previous and repeated contact with you attempting to bring your receivables current has been unsatisfactory. According to our records, as yet undisputed, the uncollected amount owing is $986.45.

    We have extended every courtesy possible and have been amenable to discussing re-payment options, again without success. With no meaningful cooperation from your side, we have no choice but to demand full payment of the entire balance.

    If complete payment is not received by June 22, 2018 we will seek remedy through a collection agency and/or the courts at our discretion.

    Once the account is forwarded out of this office, we can have no further contact with you. Therefore, we urge you to take immediate steps to rectify this problem.

    With regard to this collection matter whenever appropriate, we will also notify the industry credit associations to which we belong as well as the independent credit reporting agencies. This will likely impair your credit rating.

    We note that the amount of $1086.85 is currently outstanding and payment has not been made in respect of your account, despite of repeated reminders.

    We wish to inform you that we have a strict policy of pursuing all debts owed. Accordingly if payment is not made in respect of the above account within THREE (3) DAYS of the date of this letter we will be forced to instruct our attorneys to initiate legal proceedings to recover the debt owed by you.

    Please note that in the event that we instruct our attorneys to initiate legal proceedings against you an application will also be made to the court to have you fixed with the legal costs of these proceedings along with any other fees which are necessary and incidental to the same, including any attorney’s fees, court stamp duty and any other associated costs.

    Please further note that an application will also be made to have you fixed with interest on the amount owed by you.

    The rate of interest applicable will be 10%. In the event that proceedings are issued and judgment is obtained against you, arrangements will be made for the immediate publication of the judgment in all appropriate Credit Bureau's.

    This will have an extremely adverse, and potentially permanent, effect on your credit rating.

    If we are forced to retain our attorney's to pursue this debt on our behalf, they will also be instructed to register any judgments obtained against any property you may own and to pass the same to the sheriff to levy execution against you.

    In the event that judgments are registered as mortgages against property owned by you we may then take action to force the sale of such property in order to satisfy our judgment.

    If we do not receive your payment in the amount of $991.67 within THREE DAYS of the date of this letter we will instruct our attorney's to commence legal proceedings against you immediately without further notice.

    Please give this matter your immediate attention and contact us immediately to settle this outstanding debt in order to avoid legal action being commenced against you without further notice.

    I was a recipient of such a demand letter that was initially under the guise of, "Secret Shopper." Everything reeked of scam about it, nevertheless -it's unnerving nevertheless.

    Fortunately, I have an old friend -

    former work associate that branched off to go to law school many years ago, & has his own law firm in Arlington, Texas. I called him - read the contents of the notice to him. He documented all the info & stated he'd serve them notice about his being my attorney & to say, "Bring it on!" He called me yesterday, to announce the scam this matter was, & to flick 'em away like a gnat - then watch 'em run! Always good to have a mouthpiece that knows what they're doing.

    Piece of mind is precious; my old buddy & a companion, will be enjoying a hearty meal on me.!

    Due Date: 11th July 2017

    Bill Amount : $991.67

    We would advise to treat this matter with urgency and we believe you will not ignore this final reminder. To save you the inconvenience of court actions, we kindly suggest settling the total amount of debt and additional costs as soon as possible.

    We still trust court actions will not be necessary and look forward to receiving payment by return.

    The best way of avoiding these time-consuming, costly procedures is to get in touch with us immediately so that we can clear the matter at once without resorting to such procedures.

    Assuring you of our best service at all times.

    Best Wishes,
