Scamming - Fraud
The fake "Cash Advance Lenders" email message below, which appears to have been sent from a so-called company called Cash Advance Lenders or USA Debt Collectors, claiming that a wire fraud allegation charges have been filed against the recipients, is a scam. The fraudulent email is being sent by cyber-criminals/scammers to trick the recipients into paying them hundreds of dollars, by frightening them with legal action, bad credit history, and by claiming that their income, child support disability, unemployment or retirement benefits will be placed on hold.
Recipients of the fake ACS email message should delete it and should never follow the instructions in it.

I got an email from Cash Advance, telling me that my case would be downloaded in 72 hours, if I did not make some arrangements for payment. I owe $450.76. I only have student loans. The email stated that the filing would be done in Ft. Lauderdale.
I just received an e-mail stating that my wages are going to be garnished.
I’ve been getting phone calls from Illinois, Georgia recently bout a cash lender taking me to court in Colorado bout a cash loan.I never got, tried to get a loan several years ago from a on line source, didn’t have a active savings or checking account, so was offered a debit card, was sent one, filled out all the information truely and correctly like a dummy, since then been getting threating calls bout being taken to court and sued, criminal charges filed, police coming to drag me to jail, but haven’t yet got a notice to appear in court.never did receive a loan from any cash lender or financial institution, but now these black market underground people have all my personal information, name, number, address, ss#.I’ve told them that I never received any loan, got proof, take me to court cause I’ll counter sue
