Here is another scam:

"!st Email: LAW OFFICE ACE <ace.paydayloan.debt@gmail.com>

The company can accept minimum $200.00 bI weekly starting from today as a good faith payment so that we can stop the legal actions against you. And also as we have informed you earlier that if you are making a final settlement amount you have to pay $850.00 but if you go for installments you have to pay the full amount that is $1400.00. Kindly let us know if you are willing to make a payment so we can send you the payment instructions accordingly as you are already running short of time.

Do reply us back ASAP if you are willing to resolve the case outside the court without any legal actions against you.

2nd Email: The only mode of payment we are allowed to accept below $500.00 is thru iTunes Gift Card Apple , and you do not have to give out any of your personal information to anyone.

All you have to do is get 2 iTunes Gift Card by Apple with value of $100.00 each on it from any of the stores mentioned below, scratch on the bottom on the back side of the card, and provide us code.

iTunes Gift Card by Apple is available at these stores:

NOTE: We need picture of payment receipt as well as picture of back side of the card in order to process your payment.
