CASE FILE NO:- ACE 534219065

CREDITOR - ACE (ADVANCE CASH SERVICES)

Dear Debtor,

Having checked your Social Security Number through our National Checking Database System, and finding out that you have been never charged for a fraud activity, ACE has decided to give you a chance to take care of this issue outside of the Court without you having a report on your Credit History and SSN. In order to avoid a lawsuit of $3200.60 against you, we request you to kindly pay the Court Restitution Amount which is $980.76. If you settle this matter today, you may be entitled to get some percentage of deduction on the restitution amount. You will have to send us a promissory note in order to hold your case file from being sent to the court house. On a case to case basis, you may be given the solution to pay 45-55% of the pending amount in the same month & a 30 days extension to settle the rest of the settlement amount as mutually agreed.

As we were unable to reach you so we are sending you this final notification through email. This legal matter will require your cooperation, so kindly get in touch with the department to make a payment and freeze down this case.

The principle amount was $300.00 and now with the late fee and taxes it includes the Attorney charge, NFS Charge, Affidavit Charge, Rate of Interest the initial amount of $300.00 goes up to $980.76.

We don't appreciate your negligence on this account and if you do not want to make resolution on this account with us regards your case file then we do apologies.

Should further action be taken, We will file suit against you for defamation of credit; relief under the FDCPA, breach of signed agreement and request payment of our attorney fees and costs and statutory penalties.

Your prior correspondence, emails, etc. were not in compliance with the FDCPA. As you know, FDCPA permits statutory penalties consisting of $800.15 per violation;

UNITED LEGAL INVESTIGATION BUREAU HAS STATED 4 SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS AGAINST YOU AND THEY ARE:

· Warrant of Execution (Exceptional Attachment Order). Seizure and sale of movable non-essential assets / property by a County Court Bailiff /Sheriff Officer.
