An "Advance Cash Services Legal Action" Scam

From: Matt Will - matt.williams@advancecashservces.com

Subject: Unpaid Account; Legal Action

Hello & Greetings,

We would like to inform you that we are sending this e-mail as a notification regarding your account with Advance Cash Services. This account has been referred to my desk for collection action.

As per my companies records you are currently many payments behind on this pay-day loan account. The total pending balance on this account is $767.00 which is increasing every other day due to non-payment.

This is the reason we have been advised to bring legal action against you as may be necessary, which may result in Judgment. The received order mentions that you have failed or refused to pay the above referred claim even though it appears just, owing, and correct. You are hereby further advised that if the payment is not set up within the next two business days of the date of this e-mail, suit in small claims court may be commenced against you forthwith and without further notice for the amount indicated above, together with prejudgment interest. Instead of small claims court, this matter may be referred for suit in municipal court. As my client is sure you are aware, if this matter goes to suit, all court costs, process server's fees, sheriff's fees, attorney fees where permitted, and other post judgment costs will be added to the amount that you already owe.

You can avoid the unnecessary legal actions and further expenses of a lawsuit by making immediate reply to us.

Sincerely,

Matt Williams

Advance Cash Services
