The fake email is being sent by online scammers to frighten and trick the recipients into sending them money by threatening lawsuits against them. Therefore, recipients of the fake email should delete it and should not follow the instructions in it. It is important that the public takes precautions when asked to send money via money transfer services like Western Union and MoneyGram, or Prepaid Debit Card to pay legal services or the government. This is because scammers use those untraceable money transfer services to collect money from their victims. Money sent via those services are not refundable, once the scammers have collected or used it.A "National Credit Collections" Legal Notice ScamFrom: Jason Adams <jason.adams@attorney-cashadvance.com>Sent: Friday, September 14, 2018, 2:46:14 PM CDTSubject: Steven Huhn; Final Notice; Bad CreditDear Steven ,This email will serve as our final notifications before filing a lawsuit against your name and SSN.

Well I'm not exactly dumb, I'm extremely intelligent. I have ask them several times for the so called 14 points of proof they say they have that proves the bill is real and mine. They have not given me anything as of yet. I also ask them for their contact info and I got the address in Texas. I just looked it up and the first thing I see is that bold headline, national credit Collections scam. I knew something was funny, but this just makes me really angry. I'm trying to save money to fly to Ukraine and get married, and these A - Holes are trying to rip me off, if the law can not do anything about them, then maybe they should answer to some good old fashion country justice, but I don't want to upset them. They may sue me and make me pay even more money. That was the first give away, the amount they said I owe never was the same, it only changed slightly, but I have dealt with REAL collections companies and they ALWAYS make sure they get the full amount of money.an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userDec 2, 2019 at 12:40 PM by The "National Credit Collections" Legal Notice Scam Created by Cybercriminalsan anonymous user from: Bellevue, Washington, United StatesI just received the exact same email.
