Complaint Review: Richard Boyce

We received an e-mail from Richard Boyce saying we had an outstanding debt with Cash Advance Inc and that as we had not responded to previous contacts they were ready to submit court documents to our local sheriff's department to be served.  

I requested documentation on the debt but he gave some excuses about having provided them previously and could not proceed with settlement if we demanded those documents.  As we have dealt with cash advance companies in the past I knew that there was a possiblilty that we did have a balance due but didn't really feel that we did but knew I didn't have the time or the money to fight this in a court.  

He demanded payments in the form of prepaid transmissions such as Green Dot MoneyPak so no credit card information was ever provided to him.  Unfortunately I did not catch on until he sent an email today saying an arrest warrant was being issued.  This is after I had gotten an email from him saying the debt had been paid successfully.  The final came about as they said they located a debt to the IRS under my name and could take care of it with a payment of over $500.  I did not respond to that email and then got the one this morning threatening arrest and then did an internet search on his name to see all of the other reports on this site.  

Unfortunately I was a sucker and sent him over $1000 but have already notified him that I am sending correspondence to the Attorney Generals in Colorado and California.  I think I will also notify AOL as he is using an e-mail account on AOL to perpetrate this scam.
