had a mary stevens call me from second chance financial stating that I had owed money for a payday loan in 2012 from advanced payday plus for 300.00..according to her after fees and other things she said the amount was now over 3000.00 that I needed to pay..she would not provide me any information regarding this account that I supposedly had and demanded that I pay them...she said if I paid 300 the account would be settled..After 30 min of talking to her I finally gave her my account information against my better judgement..I hung up the phone and looked up advanced payday loans on the Internet and contacted them..I told them what had took place and they said they do not have any account for me and they have had reports of this company scamming poeple..I immediately put a stop payment on my account and closed my debit card down and called them back stating that I found out they were a scam and I also looked at all my statement from my back for 2012 and I never had a loan from anyone for 300.00..Mrs stevens and curt barns became I rate and threatened to garnish my wages and they said they had contacted my human resources department to do so...I went to my employer and told them what was going on and they said there is no way they can garnish my wages without my permission and they took my info and would contact me if need be...I called the better business bureau and my local police department to make a report...If you are contacted by these people for any reason Do NOT give them your info...they are relentless and very very convincing.

#2Consumer Suggestion

I suggest that you file complaints against them with the following:

Federal Trade Commission

Your state attorney General office consumer protection division. Consumer financial protection bureau  (a u.s. government agnency). By filing a complaint you would be helping others.  Never ever give banking information over the phone.  The Fair debt colection protection act states that they have to provide you a letter 5 days after making initial contact.  I am not an attorney.  I can only tell you what I experienced.  Read up on your rights.  There a lot of scams out there.  I wish you the best.
