Cash Advance USA A Robert Williams has been emailing me and has indicated that I owe a past due loan with Cash Advance USA and that the settlement amount is $1050.00 USA Texas
I have been receiving emails from a Robert Williams who is claiming to be from the National Bureau of Criminal Identification. He states that I owe an old loan to Cash Advance USA. When I asked him for more contact information and how to contact the company directly he stated that I would have to work with him; he states that the settlement amount for the loan is $1050.00; he threatened to serve me at work and at my home with court paperwork that could cost me over $9000 in attorneys fees and such.
I have called 512-571-3828 numerous times, the only number that I see on line for Cash Advance USA and all I ever get is a voice message to go one line to apply for a loan to their secure web site or to leave my name and number and a representative will call me back.
It appears that this company is no longer in business? I had to beg to get this Mr. Williams to agree to a $150 payment a month to pay off this loan; I asked for a copy of the original loan paperwork and was never given this information.
Is there a way to find out if this company Cash Advance USA is still in business and how I can call them directly to verify if I owe them for a previous loan? If they are still in business and I do owe them for a past loan I would rather work with them diirectly to settle this issue.

Should I email this person and tell him that I have discovered he is a scam and a fraud or just talk to my bank to ensure that he does not attempt to take money out of my account on the 13th; in the last email he sent he talked about the payment plan information being sent by the 10th.
Thank you so much for your information!!

He has not taken any money out of my bank account yet. Do I just notify the bank to not take any money out of my account? I do not know what company it would not be; he advised me that they would be in contact with me on the 10th and that is coming soon! Help!!

There is no such company by the name of National Bureau of Criminal Identification. I bet the scammer asked you to send money off of Western Union or Money Gram or a reloadable card like Green Dot. The reason he asks for those methods of payment is because the scammer can not be traced or tracked down.
Your money is gone.
Right now you need to protect yourself if you sent the money through your bank account or debit or credit card. I hope you didn't do that, at least with the first method he can't dip into your account without your knowledge. If you did send it via your own bank account, contact your bank right away and shut down the bank account and open another one.
There is a Cash Advance USA company, but the person contacting you has nothing to do with it. This is a well known, long running scam where you are threatened with jail and all sorts of other things. Just put "Cash Advance USA Scam" in google and you can read all about it.
Protect yourself from this scammer.
