Sonic Cash Net Threatened by a bogus bill collector Irvine California
I was contacted by phone by a man who said he was "James Johnson" but he sounded very Indian, as in India. He said he was calling from Sonic Cash Net who represents over 50 pay-day loan companies. He reported that I owed the lender $500 from March, 2007. I knew instantly this was a scam because I also knew that I had not applied for or received a pay-day loan in 2007. He said my refusal would necessitate legal action through the FDBA. Well, there is no such thing as the FDBA.
If I were a less secure person this would have been a devastating call to receive. These people need to be stopped because he did have access to my personal banking information and my SS number. I have placed an alert on my account but I know that is not fool proof either.
Please beware! I'm sure these people get money out of poor, scared people everyday. Don't let this happen to you!

I was contacted again today by a representative of Sonic Cash Network regarding a alledged pay day loan I received. This time the man said his name was Shawn Richard...NOT! Once again he threatened to turn this account over to the legal department if I did not pay his company $500.00 today. I have checked my bank account, of which he had all the information, and determined there was no pay day loan deposited on or any date prior to or after the date he referenced. This is a SCAM and everyone should be careful. I have also instructed my bank to flag this companies name and let me know if they get anything which looks suspicious being attempted to draft from my account.
