Sterling & Sherman Law Firm Daniel Rich; Victoria E. Estep; Mike Sinclair; company they "represent" is American Payday. Their voicemail said "What the **** are you doing? There is a legal file against you.....Answer it....." A sherrif will come pick you up if you don't pay $795.00 by 5:00 today. Western Union it to refused, California
They left a voicemail that said "What the **** are you doing? I have called you twice and you keep sending me to voicemail.....There is a legal file against you.....Answer it....." I still have the voicemail saved. I called to tell them it is illegal to leave a threatening message with curse words and that my children could have heard this if they had been in the room.
They said that they were a law firm named Sterling & Sherman Law Firm and that they were calling to collect a debt. I asked who held the debt and they told me American Payday. I told them I had never heard of that company and that we had never done business with a company of that name. They said their law firm represented many different companies and quickly rattled off about 10 other names, which I did not catch.
They told me if I did not pay $795.00 by 5:00 then a sherrif would come pick me up and put me in jail. They asked me to fax a letter to the attention of Daniel Rich. They said I should state my first and last name, my husband's first and last name, a copy of both of our driver's licenses, our home address, the best contact phone number, and the last 4 digits of our social security numbers.
I asked them where their law firm was located and they said California. I asked their address and they told me they only accepted payments via Western Union and I didn't need the address. I asked the city and they told me I didn't need that information. Of course I googled it and it did not exist.
They told me I must Western Union them $795.00 before 5:00PM (It was 3:50 PM). I asked for their Western Union information that I needed to send it to in hopes of getting information that I could use to identify them so I could file a complaint for leaving a harrassing message.
They told me to go to Western Union and call them from there and then they would give me their code. I said ok, and called them back in about 15 minutes (from my cell phone at home). I told them I needed their code so I could send them money. They told me I should sent it to Victoria E. Estep in Waldorf, Maryland. They told me to stay on the line and after I sent the money because I needed to tell them the confirmation #.
