  This company has emailed me with threats if I do not pay back a loan from almost 10 years ago. When I did ask for which loan place, they sent a lengthy but rude email stating it doesnt matter where its from. And that if I do not pay, theyll inform my job, and press charges. It finally did not sit right with me and I begun doing research and found all of this information about them. Im terrified. I paid them a little over $750. I filed a claim with my bank and requested a new card number. This is sickening! The letter at the end had a different name than whats posted onto my account!

  The company told me I was going to be prosecuted for an unpaid debt. They have collected $550 from my debit card. I have reached out to the debtor ***** they are not associated with this group. I demand a refund to my account.

  This company called saying I owed from an old payday loan. The loan was in 2016. They used scare tactics to get a hold of you. I fell for this cause i was scared knowing i did not even have a pay day loan. They stated they tried to withdraw it from my checking account, and it was closed that account was closed since ****. Letter was sent to my address which I moved over 10 yrs ago. They threaten me about legal actions will be taken if i did not pay. Also, the payment that was withdraw from my account indicated it was for a purchase not a payment this why it prompted me to stop future payments. I did make a payment for $907.32 I contacted my bank and put a stop payment for future payments. DO NOT PAY! DO NOT USE YOUR DEBIT CARD!!!!

  This company gave me threats and told me that I will be arrested and put in jail if I did not pay them ******* on today. They suggested that I had a payday loan 14 years ago that I did not pay and they told me that the statute of limitations had run out and this has turned into a criminal offense.

  This company called saying I owed from an old payday loan loan. The loan was from before 2015 but she could not give me the exact date. The company was Sterling and Associates, her name was *****************************. She was very rude. She did not want to listen to anything. I had to say. No proof was offered for the debt just you pay if it charges will be filed. They use scare tactics. Contact your local ************************ and report them. I too was scammed. I am older and do not want or need any trouble in my life but thats what they rely on. They send you DocuSign but no no legal letterhead. But when I researched thats when I found the scam. No written verification was provided on the loan. I learned it is illegal to threaten you over the phone. DO NOT PAY!

  On 1/31/2023 I received a phone stating that i told out a paid loan out in 2013 and that they have been trying to get in touch with me and I said I never took out a loan, she continued to say I would be arrested and have to get a public defender. I just paid ****** today and have to pay ****** more on March 2nd. She couldn't tell who the loan was through. So if I don't pay what will happened? Need some answers

  I receive a call from ************************* at ********************************************************** stating that she was the mediation attorney for ******************** that was taking me to court and pressing Felony Charges on me due to a payday loan that was not paid. The address she gave was from when I first moved to GA over 10 years ago. The scary part is she has all my information! I asked for documentation and she refused to provide any more details than the bank that was going after me. She said she would email them to see if they would tell me who the sub-leader was. RED FLAG!! I got scammed. I got scared and ended up processing two payments in the amount of $1,083.00. After speaking with my son I started researching to discover the company that took my money out of my account as a locksmith. Here's the *** for anyone else that gets this same scam. https://start.cortera.com/company/research/l7l4ssm4q/sterling--associates-llc/I will be reporting this to the police tomorrow my bank has already started the fraud process to get all my money back!!!

  Was left a voicemail saying that a disposition was taking out on me from **** county at an address that I lived at in 2009. Long story short they stated that i was being charged with 2 felony counts of back fraud with ************* I had this bank in 2012. Thinking but not digesting what im actually hearing, they waited 10 years to press charges???? Red flag but i ignored it. Definitely spooked me and I fell for the bait. Didnt actually **** on my that the cops arent going to give you a warning before they arrest you! Paid $650 and when asked for documentation they gave an excuse that they couldnt provide me any. Called back and asked for their location address and they hurried and placed me on hold. That was the final red flag. Called my bank and reported fraud, hopefully ill get my money back.
