(877) 223-4132

I had a similar experience with these people.   I called them at this number after someone claiming to be a process server told me if I called them & "resolved" the issue, he could avoid having to come serve me with court papers. (Wouldn't say what jurisdiction they were from, just that I had been charged with fraud.)  I called "The Bar Group" and spoke with Margaret, who claimed that I had a defaulted payday loan with Payday Loan Yes, and that I owed over $900 due to my bank account being closed.  I had applied with that company and was turned down earlier this year.  I told Margaret that I had never received any written notification of this & she said that Internet loan companies are not required to send you written notice.  I was told that I could settle for $420, but it had to be paid by 12/31.  I gave them my debit card info & paid them $100 the next day and planned to pay the remainder on 12/24.  I have since researched, and according to the FTC, they DO have to provide written notice.  I called the Bar Group back & asked to have such notice sent to me.  The person who answered refused to tell me his name, and when I told him that according to my research, and my lawyer's office, they had to send me such notice, he said he would transfer me to someone who could do that.  I was placed on hold for about 10 seconds, and then the call was terminated on their end.  I feel like a fool for sending them the first payment, but you can believe they won't be getting any more from me!

The caller left a message saying I was in loan default and needed to pay imediatley. I called the 877 number back and a man answered would not give me any info. the ***g up on me.  I called back a woman answered and was rude and arrogant saying if I did not want to rectify my case not to call back. I took this to the police and if anyone else gets this call you should do the same!!! They claim to be the bar group and have your info already!!!

This perosn claims to be a process server with the courts. he wanted to serve me with court papers stating that I bounced a couple of checks but would not give it to me in writing.
