I too had a call from a mr greenway. He had all my information ssn address drivers license, every thing. Even the email I used to get my payday loan with check n go. I have read a lot of fraud stories about this company and ask him to email me my account details. He did and I am not denying the debt. Got in touch with fl atty gen who said they have to alow debtors to make arangments if need be but can not threaten or use the word jail. We have to pay our debt or we are stealing simple as that. My loan was originally 400 and I offered mr greenway 200 and with paper work then sent to me with arangments I paid and received a paid letter. I am now debt free. Just because their arecompanys calling for our debt doesn't make it a scam. That is just where our debt goes. Pay what you owe. Thou shall not steal right? Good luck to you all.

The best thing you can do to avoid these calls is c****e your number, if possible.  I had the same issue and c****ed my number and never heard back from them.  I know its not always possible to do that but if you can, thats the best course of action.  Regarding their threats, dont worry, they are just that, threats....nothing will happen, they wont do anything because their threats are illegal.  They cant take you to court because they are commiting illegal acts in threatening you....viloating all aspects of FDCPA.  So dont lose any sleep over it, and c****e your number if you can.

I recieved a call from a M. Greenway for ICS on Dec.15, 2010. He left me a voicemail and said that I was being investigated for wire fraud on a pay day loan back in Dec 2008 and that I had until the next day to call him by 5:00pm. I called him back the next day and he was very ***ue and rude. He said that if I didn't pay $ 797.42 by the end of the current month then his company would take me court. I asked what did ICS stand for and he told me that it stood for Interstate Check Systems located in Buffalo NY but when I looked it up this compay is located in Amhurst NY. I asked if I could speak with one of the attornies that worked for this company and he told me that all of them were in court and that I could only deal with him. He knew my ss #, home address, cell phone number etc. He said that he was looking in his system and saw that I had an active checking account and that I needed to give him my information so that he could s**** to draft the money. I refused. I asked if I could send in a money order and he said no I could only do a check by phone. I had a pre-paid debit card so I gave him the number to that and made a payment arrangement for Dec 31, 2010. I called a friend and she said that the sa****ing happened to her husband and that I needed to contact the police. I did and the police that said this was a scam. I alot of people have been complaining about this company. I googled the company and the owner has been arrested and convicted of scamming people. So on the 31st the card declined. Of course someone from the company called me. He told me that his name was John McCain. He told me that if I didn't make a payment by phone on that day that they would have to file charges a***nist me. A***n I asked if I could speak with on of the attornies there and he told me that they were in court. I told him that I spoke with the police department in NC and they told abut this company and he got nervous and said that since I had spoke with the police that he would have to turn my paperwork over to his supervisor and that they would call me back. Then he ***g up on me. Well...its Jan 25,2011 and I still haven't heard from them. If you research this company you will find that they are not legit. They have several lawsuits a***nst them. DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR PERSONAL BANK INFORMATION!!!!!!!!! You will never get your money back.

I heard about them from my grandmother because they called and threatened her saying that if they didn't hear from me in the next 48 hours, they were going to summons her. I immediately called them back and was told that they had the right to do this, I offered to set up a payment plan and the woman I talked to said I didn't have the right to do this and I could only choose three options of payment that was due in the next three weeks. Well, I told I don't work and that I would choose one of the options but if I couldn't pay it I would call them back to cancel --- she immediately said I could not cancel it and that if I did, then they would set up a lawsuit a***nst me. I then called back a week later and told them I could not pay for it. I finally received a call back from someone different last week who said I could arrange a payment plan and how much would I be willing to pay....he then told me he would get back in touch with me either at the end of the day or the next morning with options...he did not return my call. I called him back and there was no one there by that name. My payment was due today, but I had no money in my account so it was declined, I then received a call and the guy's name was completely different than the one from last week, but he claimed he spoke with me last week --- I let him know everything that had happened and that I would not be working until January and that the man I spoke to never called me back with any options. He said that since I lived out of state, there were cross line borders laws if a payment was declined or whatever. He did not care of my current situation and believed I was lying. First of all, I spoke to Attorney General and yes, you need to try to pay your debt but there are supposed to allow you to set up payment plans --- they have the right to sue in civil court but it's a lot of out of pocket costs that they're not willing to go through, they are not allowed to threaten you or your family --- if they make threats, file a report a***nst them, but the reason they have your information is because of you gave that information up to get a loan --- the loan company or the debt is bought out by this company but they will try relentlessly to scare you into paying them. They will lie. They will threaten. They will disrespect you. Just find out as much as you can before giving them your money. I will give them nothing if I do not have it to give.

So I got this call about pressing charges for fraud because of a payday loan. I have to admit they worried me and I gave them my debit card number so now what happens if when they try to draw the money off my debit card and there is nothing there?  Will these people really have a summons delivered and can criminal charges really be filed a***nst me?

These s***bags need to go go jail!  They are not abiding by collection guidelines at all.  What's scary is they had my DL# and last four of my social security number.  I called them on everything and the alleged attorney got on the phone and told me, if it's not recorded, then prove it.  Does anyone have it on tape?  Please get it on tape.  We need to go to the Amhurst PD and have these s***bags thrown in jail for misrepresentation!!!!!

You have been named a person of interest. You need to discuss this matter to avoid charges being filed. What type of business is this?? They don't accept payment by cashiers check or personal checks. They want access to your debit. Stated that they worked for a law firm. What happened to the privacy law? They gave up too much info to me ,because I am not the party they were trying to reach. Violation of HIPPA..

Tried sly dial on some of the numbers I found for these people, most came back as prepaid mobile numbers.

yeah I just got a call today on my cell phone said the same thing.  a person of interest.  the number came up as a (000)0000000 number so I right away called my cell phone company to make sure I wasn't charged some outrageous fee for answering the call.  I took down the number on the message and that is what lead me to this page.   Thanks for the information.

I have posted this elseware and this it could be handy to all of you... here you go. I am located in Arizona and received a call from these s***bags. After resear****g the number and these posts, I decided to do some more research and came up with this: Interstate Check Systems is an en***y of Northtown Capital &****ociates. Northtown's web site is: http://www.northtowncap.com. Northtown's address and location is (same as Interstate Check Systems): 15 Hazelwood Drive, Suite 102, Amherst, NY 14228 - Phone: 888.358.1120 - Fax: 716.691.2122 Here are the corporate filings found at: http://app***t8.dos.state.ny.us/corp_public/corpsearch.en***y_search_entry Selected En***y Status Information Current En***y Name: INTERSTATE CHECK SYSTEMS INC. Initial DOS Filing Date: NOVEMBER 16, 2009 County: NIAGARA Jurisdiction: NEW YORK En***y Type: DOMESTIC BUSINESS CORPORATION Current En***y Status: ACTIVE Selected En***y Address Information DOS Process (Address to which DOS will mail process if accepted on behalf of the en***y) INTERSTATE CHECK SYSTEMS INC. 3047 MAPLE ROAD NEWFANE, NEW YORK, 14108 Registered Agent SPIEGEL & UTRERA PA PC 1 MAIDEN LANE 5TH FLOOR NEW YORK, NEW YORK, 10038 Current En***y Name: NORTHTOWN CAPITAL &****OCIATES INC. Initial DOS Filing Date: OCTOBER 23, 2009 County: ERIE Jurisdiction: NEW YORK En***y Type: DOMESTIC BUSINESS CORPORATION Current En***y Status: ACTIVE Selected En***y Address Information DOS Process (Address to which DOS will mail process if accepted on behalf of the en***y) NORTHTOWN CAPITAL &****OCIATES INC. 1 MAIDEN LANE 5TH FLOOR NEW YORK, NEW YORK, 10038 Registered Agent SPIEGEL & UTRERA P.A. P.C. 1 MAIDEN LANE 5TH FLOOR NEW YORK, NEW YORK, 10038 Don't let the DOS mailing address in NYC fool you as corporations can have correspondence go through their attorney. Here is where it gets real interesting though. I decided to research the owner's name given above, Jason Jackubec. He appears to have been a player in various buffalo collection agencies, all of which seem to break every law out there for consumer protection. I decided to search "jason jackubec ny" on Google. It corrected me, apparently the proper spelling is "Jason Jakubec". One reference comes back to another buffalo collection agency, there is also one from classmates.com and FaceBook. Classmates says jason is a 2000 graduate from Wilson High School in Wilson, NY. Being sure to have the right person, I looked up where Wilson is located. North of Buffalo about 30 miles. Just a small town it looks like... but get this, guess what town is right next door? Newfane, NY... sound familiar? See the corporate filing above for Interstate. Ok so now we have the right guy... but what is this maple road address? I did a google maps/street view search of the address. Comes back to a ritzy looking house, that's right a house... a private residence. So off we go, who's house is this? S****ed to dig a little more. Second link on google at www.ypsort.com/main/ny/newfane/ shows a name and phone number for that address: Elia Richard A 3047 Maple Rd Maple newfane 14108 716-751-9252 Wait a minute... who is Richard Elia? Second page on google says he is the Executive VP of Sevenson Environmental Services in Niagara Falls. Well the location of his company makes sense, the location of his house definitely makes sense. But how and why is he tied to a collection agency. Time to dig deeper yet a***n! Remember that facebook search that came back on google? Well for being such a big ****, he isn't big on privacy! Clear as day, right out there is all his info! His profile is wide open! Oh, and his profile does confirm all that information, plus it gives his cell phone number, personal email, and his birthday in case you want to wish him a happy one! Back to Elia though... I decided to check out his friends. He has 249, so s**** scrolling through the list! Page 3, first hit, jessica elia. Page 5 rachel elia. No richard elia though. Well I have facebook, let's search for elia's in wilson high school... nothing. But we definitely have Jason linked to the Elia family. So back to google we go. I'll s**** with some common sense. Jason is class of 2000 so let's focus on his class. Going back to google sear****g for wilson high school alumni, I come across a new site, mylife.com. Enter the name Richard Elia and Newfane and let it ride. Well, it happens to bring up other people related to the same address as Richard Elia along with his age (56). It shows a Karin and a Joseph H Elia. Time to s**** making****umptions. Richard Elia must be a ***her! Remember, Jason is in his mid 20's as facebook shared. So let's find out who this Joseph Elia is... maybe he is our guy. Same site, just c****e the first name to Joseph. Guess what, comes back to a 26 year old matched up with Richard. I can't get any more info without registering but I have a name. Joseph H Elia - let's google it. Not finding much on him, all i see is a Joseph Elia from Newfane winning some money at the Niagara Falls casino in a poker tournament. That would make sense, degenerates to tend to fall into collections. Well I'm at a loss nothing. Back to square one. So as a final result, I decided to search "northtown capital joe elia". You're not going to believe this one. 1st result on google, guess what I find: Elia, Joe, Northtown Capital &****ociates. Jakubec, Jason, Northtown Capital @****ociates - DBA Conference attendees. There it is clear as day! DBA - Debt Buyers****ociation. It is apparently a conference where these agencies go to buy and sell debt. A meet and greet of the s*** of the earth! So here are your owners! Jason Jakubec and Joe Elia... do some searches... actually, if you want to have fun, get Jason's cell phone number from his facebook page and s**** harassing him like he has been harassing us! Oh, and don't forget... file complaints with the Attorney General in both your state and in New York. New York's attorney general is not messing around anymore when it comes to collection agencies who break all the rules! I'll keep digging into this and update if I find out anymore information.
