Identify Debt-Collecting Scams

Scam artists pose as Check Into Cash or other legitimate lenders in an effort to take your hard-earned cash. Fortunately, they can be identified if you know what to look for.

In Your Inbox and Mailbox

Like fraudulent debt-collection phone calls, written scams often make threats of legal action and attempt to make you pay immediately. However, other signs indicate that written correspondence is fraudulent, including:

Threats to seize your wages and inform your employer of the alleged debts
Sender email addresses unaffiliated with Check Into Cash (may be affiliated with AOL, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
Fake case numbers and unpaid debt amounts of which you have no record

On the Phone

Fraudulent phone calls are often marked by:

Phone number from overseas or very similar to your own phone number
Caller won’t provide specific information concerning the supposed debt
Caller claims you must pay alleged debt immediately
Caller is aggressive or rude, possibly threatening legal or criminal action

Loan Scams

If you receive an email or letter from scammers purporting to represent “Webster Law Firm,” do not respond to the email or letter and give us a call at 1-800-504-9101 to report it. We may ask you for additional information regarding the email or letter.

Scam artists may claim to represent Check Into Cash or state that they work for a business of which Check Into Cash is the parent company. These individuals request customers perform certain tasks to secure a loan.

This may include sending funds via Western Union® or MoneyGram®, loading funds onto Green Dot Visa® Debit Cards, purchasing money orders, or prepaying fees.

For maximum effect, scammers’ communication may include Check Into Cash’s official logo and mailing address. Check Into Cash warns customers against such fraud.

One example of a known debt collection scam is an email that appears to be sent from robert.muller.attorney@gmail.com and generally is sent from an individual with an “outlook,” “gmail” or other generic email address.

The email appears to blind copy potential scam victims. Sometimes the email contains a “Webster Law Firm” logo. The scammers list the alleged creditor as “Check into Cash,” may mention “Check into Cash Services Company” and allege “proceedings” against the potential scam victim.

This is a scam. Do not respond to this email or contact the sender or pay any money to this scammer. If you have questions about a previous or current account you have with Check into Cash, call us toll-free at 1-800-504-9101.
