Yet Another Scam Debt Collection Email

I feel bad for my client who is receiving all of these scam debt collection emails.

For the record, you can completely ignore any debt collection email that:

1. Comes from a Gmail address

2. Contains spelling and grammatical errors

3. References courts that do not exist

Debt Collection Bottom Feeder Text Messages

Here is a cell phone screen shot sent in by one of my clients. The ex significant other took out some internet payday loans in my client's name.

Eventually, the defaulted loans get sold to "bottom feeders" who will never stop the harassment. Keep in mind, that the FDCPA and the Telemarketing Sales Rule regulates this kind of behavior, but we still have to find them to serve a lawsuit.

It is hard to track down these scammers when they use Google Voice or VOIP phone numbers to call and text from.

The take away from this, is that you absolutely have nothing to be afraid of if someone is 1. texting you and 2. if English is definitely not their primary language.

It is kind of funny actually. If this is happening to you, try to laugh it off, and DO NOT return the text.

Scam Debt Collector Bottom Feeders

A current client forwarded this email to me. First  a scammer will always use a non-traceable email address such as Gmail or Hotmail.

For fun, see how many grammatical, spelling and format errors you can find in this message as well as completely inaccurate information. Lol.

My response:

I emailed back and offered to "settle this alleged debt in full" for $50.00. They immediately countered at $100.00 and asked that I send an account number for a $100 pre-paid Amazon.com gift card back to this email address. The logic was "we don't want your banking information, we understand that it might make you feel uncomfortable giving your banking information to a collection agency. Go to  https://www.amazon.com/gift-cards, (affiliate info removed) and purchase a card for $100. Then gift it to us at this email address and send us the confirmation from Amazon". What a complete scam.

The shame is that people probably fall for it.
