I got a call from a guy whose named he claimed to be Erick Foster calling from Hinsdale Lawfirm, his number was 650-425-1020 and he was calling in saying that he was contacting me regarding an urgent legal matter. When I called back it sounded like this Erick guy was working in a call center, and he says that my name has been brought upon his desk at his lawfirm. Erick says that him and his partner, John Bennett are representing their client, US Cash Advance, and they're saying they were suing me in the state of California for $8000-$10000, unless i could come up with some amount of money on the spot, in other words, they wanted $435.65, obviously, I started asking where they come from, how I know they're legit, how I dont remember about any overdue payday loan, I never even got a payday loan, Christ I've never even been to California!

Erick got pretty nasty over the phone with me saying I'm a liar for saying its not me, whats scary, its these people had all my info, from my social, to my address. I told erick to let me get the money and i'll call him back, i wasnt doing that, but after a couple of hours, he called back and was attempting to collect the money again. these people were refusing to give me any paperwork, saying the only to get it resolved would be to either pay this or go to california. they said if i don't pay this, they'll contact my employer and have me arrested and fired.

i was giving him a hard time over this, and he got fed up and said to forget it, they're taking me to court and that I should have at least $10,000 cause that's how much I'll need, I lol'd.
Nothing happened regarding these ass holes, just people trying to make an easy cheap buck. So me being me, I called back and started prank calling them, with different numbers, these people were so annoyed, they stopped answering.


I thought it was all over.

or so i thought.





Yesterday, 6/25/2011, I'm in class, and my phone rings, then I have a voice mail, this time, its some guy named James Smith, again like the previous people with a heavy middle-eastern accent, but this time, he was saying he's a Federal Inspector, hahaha, so I already knew about these scammers and i played along with the guy. It was hilarious, this Federal Inspector proceeded to tell me he's going to be sending some people to arrest me, unless I pay an overdue payday loan. I decided, let's have some fun with these ass holes.

They called looking for Anthony Chacon, I picked up the phone "This is First Lieutenant Chacon, what is this legal matter you need to speak of?" as soon as I said that, you could tell this piece of (Inappropriate Content Removed) froze. He continued to tell me how I need to pay them or they'll "come get me", i said "be my guest." we talked for a little, then i said "alright, i'd like to make a payment and clear my name please". then he asks for how much, i say $666.00, even, he says "oh really", then he asked for my cc number, i said "6660 0666 6660 0666, it expires on 12/12(doomsday) and the code in the back is 666". i guess he tried to run the payment cause he says o sir, this card has been declined, then i said let me talk to your supervisor. it sounded like this guy handed the phone over to someone else, a girl, who picks up saying This is Stacy the call's been transfered how can i help you" then i tell stacy i want to make a payment, she asked, how much did they tell you before you had to pay? i said the guy who called first said $15,000, she was sure happy to hear that, then she asked for my form of payment, i said, "oh i'll be mailing in a check. what's your address?", refusing to give me any information about where she's located at she tells me please hold,
some new guy answers the phone saying,

"YOU (Inappropriate Content Removed) YOUR CALL IS INVALID"
me-"what?"
him-'you (Inappropriate Content Removed), your call is invalid!!!!"
me-"what you talking about, i want to make a payment?"
we talked for a little, until he raised his voice at me, then i started yelling at him for no reason at all, i proceed to tell this mysterious man,
"aren't you even a little embarrassed of yourself that you're trying to screw over hard working people??"
this man, and all the people who work with him, are so cold, he said
"scamming people is my job, its my profession, its what i've been doing and its how I make my money!" then i said, "look out your windows, im outside", i think they were playing back my call in a room or something, because i kept on hearing myself echo throughout the entire call, it sounded like they said "oh (Inappropriate Content Removed)" then he started laughing, i said "man, screw you, i know where you're at, and i'm on to you, i know what you're doing and where you're at!"
then he hangs up on me again.
i keep calling back, he answers a second time and says "stop calling us, we don't want anything to do with you!"
then hangs up, i call back a third time,
and the line is disconnected!!!!!!!!!

  • OMG I love this person. He/she did exactly what i would have liked to have done to these bas____s. That was my reason for calling them back and insisting that they send me paperwork...I knew I hadn't taken a loan with these people and I had double checked my account just to make sure that there wasn't any extra money in there and of course there wasn't. My problem was that when they guy started making threats and calling me a criminal/liar I lost it. He thought he was yelling but he got fooled. Poor people in my front office heard loud and clear. But I would have loved to have been calm enough to have thought to do what this person did...it would have made my day. Kudos to a smart person for at least getting some satisfaction out of an otherwise shitty situation.
