The fake "Cash Advance Lenders" email message below, which appears to have been sent from a so-called company called Cash Advance Lenders or USA Debt Collectors, claiming that a wire fraud allegation charges have been filed against the recipients, is a scam. The fraudulent email is being sent by cyber-criminals/scammers to trick the recipients into paying them hundreds of dollars, by frightening them with legal action, bad credit history, and by claiming that their income, child support disability, unemployment or retirement benefits will be placed on hold.
Recipients of the fake ACS email message should delete it and should never follow the instructions in it.
