to Patrick, bcc: me

Due Amount: $1355.14

Customer ID: #654412

Case File Number #:ONS-91/L27/921

Please take this notice that your account is due with an outstanding amount of $1355.14. We have to take legal action if you ignore this email.

If we don't get any response from your side, we shall have no alternative but to take action through the local County Courthouse to recover the amount due together with court costs and legal fees including all taxes which cost approximately $4825.35.

So we are providing you a minimum settlement of $931.83, if you just make a payment by today then we will close this account as paid off in full with zero balance or you can make payment arrangements with us for the total outstanding balance.

Thank You.

Patrick Law Firm.

My response: 7/19/24 @ 10:34am

Hi,

I’m sorry what account are you referring to as I do not see a creditor listed in this email.

Their response:

(They have my first name listed, but last name is not correct)

You took out an online loan from my client CashnetUSA/Speedy Cash/Cash Advance are the mother/parental companies which own & operate more than 350 payday loan websites and you have used one of them to get this loan approved.

We are talking about the loan amount of $400.00 that you took with the company, they do have a signed copy of the contract which is signed under your E-mail address, also would like to mention your Computer's IP address and your SSN was also traced when you were signing the contract with the company. The company has more than 14 types of technical evidence in order to prove that the money was successfully deposited into your Bank account which was a checking account

The loan amount includes attorney charges, affidavit charges,late fee charges and rate of interest and it goes to $1355.14.

1. We can provide you the Settlement Amount of $931.83 that has to be paid by Friday (as paid in full with zero balance) or, you can pay $450.00 by today and the remaining balance next month.

2. If you are not able to work with the given settlement amount then you can pay $290.00 monthly until paid off($1355.14).

Do reply ASAP.

I got an email as well from an email address from Alan Thomas, but Patrick Spencer (Sr Officer) signed at the bottom. No information on who the debt if for or any information to contact them.

Case File #: NV/51305Y/0551

Legal Charges- Section 19(A), Clause 21(US).

Case Format- Fair Debt Collection Act 811 (FC/SC)

Amount Outstanding: $1385.00

Settlement Amount: $850.00 for Today or two payments of $425.00 from Today.

Dear Debtor,

This letter is to notify you that we have received a Summons of Garnishment on your wages. This means that someone you owe money to has been awarded a judgement by the court for payment of the debt. The court has ordered us your employer to deduct 25% percent of your disposable earnings and make payment to the court on your behalf. The following applies to you:

Before you are arrested

If you pay in full, or make a part-payment before you are arrested, the warrant will be recalled and amended. However, it will be immediately re-issued if the debt is not paid in full.

After you are arrested

Once the warrant has been served, your only options are to serve the time in prison or pay the debt (plus costs) in full at the courthouse.

If you want to stop the garnishment deductions from your paycheck, you must obtain a release or pay the entire amount you owe, which you can pay with the help of Go2 bank Prepaid Card and American Express Prepaid Card in order to close this account.

What is garnishment?

Garnishment is a legal process that allows a creditor to remove funds from your [bank]/ [credit union] account to satisfy a debt that you have not paid. In other words, if you owe money to a person or company, they can obtain a court order directing your bank to take money out of your account to pay off your debt. If this happens, you cannot use that money in your account.

Why am I receiving this notice?

On December 5th,2023 we received a garnishment order from a court to [freeze/remove] funds in your account. The amount of the garnishment order was for $1385.50. We are sending you this notice to let you know what we have done in response to the garnishment order. You can contact your creditor for a settlement amount.

If you have any questions about the garnishment, you should contact the persons named on the included Summons of Garnishment by email.

Sincerely,

Patrick Spencer

Sr. Officer

Do provide us with the date on which you can pay so that we can update your account. Once the full and final payment is received a receipt will be sent to you stating that your outstanding debt is paid in full with ZERO balance and you are no more debtor for the company and will update the Major Credit Bureau.
