until 12/06/2012 My husband thought he was paying off a pay day loan, which we did get last year. We made arrangemnts to pay it off and then all of a sudden the threatening calls started. If you do not pay $845.00 we will have a policemen at your door tomorrow to arrest you. He told them with the arrangement we made we only owed $400.00 they said are you playing games and then connected us the their "attorney" who told us if we paid the amount of 452.00 then it would be all taken care of so my husband did that via Western Union to some person in Maryland. He then said we would be sent a certified letter saying paid. Well yesterday he called again and said the court would not accept that money and we had to pay to full amount including court fees of $745.00 via Western Union again to the same person or tomorrow he would get arrested. We have been sued before so I know about the process. MY husband has had bypass and was shaking. We were told because the court did not accept the payment they had mailed it back to us. I by this time am livid but that we could not wait to get this money first before we paid them more. So he paid it again and with the western union charge it was over $800.00. So now we have paid over $1200 not including $500.00 form the payment arrangement. We do not have that kind of money to just throw around. If they call again they are getting nothing. We have a lawyer we have contacted hopefully he can help.I sent you an email about my husband and forgot to include a name and phone number or address. I am Kaycee Gruber and his name is Michael. our address is 3406 floral street Wheaton Maryland our phone is 301-942-6509. These people who have done this should not be able to get away with it the problem is they call from different area codes and once you get a number they never answer that one and then they call you from another. He was really scared yesterday that he was going to jail. I tried to tell him as long as we were making the payments there was nothing they could do but they kept saying to him are you playing games. We are at our wits end. My husband is medically retired form Montgomery County and has had bypass surgery 3 back surgeries and is not in the best health because of his health issues I do not work. We only get what disability is through the county we do not have a lot of money sand sending these scam artists money does not help. We have an appointment with our lawyer n Monday but I do not think he is going to be able to help. I know that we will probably not be able to get all the money back but hopefully they can stopped from doing this to others. I have ACS INcorporations lawyers name Alex Watson the first number we could reach him at was 619-489-0128, we called thst number several times yesterday and it just rang. The number he called us fro yesterday was 818-408-8912 do not know where that is. Any help would be appreciated
