This company called and verified my banking information, address and the last 4 of the debit card and processed a payment that I did not authorize. I tried to call the company after I received the texted receipt and the number was no longer in service. If you call the other phone numbers or try to access the website, everything is blocked. I am now fighting with my credit union to get my money back.

Computer called stating that there were attempts on delivering something attached to my ss# and it was returned. That is untrue since nothing ets sent back without a notice on doors etc. Sandy Haake got on the phone and read the last 4 of my social stating I owed a pay day loan and they were going to take me to court and garnish my wages. Needless to say a loan was never taken out by me and their is no such loan on my credit report.
Received a text message from 1-833-999-7455. The exact message received states: “Lawanda, You have a PAST DUE account in our office. Contact us ASAP to STOP potential Legal action/Wage Garnishments. 718-766-9223.” The message was received at 3:35 pm EST on 06/02/2021 to 252-XXX-XXXX. I called the number given and spoke with Kara, a representative with the company. I verified that the name of the company was indeed Mediation Processing Services and that the company was indeed located in Jacksonville, FL. Kara proceeded to inform me that the purpose of the correspondence was regarding an online payday loan with the company CashNet USA. The loan was supposedly obtained in 2013 for the amount of $400.00. The loan supposedly defaulted in 2015. Requests for further details regarding this loan were unable to be given by the representative. However, Kara was able to provide me with the IP address that allegedly obtained this loan. The address is as follows: 204.9.79.77. I received multiple calls from the company on this day. I was recently in Florida from May 13-18, 2021 and on May 15, 2021 I did lose my NCDL while at Universal Orlando Islands of Adventure. I can only imagine that my NCDL must have been found and that the information is being sold to whoever wants it because this is the 3rd call like this that I have received since returning from Florida. The company was calling me from a variety of numbers throughout the day even after I requested to not be contacted again except via USPS.
