My husband and I have have received about fifteen phone calls from this and other numbesr. We have told them emphatically not to call again. I told them that I don't trust them, not to call me, and that I will call the Attorney General if the calls continue. My calls seem to have subsided but my husband continues to receive them although the callers are asking for me.
This began about December 23 or 24, 2010. I was responding to Publishers' Clearing House about a legitimate contest. Apparently the company in question attached itself to PCH. I came upon something from PCH announcing that I might/could have won a $1000.00 gift certificate from Wal-Mart. I pressed on the link which took me to another one that said that I might/could have won a $100.00 gift certificate from Wal-Mart and to give my phone numbers. Knowing that PCH is legitimate, I put in both my phone number and that of my husband. Then it dawned on me that the gift certificates from Wal-mart were for different denominations, that I shouldn't press continue, and that this sounded questionable. I did not press the continue button and did take our phone numbers off the site; however, it was too late. Within a minute, my husband and I began getting phone calls.
I received one of the calls Christmas Eve. It was for a student loan. I told the woman that I wasn't interested, that it was Christmas Eve, that I did not trust her, and for her not to call me back. Then she said seriously, "So, you aren't interested in going back to college?" (I am a retired teacher with my Master's degree. Obviously I don't want to take out a loan to go back to school.)
My husband has received calls from several numbers but this one primarily. The calls are from a company with a name such as Pay Loans.

Had some jack wagon call me from this number, sounds like a girl from India. Told her to screw off when she mentioned a payday loan. Hung up. If you give ANY personal info over the telephone to an unknown company/person then you are a complete idiot!!
I had requested a payday advance, thought I was speaking with a ligit person, gave all personal information and followed instructions I was given to receive loan, however, website doesn't exist as was explained. So, Now they have all personal info, checking info, etc....I am really thinking they are scan artist. Guess, I will now block credit report, and change banking info immediately. Would really like to know who these people are, so I too can make a complaint with the BBB and law enforcement.
will not stop calling me.. over and over??
Just got a call from Ricter. I asked for a manager and a man named Steve answered. I asked for name of company, was told Quick Cash Locator based in Sacramento, CA. I asked for a call back number so I could call to complain. Steve said, "If you don't shut up, I'm going to fly to NY and piss on you, then kill you." I've never been threatened by a telemarketer before. I have never requested info on loans and am on the national do not call list since 2001. If you get any info on these people please post here so others can file complains.
