On Dec 1, 2015, I received the same recorded message from the number 717-798-3125, with a caller ID of Harrisburg, PA.  Earlier in the day, they called from 1-405-896-7992 (the number they tell you to call back) with a caller ID of "unknown."  When they called on Nov 26, from 405-896-7992, the caller ID was Oklahoma City, OK.

The message said I needed to "deal with this today."  I did.  I ignored them, just as I ignore all scammers who don't leave messages or leave recordings using scare tactics.

I have been in contact with the company. On Monday they were to send me a copy of debt from an online payday loan. I never received, so I contacted them yesterday again, and the woman did email me a "validation of debt". I have now heard 3 different stories as to amounts and payments that I have made, supposedly. Yesterday the woman I spoke with was "Rebecca Bradford" and she offered me a supposed settlement until I asked for payment proof. After that she began calling me nasty names, telling me that I am a terrible person, etc. I am from NE and contacted the State Banking Office, who sent me to state statute 45-901 (Delayed Deposit Services Licensing Act). I also googled Mesa Financial, and the internet says it is in Lawrence, KS. I then contacted the number provided and it was disconnected. I contacted the Kansas Banking Office and she found the same info I did, but Kansas has no record of them at all. After that I called the NE Secretary of State office and this company(either of them) have a license to work in NE. That office sent a certified letter to  them to cease and desist operations pertaining to NE. I don't know how other states work, but that is how my day went looking into this, In NE installment loans max out at 16% interest and they are practicing illegal collection tactics.

They called again this morning with Unknown Name as the caller ID and left no message.  I have received a call from the same number several times.  Once the caller ID was Oklahoma City.  Other times, I have received the same recorded message from 717-798-3125, with a caller ID of Harrisburg, PA, saying to call back 405-896-7992.  Sometimes they leave the message saying I need to "deal with this today," and sometimes they leave no message.

Also, within less than two hours, I will receive calls from other numbers leaving no messages.  Twice, I have received a call with a Mali area code (223) that leaves no message, less than 2 hours from the time I ignored a call from this (405) number.  Others on 800notes say that the (223) scammer claims to be Google or Microsoft and says that their computer has been infected and if they'll give them access to it, they can fix it over the internet.  I've also received other calls claiming to be an electric company that does not operate in my area or a survey taker--all within 2-3 hours of this call.  Then, I won't get any calls for 2-3 days (once 2 weeks went by with no calls at all--their robodialer must have been broken) and then calls started up again in within a 2-3 hour time frame of each other.  That is why I believe these scammers are either the same one using different numbers and different scare tactics or are working together with other scammers.  This pattern has gone on for years.

I have NEVER had a payday loan.  These guys are just scamming for money or personal info in any illegal, deceptive way that they can.

The exact same recording and it's calling throughout the day.  I refuse to return a message for an unidentified company.  Smells like a scan.  There should be a way to sue companies such as this but I'm pretty sure they have and reopen under different names and continue to harrass consumers.  Can I get "Congress" to outlaw this mess!  It should be illegal and PUNISHABLE to attempt to collect on false debts!

I had a call from 740-200-4781 and caller ID indicated the call was from Delaware, Ohio.  The practice is called Caller ID spoofing that indicates to the receiver of a call that the originator of the call is somewhere else other than where they really are.  So your caller was probably not n Harrisburg, PA.  I got the same call today and was told to call 405-896-7992.  Well, I do not return anonymous phone calls.  These types of scammers buy old loans, both delinquent and/or paid off, for pennies on the dollar.  Usually they are not registered to do business in the country and the banks they supposedly send your payments to are usually fake banks.  I dealt with some of these situations over the past few months.  I reported them to the FTC and my state attorney general's office.  In every instance, I was told they were fake collection companies and not to deal with them at all.  Don't even return their calls.
