Important Information
Pending Government Action
The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven.
According to the FTC’s complaint, the operators of this scheme are Ryan and Mitchell Evans and their affiliated companies. Debt collectors working for the scheme’s operators and their affiliated companies have sent consumers deceptive warning and collection letters or called them directly, claiming that consumers owed a debt of some kind and threatening legal action, wage garnishment, negative impacts to consumers’ credit, and even arrest if they don’t pay. The debts described in these letters and calls never existed, according to the complaint, and the defendants have no basis to make legal threats toward consumers.
The complaint further alleges that the defendants have sent letters and made phone calls to consumers claiming they owed money to a payday lender, and that the purported “law firm” contacting the consumer will imminently be filing suit against the consumer if the consumer does not pay up. The letters and calls also claim that consumers’ credit will be damaged by the fictitious debt, and that if consumers agree to pay to settle that debt, the harm to their credit could be lessened.
