"Duke" from Chase! Sounded like someone from India. The line was noisy too. Call center scam .. I don't owe anything to Chase.
I received a text message from Robert Kent asking to go and verify email about money owed to some loan company. The email was poorly written and demands $650 to prevent arrest! I suspect Nigerian scamsters are behind this....

the only other way to have signed up for this monthly subscription was me signing up "by accident". She then "reviewed" my file and asked me for my home address and email address, which I negligently provided, and lo and behold, those were the home address and my email address used to sign up for their subscription, which she said, showed it wasn't someone fraudulently using my information to sign up for their subscription. I told her that I have excellent credit and have absolutely no need for their service and never would have "accidentally" signed up, and asked that all of my monthly unauthorized subscription charges be credited to my credit card. She then told me that she couldn't credit all such charges because it appeared that there was no fraud by anyone trying to sign-up using my identity and that I must have done so by accident, whereupon she tried to offer me their "service" for $5.00/month. In any event, I "cancelled" the subscription and she submitted a "refund request" for all charges and that I should get such credit or hear back within 5-7 days. While I wait, I will be contacting my state attorney general's office and reporting the company.
In mid 2019 we visited Pisa, Italy. Some months later we received a ticket in the mail for a car we had rented and the date we had visited. The violation being in-order with our records, we paid the ticket.
In late 2020, we received a letter from Kehoe Financial Group which apparently has multiple reported addresses including 463 Livingston Street suite 102-154, Norwood NJ (per recent notice dated Dec 14th 2020) and 190 Moore St., Ste. 203 Hackensack, NJ (per the Better Business Bureau), herein after referred to as KFG. The letter from KFG was detailed but critically flawed as to any chance of legitimacy, per the following details. All parties experiencing similar notifications are encouraged to report the associated details.
The so-called 'Ticket Date' on the KFG message is from mid-December 2020. The reported "Protocol #" and "License Plate #" in the header of the KFG message (under the heading "RE: MUNICIPALITY F PISA") match those of the 2019 ticket we already paid. Obviously this is not possible, since we have not traveled overseas since mid 2019, more than half a year before the pandemic. But the KFG-reported numbers and language matching an actual fully processed and remitted non-moving traffic violation are quite telling as to intent of KFG.
The KFG notice continues with a bold-font, all-caps, underlined "NOTIFICATION OF TRAFFIC VIOLATION FINE" and reports "You owe and amount of...", with a value in U.S. Dollars roughly between 2 and 3 times the previously remitted 2019 violation, depending on the currency exchange rate between the US dollar and the Euro.
The KFG message, however, contains no reported value in Euro reported from the municipality of Pisa, Italy. The language and presentation of the KFG message are very stern and clearly state that money is owed, implying a new violation more that 1.5 years after our trip, but from the same License Plate number and 'Protocol #'.
This is apparently an attempt to dupe unsuspecting former travelers who may not clearly remember making earlier payment of a violation (per the extended period between real vs. KFG-reported violation), or who may decide that since they obviously can afford overseas tourism, it may just be better to make the payment to clear up the matter and simply 'avoid any hassle'. In the perpetration of mail fraud or wire fraud, these types of trick are common practice by the fraudster to increase the chances of 'buy-in' on the part of the victim or the 'mark'.
It would seem that either Mr. Matthew Prolifrone or Ms. Kimberly Adamo or both of the reported principles (per BBB) either have connections to someone with access to municipal records of Pisa, or are securing this information from the public records of that town if available, or are securing information from rental car records from Pisa or another regional airport serving international travelers and renting cars to same. It seems clear that these two individuals are fraudsters.

530-402-8852 called. Recorded voice. Sounded like "Bureau of Credits" ...wanted me to admit I owe money on an unidentified loan! Trash! Blocked this number!
I was called and told to pay up a medical bill which was not mine! I don't keep any bills unpaid for long. This call is a scam. Hang up if they call you!
I was threatened with wage garnishment if I dont contact "Rapid Recovery Solutions" and pay off some loan which I never ever had!
They called my work and threatened to have my wages garnished. I told them it should be a matter of mistaken identity since I haven't taken any loan from them. Without any proof or paperwork they called again after a week. Highly aggravating.....
FAKE! Fraud loan company says I owe them money. Never heard of this Bullshit company instantcashforu.net let alone take any loan from them
Received a call from them yesterday on a work phone that is not registered to my name or any personal info. Called them back. Claimed to be the CRA, asked to speak to his manager and he hung up. Called back, claimed to be from a dept collection service. Asked how he got my information and he hung up. Called back once more, asked for the manager and he put his wife on the phone. Asked them why they do this type of thing when its very clearly a scam and why they are trying to ruin peoples lives. Told them I was going to be calling the police on them, to the response of "I'll kill you, you Mother F***er, don't ever talk to my wife again, I'm going to kill you, you Mother F***er."
So yea, its a pretty big scam, don't fall for this crap.
Forward Movement recovery is threatening to send officers to arrest me, quoting a 10 year old debt which I'm certain does not exist! They are calling repeatedly making totally fake claims. Beware! FRAUD
Mark Wallace called us and threatened to report us to the state Attorney General for scamming a loan company!! WOW! We are not short on any debt payment. Told him to send proof he said they had sent by mail and we must have scammed them by giving a wrong address! I asked him to repeat the address that he has on file. ...that was all! He hung up abruptly!!! WHAT A SCAM!! Beware!
Speedy Cash sent me a message stating I owe $$$ and if I dont pay up a lawsuit will be brought on. The link in the message takes to a web page of an Attorney listing out charges in a very threatening way.
Starcashline (?) messaged me that I owed money for a loan that I never took out! SCAM text
