down right off the hook
i think this company is such a rip off!! they are hired by companies trying to collect debts and then if u dont pay what they ask for, they put themselves on your credit report and they sell your number to other foreign companies and harass u. i am looking to sue them.

There is a class action against them
Scott P. Hintz, is suing Experian and Marauder in a class action lawsuit. Just google Scott P Hintz - He is suing in the state of Virginia. And isn't it funny BOTH Marauder and Experian have very vague ways of contact. It is only via email, or a fake calling tree.

I think this has happen to me. I don't know who to believe. Back in March 2009, CPS, who is a affililate of Marauder, contacted me at work regarding a loan I defaulted on with MoneyandMore. Now MoneyandMore hired them at some point to collect debt for them. MoneyandMore denied having a contract with them and demanded payment for the loan. I had already set up payments with CPS. So I contacted CPS and they told me that MoneyandMore was going out of business and they were tring to get all the money they could out of their customers. CPS also said that they were sueing MoneyandMore for breach of contract. CPS continued to collect debts and claimed they sent the funds to MoneyandMore. MoneyandMore deny ever having a contract with CPS or their affilates and also claim that CPS did not send them any money. Therefore, customers who defaulted on loans with MoneyandMore still owe for those loans. CPS offered me a settlement because they wanted to be done with MoneyandMore. Which saved me $54.00. All I know is that CPS coperated with me fully. MoneyandMore did not. They never explained anything to me over the phone. I couldn't get a hold of them by phone. They wouldn't return my phone calls. They just contacted me out of the clear blue sky via email about this debt. When I told them that I was on a payment plan, they sent me a letter stating that I still owed them money and let me know they had no contract with CPS and it's affilates. As I said before, I tried contacting MoneyandMore. They were unreachable and to this day they have never returned my phone calls. Now they have a new collection agency calling me by the name of United States Credit Agency. I told them that I am not paying a dime, because I already paid MoneyandMore. I think I am going to sue MoneyandMore. If CPS is fraudate like they say. Then how the hell did CPS get my information?? They had to of got it from MoneyandMore. Back when I emailed them, I asked this question. They never responed to it. They just sent me that letter. BECAREFUL. DON'T MAKE THE STUPID MISTAKE I DID.

Update on my 11/6/2009 post. MoneyandMore sent me an email a couple days ago stating that a "ROUGE" employee sent those letters out claiming that CPS had no contract to collect money from MoneyandMore customers. The email basically said that it wasn't true. It now states that CPS is indeed their primary collection company. I also found out that they reported me to Experian. Again, do not get a loan from MoneyandMore, I wouldn't be to quick to trust CPS/Maurader. BE CAREFUL.

What can we do as consumers?
I received a statement in Sept. '08 from CPs regarding an amount I apparently owed to Money and More. I wrote to them in Oct., Jan. '09 and again in June '09 with no response. My credit report was reflecting an amount I owed to Marauder beginning in January '09. I was never able to get a response from anyone. Then in July '09 a collections rep from Money and More emailed me stating they had been unable to contact me via telephone. If they had my email address on file I don't know why it took them all this time before sending me any communication. I sent Money and More my bank statement showing the amount owed to them was paid in full in August 2008, and they sent me a "Paid in Full" statement with a zero balance owed. In December '09 I received an email from someone that claims to be the President of Money and More stating a rogue employee had recently given out some false information that Maurader was not the collection comany on my account. Next thing I know there is a collection from Maurader showing up on my credit report again. I think these people hope that for a few hundred dollars it isn't worth a consumers time or effort to try and take them to court, and maybe most people will just send them the money to be done with the matter. I'm still not sure what I am going to do, but will be writing Maurader, Money and More, and all three credit reporting agencies.

I'm worried about this now. I've seen it on my credit report but was unsure as to what it may be. I recently settled with MoneyAndMore, does this mean Marauder Corp will be shown as paid also?

Marauder
I called them and set up a settlement in full for a deletion, I got a confirmation I got the name(TIM DUNCAN) I never recieved the letter he said I would after payment, I called him back 30 days later he said it would be in the mail still have not got it. The account is showing settled for less than full amount and I paid more than the full amount to get a deletion. this account was supposedly for Cash Advance but I was in a hurry and did not get it validated. I am disputing it with the CRA's Monday. This whole Collection Industry is a scam!!!!

I saw a debt on my credit report from this company. Called them and they said that I owed a debt (10 years old). Without thinking I set up a settlement with them on a Friday, giving them my account information. I wanted to get the debt off my credit report. After speaking with my lender, I decided to ask for proof of owning the account. Never received it instead I sent an email to the company on Monday, cancelling the settlement and questioning the debt.
I received numerous of threatening emails regarding the cancellation forwarding some of the emails to my legal department.
When I got paid, I noticed that they ran my card for the settlement. Once I realized that they did an unauthorized debit of my account, I took the emails to my bank and ask for an investigation and reverse the charge. It was granted based on the information provided. Now they are still trying to get money from me. I owe $402 and suppose to be waiting on seeing if the supervisor will grant another debit or extension. I will pay this debt because I do not want any negativity on my credit report. I will never give my account information to another company that out of the blue say I owe them.
This is poor business for consumers and with the recession it doesn't make it better.

Marauder/CPS scam
I got a call from someone claiming to be Jennifer Green at Marauder (sometimes known as CPS), and she said I owed $34 to some check cashing company for a bad check IN 1998! I informed her that I had no knowledge of this, and CPS can't collect on a debt from 11 years ago if they made no attempt to contact me and identify the transaction and the check number. I asked her to send me more information. This sounds like a scam where CPS fabricates a story about a very old debt that an elderly person may have trouble debunking 11 years later. I guess a lot of folks just pay the small debt to stop the harassment. Not me.

This Company is a Fraud
This company added a collection account on my credit report for an unknown debt. I have never had any relationship with this company.
#10 - Broderick Hawkins - 02/23/2011 - 22:31
This is a scam business. There is an unknown debt on my Trans Union credit report from this company. I called and talked to Smith. He was very rude, told me that I'm a gambler and that he collects money for his client from the casino. I told him that I need proof of the debt and he hung up on me. I couldn't believe how rude he was! I'm going to write a letter to FTC reporting this crook.

Thomas Tucker called me at work and said he is from CPS and said i am de-frauding a rebate company on 2004 and i said i dont know anything about a rebate company and i filed a identity theft six years ago and closed my bank account. He said he don't believed me and i'm lying and he keep talking and not listening and he actually called numerous times and calling some of my co-workers and even talked to my supervisor. This is a harassment and humiliating. He is rude and nasty. I trying to get some of my personal information. I filed a complaint at BBB and FTC against him and Marauder CPS.

Fraud!!!
Here we go again The Marauder Corp/Capital whatever!!! Out scamming, scamming, and scamming on poor unsuspecting people again. they never really stopped- The Justice system failed again. !!!! This time separate from my first identity case with them now I am getting calls from a Capital. just Capital, I linked Capital with Marauder on rip-off report-I was not surprise at all!!! They first called me about -passing bad electronic checks and legal paperwork was being drawn up and they have summons and sheriff to come and take me to jail, all in one sentence, and come to my work to arrest me- mine you I am well known at my co much needed- My company said: ok let them, we will bail you out and sue them. Lol. I work for a great company!!! Also left another message stating they will contact my H.R and find out the proper procedure on how to service and arrest me. This was kind of funny, why tell me, just do it Of coarse I know it is un-founded- the way they conducted themselves told me, it is all a big scam.

Then, 10 minutes later they called my friends and left a message braking all the laws in the book, mine you, good friends that know me inside out and to me that is Defamation of character, and what they did was a federal offense and invasion of privacy and stomping on my constitutional rights. That was stupid, cause now my friends can be witnesses, and they are more e pissed off then I am, I have no control over that- maybe Capital should have not left those threats-kind of eye for an eye thing going. My friend told me he called saying he was representing me, and this dummy asked for his bar #, my friend said,: Who said I was a lawyer, you think I need a lawyer? So he engage in a heated battle with my fiend which I think is also against the law they should have just hung up! Capital told my friend that they have no control over how a third party makes contacts-Some company name Locator service of Orange County lol. If I lived in Sacramento It would have been Locator services of Sacramento- You people think Im stupid- No such company!!!

Here is another thing after all the treats and aggressive contacts; they say there is still a window of opportunity for me to get this cleared lol. Oh really???? If I am passing bad checks as you have falsely accused me of and as a law-bidding citizen I want my butt in jail!! Who gives you the right to let someone passing bad checks to go free and commit for crime??? See it all just dont fit in the box!!!! This info is for you people the innocents!!! Protect yourself- I would love false imprisonment, how much you think that is worth???? Scam, scam, scam!!! I patiently await the summons and arrests. Lol.

I will not and will never wire you guys any $$$.I have an investigator and lawyers working on my behalf now too.

Yours truly,

Justice!!

Not fraud.
Marauder, CPS, and NPR are the same company. This is not some type of scam. I used to work for them. They are a collection agency for Payday loan companies. They also do a small amount of collection for auto defaults. So for all you people yelling "FRAUD" and "SCAM". Pay your bills.
#15 - LNTV - 08/26/2011 - 15:54
Not fraud.
If you worked for this company you are INDEED A FRAUD just like they are. You did not USED to work for them, your still an employee. Loser!
#16 - YOU R A FRAUD - 09/12/2011 - 12:47
To Not Fraud
I got a call from your little scammer friends. However, I called the original creditor and was told that they did not use CPS as a collection agency and to ignore any other calls from them. Mr. Thompson at CPS also said I owed it to a website that does not exist. He also called me a liar and when I proved him wrong, he hung up.
#17 - Not Fooled - 11/10/2011 - 15:33
Capital Called me
Received calls from a caller stating they where Capital, exactly like Justice posted. This is indeed fraud, If I had more proof it's related to Ryon Gambill's organization I would be suing. Police reports have been filed, it's all documented, even filed a report with the State Attorney Generals Office. I kept all the messages that were left on my cell, work and friends phones. This idiot has been harassing me for three years for debt that's not mine, even after proving it to him directly.
#18 - Angry in Brea - 11/18/2011 - 17:33
This company should be called Mafrauder corporation because thats EXACTLY what they are, FRAUDS. They practically give themselves away as so with their demeanor. Professional debt collectors aren't rude and don't speak to you the way these people do. A good way to call them out is to play dumb and act like you're not the person their looking for, give another name. If the rep is rude in anyway or the demeanor is off then you KNOW its some BS...DO NOT pay these people a dime!!!! They aren't even a legit collection agency..
