Anyone else have/had Marauder Corp on CR?

I have googled this company and it seems they were either shut down or not a ligitimate collector. I even came across a copy of a Warrant for the CEO in Virginia. 

They are reporting a cash advance that I had, but I had talked to the employee that works there and asked for an extension to repay and she agreed & I paid it, but then it ended up on my CR under Marauder corp. I don't know if I should just file a dispute to have it removed or try to contact this bogus company???


Just wondering if anyone else has this company on their CR....

Re: Anyone else have/had Marauder Corp on CR?

I have them on my EX report for the same thing.  I thought about sending a PTD but it drops in 2014 so might let it lie...

I'm really considering just disputing & crossing my fingers that they don't validate, they haven't updated since 2010!

Re: Anyone else have/had Marauder Corp on CR?

Oh interesting.......  I hadn't even noticed that.  They haven't reported on  mine since 8/2011....  I assumed that since something is still showing it's because the CA reports it each month still.  So you googled and found them not in biz any longer?

 

I'm looking at my EX and they have strange reporting.  EX gives me a history while TU only shows the most recent date 8/2011.  They reported Feb/Apr/Aug/Sep in 2010, then only July & Aug in 2011 then nothing since...

Re: Anyone else have/had Marauder Corp on CR?

Yep they reported the same way on mine! Well I read that the government shut down a couple of CA's b/c of their rediculous collection practices, and even where a Marauder employee contacted a lady at her work threatening if she didn't pay by the end of the day then they would come to her work and arrest her... she sued and won. I haven't seen anything good about this company and don't even know if they still exist. 

Obviously after reading these things, I'm not even willing to contact them directly. So I emailed Cash Advance to see if there was anything they could do considering my acct should not have even went to collections, but now I'm debating just disputing with the CRA's. 

Here's the link to the arrest warrant for the CEO:

Whoa.  Lot's of good reading on this one.  If a DV is mailed and they are non-existent or don't respond, what happens? If it's not being reported I don't understand how it still shows on a report.  So much to learn.  Smiley Frustrated
