Hello my name is Emmanuel Burgos and I have created this page to gather people and put a stop to harassing, intimidating, insulting and threatening communication from creditors and collectors that are involved with Westbury Ventures and its affiliates. Another individual and I have communicated and agreed to begin this lawsuit.
I received a phone call in 2007 from Westbury Ventures regarding a payday loan that I supposedly took out. They refuse to send me verification of the loan, they threaten me by saying that they will be garnishing my wages on a particular day. They will not give me an address. They have cursed at me, threatened me, violated my FDCPA rights and the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Practices Act in various occasions (my hometown).
From the day that I began receiving these disturbing phone calls and emails I began to do some research on my rights as a consumer and have learned all the FDCPA rights and act 505. Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act. My rights as a consumer continued being violated so I consulted with one of the top 10 Attorneys in Illinois, David P. Leibowitz. He is very interested in this case. After doing some research David Leibowitz concluded that these companies were fraud and scammers. He is working with three other attorneys in the Chicago land area to put this crime scene together. They are criminals and will be charged as criminals. The only thing we as consumers need to do is to enter this class action lawsuit as a community. We are looking at FDCPA rights violations, ACT 505. Chapter 815 violations and possibly RICO ACT convictions. There is a substantial amount of money involved in regards to our winnings. If your rights have been violated by the below named companies:
BROADMORE VENTURES
THE LOAN SHOP
EXPRESS CASH
XPRESS CASH
WESTBURY VENTURES
PLAZA PROCESSING
ASAP
PD6 VENTURES

| Threaten to fille all sort of legal charges on me. Borrowed 300, and paid interest of 90 per month, until I had to pay income taxes. My account was short and Westbury Ventures docked my account a wopping $900 with the weekly charges of 20, 100, 200, 150. What can I do. I am willing to pay what ever I owe. I was put in an unsolicited situation. |

I've never heard of this place. Which state are they in? Hopefully its a 1 party state and you can tape without their permission. You would then have them on violations and be able to get a cool $1,000 out of them!
Files chargebacks on them if they took out what they weren't suppose to. I would be irate if someone began tagging my account for money.
It sounds like a lawsuit in the making, but civil cases will be faster for you. I would participate in both if they pulled these shenanigans on me! |

unfortunately you cannot record their calls without consent. However we currently have 11 people that have joined our lawsuit and there is enough evidence to charge them with FDCPA violations, deceptive business act violations and possibly RICO ACT. They currrently have 5 lawsuits pending and 3 settled lawsuits. This is a big company and they all belong to Broadmore. They are deffinately banned from the state of California in doing any business in this field.
-Advice I give to everyone, find out if payday loans are legal in your state.
-send westbury ventures certified letter stating that you want validation of the debt and that you only wish to be contacted by postal mail.
-tell westbury ventures that the phone call is being recorded and that if they do not agree and consent to the recording that you will hang up and that the law protects you from being contacted via phone, email or any other sort of communication that is not postal mail
If you would like to participate in our suit please visit westburyventuresscam.com
we are holding a nation wide class action suit and are also currently involving the press
Westbury Ventures is in wilmington delaware and their address is
Westbury Ventures
2207 concord pike
suite 505
wilmington, DE
19803
any correspondents should only be by certified mail.
LINDA please save any evidence that they have of the threats because they DO NOT take legal action against anyone and till this day none have been filed. They are violating the FDCPA by threatning and knowingly not taking action against you. I would like more information about your case Linda please email me at email deleted for your safety- Richard or check out my site at westburyventuresscam.com to get more information or to contact me directly from there. The same goes for anyone else that has problems with these scums |
