Just to add a new voice to the thread. I had received a spurious invoice back on 31/8/2010 and followed up then by phone (no success) and email, with a response from their helpdesk :-
Please be advised that we have closed the account back to investigate

Many thanks

Today I received a letter asking for payment but dated 5th August! It's all tosh and I have read the posts here with interest. Will be contacting Action Fraud in the morning.
For information the account they wish to use is : A/c 73663361, Sort Code : 404319 (HSBC Bank), A/c Name : MCO Loan payments account.
On the first instance of this at the end of August, there was a thread here forming about this, which mysteriously disappeared the next day without trace!
Thanks to all the hardworking souls who are digging out all the information on this. Let's hope the relevant authorities take some action to clamp down on it so we all don't have to spend time, money and stress on protecting ourselves from this scam.0 -
Anyone here from Moray (Press & Journal), Scotland or Monifieth, Dundee (Courier)? I have alerted the newspapers which carried your stories asking them to let you know about this web site and hopefully, they have contacted you and got you onboard??0

Thanks for posting this. The bank details are the same as some of us. Have they asked you to call 0844 576 5731 or a different number?
I'm glad you've read the posts.....I wouldn't suggest contacting them by email again.0 -

Phillip - we cannot emphasise how important it is that you call Action Fraud soonest (they are open until 8 pm weekdays) Do NOT select #1 button re MCO specifically at the start of your call - just hang on and someone will answer0 -

If you can't get through on that number, look up the number for Intrum Justitia Ltd. in Liverpool. There's a 0151 number been posted here recently that someone had used. There's also an 0844 number on their website that you could try, but you just get through to someone who wants to collect payment!0 -
Can I just say thanks to everyone who has posted information on this forum. I have just spent the last hour reading everyones comments. I have received my second letter today, dated 12th August from Helploan, the first was dated 3 Sept from MCO Capital Ltd wanting payment for the usual £513.00.
The first letter wanted me to make payment over the phone on a number 0844 576 2340. Having looked them up on the internet and seeing this forum i did nothing. i requested a credit report from Experian, finding that MCo had made a check, I notified experian who are investigating and have suggested I let Equifax know and also suggest contacting CFAS.
Having recieved my second letter tonight I have contacted Action Fraud who are going to call me back this week as they have been inundated with calls re MCO .
The account details are no. 73663361 sort code 404319 HSBC Bank
There was a new phone number 0844 576 5731
I do not want to contact them as I don't want them to get my phone number or my email address.
I liked the little touch at the end of the letter....We thank you for choosing helploan and hope to deal with you again in the near future.
I will wait to hear from Action fraud before taking any further action.0
