Can a payday loan company take you to court, press charges, and sue you if you don't pay the loan back?

I have a loan company calling me threatning to press charges and sue for a $500.00 loan i did not pay back. They are claiming these are federal charges. I keep having people tell me they are just trying to scare me into paying. I'm not sure what to think about it.

Update:

so even if they can sue and press charges, will they actually do it? because alot of people around me and at my job say they have been through the same thing and the companies were just trying to get them to pay. I tried to tell them i could make payments but they wanted the full amount yesterday, and i just dont have it.

    In the current personal loan market your best choice is https://tr.im/perloan818113 the reason I say this is because things are always changing. After the 2008 financial meltdown. Underwriting rules have been changing and they continue to make small changes all the time. It really doesn't matter if you have perfect credit or bad credit there are options for just about any situation these days. With that said its going to be impossible to answer your payday loan company take question.

    My recommendation is grab a quote from my previously mentioned place. You'll be able to see different kinds of programs and rates available for your personal financial profile . Not matter if its an emergency, vacation, or for private reasons; just about any situation is considered. No matter the credit or current job situation. Just let them know what you got and see whats possible from a top provider in the industry today.

    Collectors will say just about anything to scare people into paying up. You did not commit a crime, so you cannot be prosecuted. You can be sued. If you have no attachable assets, they can get a judgment against you, but will not be able to collect. In the county where you live, call the local bar association and find out what you can do to curb the harassment. You may have to pay a lawyer to write a letter, telling the bill collectors to cease.

    How does Trading Work? I can say you that take a look at this site http://trading-secret.keysolve.net/ may be it can help you.

    It 's one of the best course about trading. It seems like Trading is almost totally based on Macro-economics. It also strikes me that since there are not nearly as many currencies as there are stocks/bonds/derivatives etc etc, there must be a large number of market players in each currency bracket. So logically, currencies must be very liquid true? Also, what is the risk of Currency trading, high or low? When I read the business section every day I notice that the Canadian loonie moves hardly a tenth of a cent on a regular basis (in comparison to the US dollar). So it seems like theres very little room for growth in currencies unless you leverage. On that note, whats the maximum leverage permitted for forex trading. I know in stocks its x2, and in derivatives its x10. Anyway the only way to know how to start a profitable buisness is by following some methods like the one that I suggested.

    Did you ever get a response for this? My problem is that they put on so much interest and charges that I can't pay a $300 loan anymore.

    Uh...as to if they are federal, probably not; depending on ifyoou wrote a bad check that covers the loan; that's sometimes how that scam worked. Everything else there is accurate. Plan on paying legal fees, costs and interest if they sue; probably closer to $750
