Same thing They say they are about to file a case on a bad check I wrote. I have not written a check in years.
Received calls from 941-347-4820 last night and the guy said he was about to file a case but if I called back could go to mediation. 302-703-7141 called today and the woman said she was with "The Investigative Unit"
and that my case was being reviewed for possible action, if I wanted to talk to an agent press 1 or call them at 888-551-5070 or call Direct at 302 703-7141.
It sounds like they try to scare people into settling via a mediator on something they never did. Not saying this is fact as I just remember a guy I had on bond one time saying one of his con's was the above pitch explaining lawyer fees, court costs, damages, interest, ect even on a 50.00 check would become 5-8k and that he had a 24 hour window to settle for $2,000.00 if the person said I dont have that much he would say "I can only spend a few minutes on each case as they threw 1,000's on me. Tell me the most you can raise by 11:30am tomorrow and I will call and see if I can get them to accept it. It will need to be paid by CC or sent Western Union as by 1:00pm the case will be filed. He laughed and said "Of coarse I took whatever I could get and if I thought they were good for a couple hundred more I had another deal for that.
Again all I know is I have not written any checks in years and a bad check must go through a process.
