They called me yesterday and they called my cousin because they "claim" I had her down for an emergency contact. I spoke to a Melinda Blair who transferred me to a Chelsea Yates who told me that if I don't send the $888.50 by 12pm they would be turning over my files to the local police dept and they would issue warrants for 2 check fraud charges. I told them to go ahead because I never wrote checks. We'll see what happens

They said they were legal research company and her name was Mrs. Blake. They were trying to get information about my family. Said one of them was going to jail. THIS IS A SCAM. PEOPLE.

Same company called me, same story. Belinda Blair left me a voicemail when when I called back I spoke to Mr. Levine.
The called my sister-in-law and told them that I was going to be arrested for a debt (which is illegal).
They told me to have a nice hot meal before I spend the next four months in jail.
I called the city, county and state and no one has anything on me so far as warrants go. I have issued a formal complaint with the FTC and the Attorney General.

Scammers. They threaten you with arrest, charges for fraud, etc to scare you into paying some bogus debt. Debt is civil, not criminal, so you would not be arrested. Report them to the FTC, FBI and your state's Attorney General.
