Same thing happened to me, same name, claiming to be an investigator Jackie Lawson from a different # 513-426-9739 & she said she was with a Foreign Investigations Unit in Ohio. That she has to felony counts that will be charged against me if I dont make a pmt for 860.00 by the end of the day. If not I will be arrested by Police & will need to turn myself over to them. She mentioned that a Unit pickup will occur that I will need to show for County Court in the A.M, that there will be a warrant issued for fraud. Supposivly I had taken a Payday loan from a company in 2008, and closed my acct. She had alot of info on my bank etc....scary! (Identity theft)? so I asked her why I have not recieved anything as far as contact until now? and who is the company who borrowed me money? she got upset and said "YOU DONT KNOW??" I said, NO, tell me. she was VERY VERY rude. She said I commited a crime. And I will be arrested. She hung up on me. I called her back and asked her Identification #, she said she doesnt have to tell me. I told her SHe needs to no longer communcate to me any further that this call is being recorded , I have an atty representing me & tried to give he his name & #. she said she cannot call out, BUT SHE CALLED ME. She was very threatening & could not provide any info. I contacted the County Court to inform them of this. I asked them of Criminal Court in the morning, as they mentioned they dont have court in the morning. I have reported this to the FTC, BBB, and my attorney. I know it is not right to accuse someone without the proper Court proceedings, nor wrongfully accuse someone without proper Court proceedings. I use to work in a Criminal Prosecuters office for 6 years, I never heard of this. I read alot of testimonies online on VERY SIMILAR incidents, & I think if anyone should be charged, it should be these people interupting innocent peoples lives. Sad thing is some people get so scared that it causes alot of problems for them. I have to say that I am very disturbed by this & feel like I am a victim. I dont think that this is proper for someone to interrupt someones lives & cause emotional stress!



Caller: United Checking & also Foreign Investigations

Call Type: Debt Collector

My niece got a call from phone number 513-426-9739, claiming that she needed to provide them with my contact information, because I was being charge with 2 felony counts, of fraud, and that I was going to be picked up by the police.  They are absolutely awful, the are bill collectors from an old debt, and they are using these scare tactics hoping people will give them their banking information, and they find all kinds of way to get in touch with people you may know and call and hope to get a link, people like them need to be stopped, there should be a law against them claiming the work the government, and other agencies...
