What is the name of your state? Florida
A relative whom I lived with almost 4 years ago is getting messages on his answering machine. The message states something like" This message is for ....this is ......Im representing the Check Enforcement Bureau. You could possibly be charged with violation of state statues for check fraud and theft by deception." Then they proceed to give a toll free number to contact them and an assigned case #. My relative freaked and called me long distance. I'm now residing in Georgia. He said I should contact them to see if the they will indeed make criminal charges against me. To my recollection I had no outstanding checks in Florida, but did fail to repay 2 Payday loans, where you use you checking account as collateral. It wasnt fraud I had done several with the same company and paid them. This was in 2001 and they have already entered a judgement against me (its on my credit, showing Charged off). Should I respond? What can my relative do to keep them from hounding him?
