Got a call from 469-513-9093. Woman identified herself as Chelsea Yates. Said i needed to pay $823 or would go to jail for 120 days for check fraud. Scam. Don't fall for it

Got call same place Mrs graham and spoke to Mr.Levine but different 469-919-5785 from Texas saying processor called several family members saying I needed to get hold of them by today or warrants will be issued for me for check fraud. Or I can pay 1, 102 they will take it off docket. I called my local courts there were no case or charges. But they had my bank name my last four social address etc. Reported to Texas attorney general then to federal consumer protection. I live in Florida its against the law for debtors to make threats.

A guy calling himself David Levine from the LRG Compliance Division called and left me a message saying I was listed as an emergency contact for someone (I wasn't sure if I was acquianted with the person or not, which set off the alarm bells), and said that the person had failed to respond to some "mandatory notifications."  I reported the guy to the FTC.  The phone numbers are:  469-941-0387 (number the call actually came from), and 469-941-0386 (number the message told me to call back).  Get this, the same guy appears to have been doing the same thing under at least one other number:  832-412-4930, in fact, after getting the message I did a google search for "David Levine LRG compliance" and got the reports for that number.

Just answered my phone as I didn't recognize the number and it displays like my inlaws when they are calling from Poland. I was read an old address (said I still lived there) but they threatened me with felony fraud charges as well. FOr what??? Not sure lol They were transferring me and I hung up. Then they called back and left me a message that I need to call them back today before they file felony fraud charges against me & good luck. Ok, go right ahead....lol

Call about my daughter....don't f...k with my children

I got a call yesterday from a Miss Yates saying that I had a debt for $761.42 that has been turned over to the court. The debt is from 2010 they said. I was told that unless I paid them by 4pm ( they called at 2pm ) then I would have two warrants out for out for my arrest. The charges were for felony check fraud ( I never  use checks ). They said I would be in jail for 120 days with no chance of bonding out. After that I would go before a judge and be ordered to pay up to 3 times the amount owed.
This morning I called to get the information on these claims. Asked for the docket # and was told it was 800531. I asked where the warrants/case were from. The guy said "Texas", to which I replied," No s***. I figured as much since I live in Texas and you have my old address. I'm asking what county?"  I was told green county ( there is no green county in texas, no matter how you spell it ). He told me I was going to jail for 7 years and hung up. I called right back and asked to speak to Miss Yates and was told that she was in a deposition at the moment. I kept calling back and either no one answered or I was hung up on. When I finally got thru I was asking for a supervisor and company name. Was told the company name LRG but got no answer for the supervisor. Asked for them to read me all of the info and got switched back over to the guy that works there. He kept avoiding answering my questions saying that they already had ( which I wasn't ). I told him i was going to contact my pops lawyer and that they were going to be paying ME money, they were going to be in a REAL deposition, and I needed  their info so the lawyer could contact them. Got hung up on.
So, I wait a little bit longer and call again. Same run around. The lady I was speaking with still wouldn't answer my questions but did let me know she didn't care whether or not I went to jail because she was going to sleep just fine tonight and put me on hold. The guy picks up, is still very rude and tells me how I've already been giving all info. He then proceeds to play back the audio of me telling him how I'm going to find them and sue them ( I was raising my voice and using some foul language but, never threatened physical harm of any sort nor did I infer it ) and told me that's what he was going to play for the court.   I just laughed at him and said "so what"? Then he told me, " you're a f****ng scumbag" and hung up.
File a report with the proper authorities as I did. F*** these a***ole bullies!!!!!!!

Got a call first thing this morning stating much the same. I was charged with 2 felony counts of check fraud and if I didn't pay the amount of 925.17 I was going to be "thrown in the back of a cop van". I dealt with a man and women Jay Murray and Ms or Mezz Lakes. The business name was not given to me they refused to just kept saying they were the fraud and collections department and such. I asked for documentation to be faxed to me and they told me it wasn't their job and to not call their office again....I'm so upset and freaked out for nothing.

I had a girl by the name of chelsay cally ky work said it was a family emergency. Just to turn around put a guy on the phone stating I was going to he arrested if I didint clear this up.

Does anyone remember the company he said he worked for? I got a call today and im trying togl get to the bottom of this.

I just got a call from them saying if I don't pay 2 thousand dollars by 11:30 today the state where I live was going to charge me with two fraud felony warrants. Is this number a scam?

My mother in law got this phone call today saying the state of alabama was looking for Cinton Washington--my hubby and father in law have the same name-and it was for two suites or something  that. We haven't lived I. The state in over 13 yrs! I'm so glad I looked into this.

Please do report your callers to the FTC, FBI, Dept of Justice and your state's Attorney General.  Are you serious - she said you were going to be sent an "e-warrant?"  What a bunch of buffoons!  As you most likely already know, you never get a heads up you'll be served or arrested.  I've copied and pasted Tamianth's response above - lot of links relating to this scam:

My grandmother received the same call looking for my mother first and then me. Upset my grandmother and told her that I was going to jail for check fraud. Because she was startled just waking up she gave them my contact number and when I spoke with Ms. Yates and someone by Brian Fuller {I believe}, I was informed about a loan with Cash Net USA that was not paid from a closed account and if I did not pay $933.00 by 1pm today. I was going to be sent issued an e-warrant and go to jail with no bail for 120.00 days. I still have the vm. How do I report this?

Some Chelsea Yates called my brother and my sister in SC from this number, 469 941 0386 saying that I am wanted for 2 counts of check fraud. I called back and she refused to tell me what company she is calling from. Do not pay these guys anything because it is a scam.

They called me today at 8:30 waking me up. I knew it was a collector calling when they started out with a stern voice. I was not the person they were looking for. I called them back and told them not to call again, they immediately called back three more times.

Refused to give name or the name of the company  she is working for. Refused to allow me to speak to her supervisor.  Threatened me with a warrant for my arrest on two separate cases.  Got extremely rude and loud, refusing to give me any information I requested and hung up on me when I wouldn't allow her to read her (what sounded like) prepared script.

She called me saying I was Gloria Duncan and refused to give me the name of the company. She also said she was "legal aid". Don't let her con you out of money they are trying to get money gram or money packs. Or gift cards. She said she's with cashnet. I called the company and they said that number is not affiliated with them. Callers beware! Do not send them money!!!

Lady said someone i didn't know be going to jail. I hung up. She called back saying she would continue to call me and was now "my alarm clock"

Called today and said they were witht the CA Franchise Tax Board and that they would be sending someone down to arrest me, I owe no one so I called the state to verify and they are aware this company is using their name

Called my fiancé's aunt and said that he was writing bad checks and was going to be arrested.  She said that he would need bail money when arrested.  The ladies name was Messlake.

Was told I was the emergency contact for Laura Thompson, and that she was going to jail for felony bogus checks. I have no knowledge of anyone named Laura Thompson. Anyone I know that would use my name as an emergence contact would ask me first. I found the fact the caller knew my middle name more than disturbing. Something should be done about these kinds of calls.

Was called today on new years saying my mother was going to go to jail for drafting money from a closed account and we needed to pay a volentary restitution of 800.00 or go to jail in idaho. Would not give any other info or send legal paperwork to support any claim. Ive since tried to call number back but goes to voicemail.
