Check Processing Bureau, Legal Services ***WARNING:This Is A Scam!*** New York New York

A few days ago, I was contacted via mail by a company called Check Processing Bureau. The letter states they have captioned 3 seperate fraudulent checks, and since I have not responded to previous letters (of which I never received), they are suspending the checks, and transferring this claim to CRIMINAL COURT. Furthermore, they inform me that this case is now CLOSED. I have attempted to contact Mr. Doug Lewis, of whom I received the letter, and have left at least five voice mails, never to receive a call back. I got curious today, and thought maybe there would be a website with alternative contact numbers which would help me contact this ellusive company. I pulled up Google, and typed in the company's name. On came a slew of fraud and scam warnings about this same company!

About six years ago, I did infact write some bad checks, and ended up going to jail for them! Now, after three years of lesson learning experiences in the state corrections system for women, I thought I had everything together, and my head firmly placed back on my shoulders... My debts are paid off, or at least consolidated, or so I thought, until I received this letter. Anyone who can come close to imagining my situation, can understand the mental strain I have gone through in the past few days, and the stress this fraudulent company has put me through. I couldnt believe there could possibly be any checks still out there, unresolved. (Believe me, I've learned my lesson when it comes to writing checks). In fact, I have done away with my checking account all together!

The sad thing, is that I would have been more than willing to pay the owed $782.51 to keep myself out of trouble, had the company ever returned my phone calls. I even visited with my loan officer about taking a loan to pay off this debt I had no knowledge of, out of fear of being prosecuted for the same crime twice! That is outrageous!

After reading several testimonials, the only thing left in my mind to do was to contact my local Attorney General's Office, and file a claim. I still awaiting a response.

If this company is ever brought to justice, I will be there pointing my finger, along with everyone else who has been violated by these phoney collectors.
