Check And Merchant Services Fraud Division They said if I didn't pay them today I would have heavy fines, arrested and imprisonment. Ripoff White Plains New York

These people are the lowest of the lowest. They are bottom feeders. They threaten, twist facts, demand money on the spot, and lie to try and get what they want.

I was contacted by Check and Merchant Services Fraud Division on my cell phone WHEN I WAS AT WORK and they said that I owed them $269.00 for two $10.00 check that they said I wrote out over 7 years ago! I asked if they could prove this by faxing or mailing me a copy of the bad checks in question. They told me "No we don't do that." I asked why I should pay $269.00 for $20.00 worth of bad check from over 7 years ago that they can not prove to me that I wrote. Their responce was "If you don't you will be arrested, fined and put in prision for check fraud!" I told the woman that x-mass is only 5 days away and the only extra money I had at the time was for my kids x-mass gifts. Then the little *&!$@ said that's really not my problem. I just told her that I would send what I could to get her off my back.

I then tried to contacted my Lawyer, but he was on vacation for two weeks. Not knowing if they could really do it I Western Unioned $50.00 to them, and said that I would send more next month.

After my Lawyer got back I told him what happened and he contacted them and told them that all future contact would have to go through him. He is now getting my $50.00 back plus the Western Union fee's of $13.00, and putting together a law suit.
