1st Victoria Mason called me at work on 8/21 and left a voicemail that I had 2 felony counts of check fraud and to contact them or they would send their info to NC for my arrest. I called them back on 8/22 and call went straight to a voicemail which only stated this was voicemail of Amanda Hill to leave my name and case number. I left my name and told her I was returning their call. I received a 2nd call on 8/25 from a lady stating she was Amanda Hill but it was the same lady who left me the message on 8/21 stating she was Victoria Mason. She told me that I did not call back in time and they had turned my case over to the DA in my state (these people had my SS# and bank info). I told her I had no idea what she was talking about and she forwarded me to their "attorney" Frank Johnson. Mr. Johnson told me that I had 3 count of felony check fraud against me but if I could resolve the case today he would call the DA in my state to see if they would drop the charges. He put me on hold then came back a few minutes later stating if I could pay 2174.71 today they could drop the charges. I again told him I had no idea what they were talking about and he said well them just pay 1674.71 and they will drop charges. I told him I would have my lawyer contact them and he became furious stating if you do not pay this right now you will need to go to the courthouse today and turn yourself in and be arrested. I told him then that is what I will do but not until I called my lawyer and he hung up on me. I called my local Sherrif's Dept and they told me to go to the Attorney General website and make a fraud scam report. If these people call you tell them you are going to contact your state Attorney General's office---DO NOT SEND THEM ANY $ OR GIVE THEM ANY OF YOUR INFO.

This so called "Johnson Carter Associates" did essentially the same thing, as aforementioned post, indirectly to me today. They called my mother and my boss, claiming to be an attorney's office, and told them they were trying to contact me in regards to two accounts of check fraud. First off, I don't own checks nor write any. A collections agency, or an attorney's office working for one, would never give out "said" debtors information about the situation to a third-party. They informed both my mother and boss, that if I did not resolve this matter by 1pm today, they would have a warrant out for my arrest. Luckily, my father is an attorney himself and he called them on my behalf. Right after my father asked this "attorney" to provide his bar number, the person quickly hung up on him. Do not give these people more information of yours than they may already have, and you should definitely do not send them any money- it's a scam!
