Got a call from either Thomas Lawson or Thomas Larson, from the Fraud and Worthless Check Division, stating that my name came up in a check fraud investigation with another person named Lisa Pena.  He was obviously reading from a script and I never answer my phone from numbers I don't know, so he was forced to leave a message.  I will not be calling back as it was obviously not legit.  Hope people read this and figure out it's a scam and don't lose money.  Good Luck.

It is legit, I got a call from the same Thomas Lawson. My name was on a list of persons associated with the person they were looking for (in my case, my ex of 4 years).

we received a call from Thomas Lawson who gave us a case number. I called and it was for a bogus check to Ace Cash Express owing $624 in April 2008 for Rodger County in Oklahoma. However, I was not living there at this time. So I got smart and called Ace Cash Express and was told that this operation is scammers. I actually owe less and the Cash Express will work with you to make payments. So before calling these people back, call the actual company and tell them who you talk and the case number and you will be surprised that is most likely will be scammers.

I am also calling this Thomas Lawson back and let him know that I will be reporting his company to the Police Dept for invalid information and that I owe quite a bit less than what he told me.

Received this call too. I called the actual cash express and found out that he is a scammer. The lady was quite nice and made arrangements for the payday to be paid in smaller amounts. He tried to tell me I owed $200 more than the actual bill. I will be calling him back and let him know I caught onto his scamming act.

I received a call from a guy named Thomas Lawson, saying I was involved in some fraud with someone named Michael Leach, who I do not know.  I checked the number online and found this number is connected with a scam.

I received the same call from Thomas Lawson looking for a person that they thought I was affiliated with who was a person of interest in their case number. He does appear to be reading from a script. I am not returning the phone call. His number is 832-377-3051. Does appear to be a scam.

I do not know who this person is the person he is speaking of I do not know,

I just received a call from Thomas Lawson. I called back and it goes to a voice mail immediately. I got a call back within a minute from Mr. Fast Talker himself. I asked for the name of his company, responds garbled. I tell him I have researched online and this appears to be a scam or fraud so I want more information about his company. He says, "the Internet also says Elvis is alive. Then yells and hangs up. Obviously a scam, or company illegally attempting to find debtors.

I received a call as well from Thomas Vaussen and he told me that I was simple! LOL  This is a scam!!! Do not give out your information.

Got a call from Thomas Lawson of Weinberg Cockran who said they were looking for someone that I was affiliated with.  He referenced a Case # and said something about their Check Division.  After research it looks like they are scammers.

Below is what was reported on 800notes re: T:210-704-1240 by Emily...and my call was almost identical.

He used a "pseudo-lawyer" phrase "Govern yourself accordingly" and say they are from the "worthless check division". Number one: Non-payment of a debt is a CIVIL matter, not a criminal matter. It is not considered a "worthless check" or a "check" in any way.  Number two: You CANNOT be arrested for a CIVIL OFFENSE. The name says it all! AGAIN, IT IS NOT A CRIMINAL OFFENSE TO NOT PAY A DEBT OF ANY KIND.

If you look at their listing at www.lookupbook.com,  They use illegal tactics to get people to pay for debts that don't exist. They were actually licensed to do collections but their license expired in December 2010. Therefore, what they are doing is a crime punishable by fines and/or jail time. . DO NOT GIVE THEM ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE THE CRIMINALS, NOT YOU!!!!!Caller: Weinberg Cockran Coulson and Irwin

First call, claimed he's with the fraud division of Kirkland and Ellis - when I called the number back he answered (?something something "Prosecution").  He's calling my number asking for me by name - regarding a friend of my husband's (not a famiy member - and he's asking for me not my husband).  I spoke to him once and handed the phone to my husband who talked to him about his friend and said he'd pass on the message.  Today, he left a rather threatening phone message and when I called back would not answer my questions about who he was or what department he was in.  When I asked a second time he told me "you better get a bible" and hung up on me.

Have been harassed on the phone and via message machine daily the last four days by a man who calls himself Martin or Mark Anderson from 832-377-3051. He says that he works in the fraud division of the law firm of Kirkland and Ellis. He refers to a friend of mine who used to my wife's name as a reference. Yesterday my wife called him and told him to stop calling and he called once again today.

"...my name is Martin Anderson and I work with the fraud and worthless check division. I have a individual by the name of Lydiana Serrano that had been named as a person of interest in a ongoing case and your name came up as an affiliate of this individual. I need you or either Lydiana Serrano to contact my office immediately at 832 (the fourth number wasn't audible, as if he didn't say it at all, but the number he was calling from started with 377 so I figure it's the same.) 773049. (Long pause. Sounded like the call was over.) Regarding case number 379937. Govern yourself accordingly and good luck."

Sounds like it was either a really good AI, or someone reading from a script. And yes, he used 'a' instead of 'an' twice.

I had the very same massage who is he.

I have call from them, this time they are  Leven or some similar word PROSECUTION. Call them back was answering machine, they call me back in 5 min. They definitely scam. Wonder what about Law Enforcement, what they doing in this case?

>what is the fraud and worthless check division? WHO IS MARTHA EGGLESTON? THEY CALLED FROM 832-261-0005

This scammer is calling my place of work and did so three years ago also.  I know this has nothing to do with me but I have a common name and they must have googled me in this city.  How do I make them stop?

I received a call today from my cell phone that a man name Carl Anderson claiming that I have a check fraud and wants me to pay restitution..He commented to me that I will he has a legal paper to run to the county office and wait for my arrest if I don't resolved it.. He then said in order to solve this issue he wants me to pay $1600 dollars and he will drop the case, it then dawn me that this is a scam and there is no way somebody would call and demand money and close it right away.  So I asked him for the information to fax to me and give me his fax number, but he could not even give me a number right away and pause a bit over the phone..He then said see you in Jail before hanging up..
 Be careful everyone there are many many scamers around every states, even over seas..

My husband recieved the same call.  Its a major scam.  They tried to tell me that he got a payday cash advance and didn't pay the money back.  I find that not true since we never used/use a payday loan service.  We have no reason to as we are finacially comfortable.  its a big SCAM!!!! the number he called from was 1-210-625-7279.  When I asked for information to give my husband he gave me this number 210-764-4106 with a fake docket number and an amount of $1450.00 made payable to him. Don't give him anything!!!!
