Called claiming they were from the "fraud and worthless claim division." A woman who claimed to be a "senior investigator" got on the phone and asked me for my social security number. When I refused, she started screaming, claiming that they were going to have me picked up by the police and I could then verify it to the judge if I liked. I still refused, and she said, "I hope you like it in jail," and hung up.
I haven't had a checking account in almost 7 years, and the statute of limitations on bounced checks is generally around 2 years, meaning this is some company who purchased a check I might've bounced a decade ago, for pennies on the dollar, and they're going to try and scare me into paying them for it.
These are bottom feeders of the worst kind. If they call and threaten you, don't worry. They have zero ability to do anything.
