Called several family members, stating that we were to be arrested for fraud, but would not say anything further. When I called, I was told that we were on video survelliance - when I asked what we were doing, she started to get angry, and hung up on me. I called back and asked her what company she worked for, she just said Fraud and Economic Department. If I'm being charged with fraud, I have a right to know who I supposedly defrauded. I called the local PD, who stated that this is a scam, but I'm still worried. In the back of my mind, I know that nobody is going to call and warn you if they're coming to arrest you - they just show up. I just have no idea what this is about - I asked if it was a payday loan, and was told no. I do owe a couple payday loans, but I make bi-weekly payments on one, and monthly payments on the other, and they're both through local companies. I'm just not sure what to do here.
