Taking me to court
Complaint
Scared
Country: United States
I just received an email as well saying Case file number and that I am being legally prosecuted in the court house within a couple of days. Saying Collateral check Fraud, Theft by deception and Electronic Fund Transfer. I don't know who these people are. They said they are reporting this to my employer and the fbi.
They gave me a phone number of 1-920-624-4888 to contact.

If I were you, I would turn the tables on them and go to the fbi first. File complaints with your local AG, the FTC, notify your local police and complete a suspicious incident report, and, if there is anything in that email about wiring money, contact the secret service. But under no circumstances would I call that phone number back. They are the criminals, not you.
I've gotten several e-mails from the "fbi," from a gmail address, informing me that I would be arrested later in the day since I was refusing to respond to their e-mails. This was several weeks ago, and I'm still waiting for them to arrive with the handcuffs.
I've always felt that this was the dictum: If you have to announce something, loudly and with hyperbole, you've really got nothing to announce. That's what all of this big and ugly debt collection nonsense is - and I firmly believe that it is all nonsense.
Unfortunately, it will continue until EVERYBODY that they contact tells them to go take a hike. That is, as long as a dollar can be made - because, as we all know, this is 100% motivated by making a profit - it will continue.
They are a bunch of liars and fakes, just like this "debt".
They are looking for suckers to respond. Ignore them.
If they are calling you, they are probably using VoIP.
You could check with the various VoIP carriers, Vitelity, Paetec, Level 3, Winstar, etc, and if it's one of their numbers, report it's use for fraud and extortion, Maybe get it cut off.
