Description

I recieved a call from jasmine with Jackson Avery associates trying to recovery a debt for a bounced check from 1996 that my ex wife had signed and they were targeting me because I was the primary account holder even though she’s the one that signed the check,there was. Ever any notice from Winn Dixie Groceries during the time that it supposedly bounced and nothing from the bank or Worthlessncheck unit in Alabama at that time it’s now 28 years later !!! They wanted 415.00 for a 46.38 check or to settle the claim for 268.50 and they had to have a settlement that day or they would escalate the account to legal to start civil proceedings to try and garnish wages,put a lien on the house and said they could even have our suv that’s financed with a lender Repossessed if we didn’t pay it. They sent documents to sign saying I was responsible for the $268.50 and would pay it on Friday ! I’ve since talked to the District Attorney and found similar cases filed with the BBB and Scam Pulse ! They had a legitimate check from back then the sent me a copy of !
