I just got a message from Thomas Lawson with the fraud and worthless check division looking for my daughter. He stated she was a known affiliate of someone that none of us know at all! The number they called from was 330-777-4227. The caller ID did show Patricia Degre. However, the person they "said" they were looking for had the same name as a person that collections agencies were calling here fior about 6-8 months ago. This person is unknown to us and those calls stopped after I let them know they had obviously been given a wrong number. Funny how it just so happens "Thomas Lawson" picked up that name! That made me very suspicious and I started researching. How in the world can people get away with this?!?!?!? I am so glad these blogs were out here to warn us.
Be warned......it's looks like they are moving numbers quite a bit.
And there is back ground noise like a call center of some sort.
Thomas Lawson calls on 9-8-11 tells me to cover yourself according and good luck. Call no. back tell him to remove my no. and he gets smart with me and hangs up. Told him didnot know person he is looking for, and to remove my no. hangs up again.

I received a call on Friday, September 16th saying that he was trying to reach my ex-husband of 13 years and my name had been affiliated with his on check fraud. I WENT OFF! I called back that day when I got home from work. Of course, they were closed. I just talked to him this morning and he asked me if I had any contact with my ex. And I said not if I can help it. But, I told him I did have his cell phone # and gave it to him. He said he would take my number off the list. Hallelujah. Now my ex can deal with whatever this mess is.
Keep getting calls from Thomas Lawson 330-777-4227 saying he is with the check fraud division and for me or my lawyer to contact him, cover yourself and good luck.
