I have never used check into cash, but apparently someone who did used me as a contact. Therefore why I'm receiving the calls. If you're in the same situation simply answer the call and tell them not to contact you anymore and that should stop the calls, as I believe, legally if they do not honor your request you can sue. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. (not that I would go through all that trouble)

Received this message on my cell phone voicemail this afternoon. They called from a blocked number. I see from other posts they are associated with a check cashing establishment. I've been getting tons of calls from different collection companies, and keep telling them that they have reached the wrong number. I do not know this person they are calling for, and have told them to stop calling me several times. Pretty shady, that they call from different numbers so I have to file complaints numerous times for each different number! I've been blessed to never have needed the services of a check cashing place, and will be staying FAR away from them, now that I know some of their deceptive tactics.
"This message is intended for [First & Last Name]. Hi, [First Name] my name is (inaudible), and I’m calling you from Bureau of Crime Investigation. The very second you receive this message, I need you or your (recent/retained?) attorney (inaudible) to return the call (inaudible) is extremely time-sensitive. My name is (inaudible), and the hotline to my direct division is 888-708-8647. I repeat, it’s 888-708-8647. Do not try and disregard this message, and return the call as soon as possible. Now, [First Name], if you don’t return the call, or I don’t hear from your attorney, either, the only thing I can do for you is wish you good luck as the situation unfolds on you, and you will be the soul responsible for further legal consequences. So take good care of yourself and call me on my number before it’s too late. Again, my call back number is 888-708-8647. Do not disregard this message, and return the call as soon as possible, otherwise, you might be in the deep trouble."
They called me just now - around 10am- asking if I was me. They then asked me if I knew someone named "Robert M." is (I forgot the last name). I said no, I don't. They then said (by the way, "they" was a lady speaking) something like "Hm, why would he leave you as the contact"...something like that. Then she said "That's interesting." Then right away she said "well, Goodbye!". Not giving a chance to ask questions. By the way, I'm also just 16 years old.
