I found a a fraudulent account on my credit report. Challenged the claim and the file was removed from my credit report. Now I am getting calls from a company called Tri-Financial out of New York state. They are a collection agency that has this fraudulent account and they are trying to collect. Here is the real problem: Since I stated that the account was a case of fraud they are claiming that they can claim fraud against me and they are going to file fraud charges with the district attorney in my county. I get calls stating a fraud case has been filed then I get more calls stating they are about to issue a warrant for fraud. Personally, I think this is a "scare tactic" they are using to attempt to collect on this account.
My question is...can they really file fraud charges or is this a scare tactic?
I'd like nothing more than to tell them to take their scare tactic and shove it.
