I got a phone called the other day telling me that in 2010 there was a check written to the company for under $50 on a closed account. I have no idea how this happened other then maybe my then boyfriend paid them when they came to the deliver while I was gone using the checks from the closed account. The problem is... I have no proof *I* didn't write it. After the phone call (They told me they were going to file for a warrant) I called the Bank... and sure enough there had been TWO checks written on the closed account. One for $50 and one for $10. I need to know what can happen to me! Please help... I'm a single mom with 3 kids and currently living off SSI from my little girls CF...

First don't trust them over the phone, it could well be a scam, they may have even faked a check and sent it though or the check was part of a larger fraud done.

Demand to see a copy of the check, and demand to get their request in writing.

The threat of a warrant is just that ( most likely) at this point,

This could be anyone over the phone, and it may or may not even be who they are saying there are.

But assuming, it is the bank, then you reimburse them for $60 and that should be the end of it. Just get a receipt and acknowledgment
