More details to this question:
Hello, I have recieved a call from a man who says he works for the state of Florida and is representing a collection agency. The loan is legit, it was for $300 and due to bad circumstances I was in defalut and this was over 2 years ago. Now this man is telling me I will be served and go to court and gave me a dicket number. I searched this in my county court records and find no record of any of this. He is saying I am being charged with check fraud. He says they want $2000 and if I take the settlement of $1300 they will drop all charges and nothing will happen. I dont what to do about this. Is this legit? Are they scamming me? I have read about allot of scams like this and when I google this mans name, which is Marshall ___ __________ his name came up and the person who posted said he was a scam artist. And this man didnt say anything more than he worked for the state of Florida, when i askled exactly who he worked for. I dont know what to do

Its probably a scam. You will have to sort out whether its legitimate yourself or hire an attorney at an hourly rate to help you if needed.
