This may be a scam call as it has all the trappings of one. As a general rule, one cannot be "sent to jail" simply for not paying a debt. However, the problem is your husband never paid the loan back so it remains possible that this could cause problems for his probation or at least subject him to a civil lawsuit, etc. Its a bit of a catch-22.
