A representative from " Nationwide Intermiediary Services LLC '' called me at my place of employment when I was not there and spoke to XXXX of my co-workers telling her I was being sued and there is a case with the Superior Court and gave her case numbers and detailed information about this issue. 
I called her back the same day and she told me I was being sued and that the Superior Court was involved and had a case against me. She went on to tell me I could resolve the issue by paying this debt today. I took her info and told her I would need to call her back. 
My wife and I both spoke with her about an hour later on speaker phone and she repeated most of what she had told me in my previous conversation with her but also went on to say that I could do " jail time '' due to check fraud and a list of other reasons. She also stated we had to resolve it today and that it was the deadline and that they already had a case against me and they would win, that we were targets because of our income. 
We chose to make a payment ( we were scared ) but are concerned after reading online about the company she says she is representing in this matter, She stated that " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' is who she is representing but then there is also another company involved called XXXX XXXX XXXX. WHO ARE WE PAYING and why? 
We have been completely strong-armed into paying this huge amount of money solely out of fear because of the threats and the personal ( and false ) information communicated at my place of employment. We don ' know where to turn for help in this matter.
