The so called lawyer is guilty of violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and can be sued for damages of $1500 plus your attorney fees.

The unpaid payday loan is a loan and you can be sued for failure to pay. I do not think that the courts would find check fraud.

You may call Monday for a free consultation.
