I have been able to verify from additional victims that they too received phone calls within the last 24 hours from a “Deborah” at SurroGenesis USA requesting that additional funds be provided to a “new holding company”. According to an archived copy of SurroGenesis’ website, a Deborah Haworth worked at SurroGenesis USA as their Surrogate Program Administrator.

It takes unmitigated gall to make any request for funds given what we now know. While it may be well-intended employees of SurroGenesis trying to make amends for the actions of Tonya Collins, I cannot discourage you enough from having any contact with SurroGenesis or authorizing them to take any steps on your behalf.

Needless to say, anyone working with SurroGenesis should not provide any additional funds or information to anyone identifying themselves as affiliated with SurroGenesis USA or Michael Charles Holding Company. If you receive a call, you should seek the caller’s consent to tape record the conversation, insist that the communication be via email so that it can be memorialized or have the SurroGenesis representative contact your attorney directly. Further, I would encourage you to document every call you receive, no matter how immaterial it may seem, as it may be of assistance in any criminal prosecution and/or civil litigation.
