Narrative:

While on a layover in den; I received a call from the A320 lca coordinator. He told me that he had received possibly a note and/or phone call from mr XXX. He informed me that mr XXX was angry because I was fatigued after flying A320 trip and I was an A320 lca. The lca coordinator relayed to me that mr XXX also told him that 'he' chose the assignments and that 'he' selected who will be an lca. With respect to this incident: 1) I was fatigued after going to sleep at XA00. 2)I was following far's with respect to being fit and alert for duty. I complied with fom regarding alertness management; flight operations mission statement; rule of three: captain's authority/authorized. That being said; the trips in question were not lca assignments. I was not acting as an lca in any capacity. I find mr XXX's call to the lca coordinator and his statements harassment and an attempt into intimidation. My being fatigued had nothing to do with training but rather a fatiguing trip.
