Re: Bounced Check

This is how they operate. They regularly try to collect on checks that are past the statute of limitations. Send them a cease and desist letter by fax, if available, and certified mail. If they contact you again after that, except for certain circumstances, then they have violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and you can sue them for damages. If you need additional info, feel free to call me at 973-659-9045.
