E-mail me at [email protected] need to know exactly what you recd in the mail.
The agencies often write on their own notices they will sue (and they have that right) but don't. Also, there is a statute of limitations ("SOL") many credit collection agencies bypass, hoping uninformed people will go ahead, get scared and pay. Then, the people are screwed because even an extra $20 they paid 7 years and a month later to calm the agency re-opens the SOL.
