Re: unathorized withdrawl.

Change your bank account number, and never in the future give your bank account or debit card number to a collection agency. Deal with collection agencies only in writing, and do not pay or promise to pay debts that are no longer legally collectible in your state. For questions regarding Utah law, ask an attorney who is licensed to practice law in Utah.
