Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Virginia
Identity theft
I received a invoice from iron planet auction they were billing me 2,500 for a default fee because someone miss use my information and place a bid on a machine. I try talking with this company explaining that I didn�t have anything to do with this bid.
But they say they couldn�t do anything because I was to late this happen three weeks ago and they say that they couldn�t research were the bid came from.
And my account was already in default and a collection agency already had my information and they were going to contact me. The only information that they have is my name , address and name of the bank were I have my accounts .
What steps should I take with this matter?
Can they send me to collection with just that information?
I live in Virginia.
Thank you
