The letter further goes on to say that I am to send $495.34 to resolve the matter. - I was and still am totally SHOCKED at this.- I don't understand. Where did these people get my name and address from?.-Then they also want me to give them the numbers of my Social Security and Credit Card.-This is absolutely outrageous!
I am going to be calling them again on Monday to find out what's going on.- What is going to my credit rating.- This is not good enough at all- What kind of a scam is this?,I never heard of these people.

CONSUMERS ARE WARNED NOT TO FALL FOR THEIR SCAM OF ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT ON TIME BARRED DEBTS FROM VERIZON/GTE ACCOUNTS THAT DATE BACK TO THE EARLY 90'S. AFNI CANNOT SUE ON THESE DEBTS, THEY CANNOT REPORT THEM ON YOUR CREDIT FILES. AFNI IS HURTING FOR COLLECTION ACCOUNTS & PAID PENNIES FOR THIS WORTHLESS PORTFOLIO, HOPING TO CASH IN. THIS IS A SCAM -- YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAY ON THESE OLD, OUTDATED ACCOUNTS!
FAX A LETTER TO AFNI AT (309)-828-0931
STATING: I REFUSE TO PAY THIS DEBT!
Get a receipt it was received
CAUTION: I recommend you NEVER disclose your bank account or credit card information to a debt collector, as you risk them emptying your account, or maxing out your credit card. If you feel they are reporting on your credit bureau files in error or need assistance in dealing with them, email the details w/your location. Assistance and referral to a consumer legal specialist may be available. Email for Assistance
