Camco rip off Rockford Illinois
Approx. 1 month ago (10-2003) i was contacted by camco, by telephone stating that i owed $5000 on an account from gm household from 1994. I told them that i didnt know what they were talking about, and to please forward me a statement and my signature showing me what these charges were. "Chris" read me back the last 4 digits of my social security number and said since the account was opened in my s.s.# that i was responsible for these charges. He has since contacted me at work even though i had repeatedly told him not to. He then contacted a neighbor and has continuiosly harrassed me day and night.
I was then contacted by his supervisor "Erica" who told me she would settle this account for $586 if i called her by 4 o'clock Monday. I did call her but spoke to someone who continiously sneezed in my ear!! I told him to forward documents to me. I have not received them yet. I found your website and am so thankful because i thought i was going nuts! I dont recall ever having a gm household credit card and told them i think i would remember charging $5000! I am very interested in bringing this scam to the public's attention and am contacting a local television station. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks again!

Bonnie,you have the right idea. We contacted our local troubleshooter her in Cinn. Oh. He came out and did an on camera interview with us and it aired about a month ago. We have since received confir, ation from Rockford, Illinois that Camco has closed and ceased all collection activity and removed all our our information from their datsbase. Abd that we will no longer receive any communication from them in any shape or form anymore.

just an update! Today I went to my state representatives office, Joe Petrarca from Pa.and talked to him and his secretary. I showed them e-mails from this web site along with my problem with camco and the letter I received from Camco stating that I had until the 10th of December to make a payment to them! They are helping me to file a complaint with the attorney general's office. He said we will start there and to bring to them any additional information I receive from this company. I feel better taking some type of action. I know the phone calls will start again December 11th and I will be documenting everything to turn over to Mr. Petrarca
