Complaint Review: JBC Legal Group

On March 29, 2004 I received a letter from JBC about a dishonored check that I supposedly wrote more then 7 years ago to Best Buy written on an account at a bank I have never done business with. The letter demanded $211.83 or they were going to file suit in 30 days. I did my own research and discovered that JBC is nothing more than a Bad Debt collector and uses scare tactics to get persons to pay up.

I never paid the money and a month later they claim I owe $711.83. JBC was trying to collect attorney's fees before a civil judgment which is clearly in violation of Wisconsin law.

It is now two months later and they still have not filed suit but I have submitted their threatening letters to the law office of Edelman and Combs. I would suggest that anyone else in this situation do the same but make sure to read visit this website first: http://www.edcombs.com/FSL5CS/Custom/TOCSpecial.asp
They are scam artists posing as a law firm so make sure you arm yourself with knowledge of the law.
