Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP False claim for unpaid toll in a state I never drove in for a car I don't own Denver Colorado
Recieved notification of $102.50 outstanding bill for an unpaid toll of $2.50 in California. The license plate was registered in California. I live in WA. I have never lived in California. I have never driven in California. This 'fee' of $100 will increase by $50 on a set schedule if I delay. I called the number, the spokes person was unable to provide any details to confirm whether I was the correct person and stated that I have to prove that I am not the person in question.
The reason I am reporting this is because according to their spokesperson all the law office needs to pursue a deliquent account are the following: two names that match and the last four digits of a social security number. I have name so common that in my home town there were 18 pages (white pages) of people with the same first and last name. It's ridiculous that this practice is sanctioned and occurs regularly enough that even CNN has posted a story about it. I figure the more people who report this type of shyte the sooner it will reach a critical mass and maybe...just maybe, something will happen.
