RJM Aquisitons ,MKM , Plaza Associates Collection notice New York New York
I received a collection notice letter in the mail stating I owed $156 to MKM Acquisitions. This was due on an account that was closed over 10 years ago. The account that was closed had a zero balance on it.
After calling the credit card card company and checking all my credit reports, no accounts showed delinquent. I called up MKM and they informed this account was acquired in 1999 and it has taken this long to get in touch with me.
They said they would put a note down on the account that it had zero balance when it was closed. You would think they would know that when they acquired it.
I think that I had an overseas address attached to it (I was in the military at the time) so that they could use that excuse it took 10 years to track me down and get some money from me. Please be aware.
I am sure this is not over. If anyone else has been involved with this company please respond to this post and let me know. Thanks.

you have to send certified mail return receipt requested
Dispute it as past Statute of Limitations and non-existent.
They cannot collect it legally but it won't stop them from trying.
go to www.budhibbs.com NOW and learn how to deal with them - read dealing with Collectors 101 - you have to scroll down to it
Budhibbs has them listed as an agency to avoid because they violate FDCPA law regularly.
