I sent a letter to this company by certified mail today requesting validation of this debt, and if they contact me again without validating it, there would be a violation of the FDCPA. I'll let you know if I hear from them!

Write them a letter and tell them 1) you do not owe this debt and 2) even if you did, it's barred by the statute of limitations and 3) so leave me alone. You win. That's not legal advice, just the regular kind.

Verizon has only existed since 2000, so it is not possible for you to have a Verizon bill from any period before that. Even if it did, there would be a little thing called "statute of limitations" getting in the way. Tell them to kiss your behind and send them a "cease and desist" letter, and ask them to validate (something with your signature, etc.) Also report Jack Boyajian to the State Bar of California...which seems to be the only place he is actually licensed to practice law.

I received a letter from this company stating I owed $323.57 for an unpaid balance from Verizon. This bill is apparently from 1994. The letter was addressed to me using my maiden name (I was using my married name in 1994. Also, I have never had an account with Verizon. I called Verizon and confirmed that I had no outstanding balances for a land line or wireless service. What can I do?
