The billing statement they mailed you is not enough evidence, to prove anything. Did they assign you a Member ID? Can they provide dates when the orders were placed? What method of payment did you select? Do they have a signed contractual aggreement to show? This may be a case of mistaken identity, or someone may very well have stolen information from you. I don't want to make you paranoid, but at this point, anything is possible. Years ago, they hassled me for not fulfilling my commitment, when they quit mailing me catalogs to order from. I ended up arguing with a collection agency, and then got them out of my hair. You want to make sure this will not go on your credit report for obvious reasons. It's a good thing you plan on contacting the Attorney General of your State. In addition, make them tell you how they got your address. I don't think they used "standard mail forwarding". They do not have the right to just bill everyone indescrimately, they have to provide legistic evidence. You should also write them a letter containing the same information discussed by phone. In the letter, make it clear you never renewed any membership. Send it, and make them sign for it, just for the record. Hope it works out.
