Palisades Collections is a JUNK DEBT buyer. They purchase mostly very old time barred debts. They have a very long and terrible reputation for pulling this kind of thing with credit bureau reporting. Unfortunately, these unethical actions are not criminal, but should be. You will need to file a complaint at FTC.gov and send writtem disputes to all 3 credit bureaus and to Palisades. Send all correspondence by certified mail, return reciept requested, and put the certified# itself on the letter, and keep a copy for yourself. You can sue under the provisions of the FDCPA for up to $1000 per violation plus costs. There are attorneys available at the NACA that will do this reasonable or even free. Also go to BudHibbs.com to read dozens of complaints on these dirtbags.
