AMY, Be sure to send a debt validation request as required to protect your rights under the FDCPA and send it by certified mail, return reciept requested. These are debt buyers, and LVNV is also a debt buyer who obviously sold it to these people. They are extreme lowlife and CAN NOT be trusted. DO NOT speak on the phone anymore with them, demand all communications be in writing. Also...FYI...the Statute of Limitations in Maine on any consumer debt is 6 years. Therefore, even the collection attempt is a violation of the FDCPA and possibly the FCRA if it ends up on your credit report. You should report this to the FTC online at www ftc gov. You can find more interesting reading just by doing an internet search for LVNV or by going to www budhibbs com, and other places all over the internet. They are Major Offenders of consumer rights. Good Luck!
