Okay here is the deal. Merchants Credit Guide Company sent me a letter claiming that I owed thousands of dollars. The named to which the letter was addressed has not been my legal name for 10 years; the credit cards that were in that name were cancelled in 1992.
If you are in Florida, try this: Send a letter to the
Attorney General, State of Florida, Charlie Crist, along with a copy of the letter from Merchants Credit Guide Company.
I also sent a certified, return receipt letter to Mr. Hughes, at Merchants Credit Guide, stating that I was unaware of any debt owed by me, with a copy of my letter to the attorney general. Requesting the name and acccount numbers of creditors and the dates that this debt was encurred.
I have received a response from the Attorney Generals office recommending that I contact the FTC, which I intend on doing.
