CBCS sent me a letter offering me a settlement of 50% on a debt that I had never heard of. It said the current balance is $656.29 and that they had been authorized to give me a settlement offer of $328.15. It says the original creditor is AT&T Broadband. I have never had an account with this company and have never been contacted by them. I called the number that is listed about ten times and each time it rang twice and then went to a busy signal.
I then googled the address that was on the letter and the phone number that was listed. The results shoed several complaints on usacomplaints.com and other similar sites that were similar to my complaint.in the other complaints, though, the victims were able to contact the company by telephone or the company contacted them.in my case, the company contacted me via the US Mail and I was not able to reach the company by telephone.
An interesting note - When ever I open an account or engage in any business transaction, I use my full first name and middle initial (Michael J). The letter was addressed to simply Mike and my last name.
