We have not used PacBell for at least 13 years (though we had an AT&T account since then), and we have never been informed by PacBell of any debt such as the one "reported", therefore I assume (and see no reason to believe otherwise) that this is a scam "debt" that these people are trying to collect.
We have always been easy to locate, and our address has always been open to the public. If we "owed" the $69.15 (and $73.79 interest) they claim, we would have heard from PacBell sometime within the last 13 years, surely.
Further, if we did owe such a debt (and I am very sure we did not), I believe it would have expired after 7-10 years without any effort at collection.
They claim the "debt" is on our credit report. I have seen our credit report in years past, once as recently as about two years ago; and it was not on there.
Shouldn't these people be reported to the DA's office?
