I recently started being contacted by this slime rip off company about some fabricated debt that they say I incurred to Bank Of America or one of their many aquisitions in the 1982. I must have amnesia because as I have told each of the rude scummy individuals I have talked to, I was not aware of any such debtor creditor relationship but then neither is Bank of America.
I checked with B of A where I have an extensive banking relationship and accused them of wrongly turning my name over to a collection agency for a debt I never incurred. After extensive record investigation on their part they agree that never at any time now or in the past have I incurred any debt to them or any of the companies they aquired. They did however tell me that are aware that CAMCO is a 5th rate business that purchases lists of debts and SS numbers for a few cents each and tries to extort money from the people on those lists. They also agreed that by the 5th generation these lists are riddled with inaccuracies and just plain totally false information.
I have been told several stories by various rude crude uneducated low life threatning people at CAMCO about this alleged debt. First, I paid some unknown collection agency for 5 years then quit paying? News to me! Then I didn't pay any collection agency at all but instead tried to pay the debt off to the original unknown creditor years later? Again news to me! Then the threats started about ruining my credit and also the ridiculous offer to send them $400 right now to make this alleged $7000.00 debt go away and make them go away. They did intimidate me into obtaining a copy of my blemish free credit report which I know is a good idea anyway.
Most ludicrous of all though was their statement that they could prove I owed the debt because they have a signed affidavit by an officer of their own company that I owe this debt and that affidavit WILL stand up in a court of law. After almost dying from laughter over that statement I terminated the conversation.
What really makes me furious though is that there are probably many people who are not as dead sure as I am that there is no debt to settle but may allow this scam company to extort money from them that they may not owe. I plan to file complaints everywhere I can and I suggest that others complain loudly to any AG, BBB, or anyone else who will listen.
