I noticed on March 17 that my checking account was deducted $31.20 from a company I never heard of. I Googled SKS which was on my bank statement to get their phone number. I called them and they stated that the deduction was done to cover amount owed to Lease Finance Group LLC since they recently aquired all their accounts. My acount with LFG LLC was closed in 2006 and I was never notified that I owed them any money since the closing. SKS now claims deferently - but I never received a bill nor a letter from LFG or SKS. Then I asked about the letter they said they sent to me, which they faxed to me upon my request. I found out it went to my old address. I went to the Bank on March 19 to fill an official compalint and they advised me today I had 2 days to submit the filing and I did it on the 3rd day. The is a federal law dealing with ACL allows only 2 days grace.
I have now filled a Complaint with the NY State Attorney Generals office. I know its not a lot of money but it is the principal.
I hope there are enough compalints to take these fraudulent people down.
