Jerry Smith, Attorney
Collection agent for Platinum B Services Fake letter attempting to scare me with criminal records

Fake attorney claiming that I owe some company $500; Platinum B Services. The information lists my name and address from about 6 years ago but the date of the alleged claim is 5 years ago when I lived 1500 miles away. I did have some identity theft issues 6 years ago (one of the reasons I moved). They threatened to throw me in jail, report my SSN to the "courthouse" and I would never be able to work again, etc. Ridiculous that these companies hire this dishonorable people making all these threats.

I know it's against the law for a lawyer to threaten criminal action against someone for a collection matter, but these folks went beyond just threatening criminal action. Their letterhead is designed to look like they are writing from the US attorney's office or Department of Justice. The whole thing is smelly and wreaks of a scam, maybe.
