About six weeks ago I began receiving calls from CAMCO claiming that they were attempting to collect a debt on behalf of a lender whom I knew nothing about. The debt was supposedly incurred in 1983.
Ms. Tasha (?) Bell told me I could make a settlement payment of $683.00. I tried to explain that I didn't know anything about this debt and refused to make any arrangements without documentation and further information.
Mr. Andrew Cash then got on the line and told me to pay $683.00 now or they would come after me for the full $2400.00. If I didn't pay up, he had "ways of getting to the credit bureaus and would ruin [my] credit."
I, again, refused to discuss the matter further unless he provided me with documentation about this alleged debt and asked for his mailing address. He refused to provide that information.
Since then I have received numerous phone calls from Ms. Bell. When I answer the phone she simply begins demanding to know when I'm going to pay my debt. She does not identify herself, she just begins screaming.
Each time I simply keep repeating my request for a mailing address (obviously to send them a Cease and Desist Order) and each time my request for information is denied.
DO NOT agree to payments to these people. It is clear from their actions and their refusal to provide information that they are not a legitimate collection service.
