I opened my mail a few days ago to receive a letter from this company (Ron Adams) stating that I wrote a bad check in 1999 to Verizon Wireless and would now be faced with 'criminal and/or civil action' should I not pay immediately.

I automatically became suspicious of this company because the letter was not written on proper letter head neither does the bottom part have a easy detachment section. Not only that but I noticed that there was no account for the debtor-Verizon Wireless. Then not to mention I didn't think that Verizon Wireless was around in 1999. Where they?

The following day I followed up with this company under suspicion that it may fraudulent. The person on the line did inform me that I wrote a check on Oct 1999 for $125 to Verizon Wireless which bounced twice. Twice? Hmmm... I am not aware of any large companies which resubmit NSF checks a second time. However now I had to pay them $250 for all fees, blah... Blah. I asked him for a copy of the check which at that point he told me was in their legal department but he did supply me with a check number. After getting vague answers to all my questions, I asked again I may have a copy of the check I submitted which at that point I was told was no longer in their possession and was in archive. Of course by then I knew this was nonsense.in a matter of mins. The check went from their legal department to archive.

After hanging up I immediately got online and did a search for the company name to find out that I was not alone in this. They need to be stopped! They need to pay for causing panic to people the way they do. I could only imagine what my poor elderly mother would feel like if she were to open a letter from them. This is not right! If anyone needs me to sign a petition I will
