Afni
Fraudulently attempting to take money

I received a "Collection Notice" from Afni, Inc. They claimed I owed the sum of $202.21 for a Bell Atlantic New York phone bill from 2000. I have resided in California since 1997.

I called to dispute Afn's claim and while the woman on the phone was initially cordial she became terse and rude upon discovering that I had no intention of paying a bill that over the course of the conversation became a Verizon bill.

I have never had an account with Verizon and even if the bill were mine, it is outside New York State's 6 year statute of limitations for Afni to collect any such debt.

That being said I do not and have not ever owed Verizon any sum of money. Is there an attorney filing a class action? If so who?

This is a clearly a grift with wire and mail fraud and Afni and it's employee's should pay the price, not those of us they consider marks.
