Afni, Inc
Fraudulent debt collection attempt

Education & Science

Today my huband and I received an unsetteling collection notice from Afni, Inc. They claim we owe over $80 on a Verizon account which my husband had over 7 years ago. I contacted Verizon, they cannot verify this alleged debt; in fact the woman at Verizon with whom I spoke said that at this point the debt is far too old for Afni to be attempting collection.

I checked the Statute of Limitation laws for debt collection in my state and discovered that debts of this type which are more than 4 years old cannot be legally collected. Yet Afni is attempting, not only to collect a fraudulent debt, they are doing so 3 years past the limitation.

I emailed a complaint to Afni, Inc via their feedback form. I filed complaints with both the FTC and my state's Attorney General. I am hoping this will resolve the situation; however, if anyone has any advice please let me know.
