I received a statement from this "law office" stating that I had a debt that they were collecting for. Previously, I received a call from another collection agency stating that I owed the company US BANK. They rattled off the last four digits of my social security number and asked me to verify. I did not verify any of my information. I went to US BANK and mentioned this to them. They took my information and tried to pull it up in their system. They had no record of me ever having an account with them. The manager at US BANK told me that if I had had an account with them at any time, my information would be in their system. I was advised that this was an attempt to steal my identity or fraudulently take money from me. I have never confirmed any of my information to the collection agency or law firm and have not responded to any of their plots to take money from me. I put a freeze on my credit report and reported fraudulent attempts so there is a warning to the creditors if someone tries to access my credit. Now, several months later, I received a notice from the Law Offices of Mitchell N. Kay, P.C. Giving me a settlement amount as well as a balance. Any advice would be appreciated. At this point, I'm just ignoring the whole thing.
