I settled a collection debt in 2004 with Allied Interstate. Upon clearance of the funds for this debt recovery, Allied Interstate claims they sold it to another collection agency called Sherman Acquisition. I questioned this, so Allied Interstate issued me a letter of debt settlement. Next, I get calls from Sherman Acquisition to collect on this debt. So, I faxed this letter of debt settlement to Sherman as proof, and they call me a liar instead. So, they sold the account again, to Asset Acceptance, and they also called me a liar, and threaten to sue me. Now, over six years later, Asset Acceptance is pursuing a lawsuit against me grieving thousands of dollars over an account number that is archived according by the settlement letter, and concurrent by the original lender. Is it safe to say if you paid off a debt collection account with their numbers that you really paid it off? They're archiving their own numbers, and bringing lawsuits upon people before the statue of limitation runs out.
