Today, January 12 I received a phone call from JBC and Associates stating that I owed for a bounced check in the amount of $89.65 with an account with Bank of America back in 1993.
I have never had an account with Bank of America as I stated to him and he told me, "Well, it wasnt called that back then". He stated that I had until the 23rd of January to pay or there would be a warrant out for my arrest.
This really had me scared and upset because he had all this information on me and I dont understand how he got it. I didnt even have an account with anyone in 1993 as I was reminded by my husband.
It's a good thing my husband was very suspicious of this, how Mr. Thomas Mitchell had no information for the questions that I had about the check. He told me that I could wetern union the money, I asked him how, he put me on hold. I asked him who would I mail the payment to, and he stated that I could mail it to the address on the letter head of the letter that was sent to me two days ago.
Mr. Mitchell couldn't answer questions about who the check was written to or anything, all he had was an amount. I tried calling back and I couldn't get through on the direct number he gave which is different from the main number. I left a message requesting a copy of the "bounced check".
So now, all I can do is wait. How are people allowed to get away with this kind of thing, how do they get your private information like that? Something has to change!!!
