Got mine and says I owe over $600. Spent all morning dealing with this. Since all my personal info somehow ended up on this account, I had to file credit alerts with all 3 agencies and buy a credit monitoring program. Tried unsuccessfully dealing with Verizon since the account originated with them. Of course, they have absolutely no records of the account nor is there anyway for them to get that information. Yeah, right!
Is it legal for a company to sell personal information, not keep any kind of record, and then claim they can do nothing about it? I could have sworn there are now laws in place to help consumers when something like this happens. Even threatened them with the Attorney General and nothing.
In any case, what if I just ignored this? I have tried 4 different phone numbers for Afni, and well, we all know the outcome of that. Funny, for a collection agency they don't answer the phone a whole lot.
In any case, if there is a class action suit, I would be willing to participate. This has cost me time, money, and quite a bit of grief with the wife freaking out! I am glad I found this site before I did something foolish and tried to deal with these people.
