I received a letter from this company stating I owed money for 10 different movies that were late on 7 separate occassions from the time period beginning Jan through Nov. This is an attempt to extort a small enough amount of money from me and others so that we will pay so as not to ruin our credit but don't legitimately owe. I will not pay. Nor should anyone else who does not owe this money.
I called the Federal Trade Commission to file a report and they were already aware of this "scam". The operator stated to send West Bay Acquisitions, LLC a letter that this is not my debt and not to contact me anymore and to also tell them I filed a complaint with the FTC. I employ everyone who does not owe this debt to this company to file a legitimate complaint with the FTC. It literally took 4 mins to file the complaint via telephone.
I also called the Rhode Island Attorney General's Office and spoke to someone who was also well aware of this situation, however, she was not as quick to offer any help other than to tell me to send them a cease and decist letter, mail it certified and deny the debt. Hopefully someone will pick up on this "scam" and do something about these people. Who knows how many other businesses they own and use to scam people out of hard earned money.
