Camco or Capital Acquisitions and Management Company Trying to collect on a 16yr old debt that was part of a bankruptcy. ripoff Rockford Illinois

Erika,

You may want to contact either the Attorney or the bankruptcy court where your papers are filed. Any time a Bankruptcy takes place, creditors are notified, and allowed to respond as to whether they should or should not be included in the action. If the original creditor failed to follow up on the contact, it is their tough luck.

Probably what has happened, in reading all these complaints, is that CAMCO has gotten outdated account information included amongst good collectable papers, has the wherewithal to pull credit reports, and viola, gathered your old account info from there. Not every creditor updates their info with the bureaus to show that their entry has "Been Included In Bankruptcy", and therefore they are making an attempt to collect on an account that may or may not have been contracted to them!!

Also, I hope others are checking with all complaints on this subject, do not start a Class action suit. This will involve finding others that have been ripped off, and whatever settlement is awarded by the court will have to be shared by all the parties incolved in said suit. I am not sure, but would expect the legal fees for the attorney to be paid thru the settlement in this type of case, you will receive more monies for your damages if you file separately.
