Northern Leasing ripoff New York

I opened a store in Hugo, Ok last year, then companies started contacting me about credit card's, my daughter and I thought this might help our business as it was not doing very well. So we let this smooth talker in Colorado talk us into giving this a try. He assured us no money would be taken out of our little checking account until a month had passed. We were very stupid and did not realize he would sell the contract to Northern Leasing and that besides his company taking money there would also be money taken out from Northern Leasing.

Northern Leasing tried to get money almost immediatly, we turned it down and the bank returned our money, then I contacted the man in Colorado and he was so suprised acting because money had already started comming out of our account. We never even used the machine, I contacted my attorney and he told me it was a big rip off and to box it all up and return the machine. This did not stop them from still trying to get money from my checking account, in order to stop this the account had to be closed out!! Now they are threatening to sue me for lot's of money, I do not have it to pay anything in order to try to stall a lawsuit.

I am on limited social security and unable to work due to health reasons. Nothing I own is paid for and family help's me with lot's of my bill's, but no one is able to help with this. Do you think they can and will sue me?? My attorney told me that most do not that they just harrass you for a long time. But I am still worried.
