Afnicollections fraudulent billing and attempted identity theft Bloomington Illinois

Lorrie,

How, exactly is this "attempted identity theft"? Please explain.

Although I do agree that AFNI are a bunch of lowlife punks, crackheads and felons, you need to educate yourself on the REAL situation.

AFNI are third party debt collectors AND junk debt buyers. They buy this type of very old usually uncollectable "debts" for far less than a penny on the dollar. The main problem with this, is that the "accounts" they purchase have little or no data on the actual person who owed the money. here is where the problem starts.

Now, everyone with the same or similar name to yours, or anyone who has had that number listed in the past, gets the collection latters and/or calls. They are fishing!

This is why you NEVER call or speak to ANY debt collector on the phone. NEVER!! NEVER!! NEVER!!
It will never do anything positive for you, and will usually make things worse. Keep in mind these are DEBT COLLECTORS, NOT customer service.

They have only one goal. To separate you from your money. That's all they care about.

NEVER file a fraud alert or police report on collections activity. Thisa is just a con for you to give up more personal information, as that report becomes public record!

I don't see how they had your birthdate and SS# unless you gave it to them, or the bill was actually yours.

STAY OFF THE PHONE!!
