CAMCO "for Citibank And Sears MasterCard" ripoff CAMCO called. Said I owed $4000, plus interest from accounts in 1985. Schaumburg Illinois

CAMCO left a message on my answering machine that said they were calling in reference to an investigation of my current accounts. They had all my personal information, including my Social Security number and my mother's name and address. They said that they had sent me SEVERAL notices in regard to a Citibank account and a Sears MasterCard account which showed that I owed $4000 and that the interest on these accounts was increasing daily.

I have received nothing in the mail. They would not give me the company name or address, just the FAX number. They said the last payment I had made was in 1985. I had a MasterCard account number which was stolen in 1985 (from a receipt). Several accounts were opened and used by the thief. The FBI finally made an arrest and my name was cleared, but it took 4 years and several lawyers to clear my credit.

CAMCO got their information from this period of fradulent accounts. The thief operated in Las Vegas and New York. I saw the reports on the internet that suggest there is a big CAMCO push in California right now. I called the Better Business Bureau in San Diego and they had NO INFORMATION on this company. How do we get rid of these scammers?
