pacific audit solutions Is this a scam portland Oregon

My wife's daughter who is 30 started a new job in downtown Portland.  There was no parking for the business.  Parking fees would eat up her wages.  On a Sunday, she thought the sign said free parking.  It was my car, but she was the driver. I received a notice from Pacific that I owed $44.00 for a ticket.  I am a serior, never have driven to downtown.  Dauther tried to reach them by phone, no luck.  I sent a check, didn't want it on my record.  I received another notice. Called their 800 number.  Yes, they did not have the check and to avoid penalty put it on a credit card.  Oh by the way, there is another ticket for $83.00.  I talked with the daughter again, it is her responsibility. Sent a not and another check.  Now it is January and I received a collection notice.  How can this company loose two checks?  Why not contact me before sending it to collection?After reading the ohter complaints, I believe  this is bordering on fraud.  No recourse for an honest citizen?
