On March 31st I received an auto debit in my business account from SKS Associates. Not knowing who this is I called their number 866-286-8841.  They wanted my lease account number???? I said I don't have a lease with you or anyone. They then claimed that I did, a 48 month lease with Northern Leasing that started in 2000 and ended in 2004. I said you can not just take money out of my bank account ...who are you and how did you get my bank account number. They then told me that I had leased some credit card equipment from them and owed them for personal property taxes. I told them that lease was paid in full a long time ago. They then asked for my phone number (which hadn't changed in the last 15 years) and couldn't find me in their system. They then asked for my social security number!!! (I did not give it to them) and I told them NO. They then asked for my name and after substantial searching was able to find an account. She said your account was paid in full in 2004 and your lease was terminated on some credit card equipment. I said yes so then why now 7 YEARS LATER you are saying that I owe you money and who gave you the authorization to take money from my account. She stated that an audit was done and that I owe for personal property taxes. I said no because I paid the personal property taxes when I was paying the lease and the lease is paid in full and I owe you nothing. She then said that I signed a lease stating that I would pay the personal property taxes and that I owed $63.36 from 2004 to 2010! I said I sold the equipment way back in 2004 and don't own it anymore. However, she claimed I still owed her money!  Since she wasn't going to budge on her ridiculous position, I went to my credit union and signed a statement that this company had no authorization to take funds from my account. Their authority to take funds from my account was revoked over 7 years ago. 
This is a scam!!!!  File an action with your state's Attorney General and let's get these crooks behind bars!!!!
