Complaint
Glenn Canal
Country: United States
I received this email:
“Docket Number: -2:19-AP-938273-FC
Balance Amount: $1385.27
Legal Charges-Section 19(A), Clause 21(US).
Case Format- Fair Debt Collection Act 811 (FC/SC)
Subject: Notice of Legal Proceedings.
Settlement Amount: $950.27
URGENT DEMAND
Dear
You will note that the sum of $1385.27 is due by you. This amount is now outstanding for more than 90 days.
We would like to draw it to your attention that in the event of non-payment by you we will commence our legal Debt Collection procedure in respect of your case and we will pursue the amount due by you together with legal costs until settled in full.
It is strongly in your interests to avoid the additional expense and embarrassment of a court appearance. We strongly advise you to take this opportunity to reach an amicable solution.
Through Small Claims Court I have the right to request a payment hearing to find out information about your financial situation. I also have the right to apply to garnish money from your wages and bank accounts, hire a court bailiff to seize and sell your belongings, or register a judgment against your Name.
I am hopeful that we can resolve this matter without going through Small Claims proceedings. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss payment options.
Please now pay the sum of $1385.27 due by you and return it to us by return of post.
We advise you to make your payment before 05/30/2021; otherwise, your details will be submitted to our external debt collectors, and from there legal procedures pertaining to our loan recovery will be taken against you. This move could affect your credit history seriously. Therefore, we ask you to make communication with us to make payments or arrange alternatives before the mentioned date.”
The email was also sent to “undisclosed-recipients”. I’m assuming this isn’t legit because the company name doesn’t show up on any google searches
