My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: Arizona
Hello,
I have recently been contacted by a debt collector for a debt that I thought was settled 11 years ago. The debt or collection has never posted on my Credit report, yet they are sending me letters with outrageous interest amounts ($3000 debt = $13,400 owed?)
I wrote them a letter & clearly disputed the debt, I am just nervous given I had also just been notified of a default judgment against me, for another 11 year old debt. Ex Wife, shared my soc# with new beau & then commenced in opening cc's & renting a house in my name. I actually have a misspelled version of my name as a known alias on my credit report, as he forgot how to spell my last name @ the doctors office, i digress.
My point is, it seems all of a sudden these old items are surfacing & I thought there was a statute on written agreement debt of 5-6 years.
