What is the name of your state? California
Today I received a letter from Merchants Credit Guide Co stating that I owe a debt from 1994 or so and that i had 3 options to pay it. I called them on the phone and asked a CSR to explain what was going on with this claim they were making. They told me that I owed them money, about 6500.00 and if I paid it right away, i would save 50%. This is absurd! Bottom line is that this debt is over 7 or 8 years old and I have never heard of the company they claim to be representing before. Has anyone experienced this before? And if so, what can be done. They claim they have my SSN# as proof of the debt?
