What is the name of your state? PA
Hi, I recently received a letter about a store credit card that I had back in the early 90's, now the company wants to collect $250. Also, I received a call for my mom from a lawyer's office saying she stopped paying on a Mastercard, also in the 90's. I was told she owes $2933.46 & by tomorrow it will be $2400. They told me a lien would be placed on her home if they don't receive this money, the IRS would be notified & mentioned some other things.
1. I thought there was a 7 yr statute of limitations on things like this. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
2. My mom makes minimum wage & can't afford to pay this card off.
What can we do? Thanks in advance.
