      I was contacted by this company seven days ago. They refused to give me their name. Because they didn’t validate the alleged debt within the legal timeframe then they are to cease and desist all communications with me and they are not to direct 3rd parties to contact me My only income is permanent Social Security and there is nearly a $700,000 personal lien on my name hence communicating with me about it alleged it is moot.

       

      PCA Acquisition contact me seven days ago but they didn’t validate the alleged debt as required by law. Because of this PCA acquisitions and their affiliates or associates are not to contact me nor are they to direct others to contact me. My only income is permanent SSD and there’s nearly a $700,000 federal judgment on my name which can be seen in the county court records. Hence contacting me is moot. Thank you

      3 1/2 years after my mother-in-law passed, they send their condolences and ask for money… from an estate long finalized and past the court-decreed point of contesting. It seems so much of our country’s economy is based on scamming the middle class and vulnerable, even in times of grief. Shameful.
