      I have contacted Southwest Collections multiple times, and have not been able to reach them. I have been a victim of identify theft and the paper work they have on file does not even have my real social security number, but is reporting to my credit report. I have never done any business with this company.

      The attached consumers file has been reviewed and audited.

      We have determined this balance to be JUSTLY OWING, with all info on credit application and copy 

      of CA drivers license all to be a 100% match.   We have also never received any phone calls from this consumer.

       

      The balance REMAINS OWING !   Should this consumer wish to pay this obligation she may reach me @ ************
