      I missed a call from an unknown number and called back, the lady that answered asked me if my name was ******************************* and I stated yes, I asked what this was in regards, she stated she was calling regarding an account with check and go file number ******, I told her I have absolutely no clue what she is talking about, she mentioned a bank account with ***** fargo that apparently was tied to that check and go account, There was Identity theft and fraudulent ***** fargo accounts that were open more than 10 years ago that resulted in a class action *** from millions of people. So, I have absolutely no idea what this is for, before I can explain to the lady about anything or to even mention that fraudulent ***** fargo accounts were open more than ***************************************************************************************** even explain to her that I have no clue regarding this account to mail me paperwork proving it, she cut me off and said "okay is not yours im going to send this account to court and *** you. First of is not my account so this account needs to be deleted from any file, secondly. There was no proof of account provided and lastly any fraudulent account over 10 years was reported. This account needs to be deleted and it is not legal for a collection agency to call threating to *** you with no proof. for accounts over 10 years.

      I supposedly have a debt from 2020 from a certain furniture company. Didn't own a house back then so apparantly the fake version of me they have somehow decided it was a good idea to buy a sofa or whatever it is that people by from R.3.N.T.A.C.3.N.T.E.R lmao and then sent me a letter to intimidate me more. Idiots think that's enough to scare me. The debt doesn't even show up on my credit report! If you get a call from anyone associated with this 'company' it is a scam. Their physical address (as listed on their website, **************************************) is not real.
