This company seems very suspicious. I received a letter a couple months ago saying I owed money for a hospital bill that I have no recollection of every receiving and also was suspicious because they had my married name for the date of service even though I was not married at the time, so it should have had my maiden name on it. Also, I know for a fact I was not at the hospital for the date of service they were claiming (two red flags). I sent them a certified letter stating they had to prove their claims that I owed them this money or I would file a complaint to the Illinois State Attorney's office and Federal Trade Commission. I have not heard anything from them. Recently, my husband received something from this company also. Again, the dates of service are suspicious, as we do not remember ever going to that facility they are claiming on those dates. All seems very fishy to me. Again, sent a certified letter to prove their claims. We will wait and see. I highly doubt we will hear back. Anyone that receives a collection letter from these people has every right to send a letter (I recommend certified) stating they need to prove their claims that money is owed and if not, they will be reported to the above places I mentioned. If they do not comply with this, they cannot collect the money. A company cannot just send a letter claiming you owe money with no proof. This company is highly suspicious for fraud! I will wait a few more weeks to hear something and then I'm reporting them!
