First it was LVNV Funding--requested validation of debt by USPS Certified mail (and also cease telephone communication). LVNV quietly shifted it to Associated Recovery and they started calling--I sent them same CCRR letter and they bounced it to their other 'company' Resurgent Capital. Only validation was a note stating when account was purchased--not full disclosure. I made 1/2 of payments to one debt collector back in 2007 (before they sold it to this firm). Debt originated back in 2003. As others have said--beware. :twisted: I have been doing the ‘shell’ game with all their hidden companies for the past couple of months.

The second you sign their agreement the debt is rolled into a brand new account. You give up your right to verification and they can sue you for a debt they could not before. I have received a few of these on Zombie debts from an identity theft that occurred over 10 years ago. In each case they looked like regular credit card offers and an unsuspecting consumer could be tricked into thinking they are being offered a valid credit offer.
