stllrng Posted March 8, 2005 Report Share Posted March 8, 2005 First time doing this. Need help. 8 year old debt, way passed SOL of California No listing on CR, but still getting letters from CA. Just sent CA a Demand for Validation. CA immediately sent me a computer generated statement with very general information. Including last transaction date of 8 years ago.Is it better strategy to just get this CA to stop collection activity, or should I count violations and sue them?I want this issue ended.What is next step for validation when CA only gives one line of general information (acct #, OC, principal amt, interest amt, balance, last transaction date, contact info).

divemedic Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 It doesn't matter. Try this:Dear Ice a hole. You have wiolated my fargin civil rights. If you EVER contact me again, I will rip your fargin walls off!(sorry, I love Johnny Dangerously- one of the funniest movies ever made)Just put in there that the account is time barred, don't contact me again. Also, this account is beyond the allowed reporting period as specified by the FCRA, and reporting to the CRA's will result in legal action, up to and including filing of suits for damages, blah, blah, blah.
