If This Don't Beat All-JDB & IL Atty General

[ConfusedToo]

In January I got a letter from Merchants Credit Guide Co. saying I owed money to them and they listed an OC I've never heard of and never owned. I DV them, also stating that a complaint will be filed with the IL Atty General.

I get a letter from IL Atty General advising me that copies of the complaint is being sent to the scum above and that the next time the scum contacts me, I should make a reasonable settlement with them. I clearly indicated it was not mine and that I considered it fraudulent. Seems to me I've read somewhere that these people in Merchants Credit Guide also have political ties........ I am planning a follow-up letter to these less than helpful AG people!

30 days has passed, no answer to DV. About one week after I DV'd, I get a letter from Resurgent, listing the same account number with a slightly lesser figure ($3 less!). And they list the OC as NCO. I send off a DV to them, again stating that a complaint will be going to their state's Atty General.

Looks like the original JDB got rid of this like a hot potato and dumped it on another JDB. Can't wait to see what, if anything, they send me next!

Is NCO tied with Merchants Credit Guide?

go to budhibbs.com. You can get the skinny on NCO, esurgent, and all your other new pals.

Just remember, though, while the AG has some moral pursuasion, they do not act as an arbiter or advocate for you. If you can show any of these guys did anything other than dun you, they might be legimitately interested,

Yep! BudHibbs has a LOT on NCO---they seem to be less than credible. I see they made an inquiry on DH's CR, so I'm ready to butt heads w/ them soon.

Thanks, I'll check out budhibbs.com. I realize the AG can't do much else than collect complaints, I mainly want these creeps to understand that their claim is fraudulent.
