Link this to AskMe when it unfucks itself? Could some *one* link what I'm posting below to the AskMe when that server gets its fucking shit together? I can't email the asker because his/her profile contains no data too. Thanks.→[More:]

Merchants Credit Guide Co

I sent this very company a 'Request for Validation' letter via Certified Return Receipt Mail at the end of August. As I understand it, they have thirty days to get a reply back with the original details of the debt (to whom, for how much, when,) something they may not want to or be able to pull together if it's junk debt they bought fourth hand (or outright fraud.) I think this is different from the SoL letter I've seen mentioned already; maybe someone can come along to clarify that bit.

Knock on wood, I haven't heard back from them yet. Good luck, and consider a follow-up.
