I have notice alot of concern about DEBT. When a debt collector contacts you, he must be able to verify the debt to you in writing.

No one can go to jail anymore for debt, Debtors prison does not exist.

Debt Collector's are scum, they will use any tacit they can to scare you, even treats, don't listen to them.

Below is a sample of Verfication of Debt, this can be use to verify the debt without arguing with them, make to prove the debt is valid. This is not legal advice, just a way to make them prove their claim. Please review it and ask other their opinion.
