Scam Description
The caller and later organization claimed my wife owed a hospital debt from over 19 years ago purchased by Schaeffer Acquisition. Claim included that a letter had been sent 3 months prior but they had no proof of that. Alleged that unless 50% or more was paid a civil suit would be filed in our county and a lien placed on our home. A search of the bonfides of the company show a registered representative in Huntsville, AL but was deceased. Also claimed the statute of limitations was frozen as we moved out of the state.
