Fraudulent Phone Bill

2

I received a collections letter from Afni.Inc stating that they were "making another attempt to contact me regarding my overdue Verizon account. They were offering to settle for half what they said we owed ($577.75). The spelling of the first name of the person addressed on the letter was similar to mine, but not the same as my first name. The last name was the same as mine. I have never had a Verizon account. When I checked with Afni by phone the manager said "they would remove my address from the computer so I should disregard the letter." When I asked why it was sent to me in the first place, the manager became verbally insulting and said "then I should ask you why you were opening other people's mail." I called Verizon and spoke with their Fraud Investigation Department, and was told that they have no record of there ever being a Verizon account in my name or under my SS#. The Fraud investigator said Afni.Inc. was probably doing "skip tracing" with just the name on the account to see if they could find anyone with that name anywhere to send the collection letter to. I suggest anyone who gets anything from Afni.Inc. check on it carefully before paying them anything!
