Default got an interesting letter today (legal experts or hobbists have a look)

Got a letter from a "Alliance one ltd" saying i owe them almost $700 from a td canada trust account. Problem is i have never had any accounts with TD. The letter goes on to say this is a final notice before taking legal matters in which they will garnish my wages take possession of my truck and my house and freeze my bank accounts. I think the biggest red flag is at the bottom it says "due to the econimic conditions, no reasonable offer will be refused. What collection company or anyone else for that matter would say that? Anyone know of this company or gotten any similar letters. This company also does not have a website another red flag. I called them today and got a general mail box also a red flag

If they say send the money western union to habibe muhammaraustaven then its probably totally legitimate.
Buy seriously. What ever info you have received, head to your local td branch and pass it on. They have money and resources to take whoever it is down.

I had something similar happen to me last year. I got a call from mastercard card services division asking to verify my card and security number. The caller id Florida and a Florida number. When i called back I just got voice mail for card services. Figured it a little strange.so called up mbna mastercard and asked of they had a branch in Florida. The girl, a little puzzled, said.yes we do. I asked if they would.be calling me for any reason from Florida. She then asked if i got a call asking to confirm my card number. I said.yes and she asked if i actually gave it, which I didn't. Apparently, they had received many calls from proper.who actually did give their number. I gave her the phone number and she thanked me.for it, most people had deleted the number before they got ripped off.

If it sounds fishy it probably is. Call td, pass on the info and let them sort it out. There may be a sucker born every day, but you don't need to be one of them lol

You also owe me $19,342.67. To avoid litigation it is recommended to contact my local representative: me. Bring cash, and a hot chocolate with whipped cream and shaved chocolate and a touch of cinnamon.

I too am requesting funds on behalf of the Grand Chief of Security forces representing the Republic of Nigera in cooperation with the Royal British National Embassy. If you send $50 within the next 24 hours to the email address below your inheritance of $7mil will be immediately released to the bank of your choice.

I look forward to your immediate action in order to avoid sever legal action.

If they do take your truck and garnish your wages, I'll help you out. I'm set to receive approx $10million dollars from a wealthy nigerian widow. Only cost me $10,000 to help her get the money out, then I get my $10 million. Just waiting for it to be finalized, then No worries!

If it was me, I'd just shred it. You never had a TD account, so you never had any money in it, so how could you possibly owe anything. They're just trying to freak you into action with the talk about garnishing and taking your home and vehicles.

Just call the cops, I wouldn't even waste money on a lawyer.
