Several years ago I accumulated a $20,000.00 debt to MBNA. after being unable to pay the debt a lawyer called James Anthony Cambece contacted me and told me that he had the debt and wanted a payment. After several attempts we settled on a $100.00 a month because at the time I was unemployed. I allowed him access to a checking account at the time. After several months I noticed that the payment was not being taken out of the account. I wrote him several letters askling him to take the money but to no avail. I have not heard from him or anyoone on his staff for 3 years, thenm I got a so called judgement from the NAF stating that they had awarded him a judgement of over $40,000.00 After some quick research I have learned that NAF is not what it appears to be. It is noting but a cover for a hedge fund and has had several judgements entered against them for fraud. Today I received a letter from an attorney in CT stating that he has been retained to collect a debt of $26,000.00 from me. I have contacted the attorney generals office in CT because apparently Attyt Cambece in not licensed to practice law in CT and my infact have violated the Fair Credit act by collecting my in CT. In fact until I received a letter from the NAF any contact that I had was from the law offices of Atty Cambece. One thing that I have not been able to find out is what is the SOL on debt in CT? The money is owed to MBNA and not Atty Cambece, he has never supplied confirmation of the debt or whether or not he has purchased the debt from MBNA
I am in the process of filing a camplaint against Atty Cambece in CT and MA for practicing law in CT without a license. I am also preparing a complaint to the Atty Gen of CT concerning the NFA.
The debt is a combination of credit card and loan. It was a line of credit taken out in the 90's. I have never received a copy of any paperwork from Atty Cambece concerning his ownershi[ pof the debt. In fact since ready on your website about CACH I am thinking of filing a lawsuit against Atty Cambece for over this issue.
any help would be greatly appreciated
