I received a notice from a collection agency this week saying that they are collecting a past due bill from October, 1998. I haven't kept any cancelled checks since that was over 8 years ago and now how can I proved that I paid the bill and why am I just now being notified? I live in Michigan, please help!!!


They have not prove that you owe the alleged debt. It doesn't really matter anyway, because the statute of limitations has run (long ago, Michigan is 6 years). I would send them a letter (registered RR) and tell them that the SOL has run on any alleged debt that old in Michigan, and to cease any and all contact. They are trying to rip you off, hoping you'll make some payment, and thus bring the debt back into the SOL.
