Since you are dealing with bounced checks it is entirely possibl

Since you are dealing with bounced checks it is entirely possible that they can be sending this to a da's office

You would contact the DA and find out if they are really represe

You would contact the DA and find out if they are really representing them. You also need to find out how your state handles NSF checks. But as far as I know they will send it to a CA and try and collect it from there first before sending it to the DA. But with the added fees being so much I would check them out first. And if they are not representing the DA I would contact your states AG and DFI right away. Also if you sent them a DV letter collections are supposed to stop until it is validated. I still say contact you state.

I only had 1 check from a ligit business go to collections so I don't know for sure how they handle them now. So this is just what I would do if this happened to me. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

If you want to handle this from a court room prospect,each account would require an individual dv letter,certified return receipt of course.
