Five days ago I received a call from Source Receivables Management saying that i owed $283.20. I have zero debt and owe no one so i asked what he was talking about? He informed me that the debt is to Excell Telecommunications and that it is from 1998! Now granted I signed up with them through a rep but got out as soon as i realized that it was a pyramid scheme( within a month ). I returned all materials and the pagers (yes, it was THAT long ago!) to the rep and heard nothing else from them at all. Till now...
I requested something in writing and they sent me this:
"Genesis Financial solutions has placed your account with Source Receivables Management to collect the above amount due.Unless you notify us within 30 days after receiving this notice that you dispute this debt, we will assume the debt is valid. If you notify us in writing within 30 days that you dispute this debt, we will obtain verification of the debt or obtain a copy of a judgment and mail you a copy of such judgment. If you request of us in writing within 30 days after receiving this notice, we will provide you with the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor."

Sorry for the lengthy post but I wanted to make sure that i did not miss anything. I live in Michigan and I just checked my credit report with TransUnion and it is clear. How should I handle this?
Your help is greatly appreciated!


You simply write them a letter telling them that the debt is out of statutue of limitations and is time barred and to FOAD. Tell them to never contact you or anyone else about this debt again.

Do a search in the search box for a formal letter. Make sure you send it certified mail, return receipt requested.

Thank you for all your help. But now I am worried that this will mess with my credit. And why the heck is this coming up 12 years later? And Do I respond at all to their letter , or just send this C&D? What are the legal ramifications to this?
I am so glad that I found this forum! Thank you all!
It is so good to know that there are some good people out there! This is SO scary for me...
