Product: Debt collection

I am being extorted and harassed by Linebarger, Goggan, Blair & Sampson, LLP for a debt was paid immediately upon being notified of a toll amount of {$5.00} was due to XXXX XXXX XXXX  ( XXXX  ) in XXXX, Virginia for using the Downtown tunnel on XX/XX/XXXX. 

I never received a toll bill from XXXX. XXXX mailed the bill to my previous home address. I moved from that location in XX/XX/XXXX and immediately changed my Driver 's License and vehicle registration to my new address. 

LGBS has no motivation to correct their mistakes. I believe they systematically implement high pressure intimidation tactics to extort money from out of state motorists. It is my opinion that LGBS is running a legally sanctioned scam that violates Virginia law. 

I submit the attached documentation and chronological order of events as evidence of the following behaviors by LGBS which in my opinion include : Extortion, intimidation, harassment, mail fraud, ethical misconduct, ignorance of the law, bad faith dealings, broken public trust and hiding behind their good old boy relationship with XXXX XXXX XXXX to run a legally sanctioned scam against out of state motorists.
