WITHOUT RECOURSE NON-ASSUMPSIT Calls maybe recorded Ad Astra then sent me the alleged liability without any proof of agency, no true bill, and no original contract between AD ASTRA & XXXX XXXX. I sent them back an invoice for contacting me after failing to prove proof of agency, proof of claim, and proof of a true bill on or around 4/15/17 They now have sent a fee schedule as well. They have not removed anything from the credit agencies, and they now sent a fee schedule. This debt is not mine and they have not proven anything to suggest it is. I will file suit if this matter is not handled by them immediately. I will also report hem to the FDCPA.
