Complaint narrative:
About a month ago we got a bill from Discover for XXXX which included XXXX in their fees and XXXX interest charges. We havent had a Discover card for many YEARS and this is the first bill we have received in YEARS? We are retired and figure they are trying to scam us. They want a total of XXXX dollars. We got a letter from someone claiming to be a collection agency. They say we now owe XXXX dollars a month later. We would have no problem paying this money but Im betting its a scam. They want a call or a letter. I am worried about contacting them in any way for fear they will figure out how to tap into one of our accounts. The debt company said they were XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ny XXXX. WE HAVE NOT USED A DISCOVER CARD IN MANY YEARS AND WE JUST NOW GET OUR FIRST BILL??? I smell a rat and hope you can help. Please let me know as my next step is to contact my lawyer and he will likely end up a lot more expensive than just paying these probable crooks. But this kind of XXXX needs to be fought to protect the XXXX in this country.
