Issue: Attempts to collect debt not owed — Debt was paid
Company: Coast to Coast Financial Solutions, Inc.
State: VA

Complaint narrative:
My family is currently XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX  and we were sent a late notice for one of our utilities ( trash ) from our house before we departed. 

When we received the debt collection notice it said if paid directly with the original debt holder that we could ignore the notice. 

So we paid the bill directly with the utility provider to make sure we were not incurring more debt ( it is a utility ). 

Despite paying the debt we keep receiving bills from the debt collector. Since we live overseas in a remote location we can't just send mail to dispute the debt and it takes us 1-2 months to receive mail. 

Finally after threatening negative credit reporting from the debt collector... we just paid the bill ( again ). I was worried about the negative credit reporting, so I paid the debt preemptively. 

We should not have to pay the bill twice.

Company: Netspend Corporation
State: NY

Complaint narrative:
It started by an email displaying PayPal 's legitimate website and there was an attempt from an unknown source trying to withdraw XXXX in bio coins from my account invoice # XXXX. They applied me with Paypal 's toll free phone number XXXX, that's why I responded. Once I called, an agent by the name of XXXX who had an XXXX XXXX  answered and told me that he was going to walk me through to have this charge reverse. He had me go to this website XXXX because the other ones he gave me wasn't working. Once I downloaded the website he said that he had access to my account, this appeared to be a sharing process, and had me type this email XXXX and to send $ XXXX to it. This is the transaction number XXXX, A name of XXXX XXXX appeared and the transaction went through not knowing he was leading me to the XXXX. I felt uneasy once it was over. What made me suspicious is when the toll free number had a message saying you have XXXX more seconds for this call to end. He also said in the conversation that if we were disconnected he would call me from his personal phone, XXXX which he did. He also gave me an IP computer number and a service code XXXX to gain access to my device. This is most definitely fraud from within this organization that scammers have access to customers information. 

As an American born and bread citizen, I feel vulnerable and violated and concluded that PayPal has too many thieves amongst them and will no longer use their services if I want to protect my personal identity which I have every right to.
