Company: Novea Portfolio Management LLC

Complaint narrative:
Received letter in the mail from XXXX XXXX XXXX claiming they were a third party trying to collect a debt originally owed to XXXX XXXX but their current client is Novea Prtfolio Management LLC for {$570.00} but they would accept {$110.00} to resolve the issue. I have never had an unpaid debt and have never interacted with either of these companies. There is no additional information about the debt other than the statute of limitations on collecting the debt is expired. A search of the internet and the XXXX complaint database show hundreds of complaints for this company trying to collect debts from people that do not own the money, often followed up by harassing phone calls, though I have not yet experienced this as I just received the letter. 

This is the the text from the letter : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.
