Nothing is due to TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS, who has also tried to collect the same debt under the name TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INCORPORATED, because I never agreed to a contract with them. The unauthorized account opened by TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS AND TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INCORPORATED on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS  AND TRANSWORLD SYSTEMS INCORPORATED was contacted in regards to an account opened which includes XXXX XXXX XXXX.
