I got a call from a guy named Kevin Scott in the legal department of New Leaf Solutions who said that they were going to start a lawsuit against me for a debt of $34,000 from July 2003 from a place I never heard of. He was very high pressure. He wanted me to give him money today, saying he'd take 10% and call it even. I told him that 2003 was ten years ago, thinking maybe he didn't know, and the statute of limitations on consumer debt in CT is 6 years. He said that didn't matter. I told him to send me something in writing and I'd look into it. He got angry and said "I'm sending you a summons!" and hung up on me. That made my day. Not many people can get a debt collector to hang up on them!
