Sunrise Credit Services Scam, Fraud, Deceptive Practices....Beware! Farmingdale, New York
I received a letter from Sunrise Credit Service, Inc on January 30, 2012. The letter explained that I owed $18.00 for a magazine subscription and that Sunrise was hired by Hearst Publishing to collect the debt. I never ordered any magazine subscription from anyone. Sunrise Credit Service requested that I email an explanation to them as to why I did not pay for the subscription. They provided their email address but no return mailing address.
I googled the company found their physical address. I mailed a certified letter with a return receipt requesting a validation of debt to the physical address. The return receipt was received by Sunrise Credit Services on February 3, 2012. I requested their license and registered agent numbers, a verification that the statue of limitations has not expired, a letter of sale from the original creditor to Sunrise Credit Service giving them the right to collect the alleged debt, verification that Sunrise can legally collect in my state.
I also googled and found a lot of posts regarding this company and their deceptive practices regarding unordered magazine subcriptions. I also reported this company to the FTC. To date I have not received any validation of debt nor any further requests to pay $18.00. Beware!!! Always guard your rights!
