Just received a Call from someone saying they worked with PMG.  Saying that I was mailed a letter to settle on an account from six years ago, and I had 30 days to reply.  I never received a letter but after asking if I could be re-issued a letter they said that I had to answer them by the end of the business day with a good faith payment of $800.00 and the final to be paid in ten days.  Other than that I didn't get any other information as he said he was only able to inform me of the letter I never responded to.

I just received a call from a local process server saying they were faxed documents from PMG stating I was being sued. I did a search and found the following about PMG:

Baycorp was founded in 1956 in Lower Hutt, New Zealand. In 1973 the company expanded into the Bay of Plenty region, hence the origin of the name 'Bay'. The successful expansion of the company led to a listing on the New Zealand Stock Exchange in 1986. In 2001 Baycorp Holdings merged with Data Advantage to form Baycorp Advantage with dual listings on the Australian and New Zealand Stock Exchanges.

On 1 July 2006, Trans Tasman Collections (TTC) purchased Baycorp Advantage's debt collection business in Australia and New Zealand. TTC is a consortium consisting of Allco Equity Partners and DB Capital Partners. The new ownership delivers a committed and experienced board, strong financial backing and a clear future direction for the trans Tasman client base of Baycorp's debt collection business.

In July 2006, TTC also purchased Portfolio Management Group (PMG), a Sydney based debt collection business established in 1997, which focuses on the consumer debt purchase market.

Both the Baycorp collection business and PMG trade under the 'Baycorp' brand.

While Baycorp is no longer part of the Baycorp Advantage group, the company maintains strong commercial links with the Credit Bureau, allowing Baycorp to manage its clients' credit reporting and default listing requirements.

I just rec'd a call saying PMG was representing US Bank and that I was going to be served papers and sued by USB for 2300 on a 500 overdrawn bank acct from five yrs. Roy Fletcher as he introduced himself, said i had to pay by debit/CC at that moment or i would be sued automatically the next day. Luckily, I put him on hold, and called the county prosecutor's office and asked them about the case ref. # he gave me and they said it didn't exist!!! It is a total scam and though excellent, phony, believable on the phone DO NOT EVER GIVE OUT $ INFO OVER THE PHONE TO SOMEONE THREATENING TO SUE YOU/ PUT MISDEMEANOR ON YOUR RECORD.

Someone from PMG called my aging parents and said I was going to served papers for an old debt if I didn't settle up right away for an amount many times the original amount!   They were unwilling to tell where/what about these mysterious papers or anything specific about thier 'attempts to contact' me.  I have not recieved anything from this company or heard of them for that matter until the phone call.  They denied calling my parents but they left this number to call back. It appears to be a SCAM to me.  
They appeared to have run my credit report recently (without my consent btw). BEWARE and never ever give out your financial information without throughly checking.
