    Collection Call?
    Boys I just received a call from a third world country saying I have an outstanding debt with Wal-Mart from 4 years ago?

    I asked the non-speaking agent what the purchase was and she could not tell me.

    All she could tell me was the total amount and the date the charge was made.

    I requested the information in writing and she said okay.

    Does this sound strange to you?

    I don't SHOP at Wal-Mart.

    Boys Patrick Bateman may be a lot of things but I am not a deadbeat. Thats for sure.

    I don't when the collection call comes in

        ask her what collection company she is from and do research. Pull your credit report. Maybe someone did some id theft or it is just a scam.

            How do you get into debt with walmart? Don't you have to pay for everything upfront?

                      Sounds like a scam to me, bet she was asking if you can pay with your credit card now right?

                            I think Wal Mart loses about 10k per store per day. Its like taking candy from a baby stealing from that place.

                            I worked at JCPenney for a couple years and they had a head of security guy who was an ex special agent for the military or some sht. They had 2 other guys who did nothing but pretend to shop all day looking for shoplifters. I have no idea how they paid for this kind of security but nobody stole a dam thing from that place.

                            Wal Mart on the other hand has 1 95 year old man at the entrance with 50 people at any second in time coming in and out. he will pick 1 out of every 200 customers to check their receipt but never even matches it with the stuff in the bag. Somehow my sister has managed to be arrested twice at Wal Mart for shoplifting though. She's probably stole 20k from each WM in the city though. The rock boys will give 80 worth of rocks for every 100 in WM gift cards.

                                    if its not on a credit report of your's, fuk it. If it is, dispute it, simple as that, to pay them would be laughable, there isn't dick they can do, and in a few more years, it won't even on the books anymore.
