Remember new give out your information to anyone who asks for in through phone or email.

Do you know how many people give out there Bank account information to so called debt collectors over the phone to pay by electronic check? Never do that, it can lead to nothing but problems.

You are so right! I never give out information over the phone! who are these people taking the info! Never bank accounts nor social sercuity numbers! I dont care who they might say they are!
