Still can't find them and the attorney's who represent them won't give me their phone number. Funny how a "corporation" doesn't have a public phone number. If you guys can help I'd really appreciate it. They were last recorded to be in Rockville MD. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a fraudulent company.
Wolpov and Abrahamson(sp?) I presume. http://www.dc.bbb.org/report.html?compid=W23007631&national=Y Found this on bbb.org. No real number. My guess is Wolpov and Platinum are the same people. Don't give them any money.
Below is all I could find for you. At least there is an address. Platinum Financial Services General Information Street Address: P.O. Box 10247 Rockville, MD 20849 Telephone Number: (202) 000-0000 BBB Business Classification: Unable To Classify The information in this report has either been provided by the company, or has been compiled by the Bureau from other sources.

DO NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE ANY INFO. SAY YOU WANT TO HAVE THE DEBT VALIDATED AND YOU WILL CONTACT THEM BY MAIL. Here's the thing. If you have a charge-off or something, these people are going to try and get you to settle. Then, guess what? It's going to be very tough to dispute the tradeline with the CRAs. It will be newly updated, etc. And, you know, an CO is a CO is a CO. Morally speaking, you should not stiff any creditor. But, chances are, these guys bought your debt for pennies on the dollar.
