Not sure about the US but in the UK you should never pay over money to see where it goes. Paying a debt is an admission, and resets the clock on the time bar (

- silverbax88 9y agoI read that as well, and I'm pretty sure that's still the case in the US as well. You never pay "debts" unless you're sure it's legitimate. NEVER. And I say that as a person who has actually done some of the same things as the man in the article. Not to the lengths he has...but, yeah, I've spooked quite a few debt collectors. It's one of the few times in life you can unleash against all the wrongdoing in the world and aggressively berate/hound/harrass some scumbag who completely deserves it, and has no idea when they've crossed the wrong person.
