I received a letter from the American Coradius International LLC on 3/13/25 stating I have a balance of $1,519.12 for ****** Credit. I will attach the letter for your review.
I have contacted ****** Customer support who have confirmed they have not sent any letters for collections nor do I owe an amount that large, ****** Customer Support then redirected me to ****** Credit support which is through ********* Bank who informed me "Letters that do not came from ********* Bank directly and are related to ****** Credit are a fraud/scam and should be reported and I do not owe a $1,519.12 balance with them and my account is in good standing and current on payments".
I will also attach a screenshot of my ****** account showing I do not have any ****** monthly transactions open. I only have a ****** Credit with a $327.43 balance which is in good standing and current.
The Creditor on the Fraud letter also does not match the ****** Credit provider which is ********* Bank, the letter provides *******.
If you need anything else from me please let me know so I can get you the information you need for review.
Thank you!Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
There isn’t any validation of date of when ACI “acquired” this debt as I was already in a payment plan with ****** and in the attached documents you can clearly see that I satisfied all debts with ******. I sounds like ACI is trying to take advantage of the system and scam people.

I received a letter in the mail on March 1, 2025 from American Coradius International LLC informing me that it was an attempt to collect a debt for $1978.36. This was the first time I'm learning about the alleged debt, and the balance owed was as of 05/05/24. There was no description of the charges except that it was from a ****** monthly account from a ******* account. I've never had an account with ******* nor did any transaction with them. In addition, I have not used my ****** for large transactions and the last time I used it was in April 2024. I tried to contact ACI by phone to no avail so I am hoping the BBB can resolve this matter for me.Business Response
