The following set of events that have transpired over the last couple of days will serve as sufficient proof to anybody that a debt collector can never be trusted to do anything but lie to you.
As you can see from a couple of the posts to this blog a couple of days or so ago, a new collection industry blog opened up and the modeator of that forum sent me an email telling me that he knew who I am and that he was personally inviting me to participate in their forum. He stated that he would not suspend me and that they had never suspended anyone. He even assured me that he would be standing by his computer to facilite my registration and log-in to the new forum and he did just that.
NOw then, to clarify matters, in the short couple of days that I was on their forum I posted about 12 or so messages and never insulted anyone even though a couple of the other posters did attack me rather vigorously, called me a pansy and a homosexual and made other very disparaging remarks. I never once responded in kind to their nasty comments.
Now, this morning I get the following message in my email which just goes to prove what kind of people debt collectors are and what their word is worth and obviously sheds the glaring light of truth on the words I say when I caution people never to to trust a debt collector to do anything, not even to clean bathrooms let alone have anything to do with your customers and above all why you should not trust them with your money by paying them anything at all.
A mans word is supposed to be his bond and if his word is no good then you can't trust him to collect for you because he will most likely cheat you out of money that rightfully belongs to you or delay paying you so long that you might as well have been cheated out of it.
It also proves that those states that make them account to the state for all moneys collected and the amounts still held in escrow and not yet paid to creditors have good reason for having passed those kinds of tough laws to regulate cebt collectors. All states ought to have those kinds of laws in place and with teeth in them that will put a debt collector who don't toe the line out of business and in jail where he belongs.
It also proves that you can't trust them as a consumer because if they will lie to you they will also not pay your creditors and when the creditors find out that they have not been paid then they will come after you again and maybe that time will be a few years down the line after you no longer have the proof that you paid them and then you can be forced to pay them again. All because you believed that the debt collector was an honest person.
It really don't make any difference whether the debt collector is as honest as the day is long as many of them are. Many of them are very reputable people with high ethical morals and standards and are the kinds of people who can be trusted but you can't know that for sure and so therefore as usual, a few bad apples spoil the whole barrel. As a result nobody can trust any of them. Not to collect a debt or pay those they have agreed to pay or for anything else. One simply cannot afford to take the chance.
Furthermore, after having read this posting telling you about what my experience has been, anybody posting to that message board can't be trusted to tell the truth either for the simple reason that if they continue to post there knowing what has happened to me then the old saying about Birds of a feather flock together will brand them for what they most likely are.
What must be considered is that if they will lie they will cheat and if they will cheat they will steal. Simple as that.
So after their grand promise not to ban me, they did it anyway. So the best advice I can give you is to heed my warning and don't even go there. Let the damned thing die a natural death unless it can find enough liars, cheats, thiefs, scalawags and other riff-raff to keep it going which shouldn't be hard for them to do. After all, the industry is argueably infested with that kind of people.

That's fine. I wasn't going to get into it anyway. But your action in this matter proves yet once again that anyone associated with the debt collection industry will not make an agreement and keep it, they tell you one thing and then turn around and do just the opposite. The word of a debt collector is worthless and not to be believed by anyone and you have proved that again.
I will be only too happy to post your email inviting me to join your forum and then your email below renigging on your word so that all and sundry can see it. Believe me it will soon be spread all over the internet. You will find your emails posted on my collectionindustry blog and on my creditwrench blog with the appropriate comments.
Have a nice day.
