  I found out I was being sued by Velocity *************** I have never received any documents from this company. I have not received mail, email, or voicemail from this company. I am not sure on behalf of what company they are collecting for, if they can provide me the information and it is correct I will be happy to settle it with them, but since they haven't then I am in the dark about this.

  Threats of legal action by Velocity Investments LLC via letter have arrived in the last few weeks. I have no idea who they are or why they are contacting me per an alleged debt. This type of harassment and big money legal bullying is unwelcomed and needs to stop now. Especially in regards to any debt, unexplained and not validated.
