      I received an email from someone named ****** on June 5th requesting a payment to collect a debt related to a Real Real purchase. However, the email did not provide any specific date or additional information. Since I did not recognize the sender, I initially responded that I was on a payment plan and not behind on payments because I was unaware of the debt. I suggested they send me the details by mail; I provided my address. About a month later, I received another email with the supposed debt attached, but it still needed more information. When I called Affirm to inquire about this, I was informed that someone had already provided the information to me, which was incorrect because I did not call anyone at their office. I am still waiting to receive the information by mail so that I can investigate the debt further. If I owe this debt, I will contact the company to make the payment, but I still need to ascertain the origin of this debt as I believe I have already paid all debts owed to Affirm.
