8 years ago I spent a night in the ER in Georgia after an accident. Never received a bill, never got a call, so I just forgot about it. I went on to make a lot of money, build a 800+ credit score, and even buy a house with no mortgage issues. My credit is excellent and is not tainted by anything. I've never had any reports of debt.
Now, I no longer live in Georgia, and I'm getting calls and letters from a legit collection agency demanding that I pay $12k for the ER visit. I've saved up a great emergency fund and could easily afford this... But should I? It seems way past the statute of limitations and it's not on my credit report. Why should I pay them anything? I'm thinking about having my lawyer tell them to stop contacting me.
