Cutting a long story short.
A 'friend' and his wife have apparently moved to the Phils and left their debts.
All their mail is being sent to my address, which I agreed to.
I have been forwarding all their mail to the address he gave me.
Before he left he gave me his Manila address and £100 to cover costs
till he got settled.
About 2 weeks ago I received a phone call asking for him. The caller implied
he was representing his bank so I thought it was important and gave their
Phils address.
Today I received a visit from a debt collection company.
I don't really know all the grisly details but I feel really concerned
about this guy told me.
It seems the address does not exist!!
Now I am being told I am implicated as mine is the last known address!
This guy seemed quite nice at first but told me any court actions would be
served to my address, also that I would need to prove the stuff in my house
is really mine.
I think I know legally that nothing bad should happen to me, but...
I feel very stressed about this.
I have now posted a letter to this company stating my position, and that all mail received will be returned to sender as 'not known at this address'
I had no idea, I just put all mail into a packet and posted it on.
Does anyone have any suggestions what else I should do??
I keep thinking why anyone would do that to me. He must have known
waht would happen. Must admit now (in hindsight) I did wonder why
it was taking so long for him to contact me.
