In a nutshell, this company is currently jeopardizing my ability to purchase a home by reporting a collection account for a medical bill that is not mine. I am fully insured ( I pay top dollar ) and have been for years. 

The medical bill in question occured on XXXX/XXXX/XXXX and at some hospital in texas that I have never been to. Also, I live in los angeles. When I called the debt collector ( Transworld Systems ), they claim there was no social security number attached to the claim they picked up but a birth date in XXXX ; I was born in XXXX. 

I do n't know whose debt this belongs to but the mere fact that a collection account has been reported under my name for a service unassociated with me while my spouse and I are in the midst of a home hunt should be iiegal and I wish to seek damages. 

They are currently in the process of deleting the collection but the inconveience and potential money this may cost me should be criminal. People are exploited every day by these companies while the government turns a blind eye. I 've had enough.
