I, too, have received letters from a law firm, JBC Associates, about a bounced check from 1995. The check was for $13; the bank has no record of this check. It's from an account and a bank that has changed names several times. The local business that the check was written to is no longer in business--the owner has passed away. The law firm has sent three letters and each time the amount owed has increased. Is this a sham? : A local law firm has just notified me that on 8/16/1993 I wrote a check to CVS for $13.05, it bounced and that I never paid for it. They are now telling me that, since I ignored their first attempt to collect 40 days ago (a letter I never received) I must now pay $138.00 immediately according to NJSA 2A:32A-1. I can not recall ANY bounced check EVER at CVS and, if I had done this I would have taken care of it as soon as notified. Isn't there a statute of limitations?
