This number was on a demand for payment from an alleged collection company, PennCredit Corporation. The collection demand letter claimed to be attempting to collect a parking ticket fine issued by Prince George's County, Maryland. I have never been to Maryland, I live in Alabama. The ticket was for a parking violation. The tag for the vehicle, which was sometimes described as a jeep and sometimes a 4 door Chevrolet, was not mine. I do not own either type of vehicle and never have and the tag was not the tag number on my car. I called Prince George's County parking ticket department. I was told that the ticket had been paid and that this ticket had not been referred to any collection agency. When I called the number on the collection demand, (800) 900-1361, I was told that although there were multiple irregularities in the paperwork, I would need to prove to them that the tag was not mine. Just proving that my tag for an entirely different car would not suffice and they still demanded payment. The phone number for the PennCredit Corporation is a different number. This obviously some kind of scam or fraud.
