good news, bad news

One of the guys I work with has a ne'er-do-well brother in law that "traded" trucks with my friend and then took off in my buddy's truck and stole his identity. The guy wrote a string of bad checks all across the southwest and mountain west. I think the law finally caught up with him in Idaho or Wyoming after several weeks. My buddy got arrested and thrown in the clink and he had no idea what was going on. That's how he found out his BIL had ripped him off. It took him a couple of years to get everything straightened out, while his BIL did hard time in the graybar hotel.

I hope you and Kate can get this corrected. You won't get any sympathy or assistance from the collection agency. They will just try and lean on Kate until she pays them. You'll do better dealing with the lending bank itself.
