Hello,
I'm new to the ELI forums and I'm looking for some advice on my situation. I see some posts related to Higbee Associates and also posts about Adlife Marketing but none of the two together. My parents own a small deli and received the $8,000 invoice sometime last November over a picture I used to decorate the website. She didn't know what it was so she threw away the letter and invoice because she did not recall buying anything for that amount thinking it was a mistake. She said she received it a second time so she called the number but no one picked up so she disregarded it a second time. It's now April and she received a letter from Higbee & Associates representing "Adlife Marketing & Communications Co. Inc., [...]a photographer who earns a living by licensing his photographs."
So far, I've only researched enough to find ELI Forums and figure out that this is potentially a scam. I haven't really been able to piece together my next steps from the forums since I lack the knowledge as of right now. I've been reading the past hour and I'm still unsure where I should begin since no one's situation is exactly like mine. Can anyone please give me some suggestions or point me in some direction ? I'd really appreciate the help.
Thank You.
