I just recieved in the mail a letter from the magistrate that a collection agency is suing me for a debt i incrued over 3 years ago. I understand that i do have to pay it. But everytime I would call the collection agency they would always want all the money up front. And I did not have 3000 dollars to my name. They wouldnt take any other way. Within a year the 3000 dollar debt now jumped to 5400 dollars. For 1...How could it have jumped that high within only a year. That is almost like 100% interest if thats what they are charging. Also, what should I do about the court date. Its a month away. I do not own a car or house. I dont own anything. I only have a part time job that i make maybe 200 every 2 weeks, so would garnishing my wages really matter. I just need advice on how to proceed wit
