This has the feel of a common scam perpetrated against innocent individuals. Do you have any knowledge regarding the loan or is this the first time you have heard of it? Obtain verification of the debt before paying anything. They are required by federal law, after written demand, to provide verification of the debt. Even then I would not make a payment as this does not appear to be a legitimate debt collection agency / law firm. Even in the letter they have violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
