I suggest you at least contact a local consumer rights attorney to discuss any possible defenses you may have to a judgment. Additionally, each state has unique consumer protection laws to protect its citizens. Most consumer rights attorney offer free initial consultations. If you are unable to afford an attorney there are legal aid clinics available in some locations that might be able to assist you.
