Debt collection I do not know

Complaint #1389835 submitted on 05/22/2015 relating to United Guaranty. Complaint relates to Debt collection I do not know - Cont'd attempts collect debt not owed Debt is not mine.

Complaint was submitted via Web and sent to the company on Friday 22nd May 2015.

Narrative (may be redacted).

I received a letter from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX stating that I owed {$7200.00} ( {$4800.00} principal and {$2400.00} interest ) to United Guaranty and they were collecting. I have never heard of this company and do not have any unpaid loans. Upon calling to inquire I was told that this was a student loan of my daughter 's that I had cosigned on from XXXX XXXX XXXX University in XXXX where she attended in XXXX. She has not had anyone contact her from this or any other collection agency and is currently making payments on her student loans monthly.XXXX XXXX told me they did not have to contact her because I was a cosigner of her loan and I was responsible for paying. This is the first I have heard of this issue and it seems shady to me since it was over 10 years ago and no one has contacted me about it or contacted my daughter. She is paying her loan so this seems like a scam of some sort.
