   If in fact you owe a particular debt and furthermore you are   
   able to pay that debt, then it is true. You are best advised   
   to pay it. But that is not the case in many cases, especially   
   given the "upsidedown" economy; unemployment, underemployment,   
   bankruptcies, foreclosures, fraud, flimflamming, et cetera.   
   "Desperate men do desperate things." Many unscrupulous souls   
   are still in business and are therefore desperate, resorting   
   to unlawful and, in some cases, hard-core criminal practices.   
      
   And that is why the common man should be well informed and   
   forewarned against those who would seek to defraud them out   
   of their hard-earned money. If you think otherwise, then by   
   all means, pay them whatever they tell you to pay regardless   
   of whether you actually owe them said [imputed] debt or not.
