Trusting someone with a home can be risky, especially when money is involved.
One former roommate tried to pawn off their financial mess onto him, but he effortlessly dodged every creditor call, turning a petty revenge plot into a spectacular failure.
Read on for the full story!
“I have zero intention of paying this debt”
Former roommate fell out with me after I required them to actually pay rent and take care of themselves.
Apparently, their grand revenge plan was to give my phone number to all the creditors they’d defaulted to.
This meant he was soon flooded with unwanted calls.
This means I get calls nearly every day asking for “former roommate” from different banks and lenders.
It’s annoying as heck, and they don’t seem to understand that I neither know nor could care less where the person they’re looking for is.
So he begins to respond defiantly.
I’ve started responding with the line in the title when they ask for the former roommate.
I don’t say anything except, “I have zero intention of paying this debt,” which is true because it is not my debt.
Sometimes he has a little more fun with it.
Occasionally, I follow up with, “You may have to sue to get that money,” which is also true as far as I am aware.
Then I hang up. Sure showed me, bud!
Showed me you’ve defaulted on multiple lines of credit and are now running like heck from them.
Looks like this roommate’s ill advised plan backfired spectacularly.
Reddit is sure to get a kick out of this one.
It may be time to sell out this slimy roommate.

Pettiness only begets more pettiness.

This user has a tip on dealing with calls like these.

Sometimes it takes a while for creditors to finally get their hands on the right person.

His roommate left a trail of chaos, but he made handling it all look easy.
This is not the debtor you’re looking for.
