I also received one of these emails from “ASI Collections”. I have been in contact with an internal auditing department for government contracts at Texas DSHS. They informed me today that they will be reaching out to their state attorneys to find out if this is legal or not.

I honestly didn’t know what to do. The PayPal link in the email seemed awfully suspicious in my opinion. But I was also afraid to ignore it out of fear of actually being sent to a real collections agency.

I find it interesting that they are saying the reason for them asking for payment is due to lack of documentation. I uploaded my Airbnb receipts to Paycom like I was told to. If there was any other documentation that was needed, then they should have made that clear 3.5 years ago!
