Consumer Narrative
XXXX XXXX via property manager XXXX XXXX a licensed real estate broker and XXXX XXXX the assistant to XXXX XXXX sent me an email on XXXX that I owed a debt for legal reimbursement that I do not owe and have never owed. It is a false statement and an illegal attempt to collect. The management company is considered to be a debt collector under Illinois state law. I am attaching the Illinois Condo Act Section 9.2 that a debt for attorneys fees are only due in the event of a violation or default. There was no violation and there was no default. The fee XXXX XXXX is trying to collect is certified mail fees, which are not collectable and are not the form of notice in any event under the Condo Declaration and Bylaws of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. a non=profit organization est XXXX. XXXX XXXX has previously done this XX/XX/XXXX and also committed identity/data theft of financial documents and bank passowrds of my job. I work at a bank FDIC. Not only has XXXX XXXX sent me an email for Legal Reimbursement on XXXX that is the same day that the fee ( illigal ) was placed on my assessment account ( not legal ). I am attaching the attorney letters for the violation that was originally sent to me and my attorney 's response. The original violation was fake and illegal and the Board of Directions ( who are harassing me and I have lots of documentation not speculation on that ) decided to cancel/forego the violation hearing once they received my attorney 's response requesting proof, photos, witness statements etc per Boucher V 111 E Chestnut ( 2019 ) IL Appelate Court ruling requiring due process, witnesses, and much more. Theyt don't follow the law. They want the building to be " NICE ' their words in writing, everyone knows what it means when a property manager and Assocication Board says " We want the building to be " NICE '' ''.
