    Make money with this one weird trick by sending people paperwork they must fill out or else they owe you money. Accountants hate it!

      I mean this is basically how debt collection works provided that you had bought some paperwork in the wake of the 2008 housing crash and you send other paperwork to the leanholder, apparently.

    Please tell me he is literally putting JON DOE in his letter and not just using it as a placeholder for his real name (which I assume people can see) on Facebook…

    So thankful Wikipedia came through when I didn’t get what was going on:

    A4V may refer to:

    • A4V mutation, which causes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
    • Acceptance for value or Accepted for value, a scam based on a phony payment method promoted in the redemption movement

    Wait, is this one saying that he can just send some paperwork that obliges someone to enter into a contract?

    CFO of what is my question. There is no CFO of “the government” to send this letter to.

      Fairly certain that it’s gonna be a CFO of like… A car company. Within the realm of sovcit stuff, I find this one to be rather coherent, but maybe I’ve just been reading these for too long. He’s basically saying: in order to pay the “John Doe” debt, grab the money from the super special secret money account of “JOHN DOE”, and do that every month until it’s paid off. Relatively normal stuff, except that he should probably be asking the credit department instead of the CFO, and also that the super secret money account never existed.
