Sold Debts - Legals

hi everyone
apologies if this ends up posted twice as already tried to and it didn seem to work.
I have several creditors and according to my post on saturday there's a weird thing happening whereby with a couple of creditors I have more than one agency claiming to own the debt. In one case 4 people claim to own 1 debt!!:mad: Also I'm sure I saw somewhere on here that your original creditor is supposed to let you know if they sell your debt - which none of mine have. Thinking about it, anyone could claim to own the debt and I could be paying a con artist without realising, not like its hard to get this info judging by the amount of unsolicited offers of loans to pay off my debts I get!!
Thinking I will redo my payplan 1st letter to include a request that if the debt has been sold could the original creditor please inform me of the correct details of who now owns the debt.
What does everyone think?
This is such a nightmare:eek:
