Information on someone avoiding CCJs - what to do?

Hi all,

I've recently become aware of somebody who's been avoiding CCJs, bailiffs and debt collection letters through using false names and addresses. I believe I could have some information which would be useful to the people who are trying to get hold of this person. Who would be the best person to speak to regarding the information?

    why waste your time?? what goes around comes around and they will soon catch up with the deceiving person. If the creditors are hassling you personally with regards to the persons where abouts by all means tell them what you know.

    WHen you say 'false names' if you think this person is stealing someones identity then notify the police if they are just using another name then i'm afraid there is no law against it. You can be knows but any name you choose.

    Are they using false names & addresses to obtain credit? If they are then its a police job.
    Or is it that they are claiming to be someone else when the bailiffs call? If thats the cast then I dont see that there is anything you can do.
