vibhavsinha··on TeamViewer sends collection agency if missed emails, even after making payment
TeamViewer support has confirmed that they "transferred the case" to this agency since I didn't respond to their email.(Screenshot of their response in Twitter thread)

While they were doing this, their website portal showed no indication of any pending payment and let me purchase their business plan.

Thanks for your assuring words. It is ~ €300 which is the price of their annual business plan. I redacted the precision and decimals to avoid identifiable info when uploading media to imgur.

They are not asking for direct payment. They want me to pay the collection agency. I am not going to make an international payment to some random company that I have no idea about. I suspect they want me to do this because closing internally with the company will mean admitting to the agency that they sold a bad debt.

If I log-in to my TeamViewer account, there is no indication of what a "license" is or if I have a pending payment. When I tried using TeamViewer with a client, it said license is no longer valid, so I purchased again. I don't understand how they justify such practices.

I am the tweet author. Not sure how such things are legal. I am scared from getting threat of legal action from a foreign entity. This is what I received from the collection agency: https://imgur.com/a/ma5ukLP
