Traditionally, "junk" debt is considered a loan to a corporation that has high interest rate on the money being borrowed. Sometimes this interest is quite high- 14-18%. Junk debt financing was a major financing tool in LBOs (Leveraged Buyouts) and other corporate takeovers. The amount of junk debt is contingent on future cash flows of the company and its ability to service the debt (pay the annual interest). The junk debt has to be an integral part of the acquisition, restructuring and strategic plan for the company. The company can service its debt but eventually it will need to paid off, or pay down the debt, or restructure the debt. All is contingent on future sales and earnings and how the management (usually new) handles these particular hurdles.

The difference between an unliquidated debt and a liquidated debt is this: Liquidated Debt: A debt that has an exact monetary value. Unliquidated Debt: A debt that is undisputed as to its amount, but still under the liability of the debtor. Each one of these debts has a statute of limitations to it.

Junk debt buyer send you a 1099c?
Don't fill anything out. Junk debt buyers typically buy up debts which are past the period where their collection can be enforced. Each state has its own statute on collection of debts. For example, it's six years on a contracted agreement in Colorado. What that means is that after a period of six years has passed since the last payment on that account was made, no legal action can be taken against you as the debtor. What happens is that these junk debt agencies trick you into making a payment, then that resets the clock, meaning they have six years to file suit against you (and they will). Don't fall into that trap. Contact an attorney on the matter - they should be willing to give a free consultation - before you send anything to that collection agency.
