My mother added me to her account as an authorized user a few years ago to help me build credit. I have not used the credit card till date. I have a few credit cards of my own now. My mother has racked up credit card debt. She does not make proper payments on the card. This is affecting my credit score negatively. Moreover, my creditors’ are calling me regarding the debt. What can I do in this situation?

My payday loan has been sold to a collection agency. They have made a settlement offer to me. Should I accept the offer or pay the full amount? I’m hearing that the account status will updated as "paid" on my credit report irrespective of the mode of payment. I live in Maine. The name of the payday loan company is Paydayone.com.
