It won't hurt your credit[ Parent ] (none / 0) (#15)

*Disputed* charges cannot be dinged against your credit rating anyway. IIRC that's federal law.

Also, even if they eventually send such a fraudulent bill to a collection agency, if you continue to dispute it (and particularly if you have any sort of records to back you up), chances are it will be dropped as uncollectable, and it will NOT show up against your credit. (Been there, done that.)
