Is Money Matters Professional Collections, LLC Calling You?*


Debt collectors can be so ruthless that there have been reports of them hounding terminally ill cancer patients for medical debt payments. If you are dealing with a collection agency that exceeds the boundaries of professional and ethical behavior, there is a federal consumer protection law that can protect you.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) regulates the conduct of third-party debt collectors and provide consumers with important rights, such as the right to dispute a debt and tell a collection agency to stop contacting you.

You can also take legal action when a debt collector uses methods like the following to pressure you into paying.

  • Using an autodialer to send prerecorded calls to your phone
  • Shouting and swearing at you
  • Pretending to represent law enforcement or an attorney’s office
  • Demanding that you pay a debt included in an earlier bankruptcy
  • Saying that a lawsuit is imminent when it isn’t
  • Discussing your debt with uninvolved third parties

Alleged Violations against Money Matters Professional Collections, LLC

According to PACER, on or about August 29, 2017, Money Matters Professional Collections, LLC sent a collection letter to an Indiana consumer seeking payment for a medical debt.

It stated, in part, “Unless within 10 days you send payment to our office for the total amount due or contact us to make appropriate arrangements to pay this debt, we can and may file suit against you.”

This demand appeared to overshadow the 30-day dispute period. Feeling harassed by Money Matters Professional Collections, LLC, she filed an FDCPA lawsuit against the company for violating her rights by:

  • Using false, deceptive, and misleading means to collect a debt
  • Using unfair and unconscionable means to collect a debt

The matter was later resolved.
