Consumer protection agencies like the Federal Trade Commission and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau regularly receive complaints about debt collector misconduct.
Many collection agencies violate the law to get your money, but few people are aware that they have the ability to stop the harassment.
Your Rights Under the FDCPA
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, was passed in 1977 to stop third-party debt collectors from hounding consumers into bankruptcy. Over 40 years later, it continues to penalize debt collectors that use strategies like the following to make you pay.
- Contacting you directly when they know that you have an attorney
- Trying to collect after you refuse to pay
- Failing to send a debt validation letter within five days of first contact
- Calling third parties regarding your debt
- Pretending to be law enforcement officers
