Is Account Brokers of Larimer County, Inc. Calling You?*


Are you being called by Account Brokers of Larimer County, Inc.? You may want to read this:

People can become overwhelmed by debt for reasons that have nothing to do with financial irresponsibility. They’ve been laid off, become too sick to work, or had an unexpected financial crisis like a divorce or emergency car repairs.

Debt collectors don’t always care, however, and can be ruthless in trying to make you pay.

It is important to remember that collecting debts is not against the law, but harassment is.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA regulates what debt collectors may say or do while communicating with consumers and prohibits practices like those below.

  • Raising their voice and making threats they have no intention of following up on
  • Threatening legal action they cannot take, such as having you arrested and seizing your assets
  • Calling at inconvenient times, usually before 8:00 a.m. and after 9:00 p.m.
  • Calling you at work after being informed that your boss does not permit such calls
  • Discussing the debt with anyone except the you, your attorney, spouse, or co-signer
  • Pretending to be police officers or government agents
