Being Called By MSW Capital, LLC? Here’s What to Know

Stop the
Harassment

You have legal rights. We can help.

 


Many people fall into debt due to circumstances beyond their control, but this doesn’t stop debt collectors from hounding them nonstop, so it is important to know your rights when you’re dealing with third-party collection agencies.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, was established in 1977 to combat collection agencies that were hounding people into bankruptcy. The FDCPA penalizes debt collectors who use methods like the following to collect a debt.

  • Swearing and calling you names
  • Talking to uninvolved parties about the debt
  • Calling you at your workplace
  • Demanding illegal ‘fees’ in addition to the original debt
  • Telling you that you can be arrested if you don’t pay
  • Failing to report a dispute to the credit bureaus
