If for some reason you couldn’t find the funds to pay all your monthly bills or you have had the misfortunate to be wrongly accused of owing money you are covered from being harassed by provisions in the 1978 Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).

If you have found that a debt collector from Monarch Recovery Management, Inc. has been calling you over and over again, you may find you are eligible to file an FDCPA lawsuit against the agency.

Sometimes debtors feeling afraid so pay up to avoid any more harassment whether they believe they owe the money or not.
You are legally entitled to ask the debt collector to forward a debt validation letter to you confirming that it is your debt. If you think the debt is not yours you can act by sending a debt verification letter asking for more details about the debt.
