After years of hearing consumer complaints about the unethical behavior of third party debt collectors, the United States Congress passed the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) on September 20, 1977.

The FDCPA forbids debt collectors from engaging in abusive behavior, as well as making threats in attempts to collect delinquent debts. Debt collectors are also prohibited from implementing deceptive collection techniques, such as calling friends and family members.

One of the more powerful clauses written into the FDCPA allows consumers to send cease and desist letters requesting debt collectors stop all forms of communications.
