Violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices
Debt collectors have a job to do, but there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it. Some debt collectors will not obey the rules and regulations laid out in the Fair Debt Collection Practices, which means you could be hounded at all hours of the night or continue to be harassed even after the debt collection should have stopped. Creditor harassment may include repeated/excessive phone calls, harassment, using obscene language, making threats, and contacting friends or family members to attempt to get to you.
