When You Have Become the Victim of Collection Abuses
Most people in America today owe money. They do the best they can to pay but often, due to circumstances beyond their control — circumstances like illness, divorce or loss of a job — they fall behind.
What they should know is that certain state and federal laws protect the borrower from creditor harassment and other creditor abuses. These creditors are entitled to make reasonable efforts to collect the money due them, but they are generally controlled by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA).
This means that they cannot scare or threaten you into paying a debt owed. They also cannot contact you during certain times, like late at night, and they cannot contact you repeatedly so as to make your life unmanageable.
