What Is Considered Creditor Harassment?

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), it is unlawful for debt collectors to act in any way that is considered to be abusive, deceptive, or unfair.

There are a variety of types of conduct prohibited by the FDCPA, including:

  • Calling someone excessively
  • Using threats of violence or harm
  • Using obscene or profane language
  • Lying about the amount of money owed
  • Publishing a list of names of people who refuse to pay their debts
  • Telling people they will be arrested if they do not pay their debts
  • Making false statements to try to scare an individual into paying
  • Using a fictitious company name
  • Giving false credit information about someone to anyone else
  • Sending anything that is meant to look like an official court or government document
  • Adding fees, costs, or interest to a debt without legal authorization
  • Depositing a post-dated check prior to the date listed on the check

Those who have been mistreated by debt collectors may be able to file a lawsuit against them. It is best to consult with a qualified lawyer to find out if this action is possible and appropriate for your specific situation.

    "In the mid-1990s, I became so overwhelmed with the volume of new bankruptcy clients that I had to give up my trial practice to concentrate full-time as a bankruptcy lawyer. I have exclusively concentrated on consumer and business bankruptcy cases since that time.
    I was awarded a Board Certification in Consumer Bankruptcy Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in 2001, and I have been so certified ever since."
