The law makes it illegal for debt collectors to harass debtors in other ways, including threats of bodily harm or arrest. They also cannot lie or use profane or obscene language. Additionally, debt collectors cannot threaten to sue a debtor unless they truly intend to take that debtor to court.
If a debt collector violates the FDCPA, you may sue that collector in state or federal court. You can even sue in small claims court. You must do this within one year from the date on which the violation occurred.
