Description

Use this form to notify a debt collector they violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). Receiving notice from a consumer makes it more likely a debt collector will comply with the FDCPA. If they don't comply after receiving notice, your notice letter may help prove that their actions were intentional.

A debt collector may not use any false, deceptive, or misleading representation or means in connection with the collection of a debt. This includes falsely representing the character, amount, or legal status of any debt.

Some states have a statute of limitations limiting the length of time a debt may be collected. If a debt is older than the statute of limitations, it is considered "time barred." A debt collector might say you are legally obligated to pay a time barred debt. If so, they are falsely representing the legal status of the debt.
