Your rights with debt collectors

Under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act a collector must send you a validation notice with the amount and the creditor, and if you dispute the debt in writing within 30 days it must stop collecting until it verifies it. Collectors cannot harass you, lie, threaten arrest, or call at unusual times, and you can tell them in writing to stop contacting you.

Scam warning: Fake collectors threaten arrest, demand payment by gift card, wire or crypto, and refuse to put anything in writing. Ask for the validation notice and check the collector's name and number independently before you pay anything.
