Tricked by a bill collector by: DebtCollectionAnswers
This is a perfect example of when it makes sense to talk with a consumer law attorney who regularly represents consumers dealing with debt collectors. If the debt collector broke the law (misrepresenting the natures or status of the debt, for example) she may be entitled to damages and the attorney may be willing to represent her at no charge. (Debt collectors who are found to violate the FDCPA must pay attorney's fees.)
