There are many different types of debts for which debt collectors may harass you and use deceptive practices in an attempt to collect the debt. The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA) protects you from debt collection harassment for a wide-range of debts. This includes the following types of debts:
- Credit Card debt;
- Student loans;
- Residential leases;
- Bank loans;
- Automobile loans;
- Medical bills;
- Retail credit cards; and
- Utility bills.
There are both federal laws and state laws which protect you from debt collection harassment. Although there are some differences in the rules which apply to different types of debts, each of these types of debts have protections under the FDCPA.
