Are You Being Called By Minisink Financial Corporation?


Debt collectors can drive you to distraction. Even though you lost your job after the lockdown, they call you constantly, threaten to expose your financial situation to your friends, and imply that legal action is imminent. This conduct is illegal, and you can make it stop.

Your Rights Under the FDCPA

In 1977, Congress passed the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, or FDCPA, because collection agencies were driving so many people to declare bankruptcy. The FDCPA protects people from harassment by making it illegal for debt collectors to use ruses like the following:

● Calling you constantly
● Pretending to be members of law enforcement
● Discussing the debt with anyone except you, your spouse, or your attorney
● Calling at inconvenient times
● Cursing at you and calling you names
● Demanding amounts that are not supported by law
