Federal law strictly prohibits debt collectors from revealing your debt to third parties like family, friends, or your employer, limiting contact with them solely to verifying your location details. Additionally, collectors are forbidden from calling your workplace entirely if you notify them that your employer bans personal calls.
Debt collectors can’t disclose your debt to others. They can only contact others to find your address, phone number, or workplace. Learn your rights and limits.
