What is considered creditor harassment?

According to the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act (CCPA) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), debt collectors are banned from using certain abusive and dishonest tactics when engaging with consumers. These acts protect individuals who are dealing with debt and struggling to pay it back.

Included in the above acts are specific practices which cannot be used by creditors or collection agencies. This refers to practices such as:

  • Pretending to be a police officer acting for the government
  • Using or threatening to use violence
  • Calling between 9 p.m. and 8 a.m.
  • Using wrong methods to file a lawsuit against you
  • Communicating with you instead of with your attorney
  • Using obscene or vulgar language

If a creditor does violate these terms, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit against the individual or party at fault. By winning, the court may award you actual damages, punitive damages, and statutory damages up to $1,000.
