Can a debt collector talk to other people about my debt?

If you have an attorney, the debt collector can only contact the attorney and not you. If you do not have a lawyer, a bill collector can contact other people but only to find out where you are. The cannot tell you about the debt and their opinion about you and the debt. Most collectors are usually prohibited from contacting such third parties more than once. Usually the collector may not tell anyone other than you and your lawyer that you owe money. If you have any questions about collections, you should read the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
