Also, I have a friend that did have her bank account levied by a law firm representing a CA. It can happen. Once the CA gets a default judgment, then your paycheck and your bank accounts are up for grabs. That's why you have to fight these crooks!
Ur right Jen "AFTER" they get a judgement but not until!
And i have a default judgment, went to court a few months back, gave them ALL my banking info and they never took a dime out of it... but i do have another court date set for Monday, they're trying to garnish my husband's wages since we're in a community property state... So now i made a settlement with them to avoid this....

Some creditors and collection agencies refuse to lower the pay off amount, interest rate, and fees owed by the consumer.
Creditors/collection agencies can make collection calls and file lawsuits against the consumers represented by the debt relief companies.
Debt relief services may have a negative impact on the consumer's creditworthiness and his overall debt amount may increase due to the accumulation of extra fees.
The amount which the consumer saves with the use of debt relief services can be regarded as taxable income.
