Updated address for Midland Credit Management Inc

A friend of mine received a phone call from MCM yesterday. He was told about my debt, given the last 4 of my social, birthday, amount owed, when the account was opened and how long it had been delenquent. Is this legal? I just happened to be with this friend when he got the call. I was furious. How can they do this? It's not only humiliating and embarrassing, its BS!!! What do you do? I had an old Household Finance bill that became delinquent. Went through a divorce in early 2000 and tried to keep up with all the bills, was not able to make payments after 2006. Went through some health problems and lost both parents. Now I receive letters and phone calls all the time. They call day in and day out. How do I get them to stop? And furthermore, do I have any recourse about them leaking my personal information to someone I am not related to? They are hateful when you talk to them. I told them I would only be able to pay them $10/month as I have no income at this time. They told me it was unexceptable

Unacceptable...oops

The Credit Companies need to be trained regarding tactics. This company called after 9:00 p.m. , When given my telephone number they continued to call other numbers, not the number given. When asked about the debt, they would not comply, but asked me to give them my social security number, which I did not do. I asked them to send me a copy of the debt. The company the debt was acquired, I was not familiar with it. They ask and give out information regarding the, said debtor to others--violation of privacy--but wont give out information regarding the debt.
