Can someone please help me??

I got a call from allied interstate this morning only after they called my dad and told him that he owned a $4,000 cc bill and when he said it wasn't his. They started I guess looking at the account more and it was mine but my question is can they run a credit report on my husband when his name insn't on the account at all and shouldn't they have sent me something in the mail showing that this bill was owed??


Under the federal laws, all debt collectors must validate the account on which they are doing the collections. Read more about the FDCPA laws in the FTC website. You should get something in writing within five business days from their first phone call.

Most collectors will run a credit check on that person who owes the debt and know about his financial history. They are not allowed to hit anything unless their is a legitimate purpose.
