Cease and Desist Letter

This company doesn't honor a cease and desist letter .I just got off of the phone with them.They lied re: their scare tactics and at first said they didn't have the letter. When they did admit that they had the letter they still went with the scare tactics. They told my mother ( the acct. holder) who is 80 yrs old and has dementia that they were having the local police pick her up as they had an arrest warrant for her.That why I called . They still say that that they will take her to court and that I should be paying this if she can't. All of which is against the law. I told them they have to walk a fine line when speaking to a debtor. They replied that they were going to mark this account as a refusal to pay! No one ever said that to them. They finished with "it is sad to see an 80 yr old go to jail".I am filing charges against them.
Yes you must do that and shut them down. It is completely illeg
Yes you must do that and shut them down. It is completely illegal to tell people they can go to jail. Go get them!
Just go to the Federal Trade Commission and your State Attorney
Just go to the Federal Trade Commission and your State Attorney General's office and file cases against them They've revoked Federal laws (FDCPA) and should be punished. Don't call them anymore. If they do, they'll be breaking another Federal law, since they can't contact you after you send them a 'Cease and Desist' letter. Do tell us what happens.
