Anyhow, here is my life story, I am a little disturbed by the way they treated me. I also read some reviews on them, where they went to courts and obtained several judgements against one singular case, adding on their "attorney fees" each time. I am not sure that is legal, but I see they are not that much concerned with adhering to law or ethical practices, and really count that people like me wouldn't know what to do.
What would you suggest, hire an attorney or what could I possibly do? One of my friends suggested I just keep sending the payments to them, but I am afraid that 1. they will find out what my bank account is; 2. they will take the payments without noting them and again will enter the judgement against me for even more money (which seems to be the case for several of their debtors reviewing them online). They are not interested in working out a plan with me; and I don't want to call them any longer, they treat me like I am the worst of the worst. They just sent me a statement stating that they are planning to obtain an Order for Supplemental Proceedings against me. What does that mean, can they take my one and only super old car I own, which is paid off?
Unrelated note: can anybody recommend good debt-settlement companies in Utah?

What they can do is place a lien on your assets. I think you should really bring this matter to the attention of an attorney.

I checked the laws and Utah is a one party consent state for recording calls. This means you can legally record the call without their knowledge since YOU know the recording is happening. Get to local radio shack and get the equipment you need. Call them back and let them break the law again. Then you take the tape to a NACA attorney and let the attorney sue their asses off!!! No collection agency should abusing you like that.
