FDCPA?
The FDCPA restricts debt collectors from engaging in conduct including the following:
•Contacting a third party who does not owe the debt, such as a relative, neighbor, or your employer. Co-signers to the debt, however, may be contacted by the debt collector;
•Threatening to refer your account to an attorney, harm your credit rating, repossession or garnishment, without actual intention of action on the threat. Please note that a debt collector may warn you of an actual impending intention to refer your case to an attorney or to report your debt to a credit agency. What they cannot do is use a false threat to try to intimidate you into paying;
•Making repeated telephone calls or telephone calls at unreasonable times. The act defines unreasonable times as contat before 8:00 AM or after 9:00 PM, unless you have given the debt collector permission to contact you during those hours;
•Placing telephone calls to an inconvenient place. For example, contacting you at work in violation of a policy by your employer that is known to the debt collector or following a request by you that they not contact you at work;
•When placing a telephone call to you at work, informing your employer of the purpose of the call, unless first asked by the employer;
•Using obscenity, racial slurs or insults;
•Sending letters which appear to have come from a court;
•Seeking collection fees or interest charges not permitted by your contract or by state law;
•Requesting post-dated checks with the intention to prosecute if they bounce;
•Suing in courts far removed from your place of residence;
•Making certain false representations in association with efforts to collect the debt, including the false claim that the person contacting you in relation to the debt is an attorney, falsely claiming to have started a lawsuit, using a false name, or using stationery that is designed to look like an official court or government communication;
•Using false claims to collect information about the debtor, such as pretending to be conducting a survey;
•Threatening you with arrest if you do not pay the debt.
Also call the Nevada Department of Business and Industry....you can make a complaint there

..."
Most consumer complaints from other sources indicate tactics aimed at evading validation as well. Most of these also indicate the consumers believe they do not owe the alleged "debt".
In addition, there is a clear pattern of "shill" posts aimed at creating the public perception that if consumers don't pay you off immediately, you sue and grab much more than your initial claim. Initially the shill posts attempted to portray the company's tactics reported by others as perfectly legal. More recently, shill posts have attempted to portray the company as following FDCPA required notice and validation requirements. The public can track the evolving shill tactics, as they are adapted in response to rising levels of complaints.
Evading validation through threats or harassment, combined with harassing the wrong people, indicates a pattern consistent with fraudulent collection of phony debts. Such schemes are often accompanied by shill posts to consumer complaint forums, whereas normal debt collectors, even those with compliance problems, might have responses from alleged employees, but seldom have shill posts showing up on consumer complaint forums.
No doubt you have planned out excuses for why everything is as it is, but why all the games, if you are as "legitimate" as you claim?
Seems a bit high, given the size of the company.

In addition, contact the Nevada Division of Financial Institutions, which is responsible for regulating debt collectors in the state of Nevada. Although they currently appear to be licensed in the state of Nevada, they had a run-in with this agency a year ago due to engaging in debt collection without any license.
