Re: Creditor got ahold of x-wife and her sister!?

It's against the Fair Debt Collection act. Contact your state's Attorney General and the FTC (in the link I provided and report them). They can contact other people but only to find out your name, address and work location. They can't give them details regarding your situation. Nail them!! No, none of this will affect her credit.

I got a message from my x last night (been divorced for 7 years) and
said that XXXXXXXX called her AND her sister and told them I was
a "skip". My X and especially her sister have nothing to do with my
debts. Can a creditor legally tell someone that about another person?!

How in the world did they find a way to contact her who lives in
another state and her sister who I don't even know where she lives.

She's also worried that it's going to affect her credit which to me
would be impossible since all my debt accured years after our divorce.
