Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Massachusetts
Fair Crecit Practices
What recourse do I have when a collection agency attempts to collect a debt that I have disputed 3 times, including submitting certified, return receipt requests for validtion - yet the collection agency posted a negative statement against me referencing the debt is ''in collection''?
