How can I get a debt collector to stop contacting me?
Federal law protects you against being harassed by debt collectors. Write the collector a letter asking that they not contact you anymore. To ensure that the collector receives the letter, send it via certified mail.
However, if the debt belongs to you, even if a debt collector stops contacting you, you still owe the debt.
