The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act is a federal law that prohibits certain methods of debt collection, such as harassment.  This Act was designed to prohibit debt collectors from unfair, deceptive, or abusive practices when collecting credit card debts and other debts, to support fair debt collection, and provide consumers with a way to have access to and dispute any discrepancies being reported on their credit report.  The Act provides collection guidelines for debt collectors, the rights of consumers who are involved in debt collection, and the penalties for improper collection practices by credit card companies and other debt collectors.
