FDCPA Violation · Massachusetts
Is a debt collector demanding a larger balance than you actually owe in Massachusetts?
Force them to stop instantly — and build your case for $1,000+ in statutory damages.
Under federal law, this exact tactic is a violation of 15 U.S.C. § 1692e(2)(A). Collectors may only add interest, fees, or charges expressly authorized by the original contract or state law. 'Collection fees' on top of a credit card balance are usually unlawful. Use our engine to generate an ironclad Federal Cease & Desist and Debt Validation notice in under 60 seconds.
Your rights in Massachusetts
Collection agencies rely on fear and intimidation. Here is the exact consumer rights you hold over them right now.
Federal protection — 15 U.S.C. § 1692e(2)(A)
It is illegal to misrepresent the character, amount, or legal status of any debt — including tacking on unauthorized interest or fees.
Massachusetts adds: Massachusetts Chapter 93A and Attorney General Debt Collection Regs
Double or treble damages plus attorney's fees under 93A. State remedies stack on top of federal FDCPA damages.
The $1,000 penalty box
$1,000 federal statutory damages, plus actual damages equal to the unlawful overcharge, plus state UDAP penalties.
Evidence to lock in your case
Request validation and compare the collector's claimed balance against your original creditor's last statement. Highlight every added charge.
Crucial rule: Once you send an official written Cease & Desist notice, the collector is legally banned from contacting you again — except to confirm they are stopping or to take you to court. If they call you one more time after receiving this letter, you have an open-and-shut lawsuit.
