Best Answer

Yes.

They usually sell your debt to another company. This new company "usually" does not have all the info and does not have the signed documents needed to win in court. They can be very aggressive, but will only threaten to take you to court. Some of this depends on the amount of the debt and how long it has been in collections. If they are calling you at work, ask for their mailing address and mail them and tell them to only contact you at home. If they do not follow this request, you can sue them.
