Your wages cannot be garnished for a payday loan in Maryland. Maryland has outlawed payday loans. They are unenforceable. The lenders will threaten you with garnishment, but they are powerless. They are simply trying to scare you into paying them. A legitimate collector would have to sue you in court for a judgement to get a garnishment. No collector can garnish your wages without a court order. You would know you had a court date because you would receive a summons to appear in court for your defense. Contact the Maryland Commissioner of Financial Regulation and they will initiate an investigation into the payday lender/collector that is hassling you.

I also have been looking into this and it seems the state wage garnishment laws are 10% of your gross income. Payday loans are prohibited in the state of NJ and they do have a usury law set in place. I do not know what our rights as consumers are when it comes to these internet payday companies. They state that we have to abide by their (payday loan sharks) state rules. I hope this is something, I have been trying to get out of this mess.
