A debt collector can tell you and is required by the FTC to provide you in writing the name of the person or company you owe the money to, the amount of the debt, and what you can do if you think you do not owe the debt. If you need to know more information about debt's you owe,contact the FTC.

Federal law, and most State laws forbid giving any information about a debt to anyone other than the debtor, or the debtors spouse in some States. The person who works with you could file a complaint with the FTC and possibly sue through a consumer rights attorney for violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Of course, your testimony as to what information the debt collector gave you about them would be helpful.
