If you are in the U.S. there are laws to protect you against this type of collection but first be sure that you are not a co-signer or in some way named on the debt. Write a letter keeping it professional in language but clear that you are not to be contacted again. Send it in a way that you are able to prove delivery such as registered and return requested or Fedex with signature required. When they receive the letter they are required to stop. Refer to the Fair

Debt Collection Practices Act at http://www.usdoj.gov

Can a debt collector have your drivers license revoked?

No, It is illegal for them to even suggest they can have your license revoked or have you arrested. Get informed! Read the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act booklet from the Federal Government. It tells you what collectors can and can't do. It also tells you what to do if they break the law while trying to collect from you. Remember, debt collectors MUST stop contacting you by phone if you request it by FAX or mail. Send a FAX or a letter with PROOF OF DELIVERY, to prove you sent the request. After they receive it, they must stop calling you and your family. They can only contact you by mail after that. Report them to the FTC if they don't stop.

A credit card company bothering a relative?

The credit card company may be calling your relative trying to locate a debtor - the best option is to either notify the company that you cannot locate the person being asked about or to give the company the debtor's contact information. Either way, the company should leave your relative alone once they have determined the debtor cannot be found at that location.
