No, a debt collector cannot contact you at unreasonable times. They are generally restricted to contacting you between 8 am and 9 pm, local time. If they contact you outside of these hours, they may be violating the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.
The rule is the debt collector is bound by the laws of the state the collection action is being taken in. If the debt collector is not licensed or authorized in that state, it cannot legally act to collect the debt. Check with your state agency that licenses debt collectors. The debt collector can retain a local attorney to collect the debt, of course, and that would be under Michigan Law.
No, debt collectors cannot threaten you with felony charges. It is illegal for debt collectors to falsely represent the consequences of not paying a debt, including threats of criminal charges. If a debt collector engages in this behavior, you can report them to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
The right to notify a debt collector in writing to cease further communication is covered under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). This request, commonly known as a cease and desist letter, requires the debt collector to stop contacting you except to inform you that further efforts to collect the debt have ceased or that specific actions may be taken.

The collector, as the agent of the creditor can go back to the creditor and request a reconciliation of payments and history, and will in fact be required to so that it van be verified if you notify the collector in writing that the debt is invalid due to payment or some other reason.
