New Video Explains Rights of Consumers Facing Debt Collection
January 22nd, 2010

During uncertain economic times, it’s especially important that people not only know how to manage their debt, but also their interactions with debt collectors. To remind people of their rights – and debt collectors of their obligations – the Federal Trade Commission is featuring a new video at ww.ftc.gov/MoneyMatters. The video also is available in Spanish.
The FTC’s Money Matters website offers information about avoiding scams, dealing with mortgages and loan modifications, using job placement services, applying for credit and loans, and coping with debt. These materials are available in Spanish as well.
Feel free to pass this along to organizations and individuals in your network.
