FDCPA Cease & Desist
Stop Collection Calls: Look Up the Debt Collector Calling You
Unknown numbers, voicemails about a debt, calls at work. The first step is knowing exactly who is calling and whether the debt is even real. The second step is a written cease and desist letter under the FDCPA, which legally requires the collector to stop contacting you once it arrives.

How stopping the calls works
- Identify the collector and validate the debt. You have 30 days from first contact to demand written proof. Collection pauses until they provide it.
- Send a written cease and desist. The FDCPA (15 U.S.C. § 1692c(c)) requires collectors to stop contact after receiving your written request. Certified mail gives you proof of delivery.
- Hold them to it. After delivery, they may only confirm receipt or notify you of specific legal action. Anything else is worth up to $1,000 per violation plus attorney fees.
