Debt collector scams and questionable practices have only increased after the pandemic.  As consumers we need to stay diligent to protect ourselves and family.  Get as much information from the caller as you can, give as little information as possible,  confirm everything, even if you know the debt is yours AND always get any agreements/decisions in writing. If you are unsure about a call, Google search the company. Make sure the information...
